This album is rotting my brain.
Ruin - Plague Transmissions (Vol.1)
These days, I find myself moving from death metal to black metal. Other than atmospheric black metal (ABM), I've never been a fan. The low production value has always turned me off. But I think the rising quality of ABM has slowly pulled black metal upward. There is a lot of great, higher production black metal to be had today. Of course, it's been around in pockets for ages (ex: Rotting Christ circa early '90s). So my migration has been made somewhat easier.
While I was searching for one of my white wales (Батюшка – Литоургиiа - found it!), I stumbled across this gem. I fell in love. It's worth a listen.
Heaven In Her Arms - White Halo (Full Album)
My god, Foobar2000 is an amazing piece of programming. Your capabilities are endless.
ROTTING CHRIST - Ze Nigmar - זה נגמר
If I was @th3j35t3r, I would've unsub'd from this joint a long time ago. I don't have patience for fools. I'm amazed at his resilience.
That Stinky album is pretty good, btw.
I'm listening to a hardcore band called Stinky. They're from France.
Regardless of all the political and pandemic bullshit, this is a good time to be alive.
I need like a 50' cord for my headphones. Pausing the music to walk to the bar is bullshit.
I'd buy so many more bands on vinyl if the shipping cost was more reasonable. I know, currently, it is what it is, but it seems that Bandcamp could bring some muscle to bear in this area. They're already offering bands the ability to price in multiple currencies ($, €, CAD, etc.). Hopefully this is on their radar.
Bandcamp has paid almost $23 million to artists in the past 30 days, which doesn't include Bandcamp's cut. That's awesome and I love that artists can make more money selling though Bandcamp. Hell, they even help bands print to vinyl by shouldering some of the upfront costs. However, they really need to figure out a way for bands to ship internationally. It's crazy to pay €15.00 for the vinyl and €17.00 for shipping. I understand it, but it's nuts.
