Love playing piano. Love listening to metal. Hate coriander. Jackie Daytona is my hero.

Oh. Beato is boomin'🥴 But tbf, if my entire perception of "metal" was based on hazy nostalgic recollection & the contents of the "Hard Rock/Metal" section of your typical suburban-mall CD shop (the one across from the Hot Topic, ofc!), I'd think metal was "dead" too.🧐

Fantastic news! Gonna be a long wait, but it's gonna be worth it!🤘

Sadly, no Anders, though ... 🥺 This'll be the first time to them play since the breakup! 😅

Come on Anders, new Diabolical Masquerade album please! I'm sure Dan Swäno will be keen to help.🤘

This is such an incredible album, from start to finish. It’s heavy and dark, but also includes major key moments that are are downright magical. Love it. 🤘🖤🤘

Hmm 🤔 Last time I heard Bush, it was "Glycerine". Errg 😮‍💨 But, this new song 🧐 ... It's as if Katatonia broke into Bush's studio & recorded over all their tracks ... and no one noticed. It's the only logical explanation! 🥴

Gretel is clearly a German Shepherd crossed with a seal. And she has a lot to say about going to daycare. 🦮🦭❤️

I am irrationally excited to see my absolute favourite band - Be’lakor - play in Sydney in October. Fourth time seeing them in 3 years. Only Be’lakor could write a kiss-ass metal song about entomology. 🤘🐜🤘

I’m not normally a huge fan of covers, but this is amazing. CPE Bach was always ahead of his time - I think he would have approved. 🎵🎹🎵

Please, please do yourself a favour and buy a copy of Underrot’s latest album on Bandcamp. It is truly melodeath at its finest!!! 🤘🖤🤘

Underrot debut full-length now available on Bandcamp!

Combines traditional Gothenburg-style melodies and harmonies with the brutality of more straightforward death metal. Perfect for fans of the heavier side of melodeath.

This is some excellent, doom-infused listening for a Monday morning. The soaring vocals set against piano-infused, raw and heavy instrumentals is fantastic. Love it, in the doomiest, gloomiest way possible…🤘🖤🤘

The newest release by Pyres is definitely worth checking out. I love the unrelenting rhythm, harsh yet melodic vocals, and overall grunge-y atmosphere. Looking forward to hearing the whole album!!! 🤘🖤🥁
