I am moving to the debut album from ANTHRODYNIA (Aug 15 2025) My kind of death doom! And the way it lulls with its immersive atmosphere is WHAT’S UP. Highly recommended if you like the cavernous bunch Spectral Voice, Ossuary, Blood Spore. #Metalsky

I am moving to BLIGHTED ELDER (June 27 2025) This ravaging black metal has kept its grips on me since I first heard it around its release. Recorded in 2 sessions, the front vs. back half is special. A truly must hear USBM for 2025! #MetalSky

🎧 OAKEN 'From The Bonfire' (Sept 29 2025) This 5-piece post hardcore/sludge is more than just gruff vocals. Laying out an expansive atmosphere w/synths, equal parts intense & delicate, the crushing arrangements will surely rouse any Inter Arma, Oryx, and FÓRN fans.

As type 1 diabetes haver for 25 years, I can never be TOO hopeful but damn this is very exciting. SCIENCE.
A patient with type 1 diabetes has begun producing his own insulin after receiving a transplant of pancreatic cells. For the first time, islet cells have been edited so they wouldn't be rejected by the patient, removing the need for immunosuppressant drugs.
