I can’t get enough of QotSA right now. Nearly their entire catalogue has been on repeat all month. They have a really great range of sounds, and it’s been a joy to jam to.

This little corner of our dining room is starting to turn into a place for music, so I printed some wall mount brackets to hold what we’re playing on the wall. Love this vibe so much!

I’ve been vibing to GameChops music and just discovered that their music is sold with a creative commons license. Really cool!

Wait, I’m seeing music that’s from 2023 that sounds like 2001. Rap-infused metal, drop-C tonality.
…is Nu-Metal cool again?

Myrath popped up on my feed today and I’m really diggin’ it. It’s a curious mix of sounds. Instrumentation that reminds me of Septicflesh, but with vocals that are more akin to Queensryche, with some badass slap bass underneath. I guess the Septicflesh bit is because I listen to Communion pretty often, and that album has some themes from the same part of the world as Myrath’s general sound. I guess according to Every Noise at Once, Myrath falls under “Arab Metal“.
Feeling like Hep Alien over here with my “x meets y” description lol

I can’t stop listening to this album. There’s something about the 1800’s era Americana theme, combined with…just really catchy melodies. I’ve actually listened to it so much that it’s caused me to watch documentaries about “Ohio Fever” and “The Year Without a Summer”.
Funny, since we just came back to Ohio after our 4 years on the road. Maybe we had Ohio Fever, too.

There’s something about Dark Cabaret that I’ve really been enjoying lately. It uses interesting instrumentation, is always at least mildly theatrical, and in the case of American Murder Song, the 1816 Americana theme is really doin’ it for me.
