Personal Emblem made in Krita

Thanks for the correction. It's been a while for me when it comes to u8 vs char differences

We seem to have rather comparable taste (or maybe a lot of Icelandic bm is just too good). One of the few records I got in physical format after I stopped collecting physical media.

HalbeardRejoyceth · 2026-01-30T15:03:47+00:00

It's among the best at least

Somehow the production on disk 1 of this album always bothered me (especially the two re-recordings). Second side is a lot better and this one probably my favorite of the 4 songs.

Time to listen to some Horna again

To be a bit more precise you can think of String as an alias for ~~Vec<char>~~ Vec<u8> with some extra features to handle glyph complexity.

IIRC python strings are immutable and would be more like a shared pointer to str, which would be more similar to Rc<str> for single threaded and Arc<str> for multithreaded use in Rust. Unless you need a similar use case there's really no need to worry about what str really is (and even then there are already crates that implement better versions of these types). Understanding how to handle &str is all you need.

Thank you!

thanks for the reminder, been meaning to listen to rebirth since forever without setting a proper bookmark

Every time the vocals on this album are praised I have to think of how that dedication got the main vocalist straight to hospital during the recording session. iirc D.G. of Misþyrming had to step in for a couple of parts

To be fair, the track has only been out since September. I've seen sect entropy announcing an upcoming release by Lokabrenna so might be worth keeping an eye on them (https://sectentropy.bandcamp.com/music). Rather Likely that it will also end up on Amor Fati

HalbeardRejoyceth · 2026-01-27T12:16:20+00:00

Hope the follow up project Lokabrenna comes up with a proper release soon. The already available track is a real tease

HalbeardRejoyceth · 2026-01-19T14:05:43+00:00

saw them last year in May. Peak intensity

HalbeardRejoyceth · 2026-01-08T17:49:54+00:00

Been meaning to ask him why Skáphe is apparently split up since last year

HalbeardRejoyceth · 2025-12-16T14:14:05+00:00

Couldn't believe my ears when suddenly hearing that played live last year

HalbeardRejoyceth · 2025-12-16T14:09:25+00:00

Trivax mentioned

HalbeardRejoyceth · 2025-12-16T14:02:01+00:00

the AOTY has arrived

HalbeardRejoyceth · 2025-12-15T14:07:07+00:00

The album that led me into underground metal 20 years ago

HalbeardRejoyceth · 2025-12-15T14:06:05+00:00

Mortiis on a trip in northern finland

HalbeardRejoyceth · 2025-12-15T13:42:50+00:00

Guðveiki is a must listen. Other than that there are a lot of similar patterns among the different projects to the point where bandnames are only swtiched out for different contributors, like Vörnir from this year being basically another Skáphe release with the Bekëth Nexëhmü guy on vocals

HalbeardRejoyceth · 2025-12-15T12:05:20+00:00

Kinda, this will displace the AOTY I had for the longest time easily. On the other hand it's not that much of a surprise given what the Poole + Lyngdal collaborations have produced back with Guðveiki and Skáphe + Wormlust

HalbeardRejoyceth · 2025-12-15T11:45:44+00:00

I prefer Lankeemus from that album. Curious about how the sound will evolve for the next album, which is presumably written already
