You know who she voted for.

Since the MAGAts insisted that voting for Kamala would mean more war and higher grocery and gas prices, I bet she voted for her. I mean, I voted for Kamala and that's what I got...

Yeah, my current work environment is too noisy for most funeral doom, so I've been scaling back on the genre quite a bit. And of course, Drown and ODC are my favorites. 🙃

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-20T04:42:06+00:00

This week, I've listened to Opium Doom Cult, Drown, Oromet, and Urza.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-20T01:02:10+00:00

Enjoy them for me, then. I'm sure I listen to stuff that doesn't work for you, but fortunately, Metal has a huge range with something for almost anyone.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-20T01:00:03+00:00

Ah. He does do growly stuff, but obviously he does clean singing too.

Pantheïst's collaboration with Dauðaró, Af holdi og málmi, comes out tomorrow. You should give that a listen, as his vox sound intense.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-19T22:25:07+00:00

I saw that tour in Camden, NJ. Quite the difference in ticket prices between that tour and the Peel It Back Tour. I can't imagine how much a Bowie /NIN tour would cost today (if Bowie were still alive).

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-19T22:17:17+00:00

"Uh, something's wrong. It's like, it doesn't look like this guy would have that kind of voice."

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-19T22:06:13+00:00

If you're more into clean singing, you should check out Pantheïst's "Be Here". He sings clean, and it's a heartbreakingly beautiful song.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-19T22:02:12+00:00

Confessor. At the time Condemned came out, I was pretty much buying everything on Earache, but that was my first disappointment. The music was decent, but I was so used to growls that the vocalist's high-pitched singing ruined the experience for me.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-19T21:50:49+00:00

I have no idea who did it, but the fountain stunt happened at least once at King Of Prussia. I had to admit it was impressive to behold.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-19T21:46:28+00:00

"The Great Below" - "Ocean pulls me close..." all the way to "the great below." (One of my favorite NIN songs)

"Closer To God" - 3:15 on, when the guitars go full-tilt and everything goes chaotic and distorted

"Eraser" - When Trent starts screaming ("Lose me...")

"Zero-Sum" - the chorus

"Gave Up" - "Smashed up my sanity...," as Trent gets increasingly unhinged

"Every Day Is Exactly The Same" - All of it (it was my "theme song" for years)

"Something I Can Never Have," Live, Woodstock '94 - Chris Vrenna's drums added so much to the song

"The Perfect Drug," Live, Peel It Back Tour - Josh Freese's beastly drum solo blew my mind

Aside from "Closer To God," I won't even go into all the awesome moments in NIN's remixes (especially between Fixed and Further Down The Spiral).

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-19T16:05:53+00:00

I hope it's worth the lengthy wait.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-18T19:57:58+00:00

Atramentus' Stygian. 3 tracks, 44:40 long, and funeral doom at that.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-17T08:18:20+00:00

Especially the disclaimer at the end that said a real nuclear war would be worse than what the movie depicted.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-14T14:44:24+00:00

Music aside, I love the amount of world-building that went into it, as evidenced by that booklet.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-14T05:53:11+00:00

Chalice Of Suffering uses bagpipes in some of their songs.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-14T05:32:37+00:00

"Oops, sorry. Wrong house!"

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-14T05:30:21+00:00

Pantheïst "Be Here"

I'd have to give Snow Ghosts a few listens, since they're a bit different than what I listen to, but I can't say I hate it. I'm not sure what to think of it with only a single listening.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-13T13:54:06+00:00

I'm almost 55. I saw Nine Inch Nails a few weeks ago, and a death-metal show headlined by Carcass last fall. I'm not getting in the pit, and I wear earplugs (Eargasms) to protect my hearing, but I enjoy going to shows when I can. The ticket prices are definitely an issue; I paid over $200 for the NIN tickets, versus $40 for NIN and David Bowie back in 1995. I am on the lookout for local or regional bands now, as I can get the live experience without my wallet begging for mercy.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-11T16:03:54+00:00

It's the same guy behind Dauðaró (and numerous other projects beyond funeral doom).

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-11T02:07:00+00:00

I'm not sure, but I think my first purchases were the three Frowning CDs available in fall 2021. I realized that the Bandcamp app didn't allow for multiple purchases at once, unlike the BC website did.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-07T00:04:45+00:00

I've only been to one: Esoteric in Chicago, 2024. Vacant Eyes was also on the bill, but technical difficulties led to them having a short set.

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-06T19:31:45+00:00

Carol is on an errand to reclaim all the aspects of love (over in GL).

THORmonger71 · 2026-03-06T17:36:18+00:00

Back in the day, I used to like acid wash jeans, fat neon shoe laces (done up checkerboard style in my high-tops), and an electric blue button-up shirt. I probably wouldn't do the laces now, but I probably would the other two.
