The Origins of Post-Black Metal

I don't really like "webzines", and have to be really really bored to look at any of them,
but at least some don't call themselves fanzines, because fanzines I only understand as a xeroxed / printed paper magazine without needing a professional look, or large finances / the intrusion of big business to go with it.
Fanzines were created by fans not to make money, but spread the word of good underground bands..
 ---------
At the start I did not like this new "post-black metal" 'black metal shoegaze rock' 'Blackgaze'(?) sound, but got used to it.

Kind of interesting to read.

I remember Fleurety – Min tid skal komme (1995) being weird and jazzy, but have not heard it for years, so, would never have thought to include it in this genre.

cassettes

A lot of nerds like to act sophisticated and post on forums that cassette tapes deserve to be phased out, "like 8-tracks, betamax, vhs, etc..." because of  "the horrible hiss and muddy sound...my tapes getting eaten... "

uh...
If you don't clean your tape-deck or VCR with a tape cleaner, or use a demagnetizer if you need that also, then whose fault is it if your tapes are eaten ?

It is these kind of people who didn't care that vinyl and cassettes had stopped being manufactured by record companies and replaced by CD's in the early to mid 1990s.

What they forget to tell you while saying how superior CD's are, is that some PRO CD's suffer rot just like certain brands of CD-R's, and stop being able to play.

IF a CD suffers a particular scratch, it no longer works. How is that any better than tapes or vinyl?

In the future, these same types of bipeds will say, and probably are already saying that CD's should be phased out, and iTunes and streaming only is superior.
 uh,
But if your "Cloud" disappears, or you can not access it, or your computer hard-drive dies, then what good was going that route?

..........
been lazy...have some  chrome tapes I will be selling / trading soon, (after they are dubbed!)
Here are the tape covers for some...

The Heart of the World

 

The heart of the world (2000, b&w): A parody of silent Soviet propaganda films

 

The Heart of the World from Claire McKeown on Vimeo.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Heart_of_the_World
The Heart of the World is a short film written and directed by Guy Maddin, produced for the 2000 Toronto International Film Festival
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0260948/
 
This short silent black & white film was played on TV a lot, 15 years ago, on movie channels in Canada.

Reminds me of the classic movie style of Metropolis
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metropolis_%281927_film%29

Motorhead's song Metropolis written by Lemmy after he watched the film.

TWO SUNS in the sky.

photo from http://newsone.com/992065/earth-may-soon-have-two-suns/


I don't know about any of you, but every now and then, for at least 1 or 2 years, there appears TWO SUNS in the sky.

For a very long time, I didn't care and forgot about it as soon as I was inside, or thought the fainter image in the sky was a reflection of the moon.

Now I see videos that say that "Planet X" also known as "Nebiru" is reaching closer to our planet Earth.
I have heard that story since the late 1990s, and why should I believe that, when nobody including NASA will even show us clear videos/photos of the moon's surface, which is a lot closer?

Whatever is happening, it is being ignored by most people.

where exactly is Sodom and Gomorroah ?


The term "Sodomite" was originally used to refer to an inhabitant of Sodom -- an ancient city  located somewhere on a plain in Canaan.

It  later became a legal term to refer to criminal sexual acts.
the sin of Sodom and Gomorrah was homosexuality
men who wanted sex with men.

celebrities , musicians, actors, YouTubers , radio and tv and podcast hosts, etc etc etc
like to laugh at anyone that believes in a "God" that condemns homosexuality.

They are blind if they can't see that the past century that led to tolerance of it and made "legal" in many places, is likely just a step before pedophilia is also made "legal" as you rarely hear of homosexuals speak against groups like NAMBLA.

Here's a video with speakers from one of the most famous churches HATED in the USA that simply warn you. and the idiots in the audience laugh.


It appears the majority of this planet's population is turning filthier.
IF there is no God and no after-life punishment, then nothing to worry about.

IF there is a God, then will it look good on those that laughed at Him ?


I used to think from past evidence that Sodom was buried under the Dead Sea.
Checking today for some links, new proofs are it wasn't in that exact spot, but further south..
