People have been eating bread for more than 10,000 years, and now, in less than a decade, it seems like everyone is suddenly allergic to glyphosate

I think that concept has died politically. The local democrats sound like 2016 Trump in their campaign ads. Their policies that they try to implement are fatally flawed, but their current rhetoric is playing to the fact that Average Joe Everyman wants a country with sovereign borders.

Still want to know who thought adding 15,000 people to a town of 60,000 people would go off alright. Allegations of pet eating aside, I'd hate to need emergency medical care.

#gm frens. Happy Monday, make it a good week.

My in-laws had a field day yesterday and Pete Kennedy (formerly of Farm to Consumer Legal Defense Fund) gave a talk on the history of raw milk, food safety FUD and food freedom. Raw milk is real. The other stuff just ain't.

It was a hard slog for us (mostly my wife since I'm at work most of their waking hours). Eventually it just clicked, first the 1s, eventually the 2s. My wife's family (mom and 3 sisters in law) all said "they'll get it when they're ready," I guess my MIL thought my oldest brother in law would be going to kindergarten in diapers. So it must be an age old fight

#gm. Christ died to save sinners. Christ rose to conquer death. Blessed is the name of the Lord. Happy Sunday frens

In a basement in Austria, there lived a black metal band. It was not a black metal band filled with satanic themes and a low recording quality, nor was it a Norwegian band that stabbed people or burned churches in it's spare time.

It was Summoning

And that means Tolkien inspired lyrics, majestic atmospheric soundscapes, and a much needed change of pace for black metal.

Welcome to Metal Transmitted by Relays. This month we're featuring metal bands influenced by Tolkien.

And the time has come to dive into Black Metal, but don't be scared, it's not really as black as you've been led to believe, a fact I largely credit to Summoning.

They borrowed the foundation of their sound from the Black Metal subgenre but rather than focusing on anger, despair, or anti religion themes, they wrote songs about Middle Earth.

https://youtu.be/JvzY5aQDe70

They also recorded the first metal song written entirely in the Black Speech of Mordor.

https://youtu.be/phjb-PLK6DI

Their career has spanned over eight albums in which they've established a deep Tolkien nerd credibility far beyond any other band I've ever come across. They also pioneered the atmospheric black metal scene in inspiring several other bands to contribute to their particular style of black metal.

But if you're a fan of the classic black metal sound, they have an album for that too.

The "With Doom We Come" album almost gives me AOE2 soundtrack vibes (a compliment, I love that soundtrack).

I listened to this yesterday

there's a bit of discussion about metal vocals as voice acting rather than singing, I feel like that comes through in the almost narrative delivery of the lyrics in the songs I've hit so far. Cool stuff

I love your Saturday metal notes. I've been listening to new stuff throughout the week based on what you're sharing.
