Speaking of The Heavy Metal Memoir set in my hometown (whose actual name I have long forgotten), I kept thinking about it when I watched Todd in the Shadows attempt to grapple with the question of how we know metal is 1. uncool and 2. unlike other seemingly related music genres, not relevant to the world of music criticism.

I was first exposed to this harrowing question as an 18ish metalhead when I read The Heavy Metal Memoir. I simultaneously had hurt feelings while also trying to be like 'why should this matter? I don't care anyway!' Possibly it helped that the main period he covers in the memoir is the entire pre-grunge era, which from my position in the 2000s felt increasingly irrelevant.

#i say it was set in my hometown but really the guy whose memoir it was grew up there but left for the big city #anyway i mainly remember he loved ratt and hanoi rocks #bands i'd not even heard of when i read the book #he joined a few bands one of which was called cool hand luke but none of them went anywhere #there was a part where at time of writing he got some friends to do top 10 best metal albums from the 'classic' (pre-grunge) metal era #and one of them refused to do 10 he only put physical graffiti by led zeppelin and nothing else #so yeah metal is kind of like genre fiction while other genres are literary fiction #(the todd video i'm talking about is the metallica and lou reed one)#look i'll always be into the metal scene on some level but i think metalheads need to be able to laugh at themselves more #and if we all kept in mind we are silly then we would have more fun #like memento mori except it's someone whispering 'remember you are silly' into our ears all the time

RIP Marjane Satrapi, a huge artistic inspiration of mine. Her comics are incredible, sparse, so expressive, each panel tells you so much in a few simple lines. I learned so much from her as a young person when I read her autobiographical works, both about the complex politics and history of Iran, and about how incredible the medium of comics can be.

Thank you Marjane Satrapi. The world is worse without you.

Someone I follow posted art, then a few posts higher up someone else I follow posted a reblog of that art with the same amount of reblogs but less likes. This is the new reblog feature nobody wanted, isn't it? The one where each reblog makes a new post? Ugggggh.

#as an artist with no following this is just...well i probably was never gonna get a following on here but now #there is simply no chance of me getting a self esteem boost from a lucky reblog where someone has a lot of followers #followed by a nice scattering of likes #the likes will all go on the new post if there are any- never to bother my self esteem again #thanks guys #i feel the same about posts in communities tbh #people react with the emoji react thing that's like discord #but to actually interact with the work in a way that is recorded long term you have to go to the post manually #and you can't jump right there either you have to scroll #riiiiight around when i had just started my art blog this happened. thanks tumblr

breechingbaby

fuck! such cool tracks, I never heard any of them before but all of them tingled my brain in such a good way.

i wake up with the first track in my head which means I end playing it a bunch of times before breakfast. The second is to open up the hips for summer baby!! Orchestra Baobab is such an entity i don't think it needs an introduction.

I tag @bddybby666 @revcleo @invisibletwinsisterwhofollowsyou @cjamswriting @zveroyadina @vvhatifhumanshadtails @cowgirls4breakfast @prettyfacebadcharacter @reneesimone @greenfishnets show me your stuff!!<3

Thanks for the tag :) lovely musics all around I don't have much specific in rotation at the moment but I love this track and video, there's not much I can think of which celebrates romany and other roma British people

this song repeats in my head every now and then

I saw this before I knew of what it's parodying/building off (Did you ever get a ride on the tractor) once again the track is great (I've not heard such great use of the default yamaha sounds) but the video is special

@saxifraga-x-urbium @bisthefairy @shandrydan @wild-at-mind @ccrowsiie show me some tunes :)

wild-at-mind

Hell yeah music posts!! I listened to every track and loved all of them, awesome. I agree @revcleo, so little stuff that celebrates British Romany. It's an amazing video. (Also- I see the Sheppey bridges making a couple of appearances :D The big bridge actually has a sign that says unsafe for pedestrians and horse drawn vehicles and to take the lower bridge, not everywhere you see that specified!) My tracks:

The first 2 because they cronch in my brain just right, something about the sound. The 3rd one just because it is lovely and someone made a really good English lyrics translation designed to have the same rhythm as the original so it can be sang in English. It's about being a hawk. (It's a cover and the original is by Hungarian folk band Kaláka.)

Thy Catafalque – Embersólyom: English translation. Original lyrics in Hungaria

I won't be tagging anyone because I feel I don't know you guys on here like that and also because I just got off a massive tumblr break and have no idea whose still around. But anyone can do this if they would like, I wanna see (and hear)! :)

#music #thy catafalque #madre del vizio #belgrado #fun fact- both belgrado and madre del vizio are/were german bands but the songs are in polish and italian respectively #because the singers/songwriters were from there #but also my sister who has lived in germany told me that over there there's not really any expectation that music will be in german #radio music i guess would be in english usually but if you're a band in a country already used to music not in your language #then why not have your singer just sing in their language? that's my assumption why this happened 2 times with different languages #madre del vizio also the band that started my obsession with nightbreed records #Youtube

My tumblr break was amazing and made me feel great!

They should invent a method of asking for reassurance that nobody secretly hates you that doesn't make people secretly hate you.

this reply deserves to be here.

#going to try and notice these more

I'm less bad about it now but when I was younger I would do that weird thing where you make a friend and get close to them and assume you know everything about them (you must do, you are so close right?), and then assume that they will stay the same forever. Then when you realise you actually no longer know them that well because you don't see each other that much due to life circumstances and they have changed preferences, identity etc over the years, you get all shocked! But in reality, it's normal to change over time. And, as my therapist recently suggested to me, life seems to be a constant state of drifting friendships and losing old connections. (Sadly :()

I am still afflicted with this for people I met when I was still in the thick of this phase, which I think I finally got rid of in my mid-20s, for people I met after that at least. For older connections, I need to constantly challenge myself about this issue. But something that might help remind me of how not to be occurred over last weekend when my siblings and I went to our parents for Easter. I had mentioned cats a few times over the weekend and one day when out and about we saw a cute cat and I took a photo. My sister suddenly bursts out with 'since when do you like cats?!' And i'm just like...??? Is it a problem?!

It is true that when we were growing up I didn't much care for cats, but in the past few years I started really loving them. In my sister's mind I guess i'm still the same person who she lived with growing up who doesn't like cats, and me changing away from that person had affronted her enough to be weirdly accusing. It was so weird of her that I think I will always use it in my mind as a reminder of how not to be!

#interestingly i think this old hangup of mine is why i don't really like engaging in online fandoms #you get this idea of a blogger (who you don't really know just follow) as someone who will always be obsessed with x #but it turns out most hardcore fandom people change fandoms regularly so the steady slip into posting about y and forgetting x #it stresses me out no end #honestly i know exactly why i'm like this it's because of a specific person from my pre-teen and teen years #we don't need to go there but honestly it sucks that their influence is still with me 10 years after i last saw them #formative years you know how it is :/

I forgot how interesting the colour choices in Watchmen are. It's the perfect combination of the colour limitations in comic printing at the time it came out, and a colourist (John Higgins) who really, really knew what he was doing.

#watchmen #john higgins #happened to be looking at it this evening and realised how little it uses primary colours #and how few colours tend to appear in each panel #inspirational
