Happy birthday, Ric!

Happy boxing day sale day!

Happy birthday, Ken!

This kinda defies categorization, but I like it. Melodic death metal meets delta blues and some other stuff along the way?

Amaranthe ticks the Taylor Swift and gothic boxes I think, not so much the atmospheric.

I've recently discovered a couple of good ones in a genre that I didn't know existed: Myrkur - if Loreena McKennitt played black metal, it would sound like this. Summoning - ambient black-folk metal. Damn, so good.

Yikes. Stay safe, Ken.

Happy birthday!

Teef are usually okay in derby. The most common injury is fracture of tibia and fibula.

Best wishes to Suzy! My dog Thomen has a broken tooth that needs removal, so he'll be getting surgery in a couple weeks. We were hoping it would calcify on its own, because he doesn't do super great with anesthesia, but no luck, and it's definitely causing him pain. In other news, it seems like my entire family is joining a roller derby league. Alaric has finally found a sport that speaks to him, and the rest of us are coming along for the ride. I'm probably going to be a ref, since the local league isn't co-ed.

Happy birthday, Gene!

Have a great birthday, Bryan!

Hot damn, Jacob! Congrats!

I just saw Ne Obliviscaris destroy everyone's brain in Winnipeg. They're heading south and east. You in their path need to check them out.

Happy 50, Mikey!

Yeah, holy hell, what a solid album. Are you going to see them on this tour Bryan? I'm hosting them in Winnipeg in a couple weeks - so excited! edit: Also, the drummer is, like, the best drummer I've ever seen. I have no idea how he manages to coordinate what he does.

I don't need this. I like my HD600. I don't need this. I like my HD600. I don't need this. I like my HD600. I don't need this. I like my HD600. I don't need this. I like my HD600.

The new album by Samael is really amazing.

Happy birthday, Peter!

First time ever crying when a celebrity I've never met dies. Dammit Gord. My whole country is hurting bad today. https://www.thebeaverton.com/2017/10/nation-really-use-gord-downies-songwriting-help-process-gord-downies-death/

Thanks, dudes! It was a mostly good day, capped off by a get-together with some buddies and a game of Munchkin.

Happy birthday Carl!

Happy birthday Peter!

Hey Vicki, happy birthday! Hope to see you this winter when we're in FL.

One of each.
