Myrkur - M


I LOVE this. It reminds me so much of Katherine Blake and Miranda Sex Garden, a band I miss dearly. M is definitely making it into my year end list. Sonically haunting, dark and beautiful; a storm that tears the heavens asunder and drenches the world below it in darkness.

We Can Never Go Home...



... is quite easily Shawn's favorite comic of 2015. Wanna know why? Read this week's edition of Thee Comic Column, over yonder on Joup.

David Bowie - Black Star



Mr. Brown sent me this at least a week ago and I've only just gotten around to watch it. New Bowie is always a good thing, and with what I keep hearing about the upcoming album of the same name (Out Jan 8th, 2016) being the 'weirdest' Bowie record in a long time, I for one am more than eager to have this in my hands.



Some observations:

I LOVE the return to the sax. Saxophone was once synonymous with Bowie - for me at least - and I feel like he hadn't really found a way to incorporate it into the new sound he's been toying with since 2005's Reality. No longer the case. Hopefully there'll be more on the record.

I also LOVE the return to utilizing synths and some of the overall aesthetic he experimented with in the 90s during his "industrial" phase.

This is weird as fuck and I LOVE it.

Indie Comic Descent of the Dead...




... is the topic on tap in this week's Thee Comic Column, over yonder on Joup.
