This website's dark theme is ass

It's better than red hyperlinks on a white background. .

Me when I see someone using the light theme of the website.

I usually do use it for most things, but...

This website's dark theme is ass

I don't know why Finland, Sweden, and the Netherlands are full of metal queens, but thank god they are

Why is buying a chair so hard? Been researching stuff for like a week now.

Check Respawn. It's a gaming chair, but I got lower back pain from playing hockey my entire life and it was a lifesaver. I don't game at all in it, I just have it for back support and comfortability.

Battle Beast is one of the best live bands in the world right now. They are absolutely thrilling on stage, if anybody reading this ever gets the chance to see them live, you should jump at the chance because they are almost peerless.

I was scrolling my Youtube feed and this Cale Makar video caught my eye.

Only that's not Cale, its Big Z.

@McMetal - went to the Maiden concert on Saturday, and this band opened up for them. The Hu.

Mongolian folk metal band, not a word of English in their music. Kind of a death metal-ish, Viking war chant (or Mongol war chant, I suppose), heavy deep bass/drum vibe, with melodies played on an instrument called a Morin Khuur (horsehead fiddle).

It was unique, certainly different, even a bit strange......and I really liked it.

Yeah, they're one of the most unique bands in metal history. A real testament to how diverse the genre can be.

I ended up missing the Maiden show sadly (had to watch my budget after all the shows I went to this year). I'll catch them next time, it sounds like they're going to do another retro tour of just 80s material.

I would like that a lot. They were good this time around, but I could quibble with the set list. Only two songs pre-1986 (Somewhere in Time).
