Who does that? Is Dante's Inferno next???

 

[JiveTurkey]

Almost there.

It's a hair less "modern (?)" imo but I love it nonetheless

It’s easier to read with music in - idk why lol. This book is HARD to read too, so anything helps, especially where black metal is dissonant and I can drone that out

Too on the nose but this book is gonna take a bit so I have to do that at some point. The first two chapters were all literally in Hell so the atmosphere called for dissonance lol

Has that mid-scooped 90's Mesa thing in spades!!


Funny to me how 90's metal has such a distinct production/sonic signature.

I don't recall hearing it so distinctly back then, but now it is instantaneous. For me!

Adult enrichment? College courses?



I think it's cool as fuck you are diving in. Big fan of Yeats, Milton, Homer,
and epic poetry. It's like the Prog of Literature.



You'll be speaking and conversing in Old English dialect before you know it.


Th cool thing for me in reading those kinds of works is the realization that
we are all already fucked, the world is really going to end, and we are all going to die for
thousands and thousands of years. Every generation has its own Apocalyptic Fever,
so to speak.

Just adult enrichment, it’s been on my bucket list. Once I got the cadence down, it’s really beautiful to read
