Awesome Live Videos: Type O Negative, Live Stockholm 1994

Imagen
What can we say about  Type O Negative ? Their unique flavor of Gothic/Doom Metal made them one of the biggest bands in metal for many years and they will always be missed. They mixed doomy vibes, gothic melodies, synths, organs and the awesomeness of their riffs and their heavy sound like nobody and they will be always  missed, specially their bass player and leader of the band, Peter Steele. There aren't many voices like his in the history of, not just metal, but rock music. This month, April 2020, the year of the corona, is the 10th anniversary of Peter passing away. We cannot go out so what better way to celebrate his life and his art that watching a cool as fuck performance:  Type O Negative live in Stockholm, 1994 . Great sound quality, cheers to whoever uploaded this to youtube!

Moons , hailing from Pennsylvania, catched my attention since the first riff I heard. After listening to their song AA/Jo...

Spotify Playlist III: Celebrating the death of Christ

I live in a place where a lot of the people are lunatic Jesus followers. In Easter (Semana Santa here) they spend the whole week doing parades with real size dolls of Jesus and his mom, some of them are hundreds of years old and should be in museums but the church own the pieces and they let their followers to march with them all over the city. They collapse the city, you cannot go anywhere, you cannot drive, you cannot access to certain areas... It's trully awful, and all the time with that terrible 'Cofrade' music in the background and people yelling 'king' to Jesus and 'pretty' to Mary... Probably all that crap is one of the reasons why I got so much into metal being so young, still a wee boy, and why extreme metal really cautivated me when I was a teenager... And I'd been hooked to it since then. My preferences generally are death metal, brutal death and grindcore bands, not that many black metal bands got my attention. Generally I find thei...
