Another Moon Poem

Never have I seen the moon so dim
Her face so pale and noble
Shining for all the oceans to admire
But no more.
The mighty hand of space
opens up like the wings of a raven casting shadows across the sea,mountain, and valleys

But as the cold blanket of darkspace
descends upon my moon
and paints her worshipers
a darker shade of color
one by one, the stars emerge
As if to arrive from distant shores
Galactic travelers equipped with torches
set to light our way.

Now they sit still
Awaiting our departure.

Worshipers, Arise!
The light of the moon is fleeting.
Like birds you must fly
Towards the tides of space.

So that all the oceans we contain,
may come to life.

Ride the Lightning vs. Master of Puppets

The Best Metallica Album People will have their own opinions about which is the best Metallica album. For the most part, people gravitate towards Master of Puppets followed by Ride the Lightning. Listing ...And Justice For All, Kill 'Em All, or the Black Album as your favorite typically leaves you the odd person out. I personally believe that Ride the Lightning is better than Master of Puppets. The musical leap from Kill 'Em All to Ride the Lightning is staggering. Metallica went from a straight ahead and fun loving thrash band to quite the sophisticated progressive band. They did this without losing an ounce of power. Hell, they gained power. On the other hand, Master of Puppets is really just a refinement of everything accomplished in Ride the Lightning. There wasn't much in the way of musical innovation. There's also a thick atmosphere that permeates Ride the Lightning as the lyrics focus on the fear of death and dying. Master of Puppets focuses more o

Muh Aztec Ancestors

Actually, as much as Mexicans love to believe that they where Aztecs, they where most likely the slaves to the Aztecs. Hell, they probably helped Cortez destroy Tenochtitlan. Come to think of it, the Aztecs weren't even native to Mexico. They came from somewhere up north. Utah, perhaps. They arrived, colonized, conquered,and enslaved dozens of other tribes. It was these subjugated tribes that joined ranks with the Conquistadors. So there you go. The Aztecs where evil colonizers and oppressors and the Conquistadors where liberators. Stop larping as an Aztec and start larping as a Conquistador.

Synthwave 2023

Synthwave 2023 Another exciting year is in the books. I will now highlight some of my favorite releases from this year. A synthwave highlight for me this year was getting to see Midnight Danger perform live just in time for Halloween. I've been to a few synthwave shows before and they where fun. But, I've never been to a popular artist show. Midnight Danger absolutely rocked the place. Anyways, every album on this list is perfectly capable of rocking the place. Mega Drive - 200X I'm always eagerly awaiting a Mega Drive music release. I truly feel he or she can do no wrong. My favorite album is still Sequencer, but this may very well be a close second. I'm convinced that it surprasses both 198X and 199X and narrowly edges out Neuroframe. Neuromancer - Hardwired This is nothing short of incredible. It's like Neuromancer took parts from all of your favorite darksynth masters, mixed them all t
