Disfear Announce New Posthumous Album 'The Last Nail', Share "Early Graves"

If you’ve never heard Live The Storm, the 2008 album from the great Swedish crust punk band Disfear, I would advise you to change that immediately. Live The Storm is an absolute beast of an album, and...

Saw Dana Colley a few months back with Vapors of Morphine and it was a top class evening's entertainment. Not Morphine obviously, but absolutely recommended if you're a fan.

Courtesy of Niall @weebeershop.bsky.social first beer of a sneaky two nights on the East Neuk. Don't know what I'd do without that wee beer shop and the ability to get away #tartarusbeers

A can of Dracula's Daughter by Tartarus Beers poured into two glasses.

I knew exactly what he meant, but the way it was written made me imagine it as the frantic madness of prepping a job interview under those circumstances. I can't imagine John's going to need to apply for employment any time soon.

Huh? As a Glaswegian in his mid fifties, this is the first I've heard of this. Every day's a school day.

There's two possibilities here. One is he's complicit, knows he's complicit and just doesn't care because money. Two he doesn't actually understand the meaning of the word complicit. Percent chance of it being two is very low.

I got flu and COVID jabs at the same time a couple of years back and it flattened me with chills and aches for about 12 hours which massively beat long COVID and death.

I'm sure my books are simply fucking and breeding. The bastards.

Down in that there London for a couple of days work and a quick visit to Forbidden Planet has garnered me some top class scares from @richardkadrey.bsky.social @paultremblay.bsky.social and another horrendous line up from @datlow.bsky.social #horror #booksky
