There are bigger things to be angry about but tech's pivot from "no more ads if you pay" to "fuck you, pay and get ads anyway — and by the way the ads are so much worse now" always feels outrageous

If your Dad is a billionaire & you want to be an artist you have to do some Scott Walker shit. With a safety net that thick, it's a sin to half-ass it. You better be hiring an entire division of sumo wrestlers to slap their bellies as the percussion track on your next single.

Truly one of my favourite books about music. It would be too easy to view this as a book about metal or something. It isn't. It's about what's heavy, and as the book goes on to illustrate, that takes on many forms, in many genres. I re-read it annually and STILL find new discoveries in there. 🤗
