Nocturnal Vengeance - Cursed to Wander (official music video, 2026) raw black metal
Nocturnal Vengeance - Cursed to Wander (official music video, 2026) raw black metal YouTube video by Transmissions from the Dark

Video for the final track from Nocturnal Vengeance's debut EP Ancient Moss in a Veil of Fog.

Classic style, lone wanderer of the woods, armed with naught but a trusty axe and a cloak of formidable presence

No mention of Bandcamp here? Who have done the very decent thing and committed to preventing all ai-generated music from their platform.

Asking labels to add a tag is quite frankly pathetic, and so far from being the required intervention.

lol I got stung by this with a Riverside trial last week. Hadn’t planned on being stuck in bed deathly ill, so the reminders on my computer were all for naught.

bands will say their music is 'raw and uncompromising black metal' then use gen ai artwork

come on, think a little. how can people still be doing this.

Are any LLMs actually any good for coding?

Is there anyone I trust who can vouch for this?

I don’t see why they’d be good at that when they’re terrible at everything else where I know they are applied

It might also explain why so much software does not work any more…might it?

So often when someone suggests something I get the urge to respond with this, but it's so outrageously insulting the recipient has to instantly get the reference or we all perish.

An OId Sad Ghost - Live at Albion Dungen Fest 2026
An OId Sad Ghost - Live at Albion Dungen Fest 2026 YouTube video by An Old Sad Ghost

The full audio of the Old Sad Ghost set at Albion Dungeon Fest.

One of the highlights of the fest - synths, drums, vocals. Great set up. Vocals are perfect.

Was an excellent contrast to the other acts of the weekend, with the only drumkit of the event

the insides of my ears are throbbing in a kind of concerning way. putting it down to being totally bunged up, but it feels horrible!

this bug needs to be gone soon, it is slowing me down no end.

Rewatched Prometheus and Covenant for 3rd time each.

Prometheus is still annoyingly incoherent, Covenant was better than I remembered.

Still they make no sense to lead up to Alien, and they are so aggravating for it, unless a third film pulls off some wildly magical narrative weaving (impossible)

Still so ill, in bed all week, painful bones, headache, ribs hurt from coughing; try and walk around and I’m exhausted. Surprisingly bad.

Binging reels: chefreactions, Jason Pargin, Bron Lewis, Atsuko Okatsuka

Films - Warcraft. Surprisingly good! This orc general has some sage advice for us all.

Managed to complete the weekend just me and my daughter, and I still don’t believe this result. I feel so awful. Whatever this bug is, it’s doing a good impression of the blinding headache, breathless exhaustion, and painfully incessant coughing of our ole foe β€˜vid

This weekend’s poll is between all Haraesis Noviomagi-related band split releases

They’ve all gone too quiet for my liking, but hopefully this poll will put them back on people’s playlists for a while

I feel so thoroughly rough, in such a horribly familiar way, I just don’t believe this result.

Live at Albion Fest 2026 in London, by Coniferous Myst 8 track album

What a set. Was great to see the magic made in person, and to get to chat to him afterwards.

Remarkable how he can set such a resonant mood with just one synth.

Unmother - State Dependent Memory (album, 2026) post black metal YouTube video by Transmissions from the Dark

not just my favorite release of the week, but of the year so far.

Had this on solid repeat since I received it, and it hits hard every play. The title is excellent too

the artwork also reminds me of Joe Sacco's Palestine graphic novel, which I guess is no accident.

It’s the one everyone came to see.

A shame we couldn’t get floor tickets (I hate ticketmaster so much), but it was a good view of it all.

This is really the maximum size venue there should be.
