Metal Monday CCXXVIII - Mortals I

9/10/2018

It has been very busy and exhausting as of late and, though it was a holiday, I typically post on each Monday I simply found myself too tired. However, the Metal is too strong and we must return and behold its monstrous glory. This week, continuing from where we left off from the concert showcase, we have Wolf King. I find myself quite suprised to not find them on a few of the metal websites I frequent for lyrics and information yet I believe that makes them all the more intriguing and rare. Having witnessed these madmen on stage, I can say that the have a prowess worthy of praise. The band plays so well together and unleashes an onslaught at a moments notice, which is just what this week needs. Steel thyselves as we journey into this week with Mortals I from the Loyal To The Soil album wrought to us by WOLF KING!

THE MAD BARRON

QUOTES I ADMIRE
"A wilderness, in contrast with those areas where man and his own works dominate the landscape, is an area where the earth and its community of life are untrammeled by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain." - from the Wilderness Act, 1964

"I owe my solitude to other people." - ALAN WATTS

“I think I could turn and live with the animals, they are so placid and self contained;
I stand and look at them long and long.
They do not sweat and whine about their condition;
They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins;
They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God;
Not one is dissatisfied-not one is demented with the mania of owning things;
Not one kneels to another, nor his kind that lived thousands of years ago;
Not one is responsible or industrious over the whole earth.”
― Walt Whitman

"In the ancient world, people placed heavy stones on the graves of the dead so their souls would not wander and inflict the living. I always thought this was simply the practice of superstitious and primitive people. But I was about to learn that the dead can hover on the edge of our vision with the density and luminosity of mist, and their claim on the earth can be as legitimate and tenacious as our own."

- Dave Robicheaux (In The Electric Mist With Confederate Dead)
