A gloriously petty, unplanned dive into Russian deathcore. No insights, no regrets (well, maybe a few). Just one night of blast beats, beer, and questionable decisions.

A delirious journey through saxophone-fuelled black metal chaos. Maladie’s Symptoms IV is equal parts seduction, violence, and pure exhilaration.

I came home from a black metal festival, questioned my entire life, and got emotionally therapised by a friend holding a salad. Just another Tuesday.

From flutes to fog, riffs to ritual, Fortress Festival Day Two pulled me apart—until Agalloch stepped on stage and made it all worth it.

Part IV of my Fortress Festival diary: I panic through my first-ever live interview, barely survive, and descend straight into ritual chaos and fire-breathing black metal. Also, I walked home in socks. As one does.
In The Pit · 31/05/2025
Part III of my Fortress Festival diary finally brings the music: camera fog battles, emotional black metal breakdowns, interview panic, and the one regrettable vegan burger that ruined everything. Live shows, first rows, and full chaos.
In The Pit · 30/05/2025
Before the riffs came the chaos: airport meltdowns, British road rage, and Scarborough’s cobbled death traps. Fortress Festival 2025 starts here—with caffeine, cameras, and questionable wardrobe choices.

What starts with a concert video ends in domestic pasta delusions. A deeply unserious, wildly specific emotional spiral about Peter Steele.

A live EP full of goddess fury, distortion worship, and no clean edges. Avowal’s Lessons in Technical Difficulties is loud, raw, and beautifully unhinged.
In The Pit · 17/05/2025
Fortress Festival, birthday dread, and one absurdly small suitcase. A metalhead’s messy countdown to catharsis on the English coast.
