In lieu of class material (as there is no class for this semester), I've decided to use this blog as a place to put down my own ideas, thoughts, and questions on the music I'm listening to, and on the metal studies literature that I've been reading. My goal is to get a post a day, because at the moment I have a mental backlog of cock-eyed notions I'd like to explore more in-depth. The format will be a rough mixture of personal blogging, alongside some academic reference and analysis.
