A few Nuages (clouds) over the garden today, but we still grilled delicious ribs, corn and sweet potatoes on the barbecue, and I am leisurely listening to Oscar Peterson beautifully play! Happy Sunday, friends!

Guelph’s Nepenthe are a phenomenal band. Their blend of doom metal and black metal is absolutely gorgeous and reminds me a lot of groups like Woods of Ypres and Agalloch. It was a pleasure to join them at the Jimmy Jazz for the release of their new EP, ‘The Fading Promise of Tomorrow’, which you should definitely check out.

When I think that last Sunday, only last Sunday, I woke up with my girl in my arms, it hurts a bit. Because today, I'm back home and she isn't here, and I'm still jet-lagged, and I caught a cold and I miss her heaps. I miss her terribly, for I do love her madly. But when I remember the joy I felt, waking beside her a week ago, watching the sun rise from our balcony as she leaned into my embrace, spending a wonderful Easter Day in her delightful company, and when I listen to Oscar play Love You Madly, I feel absolutely lucky!

Guelph was easily the highlight of the tour for us. The Jimmy Jazz is an awesome venue with a great crowd. Twin Banshee once again tore it up for Nepenthe’s EP release that night.

Hello!

My name is Hannah, and I fucken love music. Music has been a really big part of my life, and I don't think I would be here if I didn't have music to turn to (as incredibly dramatic as that sounds).

So I made this blog because I really wanted to rant about music and what it means to me. All of it. Why I like it, when I discovered new bands and genres and where I was in my life, and how it makes me feel.

With that being said, let the music play.

UPDATED SIDE NOTE: When I first started this blog, I was doing hella research for the bands and albums and was going into somewhat extensive detail about them – nearly providing a fucken wikipedia page. Then I lost interest in the blog because it felt more like a chore to dumb down the music as if it were being reported on the fucken news to a bunch of squares. So since trying to reignite the love for this blog, I'm not gonna dumb shit down for nobody. I like what I like because I fucken like it. Simple as.

PEACE.
