And That Word Was Bastards

Thank you all so much for checking out my new blog. I've had some of these posts here for a little while, but finally decided to move forward with releasing them. I love music immensely and I hope I can share some of that with you all. However, I wanted to really thank my friends in my everyday life who make my stressful life so fun and enjoyable.

Anywho, I know that the posts so far are centered around metal/heavier music but I promise to write up some new posts soon about a more diverse range of genres (I do have a diverse taste I swear). Till then, I made this playlist for my friends of music I truly think they could all dig. If you are reading this: give the playlist a try, it's got some chill stuff on it. Some of the artists featured I intend to write about too, so stay tuned for that. But with that being said, here's the start of a new music blog that I hopefully won't mess up. Follow it up and enjoy! More articles soon. -Nights Off
