Now we're in trouble.

We finally blew a gasket in the comments over the issue of religion and saving the West from its own downfall. Now there's a raging brawl going on, but it's an intelligent raging brawl, so we're just watching it for now...

See what happens when you interview "alternatives to modernity" publishers?

1. Why do you require us to send an email to you after we register?

It's a filter. 30+ accounts a day are registered and most of them use "realistic looking" usernames and email addresses. I can tell that "superxanax" is a fake account, but others are not as clear. When you send an email, I know you're a real person at least. It also helps filter out the really confused. This system is far from perfect and in fact kind of sucks, but it's better than the option, which is relying on an unreliable spam catcher to filter all the spam.

2. What do I do if I get a rejection email and don't deserve one?

Re-register and email us using the address displayed on your screen after registration.

3. Isn't there a better way?

Not that is not vastly more time-consuming and unreliable, at this time.

4. The spam catcher has my posts. What do I do?

Wait. Twice a week the queue is checked, usually, and good posts dumped and bad deleted.

5. Why do spammers target us?

They are opportunistic parasites. We are high-profile for certain keywords. And this site has been around forever. As with all things in nature, you have to guard all of your mucus membranes against invading parasites.

1. Thank you to all who are working with us on DLA 2.0

2. We need a team of people to manage our presence on Facebook. The ultimate goal is to have a metal news/activity feed there. This involves about 15 minutes a day on Facebook publishing the good stuff to a page.

3. We are looking for writers on traditionalist, metaphysical, spiritual, philosophical and political topics for Amerika.org. Email brett -at- amerika -dot- org to begin.

4. We are also looking for a strong leader to coordinate our infoterror/troll team. This team finds lies and destroys them. It specializes in social media trolling. Apply within.

It would be great to have these represented in Audiofile:

Arktos just put this on sale. It's $7.50 for the hardcore book plus $9-10 for shipping to the USA. If you're in the UK, it's much less.

This is basically a hardcore at paperback prices not including shipping, but in this case, includes shipping. Buy one for every member of the whole family. The translation and introduction to this book came from the wider ANUS-CORRUPT-AMERIKA community.

Interesting recording, if it's for real. It's Mayhem in a less finalized state, meaning that it's still a mix of primitive grindcore-like underground metal (think Necrovore and Repulsion in a blender) and leftover heavy metal elements. Some parts seem particularly inspired by early Morbid Angel as well. It's a shambles, without the unifying focus on rhythm that made the final result so beautiful; rhythms tend to be very basic and as a result stilted and jerky. Screams are great, of course, and it's fun to watch a masterpiece evolving, but we're seeing how the later influences of Vag and Hellhammer may have helped shape this from an awkward, boxy first attempt into a masterpiece.

Now...

We plan for DLA 3.0

Our goal:

• To engender academic study of underground metal
• To articulate a theory and culture of underground metal
• To conserve and nurture that which endures
• To popularize true metal values and deny false ones
• To support all national and regional forms of underground metal

Decisions (actions) define us more than words or "feelings":

I’ll take a different path: experience numbs. The more you have a certain experience, the more you are dulled to it. This is the real reason most people loathe office work; it’s not so much boring in itself, but the repetition and lack of change and lacking of possible changed outcome is soul-crushing.

It’s the same way when you go to a party. You may remember the first ten names, but after that, you’re awash in so many similar memories that it all runs together. Soon you are numb to new names...Sex is the same way. You can view it as an experience, in which the context defines its meaning, or you can treat it as a commodity, where more (and more convenient) is better.

Probably not a popular topic, even here, but someone had to say it: virginity/chastity rock. Making difficult choices in life rocks. If you are a man who lives his whole life having loved, married and bed one woman, you've beat everyone else to a realm of true clarity and happiness.
