I write this from a place of disgust for those in the Metal and Punk communities who are allowing National Socialist Black Metal in our scenes! I write this from a place of disillusionment for a community that I have been a part of for over 40 years. Do I not belong here because of the color of my skin? In the words of Depeche Mode, “People are people, so why should it be? You and I should get along so awfully.” I write from a place where the new DSM-V album is Life is Done which comes out on Sept. 8th via THIRD COMING RECORDS is the soundtrack to me realizing I will never give up or give in! As I blast their song “Your Armour,” I envision myself dancing with my ancestors on the graves of our downpressors! This duo has manifested a collection of eight pulsating Nu Beat anthems that will empower the listener to say Fuck the World! What I love about DSM-V’s music is that they are able to put humanity into the machine songs they create. This means that on songs like “Flash of Light,” you can feel their empathy while moving and grooving at the same time. Underground dance music like this is good for my mental and spiritual health! Join us as we celebrate the release of DSM-V Life is Done! Before I let y’all go, just know that their song “Into Nothing” is such a big tune and makes me so happy that I’m breathing air on this place we call Earth!
