My friend the ever inventive Ben Woodard and Zachary Price have teamed up with Aspasia Stephanou to create Helvete, a journal of black metal theory.
Many observations, in random order:
• Scholars of all kinds, not simply the professors, are now in the business of creating top notch journals, without the burden of receiving imprimaturs from bureaucratic functionaries
• Black metal is seriously powerful and I recommend to anyone to listen to Burzum's Filosofem, as soon as possible. For instance.
• This work is deeply congruent with the ecological era I'm now calling the time of hyperobjects. No wonder the recent London symposium was called Melancology.
Hi Tim, the link to Helvete is incorrect: it goes to some other site for a previous post.
