## Quotes

* Bonfires burning bright, Pumpkin faces in the night. I remember halloween! Dead cats hanging from poles Little dead are out in droves
** "Halloween", 12 Hits from Hell (1980)
* They called us walking corpses Unholy living dead. They had to lock us up Put us in their British hell
** "London Dungeon", 12 Hits from Hell (1980)
* The corpses all hang headless and limp, Bodies with no surprises And the blood drains down like devil's rain, We'll bathe tonight.
** "Skulls", 12 Hits from Hell (1980)
* All I wanted to say and all I gotta do Who'd I do this for? Hey, me or you?
** "Astro Zombies", Walk Among Us (1982)
* I got somethin' to say I raped you mother today, and it Doesnt matter much to me As long as she's spread
** "Last Caress", Static Age (1982)

## Quotes about Misfits

* It’s impossible to overstate the influence of the Misfits’ horror punk image on AFI, Alkaline Trio, My Chemical Romance, and basically any other goth-inspired punk band who hit it big in the ’90s and ’00s, but the influence of the band’s music was arguably even wider than that of their image. They had plenty of songs that sounded as evil as the band and their iconography looked, but at least half of 1982’s Walk Among Us predicted the exact sound of the pop punk boom. [...] It’s hard to think of a major punk band who haven’t covered the Misfits at some point, and it’s easy to see why all these musicians are so fond of them. Without their influence, the ’90s/’00s punk explosion wouldn’t have sounded the way it did.

# Meat Puppets

Meat Puppets are an American rock band formed in January 1980 in Phoenix, Arizona. The group's original lineup was Curt Kirkwood (guitar/vocals), his brother Cris Kirkwood (bass guitar/vocals), and Derrick Bostrom (drums). The Kirkwood brothers met Bostrom while attending Brophy Prep High School in Phoenix. Meat Puppets started as a punk rock band, but like most of their labelmates on SST Records, they established their own unique style, blending punk with country and psychedelic rock, and featuring Curt's warbling vocals.

## Quotes about Meat Puppets

* Meat Puppets were never your average punk band. [...] By the time they made Meat Puppets II, they really didn’t care about remaining within anyone else’s definition of punk rock. On [that album], they embraced their love of bluegrass, jazz, psychedelia, the Grateful Dead, Frank Zappa, and really whatever else piqued their interest. The result is an album that’s punk as fuck, regardless of how little it sounds like the Ramones.

# Candlemass (band)

Candlemass is a Swedish doom metal band formed in Upplands Väsby, a suburb of Stockholm, in 1984 by bassist, songwriter, and bandleader Leif Edling, alongside drummer Matz Ekström. The band has had a defining influence on doom metal, with the epic doom genre itself taking its name from their debut album Epicus Doomicus Metallicus. Along with Pentagram, Saint Vitus, and Trouble, Candlemass has been recognized as one of the "big four of doom metal".

## Quotes about Candlemass

* Candlemass are synonymous with the doom metal genre and, in particular, for coining the phrase "epic doom metal”.
** Tom Campagna of Loudwire (November 13, 2024)
* Sweden's Candlemass helped reintroduce the lumbering power chords of Black Sabbath to an entire generation of post-New Wave of British Heavy Metal and post-thrash metalheads, almost single-handedly writing the handbook for the modern doom metal movement in the process. Emerging in 1986 with the landmark Epicus Doomicus Metallicus -- the LP helped coin the genre -- the band issued four more influential albums before ceasing operations in 1994.
** Eduardo Rivadavia of AllMusic
# Pentagram (band)

Pentagram is an American doom metal band from Alexandria, Virginia. They are noted as one of the pioneers of heavy metal, particularly of the sub-genre doom metal. As such, they are considered one of the "big four of doom metal" alongside Candlemass, Saint Vitus, and Trouble.

## Quotes about Pentagram

* Washington D.C.’s answer to Black Sabbath, Pentagram are one of the most influential bands of the doom metal genre. [...] The epic guitar work of Victor Griffin helped set the standard for what American doom metal became, especially since the band had been active since the 1970s. The most polarizing member of the band, vocalist Bobby Liebling is very much the U.S. version of Ozzy Osbourne, but without the money or sustained success. the potential for doom metal dominance was never more than a few riffs away from this band’s grasp. Liebling is a soulful singer who complements the vile evil of the guitar tones present. Pentagram is a doom metal staple.
** Tom Campagna of Loudwire (November 13, 2024)
* In the history of doom, despite being incredibly hard to get hold of at times, their music is essential (KISS once came to them looking to buy two songs in the ’70s). The fact is, guitarist Victor Griffin simply doesn’t do bad riffs, and this rolling bit of heaviness is a humdinger, filling with Sabbathian dread and take-no-shit muscle.
** Nick Ruskell of Kerrang! (December 10, 2020)
* Pentagram are one of the most enduring and influential underground bands in metal history with a trademark doom-laden style that's often compared to Black Sabbath. Laudatory reviews were abundant for 1987's Day of Reckoning, 1993's Relentless, and 1994's Be Forewarned, and they were bolstered by Pentagram's relentless touring and intense performances. Despite near constant lineup changes, singer Bobby Liebling kept the band alive.
** Eduardo Rivadavia of AllMusic
# Death-doom

Death-doom (also known as death-doom metal or doom-death) is an extreme subgenre of heavy metal. It combines the slow tempos and pessimistic or depressive mood of doom metal with the deep growling vocals and double kick drumming of death metal. The genre emerged in the late-1980s and gained a certain amount of popularity during the 1990s, but had become less common by the turn of the 21st century. In turn, death-doom gave rise to the closely related genre of funeral doom as well as to the more melodic, gloomy and romantic gothic metal.

## Quotes about death-doom

* The line between doom and death metal can seem to some as simply a matter of tempo. But what needs remembering is the intent. As titles go, Rotting Misery from Paradise Lost’s Lost Paradise debut set out the distinction clearly. It also defined a new subgenre: doom-death.
** Nick Ruskell of Kerrang! (December 10, 2020)
# The Doors

The Doors were an American rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1965, comprising vocalist Jim Morrison, keyboardist Ray Manzarek, guitarist Robby Krieger and drummer John Densmore. They were among the most influential and controversial rock acts of the 1960s, primarily due to Morrison's lyrics and voice, along with his erratic stage persona and legal issues. The group is widely regarded as an important figure of the era's counterculture.

## Quotes about the Doors

* The Doors were among the decade’s most incendiary groups musically, lyrically and visually.
** Jordan Blum of Loudwire
* The Doors were firmly planted in a vague space between the end of “traditional” hard rock music and the birth of psychedelia.
** Em Casalena of American Songwriter
# The Monkees

The Monkees are an American pop band that released music under their original incarnation between 1966 and 1970, with subsequent reunion albums and tours in the decades that followed. Assembled in Los Angeles in 1965 by Robert "Bob" Rafelson and Bert Schneider for the American television series The Monkees, which aired from 1966–1968, the musical acting quartet was composed of Americans Micky Dolenz, Michael Nesmith, and Peter Tork, and Englishman Davy Jones. The band's music was initially supervised by producer Don Kirshner.

## Quotes
### Michael Nesmith

* We may be the only group legitimately fighting the thing which most groups claim to be totally anti, and that’s establishment. I mean, we may have been the only one to have won. Because we actually did. We hadn’t seen a royalty check or anything. We were on top; we were number 1. And we finally went in ... and we said ‘you do it our way, or we quit’. And that’s all there is to it.
** Pop Chronicles, Show 44 - Revolt of the Fat Angel: Some samples of the Los Angeles sound. Part 4, 1968 interview.
* I never really left. It is a part of my youth that is always active in my thought and part of my overall work as an artist.
** August 8, 2012 Rolling Stone interview

## About the Monkees

* Here, I'm going to make you a big star ... and you don't have to pay any dues. ... For that, you're going to get no respect from your contemporaries." ... To me, that was the cruelest thing.
** Phil Spector on The Monkees, Pop Chronicles, Show 44 - Revolt of the Fat Angel: Some samples of the Los Angeles sound. Part 4, 1968 interview.

They were also known for their albums, including their self-titled debut album, The Family That Plays Together, Clear, and Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus.

## Quotes about Spirit

* Spirit was more than just as good as Pink Floyd; they were in a category of their very own. The band was incredibly creative and had no qualms with experimenting with jazz, pop, and even proto-metal at times.
** Em Casalena of American Songwriter
# Winter (metal band)

Winter is an American extreme metal band from New York City. They take their name from the Amebix song of the same name.

## Quotes about Winter

* Their influence can be heard on pretty much any death/doom band worth their salt. Winter were always closer to punk in mindset, even if the music was doom, and their sound lives on not only in those who have ripped them off over the years – that list is long – but in guitarist Stephen Flam’s new project, Göden, too, which takes its name from a Winter track and sees Flam play an array of custom-made guitars he co-designed himself.
** Jonathan Horsley of Guitar World (March 21, 2022)
* Along with Paradise Lost, New York outfit Winter’s only album Into Darkness helped draw a line for doom between the blues of Sabbath and the more traditional metal leanings of bands like Trouble, and somewhere much, much more grim.
** Nick Ruksell of Kerrang! (December 10, 2020)
* [Winter] carried [the] monochrome crust-punk aesthetic [of Amebix] into their musical outlook with a bleaker-than-thou sound heavily informed by the Hellhammer/Celtic Frost paradigm.
** Jonathan Horsley of Guitar World (March 21, 2022)
# Antonine Maillet

## Quotes

* The history of Acadians has never been written down as see by its people. Its been written by historians from outside. These historians sometimes had reason not to write the truth or didn't know the truth or didn't know the small things which become the big things, the inside story, what we in France call la petit histoire. History is made by the kings and lords, But la petit histoire is made by the people.

# Soccer Mommy

Sophia Regina Allison (born May 27, 1997), better known by her stage name Soccer Mommy, is an American singer-songwriter from Nashville, Tennessee.

## Quotes

* ["Your Dog"] comes from a feeling of being paralyzed in a relationship to the point where you feel like you are a pawn in someone else's world. The song and the video are meant to show someone breaking away and taking action, but at the same time, it's only a quick burst of motivation. It's a moment of strength amidst a long period of weakness.
* Getting off social media was the greatest thing I could have done in terms of my relationship with fans. That sounds really counterintuitive, but when you meet people in real life, the experience is often really pleasant. I can’t remember the last time I had an actual bad time, except if someone was being a little strange or taking too long. The part that can start to make you feel really alienated is sitting on Instagram and interacting with a stranger. I’m just not that type of person. If I’m not on social media, I speak to maybe five people on a daily basis. I just don’t have any desire to be any other way. [...] It gives you such a negative view of what fans are thinking or what they want from you. [...] Flooding yourself with strangers is too much.

## Song lyrics

* I don't wanna be your fucking dog That you drag around A collar on my neck tied to a pole Leave me in the freezing cold.
** "Your Dog", Clean (2018), as quoted in Album review for Clean, DIY Magazine

* Mary has a heart of coal She’ll break you down and eat you whole I saw her do it after school She’s an animal.
** "Cool", Clean (2018) as quoted by DIY Magazine
* I am fake it till you make it in a can And you have a calmness that I could never understand
** "Royal Screw Up" (2020)
* I try to break your walls but all I ever end up breaking is your bones And the bruises show Standing in the living room talking as you’re staring at your phone It’s a cold I’ve known
** "Nightswimming" (2020)
* I lost myself to a dream I had And I’d never give it all away But I miss feeling like a person
** “Still,” Sometimes, Forever (2022) as quoted by Pitchfork
* I’m barely a person Mechanically working
** "Unholy Affliction," Sometimes, Forever (2022) as quoted by Pitchfork

## Quotes about Soccer Mommy

* This soft music is not precious. It’s gnarly and intense, like the heart itself.
** Jenn Pelly of Pitchfork
* Whether you’re reminiscing about late-night make out sessions in high school or surrounded by plenty of “cool” girls in your city, Soccer Mommy’s introspection is something that defies age.
** Ilana Kaplan of The Independent
* Some of the magnetism of her pop-inflected indie rock comes from the winding shape of her melodies; in their unpredictable motion, they often resemble counterpoint written to a root melody that’s been erased.
** Jayson Greene of Pitchfork

# Adrianne Lenker

## Quotes

* I think I’m learning how to release every day. Recognizing that everything you encounter, touch, or love can become part of you, and in essence never disappears, as long as you can recall it to memory or heart. It’s all so connected that we lose everything, but also, we never lose anything.
** Interview with The Fader, November 2020
* It doesn't feel like it's just originating from my brain. It feels like I'm following an invisible thread of intuition, from one choice to the next... maybe I don't even fully understand once I've written it, but it just feels right. And I just trust that. And then over time, it reveals its layers of meaning to me. That's a mark of what I feel is a good song. It keeps me wanting to play it.

## Quotes about Lenker

* Lenker isn’t the room-swallowing presence that [Frances] Quinlan is, but she more than makes up for it in commanding songcraft, which skews dynamic, dissonant, and placid without ever changing its sepia tone.
** Dan Weiss of Spin
