So, yesterday I was reading Questionable Content (don’t worry, the content isn’t very questionable) and came across this strip. This comic is kind of like a soap opera for alternative/indie-music nerds, so I have no idea why I started reading it.
Anyhow they referenced a hardcore-ish rock band named “Mastodon” who put out an entire album devoted to Herman Melville’s Moby Dick.
I kid you not.
It’s called Leviathan and here’s a torrent. There’s way (way) too much yelling for my tastes, but the music isn’t that bad, and … I’m getting off topic here. It’s a freaking death metal album about Moby Dick. Check the lyrics (you won’t be able to understand the vocals anyway).
Crazy.
I’m also updating my Personal Ramblings sections after I post this. Some fun stuff happened so check it out.
