Lately, I’ve been working a lot outside. We’ve built a pergola, covered a concrete cylinder used as a well with stones and old bricks… and I’ve listened to a lot of music. Metal music. Specifically, post-metal music.

The latest Neurosis album made me (re?)discover a playlist that contains some gems. I hardly appreciate some of them, but definitely have others on loop.

Jesu is one of my favorite discoveries, and Boris were quite a surprise too!

It’s particularly juxtaposing to listen to this kind of music in earphones while birds are chirping a few meters from you, in the shadows of linden trees on these beautiful spring days… but maybe they’d appreciate it. My girlfriend does not, though. For sure.
