Senta que lá vem história...
Descobri esta banda por indicação de Padde, guitarrista do Instinct of Survival, nesta entrevista:
"Chainbreaker Records: INSTINCT OF SURVIVAL (INTERVIEW"

Ambas estĂŁo dentro de um subgĂŞnero conhecido como Stenchcore. Seria a sonoridade do Crust Punk em seus primĂłrdios, basicamente: uma fusĂŁo do anarcopunk com metal extremo.
Até hoje, não encontrei as letras deste álbum, mas quando o ouvi pela primeira vez, logo reconheci a citação do livro "1984" (George Orwell) na introdução:
"If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face forever".
Fato curioso Ă© que esta citação tambĂ©m está presente no tĂtulo de uma mĂşsica do Bad Religion: "Boot Stamping On A Human Face Forever", do álbum "The Empire Strikes First", de 2004:

Mas voltando ao álbum "System Overlord", do Swordwielder, percebi que a narração continuava com mais uma frase que não sabia se estava ou não no livro: "The moral to be drawn from this dangerous nightmare situation is a simple one: don’t let it happen. It depends on you."
Pois bem, após uma pesquisa, vi que o excerto na música é nada menos do que um pedaço da última entrevista de George Orwell à BBC (aos 1:46):

Acho bem interessante este exercĂcio de tentar descobrir as referĂŞncias nas mĂşsicas, estejam eles nas letras, excertos de algum documentário, filme, enrevista ou atĂ© mesmo nos acordes (algumas bandas brincam com isso, fazendo clara alusĂŁo a mĂşsicas conhecidas dentro do gĂŞnero ou atĂ© num escopo maior, Me First And The Gimme Gimmes sĂŁo campeões nisto, ao fazer covers de outros estilos, mas sempre puxando uns clássicos do punk rock na sonoridade).

2020: Started recording original songs and uploading to Soundcloud to a positive reception. Original project was to grab people I had worked with in the past and record something with them. Recorded a few songs with Reid playing some bass and guitar parts on various tracks, and he sung Proud Woman. Recorded one song with Kaaren which Reid also played some guitar on.
2021: Worked on some music solo after having some difficulties with arranging recording sessions with others. Undertook the massive task of learning Blender to make the Space Pop music video.
2022: Lost job. Lost a ton of project files from a computer crash. Attempted and catastrophically failed to assemble a band to take #DgarMusic to the live scene. Ended up deciding that if Harry Nilsson can write songs without ever performing live, so can I. Got some part time creative work. Then #Dgar joined Mastodon.
2023: Told awful jokes, posted terrible memes, and promoted my music on Mastodon. Met amazing Fedizens and connected with incredible musicians, songwriters, and artists. Got played on underground online radio stations, created my own hashtags, and grew my audience.
2024: Wanted to get back into recording, so my New Years Resolution was to write a song a month. Did my first collaboration with an artist from another country (@Onj) which was awesome. I ended up breaking my new years resolution after six months and six new songs after family tragedy struck thrice. My mother passed away, and a few weeks later, we lost my older sister in a traffic accident. The stress of all this may have been the reason my younger sister then presented with “Functional Neurological Disorder”, or #FND. Thankfully she is on the road to recovery now, although that road seems very long and difficult. I’m currently dabbling with some YouTube projects while I get my songwriting mojo back, namely #CillasGarden, and a #Valheim Let’s Play.
Future: I’m having trouble writing songs at the moment - I’m not in the right headspace, I guess. I’m jotting down ideas here and there, but I’m also toying with the idea of working on some sort of album. I really want to do a #Satisfactory Let’s Play when 1.0 drops next month too. I also have to figure out how to get more people to listen to my #music because the stats would suggest only about 1% of the people following me have ever played one of my tracks. The stats are on the right trajectory though which, I hope, is an indication that I’m doing something right.
Once again, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to all of you who enjoy my work and share this journey with me. Your support has kept me going, even when all I wanted to do was give up.
Big love. Forever grateful.
