Episode 63

Greetings! Fall has returned and with it my mood has been buoyed. This month’s installment was nearly tardy as we’ve been experiencing ailments in the AE HQ so my attention had been directed there. However, all is well in the household so I have been able to provide you with another ~hour’s-worth of musical filth.

Front half is pretty heavy on the metal tentpoles of this project and the second half is steeped in punk and its numerous offshoots. Revolutionary stuff, I tell ya. I think you’ll enjoy it.

Not much else to say but thanks as always for any and all support. I will return sooner than usual as October also features my annual dark ambient/dungeon synth/whatever episode. See you then.

The artists and their respective tracks are as follows with each track time  noted in the parentheses after each track:

Side One:

01) Ulver – “Hymne VIII”
02) Dusk Shrine – “Atavism” (04:35)
03) Death Vanish – “From Down There” (10:10)
04) Order of Decay – “Vows of Death” (17:05)
05) Crypt of Kerberos – “The End of Time” (22:35)
06) Somnol – “Necrosis Call” (26:00)

Episode 60

Greetings, faithful listeners. This episode marks the completion of the fifth cycle of the Anxiety Eternal psy-op. I hope this missive finds you well in this hellscape we call the present day.

To my tinnitus-addled ears this episode is as close to a representative example of the AE ethos as I’ve been able to muster for quite some time. This project is largely an of-the-moment exercise that isn’t always as diverse as I’d wish; time will routinely preclude me from checking as many genre boxes as I’d like while maintaining cohesion. Hopefully the sonic trail I lead you down isn’t too uneven.

With that being said, thanks to any and all support these past five years. I will return the first Wednesday of August with the next installment.

The artists and their respective tracks are as follows with each track time  noted in the parentheses after each track:

Side One:

01) Numb – “Two Faces”

06) Hagetisse – “Salvation for the Unpure” (21:30)
07) Putrid Temple – “Scorned Progeny” (25:50)

Side Two:

09) Mythic – “Winter Solstice” (32:00)
10) Hell – “Inscriptus” (35:35)
11) Bad Breeding – “Contempt” (40:30)
12) Severed Head in a Bag – “Mr. Dixon” (46:00)
13) Ritual Howls – “A Thoughtful Beast” (49:05)
14) Teenage Jesus and the Jerks – “I Woke Up Dreaming” (54:50)

Episode 54

A new year and another chapter in the book of Anxiety Eternal. If you’re interested in my opinions on the releases that were released (and actually heard by your selector) in 2023, feel free to mosey over to my Instagram (@Anxiety_Eternal) for such frivolity. If not, make no such detour.

This month brings more synth and electronic foul play than recent episodes while still retaining the expected viciousness and cold detachment I assume listeners expect of this project. Not much else to add, I’ll let you decide the merits of this installment.

Episode 35

Four weeks have past and I’ve returned with a new collection of songs to sully your day (month?).

June’s chapter finds itself heavy on the slower scale of tempos as a general pace. A few sections reach rollicking heights, but this is largely a lurch. Hopefully this is to your liking. Coincidentally there’s a strong Canadian contingency this month, so cheers to my neighbors to the North.

So without further ado, I’ll bid you adieu. Thanks for the support and we’ll cross paths again the first Wednesday next month when the weather’s even worse.

Another one in the books. It’s been a curious experience to compile the last two episodes while completely sober. I’m curious as to whether there is a noticeable difference to a listener. Meh.
