Imagine someone so infatuated by a band that they have every different pressing of every album the band made.

If some band sucks, you're going to have to find out about it for yourself, because I don't have the interest in issuing warnings.

If American forces leave Afghanistan, the Taliban is going to do what to America? Don't say you're worried about what they will do to the Afghan people. If that was America's concern, America's operational presence there would be much different.

Death metal uses a lot of white face paint and black hair dye to make its point. I quite enjoy this genre for its intensity, extremism and underlying irony: You have to be alive to play it and listen to it.
