PositivelyBleak Interviews: Mongrel
Mongrel: Momma was a headbanger and poppa was a punk rocker!

Deaf Metal
Let’s talk about your ears.
No seriously, they’re the most important part of being a metalhead. They’re also probably the most abused part of every metalhead (except for you hardcore kids, you guys really need to watch out for your teeth in those pits). So why don’t more people take care of them? ♠ Continue reading…
The Beast Speaks: That’s My Bloody T-Shirt
Editress’s note: my beau and confidant, who goes by S. McManbeast, is a fellow freak of nature and rabid horror fanatic. He wanted in on the blogging action, so you’ll see occasional guest posts from him under the header “The Beast Speaks.” Have at! ♠ Continue reading…
