The New Wave Of Alternative Retro-Metal

First there was light. In long years past, the gods created music, one of the most powerful weapons of expression. The human nobility leapt upon this music and monopolized on it as well. But, indeed, great artifacts resulted, and the greatest of these symphonies are the stuff of legend. In nearer history, there were innumerable intelligent peoples to whom this great manipulation of music was never available. These people were ripped from the land that was their heart, and in their new world they were forced to endure things almost unspeakable. But during that time, they plotted a revolution. In the underground, they developed their own form of music, the most human form, which sang of the manipulated and their plight.

These two forms of music existed for several years, each relatively unaware of the other, until the human music revealed itself. It took years, but eventually the power of the first and the humanity of the second met in fusion to create that which we call Rock. The heroic bands of this genre that today carry on the torch of the truest, purest rock in this age are paid their homage due on this blog that is dedicated unto them.
