Tuesday Runaround: Moebius Stripped

HuffWatch: The comic creator mixtape.

Becky Cloonan: I love metal. And since everybody is (or rather, should be) acquainted with Iron Maiden and Sabbath (RIP Dio) I'll list some essential albums for people who are looking to get into ambient pagan semi-acoustic neo-folk music with eternally grim and frostbitten black metal roots! This is atmospheric, melodic black metal at its finest, and these are all albums I go to again and again.

My job (drawing comic books!) requires me to read scripts, layout pages, and occasionally write, so a lot of the time I'm listening to music that is more atmospheric. That and I'm not an angry mohawked teenager anymore, so it's nice to find bands that embody qualities that I love about black metal, but aren't afraid to whip out their acoustic guitars and bring it down from 11 to maybe five or six when the song calls for it.

BBCWatch: Moebius on BBC4.

Tuesday Runaround: Moebius StrippedThis is Computo the Comic Link Conqueror speaking. I come for your women. But for now I merely collate comic-related bits and pieces online. One day I will rule. Until that day, read on.

They say I am a work in progress. The fools.
