"The price is Canadian currency so I'd assume he's from Canada lmfao"
He isn't. But also, I'm not sure what difference it would make if he was?

the albums "an account of a life spent in the rotten heartlands of neoliberal capitalism." just gave them a google annnnd dudes from Detroit, which does actually add-up. canada, not so much. it's still a pretentious way of saying something that'd be described by a normal person as 'from the hood' or 'grew up on the streets.' as someone who grew up in dc if i ever described the area to someone else as 'the rotten heartlands of neoliberal capitalism' they'd probably just walk away like wtf is that guy on about, i certainly wouldn't be taken seriously.

I don't think it necessarily means "from the hood" though (something which canada definitely does have, just look up the downtown Eastside in Vancouver for one of the most egregious examples).
I read it more as to the experience of growing up in a country where neoliberal capitalism has whittled down the middle class to a fraction of its former size and power and where many things that were once deemed fundamental (like home ownership) are now considered luxuries. Where we seem to be regressing to a point where more and more people have to work more and more hours just to afford the basic necessities for survival... You can say it's a melodramatic way to express the sentiment and fair enough there but it's a bm page so I guess I've just come to expect some melodrama ha

the average american just calls it reaganomics...or i'm just getting too damn old(update: i'm the same age as the musician.) and detroits detroit, it's a landscape of boarded up houses and steelmills, it fits the bill for the term but it's just a very internet-brained way of expressing it. it's almost so specific that it doesn't paint the appropriate landscape that people would recognize with a singular term like 'detroit.' idk maybe i'm just a cynical asshole(spoilers:i am) but my immediate reaction to reading that bandcamp sentence was 'oh boy.'
and yeah most of the press statements related to profound lore bands are melodramatic as hell lmao

First song hit at the gym and I kept this on and I really really enjoyed it. Maybe it was just the setting but idk. Seemed like it riffed hard and was interesting. Have to see how it settles in

I like this a lot more than you do, Hawks. Thought the first album was quite good as well.

I don’t really hear the “bland” production in this Hawks. I think it’s pretty great. Sounds deep and layered.

another example where sputknuckles probably give the album a cursory listen based on a low review rating, and in the process miss out on properly discovering one of the better metal albums for the year

Not even close to one of the best of last year agreed.
