Walking home, I decided to listen to some Iced Earth, basically because I haven't listened to them in yonks. While a few tracks deep into The Glorious Burden, I looked them up on Wikipedia: they've been busy lads, putting out albums every few years. Excellent, I thought, lots of stuff to catch up on. Sadly I also found out that Jon Schaffer, the only permanent/original member, was wrapped up in the attack on the US capitol, and while not explicitly "pro-Trump", has definitely gone headfirst into the world of conspiracy fantasies.
Fuck.

Only Iced Earth album I had was the original one. I revisited it recently and while it is quite definitely not very good it has major nostalgia feels so still gets a pass.
It's just popped into my head that someone specifically recommended something to me, but now I can't find it. So if it was you, 1) I'm sorry, and 2) if you can remember what it was, post it again and this time I'll be less of a twat.
