It is quite one of my favorites… managed to catch a performance at a RenFest not too long ago.

Nicholas, I don’t want to know any artist’s political views either, but they tend to like to let them be known.

Loreena’s last CD came out a couple of years ago and the insert took an obvious ‘tone’.

I tend to get much of my music secondhand, or through non-physical means (purchase online and DL, etc.), so I tend not to get many of the inserts. The few I do have end up lost pretty quick… although in the case of one like that it might have just found its way to the nearest disposal unit.

Man, I’d never heard of Heather Alexander, but that chorus line intrigued me, so I’m listening to it now. Wow!

Every time I discover someone new whose work I like, I mentally crouch down, awaiting the inevitable stupidities.

The combination of these two things amuses me to no end.

I’ve always been fond of McKennit’s music, but I kind of make a point not to bother learning about my favorite artists’ political views… too many times I’ve learned they’re all raving Libs and been sorely disappointed. So I enjoy their product (and yeah, no complaints about how much money THEY’RE making, and who else but the raving-Lib musicians were the first to scream bloody murder at the whole Napster ordeal? Not that they aren’t right, but it’s rather hypocritical old chap) and ignore pretty much anything else they have to say.

Ironically, I’m listening to “March of Cambreadth” by Heather Alexander at the time of this post. How can anyone with an interest in anything of this sort not like a song whose main chorus line is “How many of them can we make die?”?

I have both in my collection.

What did you expect? Anyone who believes getting naked out of a smoking hot sauna should be followed with a roll in the snow has to be a little off.

It is invigorating though. My sauna has rocks pulled from Lake Inari for heating. Should I even talk about what that means? Spirits baby.

What is funny about Loreena-type moonbattery is her exploration of ancient – quite violent – cultures, with a desire for diversity and understanding and whatnot, that would have gotten her roasted as a shishkabob back in the ancient day.
I still have the old Germanic tribal thing coursing through my veins. *strikes a ninja pose*
