Tom's Töp 15 Albums of 2021
2021 was another year in the Covid-19 abyss, one that I had the displeasure of experiencing myself a few weeks ago, with minimal issues luckily. It is an ever-present threat to getting things back to as normal as humanly possible, lurking around every corner, making its presence known. Unlike the majority of 2020, 2021 saw the return of many live shows, including my foray back to them in the form of the Philadelphia portion of Decibel's Metal and Beer Fest back in September. My family and job helped form the foundation of the year as did my ongoing series of Heavy Metal Happy Hours that I run weekly on Zoom, if you were a part of even one of them, just know you have helped me, and I certainly hope it has helped you too. So anyway, a little less about me and more about the music that made 2021 pop, this is a veritable cornucopia of the year with everything from hardcore to goth, death and thrash metal as well. It accurately reflects my spastic sense of music and reality.

Durf's Weekly Workout # 2 : January 22, 2021
Well holy cow, Durf's Weekly Workout is back for Week 2! I'm just as
surprised as you, honestly; I sort of figured I'd be excited about this for
like two days and then go back to pretending I never thought it up as a way to
feel less guilty about abandoning it. But for now I'm still here,
lifting and listening and passing insights on to you. This week was a
little rough; the Durfette has a head cold, so sleep was compromised and
motivation waned. I certainly don't want to complain, because I can't
imagine being pregnant and dealing with all that goes on with that and then being sick on top of that, but
maaaaybe the gap between being pregnant and dealing with a pregnant woman is
sma... (Ed. Note: Durf is trending toward dangerous territory, so to protect him
from himself I've put this Editor's Note over his
probably-correct-but-incredibly-stupid-to-vocalize thoughts on being the partner of a pregnant women. Brutalitopia values its writers' safety, because
there are only three of them and they don't write that much anyway, so we
have to keep them safe. *listens* Ok, I think he's finished.)..ou know? But
sleep or no sleep, I'm committed dammit; I made the lifts and listened to the
tunes, so now all that's left is to recap! Onward!
