Garrett Hendricks: Northwest & SouthBound

Throughout the Album I wanted to do nothing more than dance with aloud and proud group of friends. To be lost in my own world. I felt passion. Wielding emotion within a rhythm. You could say there was a hypnotic Siren call within Garrett’s voice. At the very least, he has a message to share, and initiation to bestow. Puppeteer-ing us all into various states of flow, freedom and serenity. Regardless of the theme within the songs, there was a peace that was encouraged to be felt. A steadiness to life and the approach to emotion, inspiration and human connection. I thoroughly enjoyed the works that Garrett Hendricks has created. He is the real deal. Not only is he sweet on the eyes, but he is sweet on the ears.

Niv Snaggletooth Covers Los Lobos with New Single ‘Will the Wolf Survive?’

Welcome Ghouls, Demons, and Fellow Wyrd Ones! This Dark Moon, We are planting another Venusian Seed! A seed planted by the hands of our Libran Man, Niv Snaggletooth! As this lunar transit initiates a spark of creativity in Aries, with a lovely handoff to the embodiment of Taurus. I love the synastry with the Libra and Taurus essence harmonizing in true Venus Fashion. I find the overall character arch within the Life of Niv to be beautifully in alignment. And this is only intuitively based off his Sun Sign, his intentional story I will be sharing below, and the Soul felt within the Exclusive listening experience of his New Single. I will admit to my ignorance of this song. I was slightly shocked to discover it was a cover of a 1984 release from Los Lobos. I had missed that memo when I connected with Niv to cover this release. (LOL) With that, I unknowingly signed up for the Musical Adventure of a lifetime.

Popville Masquerade Ball- A Night with Jean Saint Lazarus, Kate Cosentino and Kelley Cole!

Welcome Ghouls, Demons and Fellow Wyrd Ones! I had the absolute pleasure of being invited to
Popville Music’s “Masquerade Ball- A Night with Jean Saint Lazarus, Kate Cosentino and Kelley Cole!”
It was a lovely Spring Nashville Evening. I had never been to the East Room before. Or not knowingly. I
have driven by The Cobra a thousand times. I have stopped by the Alternative and Occult Shop “Hail” a
handful of times. This can go to show, how directionally challenged I am. Or how often I Passenger
Princess my way through Life at the hands of my Beloved. Or maybe it highlights what a nightmare
Gallatin Ave truly manifests to be. I will digress. As I finally secured a free (rare) parking spot, I began my
Final Candle Vendor Evening and my First Rock Oracle Drop in with Popville Music.

Maria Magdalena’s New Single ‘Smell Me I’m Running’ Is A Mystical Journey

In this modern era, in some small realms of the world, a woman is mostly able to ponder these questions. She is able to act out what it may mean to be a free woman of this world. A woman free from the biased lens of our inherited patriarchal mold. What if we were written without the venom that is the Male Gaze? Not the Masculine gaze that Worships the Goddess, but the Male Gaze that imprisons us all, even themselves. As the song concluded, I had to replay immediately. I wasn’t too sure how I could label the song. There were components of a more Gothic and/or Vampiric Undertone. A scene that could express various moments in time, however particularly, the 40’s-60’s came to mind. We have the melody cloaked in an essence of Femme Fatale, with a subtle bop that reminds one of Marina. Giving the song a connection to the Pop Femme Frequency. There is a darkness and lightness to the song. A duality that only an integrated soul could express. There is a sound in alignment with those who enjoy workings from artists such as, Alexa Dark, Luvcat and Portishead. An eclectic tuning that embodies the complexity of what it means to be a woman and feel as a woman feels.

HoneyWire drops Bruxism (Full Moon In Libra)

Bruxism is a phenomenal album. Overall, I am truly surprised at how much I personally enjoyed it. As I have mentioned before, it can take a lot for me to get into certain genres. This album hooked me in right away. Opening up with “Mouthguard” you can feel into the tone of the album. The water element of emotion most certainly makes herself known through the essence of instrumentals and lyrics. Kaleb reported that this album was one he had been working on during some intense Pisces transits. For those who know, it was a brutal 3 years of Saturn in Pisces. Where we all collectively (and personally) faced the disillusionment of ourselves, our lives, our past and our desires for the future. Between the melodies and the song titles, I would argue that Jupiter, Neptune and Pisces all came together to fuel, to heal and to bless HoneyWire with Gemini superpowers.

The Debut Album From Lauren Morse Is Here

A beautiful quote. One that I couldn’t have expressed better myself. I find it necessary to more artists to share their bleeding heart of change for the world. Nowadays, too many mindless, mediocre, arrogant and soulless folks are creating art. Whether with quick gimmicks, trendy quotas or AI thievery (I am Looking
at you Spotify), we are missing the Soul of the Muse. Everyone wants to get rich, get famous and get laid. In fact, most male musicians will admit to only learning an instrument in order to find their way into the skirts of females. Fucking PATHETIC! What happened to the passion? How can we reverse the Social Media bandwagon of quantity over quality? We can start by supporting Artists, Musicians and Creatives alike who have no other purpose in their art outside of living a Life of their Dreams and Being the Change they Wish to See in the World. Artists/Musicians like Lauren Morse.

TRIVAX: Iranian Black Metal & The Anti-Islamic Memorandum New Moon Aries-March 19th, 2026

A Backstory From Melinoe: As I sit to create this article, I contemplate exactly where to begin with this story. Which message do I ultimately seek to give? Why was it Vital for me to collaborate with Shayan, Frontman of TRIVAX? Often, lost in my never-ending search for meaning within my intuitive endeavors. I suppose I shall summarize a bit of the beginning. Starting with the Full Circle, Saturn Return Closing, personal Cycle, closure this has all spiritually manifested itself to be. I began my Anti-Christian journey, seedlings planted since childhood, and the mistrust within the Church I was raised to be devoted and faithful. The regime of my cultural lens and the nurture I received. The undertone to the Great American Nation.
