Paris, France blackened, industrial, sludge metal warriors NON SERVIAM, via BANDCAMP, are streaming the bands latest EP "WORK", unleashed 5/1/2021 via CODE 666 RECORDS.
"This initial head-spinning block continues with a new video that surfaced on Christmas for a song that promises “I Will Kill You“. The song is from this Parisian collective’s fantastic Il Pleut Partout Derrière, an EP released last month.
If you’re already familiar with Non Serviam (and if you’re not, you’ve got some catching-up to do), you already know they indulge in genre-splicing experimentation, with attention-seizing results, and that’s certainly true of this song. The video makes it even more hellish and discombobulating.
P.S. Non Serviam have a split with Gallkrist pegged for release on February 12, and I suspect it will be fascinating."

On 12/26/2021, former Los Angeles Raiders coach, NFL football announcer commenter and MADDEN FOOTBALL video game franchise owner/creator JOHN MADDEN died at 85..
I loved John Madden, specifically as an NFL announcer back in the 80's. I learned so much about NFL football from John Madden and Pat Summeral. I didn't hurt that JOHN MADDEN was a former NFL coach breaking down NFL football in laymens terms. . There's a reason why NFL videos games are named after JOHN MADDEN. MADDEN retired from NFL football announcing as he didn't like to fly.
Thanks JOHN MADDEN for great NFL football coaching and announcing and helping me to understand NFL football.. R.I.P MADDEN. Thanks for getting me into NFL football.
and honestly, a piece of my childhood and teenage years just went with him. JOHN MADDEN was a multi generational influence as MADDEN has the best winning percentage as the LA RAIDERS coach in NFL football history. MADDEN and his announcing partner PAT SUMMERAL were an iconic announcing, NFL analyst duo. and of course the NFL MADDEN video game franchise. It's safe to say, JOHN MADDEN had a bigger influence on NFL football than the great VINCE LOMBARDI.
I honestly think more retired NFL couches and players should be announcers as I could see PEYTON MANNING being a good announcer. JOHN MADDEN was one of a kind. Have some "turddunkey", watch his new documentary and ,play some MADDEN in his honer. I'm heartbroken.

ITP V.20/21's author writes alone, and always has. ITP V.020/21s TEXT is CREATIVE COMMONS (and copy written) as ITP V.020/21 is a media partner for the music/metal industry and under fair use promoting music.

SOME RIGHTS RESERVED WITHOUT PREJUDICE Protect Yourself
BTW, ITP was EDITED in FULL (the entire journal in 2013 (Years ago-ITP looks and reads different huh?.
BTW, ITP TEXT is CREATIVE COMMONS and you might look silly as I have bit of black list in the music industry and beyond.
A couple of issues I would like to address:
ITP DOES NOT like PSYCHOTIC people following ITP, you're under arrest, I will sue you.
ITP does not promote local and regional artists/bands and music venues whom have screwed me over, don't reciprocate or bands, labels, venues I don't like.
It is NOT ITP's responsibility for promoting your venue, club or crap band or show, DIY and promote your self, If I don't promote you or your band are awful, the music is awful.
ITP only promotes what SHE likes, go play in your own sandbox.
I don't promote local or regional bands or/and venues just because they are local, nor do I ignore bands and venues from out of state and out of the U.S. .
ITP does not promote main stream music nor mall core..Only extreme metal..
There are a couple of labels that are blacklisted, one that is national socialist.
A few bands are blacklisted from ITP, and one or two venues.
Obviously is someone gets in fight over ITP there will be consequences, NOT YOURS, ITP owns her own copy right.
ITP is not a request journal, it is an extreme metal source for extreme metal news, no hipsters, ITP is my journal.
ITP, while a media partner for most labels,does not write for nor work for record labels and is independent of record labels. ITP is not owned by a record label.
BTW, regarding monetize for adverts, ITP does not normally do adverts and has not committed to monetize, although I'll look into it, depending on timing and circumstances.
Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal and welcome to ITP \m/
