“Nexion is wrath,” the Eddas, and Michael Jordan: The second part of Lyonel Perabo’s conversation with Joshua Rood.
“Even though Ásatrú might not have been quite where I had imagined it, people were actively trying to work toward something. You don’t get temples and songs and chants and beautiful ceremonies and certainly not a deep knowledge system overnight. You need to discover and build these things. And you need a community to do it with.”
Lyonel Perabo provides a brief overview of three subgenres of heavy metal music of interest to Pagan listeners – folk, Viking, and Pagan metal – and offers TWH’s very own heavy metal playlist.
Except that what I heard then were no musical notes. These were sounds of the earth. Crackling; slowly rumbling; like a fissure opening up on the ocean floor; or a mountain growing, or a volcano awakening after millennia of stillness. The music had not even started that I was already captivated.
Lyonel Perabo speaks with four Witches and Pagans in Israel about their individual experiences and disparate opinions about the October 7th attacks and Israel’s war on Gaza.
