An immensely powerful piece on depression. Steel for Brains is a site wed recommend - The Slumbering Ent. For a genre born from the solidarity that came from refusing to graft itself into mainstream society, heavy metal culture has an obligation as a whole to ensure that dialogue remains open, honest, and most of all, helpful. The inspiration and compelling power of metal is rooted to the amazing resilience of the human mind. How inspiring would it be if in the absolute depths of depression, a fan might find not her/his own voice echoing back from the loneliness but instead be overwhelmed by the countless voices of those who fight that same daily battle? It’s not a starry-eyed dream of idealism to think that for all we’re given in the way of communicating with each other, we could stand to help each other out or simply offer a safe haven for discussion without fear of judgment or misconceived notions.
