Am I just now realizing, two Cantos later, after looking up who the "Queen of everlasting lamentation" refers to (Persephone, duh, who else could it possibly be..), that the Pluto we met earlier is Hades, THE HADES (husband/kidnapper to Persephone).
I can't for the life of me internalize the roman names.

Reading the divine comedy...now what the hell is a fen? What do you mean there are fens, bogs and marshes? I just knew swamps.
It turns out hell, or at least the 4th (5th?) circle of hell, is alkaline, who would've thought.

Got started with The Divine Comedy after only getting halfway through The Aeneid. I wanted to read the Aeneid to better understand The Comedy, but I guess it will work the other way around. It will help as motivation to get back to the Aeneid afterwards to catch any missed references :BlobhajBlanketSlate:
So has it been fated by the reading gods.

#THEDIVINECOMEDY The Divine Comedy déploie toute l’élégance et toute l’impertinence de sa pop orchestrale sur la scène du Cirque Royal de Bruxelles. Avec un Neil Hannon au top de sa forme pour nous faire découvrirRainy Sunday Afternoon, son treizième album. C’est en 1989 que le chanteur nord-irlandais Neil Hannon fonde The Divine Comedy. Cette décision fait très vite de lui l’une…

Standouts from #AadamJacobsCollection
A ferocious #Nirvana set
#thedbs introduced themselves to me, showing off their covers chops, along with the originals
a very popular #Television tape, with 13 minutes worth of Marquee Moon
currently tuning in to #TheDivineComedy (not Dante's--Neil Hannon, a bit of a Rufus Wainwright spiritual ancestor) Interesting to hear trio format, rather than horns and strings backing.

I realised that I've not really properly listened to any Divine Comedy albums after Regeneration (you know, the one where Neil Hannon tried to be something he's not, semi-disastrously). So, what better thing to do on Good Friday than catch up with several albums of back catalogue?
So far, it's quite impressive: it's still the case that every album has at least one track that makes me cry spontaneously (*two* on Bang Goes the Knighthood) *and* also at least one incisively witty track [although few as *angry* as The Complete Banker, also from the above album].
(I do cry easily from some triggers, but Hannon seems particularly good at this.) -

I'm not saying this because I'm a big fan of The Divine Comedy but isn't this going to be an instant Christmas classic song?

For all you Philip Glass and Steve Reich fans, this song is delightful.

#SteamNextFest is over, but I found two demos yesterday I really liked and wanted to shout out, starting with the beautiful #HellMaiden. Just watch this video. #AstralShift's games have this incredible hand-drawn animation style, and seeing #Virgil, #Ovid, and Dante as anime girls is strange and charming.
