Frankfurt am Main. Banking city. Skyline. And somewhere amidst concrete, railway tracks, and existential crisis, Truth Grip are standing there, pressing "Everything's Broken." "Twist Of Fate" isn't a delicate conceptual journey through soundscapes. It's a double EP that kicks down your door without warning, empties your fridge, and then explains why your life is actually your biggest enemy. Short, compact, brutally to the point. No intros with birdsong. No "Let's feel it first." Here, feeling is achieved by tearing down walls.
The riffs? Like someone put a jackhammer on speed.
The drums? Marching orders towards a broken neck.
The vocals? Not sung, not screamed – more like etched out.
Thematically, it's not about dragons and world-ending conflagrations, but about the real beast: inner struggle, self-doubt, pressure from all sides. Everyday life as the final boss. Ironically, the thing is called "Twist of Fate," as if it were all a cosmic coincidence. Sure. Definitely not the result of us all living in a constant stress test and trying to trudge somewhat upright through the chaos.

"Dravens Tales from the Crypt" has been enchanting for over 15 years with a tasteless mixture of humor, serious journalism - for current events and unbalanced reporting in the press politics - and zombies, garnished with lots of art, entertainment and punk rock. Draven has turned his hobby into a popular brand that cannot be classified.
My blog was never designed to spread news, let alone get political, but with current affairs I just can't help but capture information here that is otherwise censored on all other channels. I am aware that the design page may not seem "serious" to many in this regard, but I will not change this to please the "mainstream". Anyone who is open to non-state-compliant information sees the content and not the packaging. I've tried enough to provide people with information over the last 2 years, but quickly noticed that it never matters how it's "packaged", but what the other person's attitude towards it is. I don't want to put honey on anyone's mouth to meet expectations in any way, so I'll keep this design because hopefully at some point I'll be able to stop making these political statements, because it's not my goal to go on like this forever I leave it up to everyone how they deal with it. However, you are welcome to simply copy and distribute the content, my blog has always been under the WTFPL license.
It's hard for me to describe what I'm actually doing here, DravensTales has become a culture blog, music blog, shock blog, tech blog, horror blog, fun blog, a blog about found items on the internet, internet bizarre, trash blog, art blog, water heater, zeitgeist blog over the years , Scrap blog and grab bag blog called. Everything that is right ... - and yet not. The main focus of the blog is contemporary art, in the broadest sense of the word.
We're not enemies, we're friends. We mustn't be enemies. Passion may tighten the bonds of our affection, but it must not tear them. The mystical sounds of memory will resound when - and this is certain - the better angels of our nature touch them again.
