A Columbian lady assumed that I've got Argentinian heritage today. I was speaking to her in (my very limited) Spanish, and apparently with my accent and hair, she assumed that I was a (very bad) heritage speaker with Argentinian extended family.
I guess I the rioplatense content I have found has been more impactful than I realised :)
Ernesto "Che" Guevara was born on 14 June 1928 in Rosario, Argentina. Although the legal name on his birth certificate was "Ernesto Guevara", his name sometimes appears with "de la Serna" and/or "Lynch" accompanying it. He was a Cuban-Argentinian Marxist revolutionary, physician, author, guerrilla leader was born on this day in 1928. 1/2
¿Estará #Argentina convirtiéndose en una sociedad sin efectivo?
Desde hoy, el billete de mayor denominación es de 2000 pesos (hasta ahora hubo hasta 1000).
Su valor es un poco inferior al de la moneda de 5 francos, que circula desde el año 1850 (época de Rosas).
¿O simplemente una sociedad sin plata (salvo para algunos pocos)?
Not yet anything, no guarantee that it'll pass, no one knows rn what party will be the next government, etc etc but like. This is on the table. And it should be, and that should be normal, but in the world we have right now… this is exceptional, incredible. <3

It goes by many names: Doom Metal, Stoner Rock, Desert Rock, Heavy Psych, Sludge Metal… they’re all mostly describing the same thing. Low tuned, fuzzed-out guitars, and slow tempos. Black Sabbath pretty much prototyped the genre, which is why I included them here.
If there are any vocals at all, the lyrics tend to involve drugs, space, paganism, or general feelings of doom (go figure). Not that it matters, they’re almost always unintelligible. 😏
In the 90s there was a big stoner rock scene in the Palm Desert, #California area, which is why it’s sometimes referred to as Desert Rock. Kyuss was probably the biggest band to come out of that era.
More recently there’s been a flourishing of doom metal bands in #Poland. The last 3 bands in this mix are all from Poland.
Black Sabbath pretty much invented doom metal in 1970. Good job guys. For you younger types, that's Ozzy Osbourne's original band. 😉
Members of Kyuss have gone on to form or play in Queens of the Stone Age, Eagles of Death Metal, and Them Crooked Vultures among other bands.
Elephant Tree is from London.
Earth is one of the pioneers of Drone Metal. (Yet another sub-genre!)
Weedpecker, Spaceslug and Lowrider are all from Poland. 🇵🇱
For other Polish bands, check out Dopelord, MuN, Bantha Rider, Major Kong, Fifty Foot Woman, Kapitan Bongo, Seedium, WEIRD TALES, Shine, Belzebong and Sunnata.
