"You pulled out everything, from hyperbole (that you wisely archived in a hurry), 'that's a hyperbole, period.' I didn't archive it; you changed the point I could attack 50 times without ever managing to do so, by the way."

Do they really exist? Type epta 7 on Google and you only get this page...

"On what principle does an evaluation of the style of a story you haven't even read apply to an entire cycle of stories you don't know well? I’ve read 3 or 4 and the writing styles weren’t that different (at least that’s what I remember from a reading 17 years ago…). This, however, has nothing to do with what we were talking about, and this response also applies to the first question (which continues to stray from the discussion YOU started almost a week ago).
"First of all, I never talked about boredom or being boring, so what the hell does that have to do with anything?" Define the story on the Necronomicon as "that being heavy and boring," and no one on this page used the term boredom. I assumed you were referring to the discussion you were simultaneously having with that comment. Was I wrong? I don’t think so, and you won’t convince me otherwise. "Did I say the story is exhausting?" You wrote that "the style (with which the story is written, I assume, right? NO??? Come on, then write seriously instead of half-assed...) is exhausting." You don't know how to play with words, don’t try because we'll just prolong the uselessness of this discussion for no reason. “Words have a very precise meaning.” Are you trying again? Do you enjoy looking like a fool? “Thrown out there alone means nothing; context is needed…” This is the interesting part: context is needed. Did you understand the context of my comment? You've been attacking it for days, but can you tell me in your own words what I said in my comment? I don't think you grasped a thing I wrote, and that’s why we’ve been going in circles for days. “To understand what the rigid and often exhausting structure of ‘The Call Of Cthulhu’ is, one must know what one is talking about…” I didn’t randomly say that the first 3 or 4 books I read… “The review says it’s a heavy read, that’s all.” I never said anything like that... I told you that you didn’t understand half a line of my comment... “This statement is false because the review doesn’t say that.” No, it says it’s a demanding and beautiful read. Therefore, in Italian, one can say: that thing is beautiful even though it’s very heavy. If you say the style is exhausting, I repeat, you're saying it’s a demanding read. And thus heavy. Why? Because it’s Italian. If not, tell me what you meant with that sentence, and don’t think you can evade it by saying: read it and you’ll understand... you called me illiterate, you said I need to use the dictionary better, now use Italian and explain yourself adequately. Like this: for intellectual honesty. “Instead, I talked about the often exhausting structure, that is, a structure applied to the story, and its style.” Okay then: exhausting style... It's always the Italian that gets you... “How can you define ‘heavy’ a cycle of stories based on the analysis of just one of them?” I define the style of HPL as heavy, and anyone who has read my comment can understand that I’m speaking from personal experience and referring to what I’ve read; I didn’t start the comment by saying that maybe I hadn’t read this one at all."

Reading here and there, I had found it labeled several times as a "minor record" within their discography. It's one of the 3 or 4 albums I have from hash rah, and it's definitely my favorite.

"4 months 3 weeks 2 days" never heard of it, already found it, already downloaded. Thanks. P.S. How did you see the web rip? English subtitles, do you know Greek or did you manage to find some subtitles in Italian?

I tried to read the Cthulhu cycle when I was 15/16, surrounded by metal vibes. I never understood what my Metallica-obsessed classmates liked so much about this stuff: I found it incredibly boring and I'm not even sure I got through it. Reading it sixty years earlier must have had a completely different effect, no doubt about it, but nowadays, as the review says, it’s utterly tedious. A bit like Poe’s "The Fall of the House of Usher": say what you will, but as far as I’m concerned, it's his most tedious story. Maybe it’s the only tedious story I've read by Poe; in fact, I can’t think of any other Poe stories that I didn’t like. I understand that when it was released, it could have become a phenomenon and enjoyed more visibility than other less elaborate stories by Poe, but the fact that today people say that Poe is the one of the House of Usher... yes, Poe "is also the one of the House of Usher." In fact, Poe "is the one who, among other things, also wrote House of Usher." As far as I'm concerned, Lovecraft is the one who invented Cthulhu, which is a fundamental "horror" cycle, but reading it won’t exactly improve your life.

I loathe old men, but that's my problem. The Klimtian Golden Shower on the cover would be perfect if it weren't for the fact that mixing together the myth of Danaë, Pessoa, and Sappho more than the figure of the professor makes you look like the nerd in the front row who spends his time saying: I know it, I know it, I'm here, I'm prepared. And then he throws out a series of names and dates in a speech where it's hard to understand where the beginning is and where the end is.

"Baby, take that stick out of your ass!
Because you can wear Hermès,
you can drive a Bentley,
but when the urge for dick calls, you answer."

are there only web rips or are there decent versions available?
