Lance<p>I think we're going to head to Cades Cove tomorrow morning. It's been a bit since we last paid a visit. There's always something there worth photographing year round.</p><p>Hoping to catch the daffodils blossoming, and maybe see a bear or two! <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/Tennessee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tennessee</span></a></p>

Jake in the desert<p><a href="https://c.im/tags/ThursDeath" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ThursDeath</span></a> time. I've massively dug Nashville, Tennessee's ACT OF IMPALEMENT since I first ran across them in 2023. Their record that year was one of my top favorites, metal or otherwise. This year, they have a new LP, 'Profane Altar', and it's RIDICULOUSLY great (of course). 8 tracks of crushing, brutal war metal you won't want to miss. Act of Impalement are a major metal contender again this year. 🔥</p><p><a href="https://caligarirecords.bandcamp.com/album/profane-altar" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">caligarirecords.bandcamp.com/a</span><span class="invisible">lbum/profane-altar</span></a></p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/metal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>metal</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/DeathMetal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DeathMetal</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/WarMetal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WarMetal</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/ActOfImpalement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActOfImpalement</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Tennessee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tennessee</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Nashville" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nashville</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/TennesseeMetal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TennesseeMetal</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/NashvilleMetal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NashvilleMetal</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://metalhead.club/@HailsandAles" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>HailsandAles</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://metalhead.club/@wendigo" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>wendigo</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://thickliquidsonly.fyi/@lola" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>lola</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://metalhead.club/@BlackenedGreen" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>BlackenedGreen</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://metalhead.club/@umrk" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>umrk</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://metalhead.club/@Kitty" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>Kitty</span></a></span></p>
