jamming with jenna

In this edition of her column, Jenna recounts personal experiences in the realm of grind/deathcore which help raise questions regarding the subgenres’ aestheticization of hate.

Jenna dives into a foregone era of televised tomfoolery and asshattery, the heavy music it involved and supported, and where these anti-heroes ended up in the Internet age.

In this edition of her column, Jenna reflects on her recent encounters with extreme ideology in the black metal scene and how it, in turn, affects the genre’s impact on non-extremists.

Jenna journeys us through trying teenage years blaring early-era Bring Me The Horizon, charting the band’s scene presence and dynamic progress — as well as her own — to today, the official release date of their sixth full-length.

Jenna explores true strength and weakness in the context of her relationship with metal while growing up.
