About TDoL

I’m a former editor at a California alt-weekly who decided to jump the sinking ship of journalism and take the sleeker, sexier U-boat of blogging to Portland, Ore. Well, sort of. I still write for said alt-weekly as well as SPIN.com and the Portland Mercury. I also occasionally play music, most recently with this band and this two-piece. In a former life I played with these derelicts.

The Days of Lore started in 2005 as a weekly column that included random musings on life, liberty and the pursuit of music—from twee-pop to black metal, from bad to the bone to finger lickin’ good. There’s plenty more here where that came from. And check out TDoL’s semi-irregular metal feature, Black Friday.

Let’s become imaginary friends and I’ll buy you an imaginary drink. If there’s a band or an artist you think I should hear, or if you just want to say “hi,” contact me at mark@thedaysoflore.com. Like The Days of Lore on Facebook. Follow TDoL on Twitter.
