also. the fact that odin was (arguably; we don't get an objective view) complicit in the genocide of algrim's people and algrim was the only survivor. UNTIL loki killed him. while calling him a monster.
like. the loki-algrim-asgard monsterhood dynamic... i need to think about this.

"Is there anything particular that you've been studying lately that has captured your interest?"
Glancing at Saima from the side as they followed one of the many winding paths through the Queen’s gardens, Algrim exhaled a suffering sigh. “Would that I could find the time to read for pleasure these days.” An afternoon stroll between appointments was the first indulgence the elf had allowed himself after weeks of tenacious negotiations. When Saima had stopped by, Algrim could not have been happier to trade the clamour of the council hall for some fresh air and a chance to catch up with his friend. While the trees were still barren and the flower beds devoid of colour, the promise of spring was already in the air. It would not be long before nature awoke from its wintry slumber.
“With the trade arrangement with the Dwarves coming up for renewal, nearly all of my time has been consumed by studying maps of Nidavellir and drafting a proposal that will hopefully satisfy all involved parties. It shall not be long before I will have to embark on a somewhat troublesome journey. Dwarves, as you may know, commonly prefer to dwell under stone, which makes for rather arduous travel,” he explained, his brows creasing at the thought of what lay ahead. “Have you ever set foot on their realm during your wanderings?”

Protomartyr & Stuck Live Show Review: 7/13, Thalia Hall, Chicago
Tumblr media
BY JORDAN MAINZER
“Tap calls the time,” Joe Casey sang last Thursday at Thalia Hall as Protomartyr performed “Elimination Dances”, a standout track from their new album Formal Growth in the Desert (Domino). Like many of the band’s best songs, its inspirations are obscure, this particular instance taken from a game in a 50′s dance manual: Once you’re tapped out, you stop. Given the Detroit punk band’s generally bleak nature, it’s not hard to find the referenced game a fitting metaphor our everyday life, trying to survive in a capitalist hell world. But consider that Formal Growth was written in the context of the death of Casey’s mother, recorded in an actual desert at Sonic Ranch in Tornillo, TX with producer Jake Aron. Casey didn’t aim to create something or find meaning out of emptiness, per se, but answer the question, “Once tap calls the time, how do the rest of us move on?” Luckily for him, and for us, there’s music.
Tumblr media
I’ve seen Protomartyr a bunch of times. I never would have thought to describe one of their shows as life-affirming, but Thursday’s was, from the younger segment of the crowd’s persistent moshing to the unexpectedly anthemic quality of the band’s performance. The live version of Formal Desert opener "Make Way” traded the studio version’s openness for a much mightier, choppier stomp. The crowd reframed the anxiety-riddled namesake refrain of Relatives in Descent chugger “The Chuckler”--“I guess I’ll keep on chucklin’ till there’s no more breath in my lungs”--as an absurdist call to arms. The normally stoic Casey performed the entirety of The Agent Intellect’s “Why Does It Shake?” on the barrier between the stage and the crowd, about as close to spirited as he’ll ever be. Even the band’s chosen setlist seemed authored specifically to amp up the crowd. I mean, they could have played “Let’s Tip The Creator”, which chides the way tech billionaires treat art as a commodity, just as much of a charged bummer as the rest, but its subdued timbres are harder to dance to. Protomartyr’s instead taking the Gang of Four route, favoring, say, the skittering drums of “Fun in Hi Skool”. 
Tumblr media
As this was the last show of the tour, Casey joked, “We’ll either be so tight, it will be the best show of our lives, or so tired it’ll be the shittiest.” Guitarist Greg Ahee, bassist Scott Davidson, and drummer Alex Leonard at least made sure it wasn’t the latter, of course. But it was the addition of The Breeders’ Kelley Deal as a full-time touring member of the band that elevated older songs even more than it provided faithful renditions of those whose studio versions she was on. Her voice subbed for the “I have arrived” echo on Under Color of Official Right’s “Maidenhead”, and her backing harmonies beautifully contrasted the ugliness of “Pontiac 87″. And her guitar tones on "Polacrilex Kid” seemed lifted straight from the Hawaiian twang of Last Splash’s “No Aloha”, an inspired replacement for the studio version’s pedal steel. Casey clearly remains eternally thankful. He once said in an interview with NPR, “Basically, the band comes up with amazing music and it's my job to not screw it up too much.” It’s all I could think about as I watched him sip from a Budweiser can, nodding like he was impressed while watching Leonard hammer away during the extended intro of “Jumbo’s”. If he sings on “The Author”, “Time's your enemy / Every gift you see will be taken for sure,” live, he demonstrates the unspoken flipside: Enjoy the gifts while you can.
Tumblr media
Local post-punk band Stuck, who I saw open for Metz last winter, was the perfect primer for Protomartyr. They, too, sing about the effects of the decline of America, albeit with a nervy, wiry yelp that recalls bands like Devo and Squid. Lead singer Greg Obis was quick to point out how honored the band was to open for Protomartyr, one of his favorites. It’s easy to see the influence on their new album Freak Frequency (born yesterday). A track like “Fools Idol”, its descriptions of “violence unending” and “the boss descending,” is very Casey-esque in its brand proclamations. And like Protomartyr now, Stuck is that much more loud and urgent live, foregoing, for instance, the studio acoustic instrumentation of “Scared” for all electric jitters. However, unlike those of the perennially offline Casey, Stuck’s songs are riddled with technology-induced worries. At Thalia Hall, drummer Tim Green’s disorienting use of sample pads was an effective mirror for Obis’ admission he’s “distracted all over again” on “Loose Your Cool”. Green’s motorik drums and Obis’ and Ezra Saulnier’s sharp guitarwork reflected the pain of similar cycles of smartphone despair on “Time Out”. The almost hilariously plodding pace of “Planet Money” made a circus out of the song’s targets, the pundits who comment on the health of the economy as if it truly affects the everyday life of our most vulnerable. And then there was set closer “The Punisher”, the only song that saw Obis sing harmonically, sans paranoid screams. On the track, he deftly summarizes the absurdity of the January 6th insurrection, facetiously winking and nodding, “The future never looked so bright.” Even if the world that Protomartyr and Stuck envelop does everything in its power to suggest otherwise, upon leaving Thalia Hall on Thursday, you could, perhaps, agree.

[x]
Saima recognized that kind of exhausted sigh that Algrim had let out. There were many periods in their own existence that they rarely had time to read for their own pleasure nevertheless than anything else. The exhaustion that comes from varying labors definitely had a way of catching up with someone and it seemed very much true with him too.
"Ah, a shame that you haven't have the opportunity but.. I probably shouldn't be too surprised that you've been so busy." At least he was able to enjoy a nice walk with them, they had missed his company after all this time. And to see him right when Spring was starting to arise again only made the moment even sweeter in their eyes.
Listening closely to his description, Saima nodded at the sheer amount of work that he had been responsible for. "Yeah trying to draw out such agreements ..is such an arduous undertaking. I've done somewhat similar things and it really does get to you trying to make things right. "
As for the Dwarves way of travel, Saima had remembered their own experiences in that moment. "Yeah I'm familiar with it. It definitely is ... a tricky way of moving about. Although it clearly works for them. It's been a while since I've been in their lands though so I don't know if anything has changed since then. "
