The Selma to Montgomery march was part of a series of civil rights protests that occurred in 1965 in Alabama, a Southern state with deeply entrenched racist policies. In March of that year, in an effort to register Black voters in the South, protesters marching the 54-mile route from Selma to the state capital of Montgomery were confronted with deadly violence from local authorities and white vigilante groups. As the world watched, the protesters—under the protection of federalized National Guard troops—finally achieved their goal, walking around the clock for three days to reach Montgomery, Alabama. The historic march, and Martin Luther King, Jr.’s participation in it, raised awareness of the difficulties faced by Black voters, and the need for a national Voting Rights Act. :amerikkka:

    I'll go first! Jere's the last thing I did that's online, there's next to no reason anyone should like it. I also did the art which I am really proud of tho.

                    Is the name a Discordian reference or just a Greek mythology one? Also are you planning on getting this pressed or just digital? I would legit but this record and if you do want to get a record out I might actually be able to help you get a run out.

                      Couldnt tell you much about the name, i joined Pique at the start of last year, and Apostles of Eris is an offshoot of MRTEX if I’m not mistaken.

                        Oh It's a split. I'm crust oriented more than anything but in the mid 90s there was a time where screamo was actually mostly in the crust as far as shows go and there were a lot of crusty screamo bands ala His Hero is Gone. My 43 year old Stenchcore as fuck roomate can tell ya and there's some sick bands from that time as well. Check out .NEMA from Montreal sometime.

                        If I can throw one criticism down I'm noticing as info through this, a few of the slow tech bits are a little samey Edit: wait are both bands on the split here? Cause that may be the other band having a couple similar bits.
