Wailing drums with a guitar crunch of this generation usually evades this reviewer’s ears, but sometimes a delve into contemporary metal is soul-enriching.

The life of a Dean is, quite possibly, replete with glamor, excitement and the unvarnished joy of working in a hallowed office in Alpha Hall. She might even—gasp!—have Windows 10 installed on her machine days before the hoi polloi in Hoover get their dirty hands on it. But, surely, thought Homer, as he absently munched
