About

This is a convo about diabolus in musica — the devil in music, the flat five interval in music theory called the tritone. This tritone pulsates through every shirt. The medieval Catholic Church banned this chord. Composers were exiled for using it. The tritone refuses to resolve. It sits in dissonance.

100 years later. Purple Haze uses the tritone. Black Sabbath uses the tritone. West Side Story uses the tritone.

It's the forbidden chord. The ugly chord. The dissonant interval. The note you're not supposed to play.

The ugly chord is the only honest one. Our damage isn't something to fix. It's our signature sound. That's B221. Free spirt y'all.
