Goats and John Darnielle are both kvlt as fuck
Iron Maiden - Speed of Light

Myrkur - Onde Børn

And, sadly in rather lower video/sound quality, my old mates from Katagory V in one of their last shows (supporting The Iron Maidens, hence the backdrop, and I can be seen in the audience of this one), playing Apologetic Heart:

WASP is coming out with a new album next month. The advance single is out:

It sounds exactly the same as last two WASP albums. Nice leads. Blackie sounds tired, though.
edit: I do like the guy they got on leads, Doug Blair. He's got a very rough edge to his playing that goes well with his tone.

EDIT: and their Sept. 2nd San Antonio show was, unsurprisingly, cancelled (although the gig went ahead with Saxon effectively headlining):
Their next scheduled show is Sept. 4th, in Dallas.

The omission of Bill Ward is impossible to ignore
What a silly typo. :rotate:
I assume there will be European dates announced later...

Just in case any of you guys need cheering up.
Saw that and commented on their Facebook. It's sad, but better to only have put out great records than burn out.
Listening to the new Cruciamentum.
This album is also pretty cool, they manipulate that Scandinavian death metal guitar tone into some more atmospheric death/doom, slightly unique structures kind of like Necrovation did.

Going to the doctor's now so they can see if I'm going to need stitching up and whatnot. Good times!

Oh sweet! Me and a matey from work are planning on going. Don't know suffocation well at all either, but I've never seen Nile before so I'm pretty chuffed!

Jebus, what kind of cat's do you have that are gauging stitch worthy cuts!?

Kvlt Kitties?

Nothing dreadful with the scratches, thankfully. There's a nice tear in the flashy bit between my thumb and forefinger on my right hand, but the rest are pretty straightforward.
We've also got a sort-of semi-wild Balinese who's afraid of people but slowly coming round, and a classic kvlt black kitty. They're all rescues of one form or another.
I did have a snowshoe Siamese who was absolutely my best friend in the world, who I got while I was living in the States and he moved to the UK with me when I came back in 2011. He died in June and I still miss him terribly.

Yeah, Mikkey Dee is ferocious here. I'm pretty into "Victory or Die," "Thunder & Lightning," and "The Devil" myself.
edit: Also I'm not sure if I should grab Book of Souls on vinyl or cd because I'm never gonna listen to either (no turntable and CDs I usually listen to in the car I never drive)
If you're going to get a physical edition for collecting/posterity, best to get the biggest, baddest thing you can. And Amazon has given me a free digital version (320Kb/s or VBR0, depending on the album) for like the last 5 vinyls I've bought from them.

I think that's what I'm gonna do. I can listen to Spotify whenever I want and it's something like 320kb/s on Premium, and whenever I get a turntable, I'll have something to break it in :biggrin:
edit: Just started listening. Will report back. Very excited.
this is gonna be great
They aren't "records" they're "LP's".
If you want to be a music snob you gotta use the right words. :rotate:
