Iron Maiden tomorrow night, my first time seeing them. Hyped through the roof.
Great Album. Waiting for the Vinyl release. Strong contender for Black Metal album of the year.
Imperium Dekadenz also released a new album last friday. Awesome band, awesome records. I never heard anything bad from them.
That's easy to do when you don't have to play anything 90% of the timeMake sure you are next to Janick Gers, he brings the most energy

Correct, I always used to stand on that side back in the 80's at gigs, I then moved over to Daves side when janick joined, I'm sure he's a nice fella and all that!That's easy to do when you don't have to play anything 90% of the time

This is too funny not to share:
Sad news. Hartmuth Schindler aka "Black Goat", owner of Barbarian Wrath and Nazgul Eyrie, has passed away, after being pulled from life support after 2 years (!!) in a coma:
I only ever met him and his wife once IRL, but we spoke online often in the early days of Metal Archives and these two's passion for metal, especially underground metal, was unparalleled. While this was, sadly, a long time coming in a sense, I just can't imagine how awful the last two years must have been for his wife. My sincerest condolences to Cheryl and I hope she at least gets some closure.

terrible news. Nazgul's Eyrie and Barbarian Wrath were legendary operations of the underground. I was on their YouTube channel just last week listening to Tearstained tracks on my way to work. They were one of the first distros I went to for black metal and they opened my eyes to the old school ways. RIP.Sad news.

Band released a lyrics video on their FB pageI have NO clue who this uploader is. There have been rumblings for a while that the single would release today, but this channel certainly doesn't seem official. Get it while it's hot.
ah.... and I've been waiting all morning for it to finally drop
new foscor album is out in full
excited to get this vinyl
new despised icon :o :o :o (not sure if I'm a fan - the breakdown sucks for sure)
there's a new kayo dot album out today too even if it isn't exactly metal !!
FIRST SINGLE FROM BLIND GUARDIAN'S TWILIGHT ORCHESTRA IS HERE!

Blind Guardian's Twilight Orchestra – "Point of No Return"
I'll refrain from sharing my thoughts until I've given it several more listens, because it's certainly different than what I was expecting.
I do not think that we will see a lot of 'metal' in their release...The Blind Guardian track leaves me indifferent. I love BG but miss the "metal" in this track.
BG was the first metal band I saw live, in october of 1996.
2 minutes in and... yeah this is modern BG all right :\ Still no guitars even [edit: there are no guitars at all, it's just some boring Walt Disney symphonic interlude that lasts 6:30 minutes... pass]
I miss 90's Blind Guardian so much
Arnaut Pavle (FIN)
Mystískaos has at long last released the debut full-length (top) of this amazing Finnish black metal project. As the label puts it, punk-tinged and inspired by the likes of Darkthrone and Craft. Really killer stuff. They are also handling the LP version of the demo (bottom) which was all we had for years before the band faded away into obscurity until now.
yeah definitely. No frills badassery.
The first album is just as good, check it as well. Glad they got added to the Mystískaos lineup for more exposure.yeah definitely. No frills badassery.
by the way I picked up that Serpent Column as kind of a blind buy and holy shit that LP is dope. Honestly, for the most part I felt like I was listening to a really aggressive post-hardcore record that would magically transform into Calculating Infinity from time to time haha. Not what I expected at all but I absolutely love it.
