    Looks friendlier than my little hellbeast Siamese. I'm not smart enough to figure out how to post a pic so a Link will have to do.

    Starting of my night with my favorite chic. Belinda Carlisle and the Go-Go's. Picked up a first press of Beauty and the Beat for $10 today. Not the cleanest copy, but works for me. Then maybe The Cult - Dreamtime, Twin Tribes - Pendulum, Sturgill Simpson - Cutting Grass Vol. 1, and finish it of with Phillipe Entremont's rendition of Greig: Concerto for Piano and Orchestra and in A minor.

    Iron Monkey/Church of Misery Split 1999

    Church of Misery is fucking great fun. Will have to check this out. Not sure about the Monkey business, but if the Church thinks enough of them to do a split, they're worth a go.

    Panzerfaust - The Suns of Perdition Chapter 2

    Dodheimsgard - Monumental Possession

    Sportsball would be much more fun if all of the athletes were allowed to take all the drugs all the time. PED or illicit. Matter of fact, each team should be sponsored by a specific drug. Who wouldn't want to watch the San Diego Stoners vs. the Minnesota Methheads in a gladiator style brawl. Players contracts could be incentive based to encourage max usage on the sidelines. Games would be shorter since everyone would be totally fucked in short order leading to fewer injuries and less CTE. Health benefits people!

  10. Top 3 albums/eps of the week.

    Sarcofagus - Envoy of Death (1980) traditional heavy metal goodness from "the first" Finnish HM band. I caught wind of it last year and finally tracked down the CD last weekend. It's a concept album from what I can tell, and I'm a sucker for that shit.

    They Came From Visions - The Twilight Robes (2024) black metal with a folk tinge and horror subject matter from Ukraine. Not quite sure this is a lot different from most of the other BM releases this year except the extremely catchy melodies. Similar to their fellow countrymen Drudkh and svrm.

    Various Artists - No Future, No Past: Finnish Speed & Thrash Metal Explosion 1986-1992 - killer Svart records comp of obscure/underground Finnish acts from the period. Not a single group I'd ever heard of. Some of the best speed/thrash I've run across in a while. The Finns know their black metal, but their speed metal might be even better.

    Early Moods/Sinner's Past

    They were good live this past weekend.

    WFH Day playlist:

    Void of Sleep - Tales Between Reality and Madness - @markm you might dig this one

    They Came From Visions - The Twilight Robes

    Santacreu - Cancons d'Amor, Dol i Enyoranca - probably this one too.

    Ebola - Distorted Romance - way too early prediction that this ends on my EOTY list

    Those two and Non Serviam are the ones I go for. I haven't warmed up to anything past that yet.

    Set I saw Saturday night was only from the first 3 albums. Might have to pick those up.

    Another show tonight. Goth night with the girls. First local show I've ever managed to get the wife to.

    Twin Tribes - Pendulum

    Urban Heat - Wellness

    Whore of Bethlehem (2006) used to be my clear favorite, but lately I've really grown quite fond of the most recent 3 or 4 going back to 2015. Especially the most recent full length, 2021's Worship the Eternal Darkness. But don't start there, go back to 2006 and start there with their first proper full length album release. Their earlier 90's EP's 'n stuff were much more raw and inaccessible, I almost never revisit that stuff.

    Controversial, but I think Luciferian Crown is the best thing they have ever done.

    Deicide - Deicide, Tampa FLA 1990. Never got the hype over this band,

    One of the worst live bands I've ever seen. Not a fan of Deicide at all, but I get the hype. Glenn was a frontrunner in the Florida death metal scene and a master of publicly. I remember the news stories when he carved the upside down cross in his forehead, was burning bibles, etc. Perfect sorta shit to draw outrage and attention in religiously charged central Florida in the early 90s. The music was completely mediocre but had all the blasphemy you can handle. So naturally kids gravitated to something that pissed off all the right people. He gets the love for being one of the first and people being nostalgic for a time when DM was controversial, satanic, and new. Has to be because the music, aside from Legion which is serviceable, is meh.

    Show wrapped last night. Would've posted a small summary, but I was well past my limit of cheap beer. I think the appropriate term is piss drunk. Regardless, day 3 was the best of the week.

    Highlights - Sodom, Demolition Hammer, and Rotting Christ. Darvaza was pretty decent too.

    Didn't get excited about Tank, though the rest of the fest seemed to enjoy them quite a bit. Also didn't get much for Forbidden, mainly because they only have 1 song I even remember and secondly because who the fuck can follow DH after they level the place.

    Surprise of the day was Rotting Christ. Never seen them or listened to them much. Pretty freaking great.

    Overall show highlights aside from the above - Queensryche (the early stuff kills live and after seeing them both I think I prefer LaTorre to Tate), Lamp of Murmur (pulled it off live), Candlemass, Sumerlands, Savage Oath, and Autopsy.

    6th year here and it just keeps getting bigger. Some growing pains and capacity issues at the venue, but they have always been good at working those things out between years. Up there with MDF for quality run organized festival by good people. If you're shopping for a fest to hit next year, can recommend.

     Currently Solitude Aeturnus. Not much of a fan, but fest day 2. Highlights so far: Candlemass with the Nightfall set, Eternal Champion with Ravening Iron start to finish, Occult Burial and their early Bathory worship, Lamp of Murmur. Up next is fuckin Queensryche playing the EP and The Warning. I am way past my limit of Lonestar for the day....

    Tomorrow gets better with Demolition Hammer and Sodom.
