Would be interesting to see them on the Thekla in Bristol. It isn't listed on their website, but that's the boat that's mentioned in their statement

My pre-order is through hmv.com, can't seem to find a straight answer anywhere to definitely confirm that there is no chance of receiving it (and no way of cancelling). Probably just risk getting it elsewhere and hope that I have no issues

Wow, week late to the news and the only way to take it was to instantly stick some PQ on. 9 and a half years as a fan and with that time we got 5 of the very best, uplifting and life-affirming albums anybody should be pleased to ever have to listen to, unfortunately they never received the mass...

Absolva - Flames of Justice Band formed by guitarist/vocalist and drummer from FuryUK. Album is released on Nov 5th, but got fanpack addition through early from band's record company

Got some more Katatonia albums in preparation to seeing them in December Steve Harris album also came through yesterday, only one listen so far, but seems good. Agree with some of the negative reviews in part that the vocalist has a nice voice but lacking some power. Think there are some...

Last CD I got was Threshold - March of Progress In terms of pre-orders: Steve Harris - British Lion and Muse - 2nd Law (which has been delayed until October)

Just came back from the new Batman film as well. Fantastic end to the trilogy

Would definitely go, but Brixton on a Monday or Birmingham on a Tuesday aren't the easiest places to get to from here (and would need to probably use up 2 days of holiday for either)

Bit shocking if that "come and play Birmingham for free and see how it goes" is 100% truth Surely it wouldn't have been a great stretch to agree a 25% each contract and then its up to each member how they then divide that with their various agents/representatives/loved ones. Naturally with...

Big pre-order session last night Delain - We Are The Others Sonata Arctica - Stones Grow Her Name Firewind - Few Against Many Blaze Bayley - King of Metal In addition, got the following in the post Arjen Lucassen - Lost in the New Real Feeder - Generation Freakshow Skindred - Union Black

Really enjoying the new album as well, the description that I've used is 'slimmer' They've reined in some of the excessive soloing which was a bit over the top by having it on every single song on the album and came up with their shortest album (in terms of both overall length and average song...

Iced Earth will be recording a show for CD/DVD in Cyprus in June In addition, Freddie Vidales has left the band (with plans to retire from music) and been replaced by Luke Appleton (current bassist in FuryUK, who toured with Iced Earth around Europe)

Flying Colors eponymous album. On second listen through and impressed so far Edit: Just ordered Unisonic and new DragonForce

Kyrbgrinder - Cold War Technology
