Here's why:
First, new albums!
Saint Vitus - Lillie F-65 (Spring 2012)
Fear Factory - The Industrialist (Spring 2012)
Testament - Dark Roots of Earth (Spring 2012)
Kreator - Phantom Antichrist (6/5/12)
Overkill - The Electric Age (3/27/12)
Plus Slayer and TOOL are expected to have new albums out by year's end. I'm sure I'm missing some but these are just the bands and albums I'm most stoked about. Fuck the bullshit Sabbath reunion now that Bill Ward is out.
Secondly: Anthrax is on their second leg w/Testament on the Earth on Hell Tour, Megadeth is touring w/ Motorhead on the Gigantour, and we've got Slayer and Anthrax on Mayhem Festival this summer. Overkill is touring in May in support of their new record. Kreator is supposed to be announcing a tour. Ringworm is playing 3 shows at SXSW.
So a lot of cool shit happening soon, gonna catch every show I can. What upcoming albums are YOU looking forward to most?
