I am going, as are the rest of my band...Phallicide. We're based in Bristol, playing Melodic Death in the vein of DT, In Flames, Dissection, ATG etc...and we find Bristol to be pretty decent. As long as you stay away from certain cliques in the music scene in general, it's great!! Check out the Eclipse bar, Asylum club night and local gigs to learn more. There's also a Darkane show there at the Station on Thursday 14th of November, which we are playing , doorsat 7pm.
PS I actually live in Sheffield, so I'm not the best person to learn from, but being in a Bristol based band, I'm there a lot of the time, and I'm at a lot of the shows, so I can give you a decent overview.
I checked out your site and downloaded warriors of metal..great song..will you be taking any demos with you to DT? I'll try and track you down and purchase one.......
I can have one with me. I'll be the fat guy with the virtual skinhead with the black tattoo on his right forearm. You can see a pic of me on the site. The discs are £3.50
