I head to NYC tomorrow. That is all.

• This emerged last night after I had already wrapped up Canto, but I still need to share it. Lemmy’s cause of death has been confirmed. Prostate cancer and cardiac arrhythmia. (Sarah with another assist. I guess I’m pretty much useless at this point… but always grateful.)
• Children of Bodom have a new guitarist. Daniel Freyberg, previously of Norther, was recently announced as the newest member. He has a good reputation. This probably won’t suck.
• Following up from yesterday’s Killswitch Engage tour announcement. The band has added FIVE New York City gigs in early March. Everything makes way more sense now.
• I guess I can talk about album sales. A good week from mediocre bands like Disturbed and Five Finger Death Punch. Ugh. Who actually gives a shit? NOT I.
• Convulse is back! After way less time than last time! Cycle of Revenge is set to drop in March. But until then, check out this shiny new track called, well, um, “Cycle of Revenge”…

“Ein Bier… bitte.”
