10/3/2017. It’s October now. I skipped Monday because I forgot.

• Aura Noir will be touring North America later this month with their classic lineup for the first time ever. There’s only a handful of dates, but this is a good one to catch if you can.
• Watain have announced a 7-inch Nuclear Alchemy will drop on October 31st. This single should give us a taste of what their upcoming full-length, due out in January, will be all about.
• Septicflesh have announced a co-headlining North America tour with Dark Funeral. Support will come in the form of Thy Antichrist. Count me in.
• Tom Petty has passed away at 66. It’s been a sad week. Goodbye to a legend. RIP.
• Turning things just around a bit, how about the Decibel Metal & Beer Fest 2018 news? Carcass, At The Gates, Mayhem, and a boatload of amazing beer. Sounds like heaven. Hell?

No video today, sorry.

“Ein Bier… bitte.”
