In this, the age of the internet, gone are the days of write it and post it. Now we can write it and schedule it for later. HAHA. Duh, right? Right. Anyway, as you read this I’ll be on the road doing work stuff. What stuff? Top secret stuff… I could tell you but then I’d have to snuff you out so… Moving on, with some windshield time ahead of me I’ll have some very good companions from this week’s incoming batch of new metal to the tune of some wickedly feral death metal from Werewolves (a band I like very much for their no bullshit attitude) then a quick little ditty, for all the deathcore fiends reading this, from Tracheotomy, next up is Orange Goblin who I’ve always associated with that awesome yet crazy drunk uncle that’s at every shindig (just me?), and we close the opening slots with some ambient tunes from Harvestman who we are all huge fans of. All that and much more awaits in the list below so get to diggin’ and we’ll see you here throughout the week.
