I have come across Lucifer in my travels, specifically Abracadabra and I love it so god damn much.

Today's Facebook taunt is that seven years ago, I was at an Overkill show.
And for shits and giggles, here's some Neue Deutsche Harte that's been stuck in my head for the last few days.

hello
In today's Facebook taunt, six years ago I saw Ghost. I was even lucky enough to receive black communion from Papa since I was at the front. That was an experience.

Anyone who has listened to Bad Omens or Three Days Grace? Both are awesome and they are my favorite metal bands :DDD

Today's Facebook memories taunt is that 7 years ago, I was at an Amaranthe show and 8 years ago, a Kadavar one. That Kadavar show was all kinds of amazing too. The supporting acts of Scorpion Child, Wilson, Gypsyhawk and Mothership made for one hell of an old school rock night.

Today, Facebook taunts me by reminding me that 8 years ago, I saw Nine Inch Nails live for the second time. To this day, their lighting package remains one of the best I've ever seen. Was super impressive.

How about some new black metal today?
I wouldn't necessarily call Enslaved black metal (at least not new Enslaved), but it's still super good. They're one of the bands that surprised me the most seeing live. Great show.

One memory of mine relating to Ghost is a taunt. Was supposed to have seen them back in 2013 (just before Infestissunam was out) but just as I was about to board the train down to London, I realised only then I brought the wrong tickets with me and as a result missed out entirely.
Worst part was the show was only something like £6. Obviously seeing them doesn't go for that cheap these days.
One day I will get to see them even if it's only the one time ever.

That sucks. I saw them shortly after Meliora came out, so they hadn't exploded just yet and were still playing clubs. The next time they were in town, they were playing arenas.
The best shows are always small ones at clubs. One of the best shows I ever went to was an Arkona show at a tiny club in Toronto, the Hard Luck. Like...you are basically face to face with the band. They had finished their set and I was waiting a bit for coat check before leaving, but then they came back out and played another 30 minutes. There were probably about 50 people left in the place if that. It was the most intimate thing I've ever experienced.

This is actually local to me. Most people are roundly mocking the petition. Also, a good chunk of the pro-removal petition is from names like Weedlord Bonerhitler, so its even less popular than you'd think.
The Satanic Panic crap was played out in the 80s. This is why people are sick and tired of dealing with "Christians" and their bullshit.

On this day four years ago, I was at a Gwar concert. Opening for them were US Bastards and Ghoul, both of which surprised me with how good they were.
And of course, I took the "after" picture when the show was done. I very desperately needed a shower lol.

Some black metal seems appropriate for a cold and grey Sunday. Two of my favourites. Nice long, melodic songs. Wild Autumn Wind is particularly beautiful.

Gonna go more than a little obscure here with a couple songs from Japanese band, Volcano. I randomly stumbled upon Warrior's Play in like 2011-2012 and really liked it. Actually finding and buying the album was quite a bit of work, but I managed to do it and still listen to it every now and then. Just wish they were more easily findable over here. They've put out a whole bunch of albums since I discovered them, but apart from a few YouTube videos, I haven't been able to listen to them.

Been on a power metal kick lately, can't believe I've only heard of Domine up until recently. Legit been jamming this song so much, fuckin rocks, speed/power at it's finest
Also here's a bit of cheese while I'm at it, this band slaps to high heavens, still gotta be in my top 10. Ngl, I def have soft spot for "synthy" bands just coz of the Megaman X OSTs lol
And heres some newish blood. Fellowship hits the cheese meter just right.
I've always been a big fan of folk metal or at the very least bands that take traditional musical elements and incorporate them into metal. While most of the genre is focused on European tradition (especially Norse/Celt), there do exist bands that incorporate styles from places you wouldn't associate with metal.
A great example of this is Al-Namrood, a black metal band from of all places, Saudi Arabia. I completely dig how they blend traditional Arabic sounds with black metal. It hits me in just the right place.

Because I brought up my love of folk metal yesterday, here are two songs I always show someone when they ask me to describe the genre.
(PS, I so desperately miss the Paganfest tours.)

Used to listen to some Battlelore too, when I went into a symphonic metal phase, when I discovered Nightwish haha.
I'm sure I've listened to a bunch more songs that was Tolkien inspired songs. By proxy of being a Blind Guardian fan, I really should know more but Lord of the Rings, but I'm still not too savvy on the lore haha.
Also, one of the homies, Underking, released this single this year. Based on "The Battle of Pelennor Fields", I believe. He commissioned me to do the artwork for it :)
On this day eight years ago, I was at an Overkill show. Warbringer was the opener making it an absolutely solid thrash night. I miss going to concerts so very much.

They had 2 NYC dates on this tour and I went to the first one. This chick I went there with had quite a few drinks and kept asking me, "Why are you so cute?"
Besides the pure thrashiness of the show itself (this was one of the few shows where I watched from above and wasn't in the pit), I want to briefly go back to the girl, who at the time I saw for a few months. I already am cute but I guess it's even more obvious when you're wasted.
We fooled around a bit in the back of a cab, went to my place (but not before I rang someone else by accident)...the rest is history.
