About Me

I love metal music! Be it brutal or melodic, as long as it sounds good to me.


I'm a very keen gig goer, and have attended the Wacken Open Air festival in Germany twice, which have both been brill. Will be attending Bloodstock next week for the first time as well! ICED FUCKING EARTH!!

Paradise Lost @ Manchester Academy 3 3/12/07

The only support comes from Italy's Novembre. Having seen these guys support Katatonia in March 2006, I pretty much knew what to expect, and again they impressed me. Tried getting into their studio ma...

Marduk & Unleashed @ Sheffield Corporation 29/11/07

I didn't know a lot about the bands on this bill other than Marduk and Vreid's MySpace tracks and Unleashed's recent album, but was rather keen to check them out, as line-ups like this don't often hap...

Blaze Bayley @ Leeds Rios 23/11/07

Tonight, British metal rules, despite the piss-poor attendance, kicking off with Fury UK from Manchester. Very impressive performance, but no match for Conquest of Steel, who's live performances alwa...

Sonata Arctica @ London Electric Ballroom 12/11/07

Sonata's only UK date on their Unia tour, and I wasn't gonna miss this one. Fortunetly I managed to get a train to London for £20, which is good compared to the standard fare of nearly £80! The openi...

Eastpak Antidote Tour @ The Cockpit, Leeds 2/10/07

Not checking the time the doors opened resulted in me being about 30 mins late. Caught a bit of Sonic Syndicate though, but I guess I didn't miss much, all I can say is "meh" The same could be said f...

After Forever @ Leeds Rios 12/09/07

The doors were actually open on time for once! The only support came from local power metallers Dreamcatcher. The guitar work was very impressive, shame I can't say the same about the vocals. But hey,...

Candlemass @ Leeds Rios 11/9/07
