So I had a splendid bday evening at The Meadows in Brooklyn seeing Coroner, with Deceased opening up. Fairly small place but a packed house, and a mixed crowd age wise. Not all geezers like us! Deceased was meat and potatoes death metal and we loved it. Coroner was amazing—what a great band. See the rest here
Thanks for that—it’s always a pleasure to read your in depth reviews! Gamma Ray is not a band that was ever really on my radar, but I know you are a long time devotee. I will definitely check some more out. What album should I start with?
Happy 4th of July! See the rest here
Thanks for the list! As usually, I have heard very little of them. Enjoyed the Enslaved a lot, and have heard some of the In Flames (saw them open for Meshuggah last week, which was great—more on that in another email). I will try to listen to a few. I’ll tell ya what I did love is the new Overkill! See the rest here
It’s both goofily entertaining and kick ass music, a rare combination. See the rest here
This just made my year.
So, I’m covering the hospital for the first time in a couple of years… It’s a two week stint, and I’m almost done with my first week. It’s been really great; I‘ve been totally enjoying myself working with the team, seeing patients, doing a lot of teaching. The part that’s more relevant to you, however, is that I have a 35 minute drive to and from the hospital, as opposed to my usual 10 minute commute, which allows for the return of Band of the Week™!

So Kirk has a sense of humor, at least! See the rest here
Thanks for the vid, which is amazing….
About to go rock out with VH I, arguably the best hard rock album ever made. Who’s ready to fight me on it? See the rest here
Surprisingly it works!
✦✦✦✧ Run, don’t walk to your nearest wifi enabled device (or if you are JaPaBo, inefficiently procure a hard copy in the format of your choice) to listen to this gem. For the first couple of tracks, which come out of the gates hard, it’s like you are listening to the best DM album of 1991 you somehow missed, but with better production. See the rest here
