BABYMETAL
I saw BABYMETAL live last week and have a ticket for the At the Gates show in three weeks. Babymetal kicked serious ass, performing a nearly two-hour show in front of a sold out arena of 20,000. Aren’t there child labor laws in Japan? Here is the set list:

This is a project that I wholly endorse
My proclivity to fix other people’s audio problems is well-known. So I’m excited about this, a note-for-note remake of Metallica’s St. Anger, recorded by guys from Adust and Grace The Skies. No, I’d never heard of them before either, but it’s a great way of getting your name on the map.

This handy tool for generating fake band names is 100% spot-on. I’ll never need to struggle again! (Thanks to @sfbrian for the link.)
For your listening pleasure
Awww yeah, it’s about ten days before we get started with the Arsies. And for your listening pleasure, I’ve put together a TIDAL playlist of all the contenders. (I’ll also be added battle-specific playlists to all our installments as we go along.)
Saturday Night’s Alright!!
Okay, the wife is not feeling well and I have succumbed to the same flu. However, I remain restless and wild and here I am on Saturday night in the man cave. See my cat respond to the new Within Temptation live Blu-Ray. I am now watching the new Judas Priest Blu-Ray!
It’s the little things
How do you make Meshuggah heavier? Slow it down enough to drop the tuning by 4 semitones, that’s how.
Thursday Night
Wife’s asleep. Got a dissertation defense to attend tomorrow. And yet here I am in the JaPaBoCaveTM enjoying Slipknot live @ Download 2009 with my cat Lucifer. R.I.P Paul Gray…
Knotfest Japan Full Report
Live Report :
Knotfest Japan 2014
Makuhari Messe, Chiba, Japan
November 15-16, 2014
November 15
Completely sold out, Knotfest Japan launched in the crisp, cold morning with two opening bands, including the Japanese hardcore band Crystal Lake. Their brief set got the crowd warmed up, with hardcore fans “picking up change” in the pit and the rest of us head-banging.

The merch line is epic. It opened at 8am. I took this picture at around 1pm. Somebody’s getting paid!
