The Brutal Assault Festival has updated their poster-generating app to include Kampfar so here is my third poster.

Too early to start packing?

Kampfar @ 2019 Brutal Assault

In just over 15 days I’ll be leaving this side of the pond for the side beckoning me with five festivals and several other shows. Had you asked me nine months ago which bands that I’ve never seen before that I most want to see live, I would have answered:

Rammstein
Behemoth
Primordial
Kampfar

In three months all four of these bands, let’s call them the Holy Quadrinity, will be off of my list thanks to the announcement this morning that Kampfar will be at the 2019 Brutal Assault Festival.

New Death Angel is out tomorrow!

Rob Cavestany of Death Angel @ 2017 Gefle Metal Festival

First, part two of a story that spanned 30 years. Part one of the story can be found here.

Part two goes like this: At the 2017 Gefle Metal Festival, pictured above, I was backstage and heading to the bathroom before Death Angel hit the stage. I turned a corner and Rob, also pictured above, appeared. I said “Hi Rob” and he responded with a “Hi, do you know where the bathroom is?” I responded with something like, “That’s where I’m heading; this way.” So there I found myself, once again pissing next to a member of Death Angel, with 30 years separating the two events.

If teenager me could have seen the video below and been told that I would only have to live until I was in my 50s to see it, I would have gladly continued living. 😉

May 31 is the big day for this.
