Booooo! Had to cancel this years trip. Mum had a panic attack at the weekend and still wasn't right when I had to leave for airport. I'd also run myself into the ground dealing with it and trying to make last minute arrangements. She's OK now, no immediate worries but I'm the only one here so I just couldn't leave her alone like that. At least I've had 3 fest trips so far so I can't really bitch.

on the black metal thing. no innovation at all, but who cares, black metal is good and always will be :p
any inovation nowadays leeds to a completely new genre it seems... it gets all the attention for like 5 years and then implodes.

Quite the keen observation - actually, sometimes I worry that metal might be running out of creative steam. But then bands like Ne Obliviscaris show up and make me feel foolish. Anyone else feel like that?

well I think most new albums (last 5 years orso) are crap... :p
so I tend to check out more and more old school stuff.

Was that Wacken or something else? Hope your mom feels better soon!
