I’m really excited for the new releases by Tarja, Epica, Delain, Lacuna Coil, Beyond The Black, Nemesea, Otep and Babymetal. This year will totally rock.


I heard the Delain song Suckerpunch. I did enjoy it for the lyrics, I just felt a little underwhelmed by it musically.


I would like to dedicate WT’s song Somewhere to all the innocent men, women and children who died on TWA flight 800. Still no answers.

I have never been able to get into Lacuna Coil or Delain, but yet I loved Christina Scabbia in “The Theory of Everything” and Charlotte Wessel singing “Under Grey Skies” in Kamelot’s new album.


I was listening to Within Temptation’s “Somewhere” a few days ago, and it took me back to when the last Harry Potter film was being released. The song reminded me of the characters that wound up dead from the battle of Hogwarts, including Snape and his undying love for Lily Potter. Here the next day, Alan Rickman died. I found it so weird and coincidental.

I would kill for Floor Jansen to cover “Hellfire” from Hunchback of Notre Dame.

me too

That was a good year for metal.
