Jolly good. Thought I'd just check. Carry on.
I have a hard time believing you are willing to pass up the opportunity of seeing Twisted Sister live. In fact, it burns me up. I just can't take it....anymore.

 
I'd probably watch them just to say I had. Those bands are just on the main stage, by the way. There are two other stages, on which bands with bone chilling names will be performing.

None of them are that interesting.
 
Add Gorgoroth, Ensiferum and Opeth to your Friday, and Gojira, Korpiklaani, Suffocation and Bloodbath to your Sunday along with what you bolded would be what I'd see.

Are you going Lance?
 
I could quite easily listen to them. Doesn't sound too different to As I lay Dying.



Why, Stobzilla? I used to laugh at them, but now I listen to them.

I like the first EP.

Like is a strong word, I could enjoy two songs off of it.

Count Your Blessings and Suicide Season are terrible albums.

I considered Suffocation, and Gorgoroth, just to see what laws they would break.

I might go, I think I'm free. I have a tattoo convention next month, then something on the weekend before Bloodstock, so we'll see. Possibly.

Count Your Blessings and Suicide Season are terrible albums.

The EP sounds a lot 'softer' and more post hardcore than deathcore or what ever they're now defined as. Count Your Blessings is a poor album, but I really like Suicide Season.
 
Sonata Arctica, Opeth and Evile are all good live, the first two amazingly so. I'd love to see Devin and Edguy too.

Sadly I have no money, so you must go and be metal in my place. Like some sort of bizarre substitution. I want you marking the left wing speaker.
 
Not fussed on Opeth, personally. Their frequent forays into acoustic material don't interest me.

They are a trendy name to drop in casual conversation, though. Not that I am accusing any of you of that.
 
Good old fashioned Swedish Death metal. Its Mikael Akerfeldt's side project outside of Opeth, and is his tribute pretty much to the old bands like Dismember, Entombed, Grave etc. They are nothing revolutionary by any means, but still good to listen to

Just to sweeten the deal somewhat, Dan Swano and Peter Tagtgren were involved with the band's first 2 albums

I like it. Wouldn't sound out of place on 'Left Hand Path.'

About 99% of the bands I listen to are from Sweden. Witchery, Entombed, Nightrage (first two albums with Lindberg), The Haunted, At the Gates, The Crown, Soilwork, Dark Tranquility, Face Down, In Flames, One Man Army and the Undead Quartet, Arch Enemy, The Duskfall, Hatesphere, etc.
