Just returned from Wacken. Amon Amarth loving slayed, never saw so many crowdsurfers at a single gig. It was crazy. I went to Dordeduh twice as they where amazing.

Goddamn I want to go to Wacken again so bad. I was there in 2004, and so were Amon Amarth, but sadly I was still too much of a melodic metal weenie at the time to appreciate them.  Was still one of the best trips I've ever made. Good times. Speaking of Amon Amarth, if you'd like your dose of AA with a helping of Bathory mixed in, try this on for a size: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzehPoRnJyE Just came across that via a review. Bloody great stuff.

Watched the livestream and they were indeed awesome, here's a recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbUCxopa0LQ The only thing is I wish they'd play some older stuff too, they only had one song from before Fate of Norns.

Just came home from Wacken. The highlight of the festival was definitely Devin Townsend, who, predictably, didn't make a single mistake, put on a hell of a show, and was incredibly funny while doing it. And he had the crowd do a giant group-hug instead of a circlepit.  The entire gig is on youtube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okLjATl5xx8 the circlehug is at 1:06:00. Another highlight was Arch Enemy's new singer, which kicks loving rear end! Having seen them with Angela, I can safely say that she's an even better singer and frontman. They were incredible, despite being put in a bizarre slot at noon, playing the first show at one of the main stages, and I was almost too hungover to stand. Other highlights in no particular order include: Behemoth's sheer evilness and comic book villain-y theatrics (what do you mean setting inverted crosses on fire while I play a song called "Christians to the Lions" is slightly over the top?) Avantasia was incredible, I had goosebumps for like an hour Carcass's loving flawless and incredible set Children of Bodom actually being incredible and not super lovely and badly rehearsed like when I saw them in 2008 Hammerfall making me seventeen again for an hour Chtonic was incredible, though I'm pretty sure the singer was a bit confused about where he was playing when he demanded that the crowd sing along to a song with Chinese lyrics

'Holy poo poo there's a woman in the crowd, i'll bet you any money her boyfriend is here too' 'I've been married for 25 years, so its been 23 years since I had a blowjob. Unless you count my dad'. He's got some good pipes too.

Track from the upcoming Godflesh album. Sounds like Justin Broadrick recorded the guitars through a trial version of one of those iphone guitar amp simulators. https://soundcloud.com/godflesh-2/new-dark-ages

So, Jukka Nevalainen is taking a break from Nightwish due to health issues. A bummer for him. However, the interesting part is that the replacement drummer on the upcoming album will be Kai Hahto.

Kai Hahto owns and this album will own. I lost track of who their lead singer is though after all the repeated shuffles.

Floor Jansen actually stuck around and is now officially their lead vocalist. This is also awesome, because that woman rules. Fantastic voice and range, awesome stage presence. They couldn't have found a better frontwoman. Apparently the next album is slated for release "before summer 2015". Can't wait. With Hahto on the drums and Jansen belting out some proper dramatic vocals, I'm hoping it'll have some real weight behind it.

Probably the most similar band to NeO's sound I've come across, though they use keys instead of violin. Not complaining, I like keyboards in metal a ton. They're real cool guys with a great sense of humor, too. Them and NeO both have records due this year, I'm hype

Who are the best vocalists that can do both death and clean vocals well?

Mikael Akerfeldt The guy currently in Amorphis Dax Riggs (if by "death vocals" you mean harsh vocals in general) Dan Swano sings, right?

Mikael Akerfeldt and Devin Townsend are tops. Jason Mendonca from Akercocke. I don't like the band, but Christian Älvestam (ex-Scar Symmetry) is decent enough at both. and Alexander von Meilenwald of The Ruins of Beverast. Entirely a solo project.

So I guess Gwar's going on tour again? I'm pretty stoked to hear it, even though it'll be weird as hell seeing them without Brockie. It even sounds like they're planning to make new stuff which I think is pretty awesome.

They're also ramping the theatrics back up because they feel those have been slipping with the relatively recent focus on the music.
