Hole In the Sky

It's the beginning of a new year, and for many people that means sitting infront of the screen and go through the lists from different festivals and see what bands are playing this season.
As per usual there's your token moaning, and "trver than thou" diatribes, with some band not showing up that people have wanted to see.
As for myself, I'm having my sight locked on Hole In The Sky in Bergen, Norway. And things are looking good indeed, even though just three bands are announced this far.
As it stands today the line-up is Marduk, Ghost and Negative Plane. It's really hard to say what other bands I would like to see added to that bill though. It's totally a waste of time to speculate, but I would say that seeing Bolt Thrower play is something that would make this the best festival without competition.
Raising a cup of Early Grave - tea (yeah... Earl Grey) to that!

Welcome!

Welcome dear reader.
Before I get this blog rolling, it might be appropriate to say something about what you can expect from this little project of mine.
Here, I will mostly write about music; reviews, columns and reflections, but also comments about current events and other things I feel deeply about.
Feel free to be inspired and comment, but keep it civil.
With a free wandering mind
