yeah, or maybe this means I need to give more death metal in the local scene a chance.

I kind of figured as much. Oh well. Maybe at the Masquerade?

I like death metal in the vein of Nile and Death, but I still prefer the likes of Dark Tranquillity, Arch Enemy, Holy Moses, CoB, and In Flames.

but wait!... that's not all...

I just spoke with someone who wants to debut his new project in Atlanta two weeks before ProgPower. This new project consists of members of two different bands who have performed on stage at ProgPower USA VII and VIII (showcase included), as well as two members from national recording artists of the progressive metal and thrash metal genres.

Needless to say I am stoked that he has approached Pathfinder Promotions for their debut. Everything should be finalized by the time Metal Festivus arrives.

Stay tuned in the coming days and weeks...
