I second that.

But happy I bought the album anyway (partially thanks to the advice of incredibly old people like Knuthulhu). It's massive !

Hey, what's up with that?!!!! I stay out of here for a few weeks during my holidays, and look what happens! Have you no respect for my gray hairs?

HELL comes to Dublin:

Care to translate what it said?

Something along the lines of "negative bastards stuck in the past" probably? Haha...

I do think that we had a large part in the decision of that second demo CD compilation at least… I have to give it to the band on this one based on the fact that they put forth the effort to make their fans of both eras happy.

I hesitantly purchased the 2 CD edition a while back.

I honestly had to close my eyes while that video was playing, but the main riff just kept me hooked 'till the end! It's a really killer song, and they truly surprised me there.

where the hell is depths of despair??? (yes i barely bought it)

oh, and wtf with the digipak! you cant take out the cds without damaging the outer box,nuclear ass,all that money and you come up with such obvious mistakes

Hahaha, so true. My tactic is to leave one of them sticking out, otherwise it's HELL trying to get them out again...

Same here.

By the way, the album is still ok, but in my opinion there are about 30 better albums released this year.

OK, that probably has something to do with you preferring Gravestone over Angel Witch and such.

Did Winger release something this year?

I finally succeeded in removing the digipacks from the box! Time for a listen soon.

No
Next year I'll bring some Winger-albums, especially the last three are brilliant, with me at KIT that you and I can listen to. Guess you're looking forward to that session!

Mordred: Never bothered checking out Gravestone, but for their sake I hope they're better than Angel Witch.

I would rate the Hell-album at least a 6/10, and that ain't that bad. Plague and Fyre, for instance, is brilliant, but there are some really boring songs too

Guess I have to live without it. I tried booking that hotel in Beckstein, but there were no rooms left. Damn!

That's a pity! Would have been really nice to see you guys again there next year.
Guess I'll have to bring my discman and some Winger-cd's down to the festivalarea for you to listen then.
