Just got back from Russia and other places so have a few shows to share. Got to film some bands in Moscow which was cool but even better was getting to interview the "Tom Araya of Russia" inside his home in a remote village.

First up, Sithlord from Thrashfest last December. Nice meaty thrash.

This is not up-to-date, I'm sure there are some other good local shows on this month in Melbourne.

Much going on over there?
Unless you're living in the border regions or know people serving in the army it is pretty much life as usual.

I was grilled a bit more by immigration entering the country but by and large the people were extremely friendly. I was expecting some anti-west sentiments but didn't really experience any. It helps to speak a little Russian.

I think this was my fifth trip to Russia and probably enjoyed it more than any previous trip. Might go back at the end of the year.
 
Got the lad a modest set up for his birthday. Once our house is finished he will have his own music room but for now we make do in the bedroom.

New Blood Incantation is quite the journey. Every time I think it's drifting too far down the prog or ambient path it snaps back leaving me thinking at songs end it somehow worked.

Definitely going to need to give this album a couple more spins to work out what I really think. Right now I'm more than intrigued.
