    It easily knocks the socks off st. anger, some of the songs work very well live as I found out at the o2 arena earlier this week.

    Strictly speaking, it's more of a 'him' than a 'they'. But yeah, done some nice stuff. A friend of mine knows the guy and i have seen him at the Big Chill. Also look out for the Quantic Soul Orchestra.

    i discovered these guys when i heard an Alice Russell special she did with Quantic soul orchestra. I think the track with them was on Under the Munken moon.

    The reunion of at the gates over the summer was the highlight for me, along with carcass as soon as I heard those snippets I was out looking for tickets to one of their shows no matter where it was in Europe

    As for the office here, they generally don't mind me playing metal all day as they listen to it to

    I've never seen at the gates live, would love to though. I've seen the haunted a few times, when they supported Napalm Death at the garage was one of the best gigs I've even been to, they blew ND off the stage and at the Dynamo festival they did blinded by fear and I was in heaven

    Ah but a Napalm Death mosh pit is something to be lucky if you get out without a tooth missing xD

    I think the next gig I am off to is the Motorhead one in November. Also hoping Exodus come back to Newcastle to
