    I have to say, Dying Fetus were absolutely brilliant. Goatwhore played a romper stomper of a set and I didnt think DF would top it but they did. A perfect mix of new and old tracks and high intensity throughout. They even had a guy in a wheel chair crowd surf!

    Killswitch Engage @ The Academy

    Anathema @ The Button Factory

    Carcass @ The Academy

    Leprous/Haken @ The Village(Opium Rooms)

    Eluveitie @ The Button Factory


    and hopefully I can add Arch Enemy to this list in a few weeks!
