Suffocation I like. Suffocation I will see at least once (their set at the pool deck back in 2017 was great)

October Tide would be nice. Their latest album rips

I'm not familiar with these guys at all, they appear to have a lot of albums though.

They were my dinner band at PPUSA last year

What the actual fuck, Andy? That's neither Be'lakor nor Borknagar!

Ugh, another band straight to the undesired list

Trollhammaren! Nice!

OH MY GOD, NEXT IS LETTER B. BETTER BE BE'LAKOR OR BORKNAGAR!

Stam1na, huh? Saw them in 2017 on the pool deck, thought they were cool

Who knows, MSF might even get 90 minutes considering how big their logo is on the artist page.

LMAO, I thought the exact same thing. It is quite obscene

I approve this announcement. They are great guys. I'm also hoping this means Insomnium will come. That Tampere show might as well get cancelled. If you look on Insomnium's website, the Tampere date is not shown BUT it is shown on the fb page. S for Sarke, Shape The Above, Slugdge, Shining (from Norw...

Ihsahn ... fucking awesome!
Axxis ... meeeh

I got no O's so whatever

Oh look my daughter's in this photo I was already probably too drunk to get in to the group photo...

At least you had someone representing you

I’m guessing it’s because they’re Canadian

They also have a song on their latest album called So Cold. Yup, I was so intrigued by the title I actually looked on Wikipedia. I was bored

Oh for fuck's sake, straight to "banda non grata"... neeeext!

I'm summoning Inferi

Michael Schenker Fest could be worth checking out.....

My hope for Tomb Mold is still present

YES! Magnificent band! Saw them at ProgPower USA XIX last year and they were awesome!

So happy I'm gonna get to see them again!

Wow Shape The Above, I didn't expect this band to make anyone's list since it's a relatively new band that didn't do any internationnal touring yet, let alone national touring. Glad to see it in your list. :) Yeah, I got a good friend who lives in Germany and he's always keeping me up to date with ...

Here's an update on the popularity of the announcements as per the submissions in the 70K Unofficial app: https://i.ibb.co/x6WFnqb/combined.jpg I will try to keep sending updates if you guys are interested. Also, some new charts *might* come... SOON. Looks like I'm in the majority here. Top 6 bands...

All we can really say right now is, yo, there's not a lot of power metal booked right now.

This really doesn't bother me at all, but I know there are sailors/survivors that are power metal fans

Oh man, I forgot about Shining. That'd be an absolute must see.

Let it be clear I'm referring to the norwegian Shining, not the swedish Shining

I got several band requests under S:

Sarke
Shape The Above
Shining(Nor)
Slugdge
Sulphur Aeon

Just pick one, Andy

LMAO You know me well I am freaking out! Very excited with this announcement.

I can understand your excitement. Never heard them before and now I like them

Who?

T for Tomb Mold! Come on!

Meh, next! K for Keep of Kalessin

Yet another band I know nothing about...

Gimme Gorod, Galaktikon or Gojira!

Hard to tell whether this will be good or not, since there is nothing to hear from them yet.

Looks like we're still on the A game. ARCTURUS or ALKALOID, Skipper!

Well, that was fast! At The Gates is so fucking awesome, it makes me a happy sailor.

ARCTURUS OR ALKALOID!

Never paid attention to Cruachan before,we shall investigate...

A has to be Arcturus or Alkaloid, although Andy's "fine gentlemen" clue makes me think of Akercocke

Wilderun - Veil Of Imagination. FUCKING MASTERPIECE

Speaking of photos, did our group photo from last year ever surface?

Yes, it did. You even commented it with a "Huzzah!"

We agreed upon NOT doing it again in that Schooner Bar, way too crowded. Someone mentioned the Viking Crown, which I think it is well isolated for our needs BUT the only drawback being that the bar will be closed. As far as nametags go, not sure if user cherrythorne had some of them stickers left. A...

What a wonderful announcement!

It pisses me off when I hear people saying "not that great, I saw him already on his many tours"

Who the fuck cares?! The man is coming to play on the boat! And perhaps some Strapping Young Lad stuff?! STFU & GTFOH

Interesting! Need to listen to them more, tho....

Give us Dimmu Borgir!

Come oooon, Andyyyyy ... gives us some more good bands!

I prefer to Kampnear than to Kampfar

F is for First Fragment

Last gig: Inferi, Allegaeon
Next gig: Abbath

I have no clue who that band is.... homework for me, I guess

I call Keep of Kalessin!

Wintersun? Fuck yeah! Been wanting to see these dogs again since 2014, Kai Hahto was still around when I saw them.

S for Sarke, Shape The Above, Shining(Nor), Slugdge, Sulphur Aeon

Finally getting around to this. Not sure how I feel about it.

Let me help you with that: it's a fucking masterpiece, that's what it is!

Never understood the hatred towards Venom. I think they are OK, never seen them before so I'm actually curious.

LAY DOWN YOUR SOULS TO THE GODS ROCK N' ROLL!

My forum nickname is actually inspired by "Jotunheim" from that same album. 10/10 will cry during this set.

I was wondering about your forum username when I heard the album. This show is gonna be the bomb!
