2015 highlight of the year
A lot of great music was released this year across a lot of genres. Metal, hardcore and punk rock is in a good place right now. Good times.
prediction for 2016
My desires are modest. Hopefully Black Sabbath decide to record one more album with Bill Ward. Also OC melodic hardcore veterans Ignite will be releasing their first in over ten years. Expectations for this one are high.
