The new YOB album, "In Our Blood" is doom as ****.

This new Fistula full length is dirty. They paired up with the best DIY label, imo, TLAL.

So this fest was pretty bad. At one point, I saw a fat guy in sweatpants push an office chair to the front of the stage so he could sit and watch one of the bands.

That said, my scouting report paid off and Snowchild (I know, right) absolutely killed it. Straight up Ozzy worship, but these guys were good.
