Hello soundshockers and rockers till the dawn !

WHOOOOOAAAA. It's been a busy few months. For most of you will have attended a festival or two over the last few months. So we had the fantastic Download Festival, featuring Def Lepperd, Anvil, Dream Theater and Opeth + many many more, what a weekend. Then we had the ecelctic and wonderous Supersonic Festival in Birmingham, a very diverse line-up and collections of installation art all around the place made for one hell of an experience. The first Sonisphere in Knebworth was a crazy but too short weekend, with Metallica, Thunder, Mastodon, Heaven & Hell and Alice In Chains being certain highlights amongst the drinking and sunburn; And finally we had Bloodstock Open Air in Derby last weekend, a mighty line-up which included, Cradle Of Filth, who had to cut down their set because of a knocked out guitarist. Our favourites Abgott, The Rotted and Anathema also delighted fans. You can read about all of these on the site, so please do and feel free to share your comments with us.

Errrr...we have also joined the rapidly increasing ranks of the Twitterati, so you follow us on www.twitter.com/soundshockuk.

So, it has been busy, we hope we fill your appetite for rock and metal and you can continue to rock on another day.

Cheers
