    Sarah has a wonderful taste.. She's having a crush on epic but not cheesy sounding metal as she has proven with Havukruunu (just one example) in the past. I mean Stormkeep, Spectral wound and Morgul Blade are fantastic pic's of the year. I had trouble believing these are American bands.. THEY sound totally European.
    Anyway, congrats and thanks to the whole team for the best and devoted metal content on YT. You are all incredibly warm characters with much passion for what you do.

Really eases my nerves to see that at least music production didn't come to a halt, when it feels otherwise that the time has stopped. My personal favorite album is by a rather small, pretty unknown band called Soulglass. Their debut album Odeth, that came out this year is probably one of my all time favorites tbh. \m/
