And somehow, I remember this. Being a Chicago metal/industrial kid made this story stand out for MANY reasons. Besides the fact that NIN was basicly a resident at Wax Trax (see Trent’s tee). #roots

You know that feeling in your gut when you turn in your term paper to your professor?! That’s how I felt when I saw this pic of fellow #metal journalist Laina Dawes & her chat with musician/writer @alexskolnick The realization that one of your idols, since age 16, will flip through those pages and discover just how potty-mouthed & unladylike you truly CAN be!!! 
AHHH! Fuck. This is worst than I thought… lmao #instagood #latergram #fbf #testament #waydh

“What do you MEAN Matt Barlow isn’t singing with Iced Earth?!” Again. I’ve been a looongtime fan of their’s and to hear that one of my all time favorite screamers wasn’t doing his duty on vocals for this year’s Worldwide Plagues Tour, I in turn, cried. Okay, I was really, really bummed but to my surprise once I stepped “into the pit”, FourteenG alum Into Eternity’s frontman, Stu Block, was at the helm. You couldn’t wipe the grin from both our faces!
Now, I’m happy again. The end.
