In this journal entry I'll keep track of my favorite albums of this year, mostly as a personal to-buy list, but also for anyone with a similar taste in music to discover some good stuff.
I find that I always have a hard time writing a "best of" list at the end of the year, since I end up forgetting far too much. I'll just keep updating this list throughout the year.

I decided to make my planning for GMM 2008 in advance.
Hopefully, I'll be able to watch as many bands as possible each day, but if tiredness strikes, I'll skip the less important ones.

Legend:
========
Bold - Bands I don't want to miss at any cost
-
Italic - Bands I'm pretty interested in, but can afford to miss if anything else comes inbetween
-
Normal - My best choice to fill the emptiness between the bands I want to see. I can miss these, no problems..
-
(Inbetween brackets) - Overlaps with another band

==FRIDAY==

BEHEMOTH - 14.50-15.30…

Recently I've been getting more and more into black metal.
At first I never would've thought that I would like the genre, but because of the harder pagan metal, I got into it in the end.

I'll be keeping a list of all black metal bands I listen to in here, in the same vain as my Pagan/Folk/Viking Metal list.
If some of you with more thorough knowledge of the genre can recommend me similar artists or other great music, don't hesitate to comment or shout :)

Lately I'm listening to a lot of pagan, viking and folk metal.
I'm always looking for new bands, so I decided to make a list of all the bands I'm listening to right now, and hopefully one of you guys can recommend me some more..
