   Happy Fourth Of July, Everyone!
Hey guys! HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!! *pops fireworks* I hope you all have a good holiday weekend over the next two days.

And yes, as I've been stressing for the last week, please keep praying for Karen's finger! ^_^ From what she's told me, it's doing a lot better, but it's still healing so please keep praying for her if you will. We're all looking out for you, Karen!!! *HANDS CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE SANDWICH*

Okay, Thursday I went with my grandma to Savannah to go look for the Gospel Of Filth after we went to her doctors appointment. Well, when we got to Barnes & Noble, I couldn't find the book. I asked the girl working there if they had it and when she looked it up she said that it was supposed to come out today but that the publisher had not released it as of yet. So we went to Books-A-Million and I got the same response. Then I went to the new mall and went in Waldenbooks where I used my cool discount to get Vol. 7 through 10 of Angel Sanctuary. And Randi's that night, I had a good lesson, though I do have some practicing to do. ^^

Friday, I found out that my mom set me up for an eye doctor checkup in Svannah, so I had to go back. >__< Luckily, I had my iPod and my Angel Sanctuarys to pass time. I read all of themexcept the last chapter in book 10 on my way there and on the way back. Also, when I got back, I learned As I Lay Dying's "Undefined" on my guitar. That night, I also shaped the buckles to my Katan suit out of model magic and let them dry over night.

Saturday, my mom says that she's going to Savannah again, and since I was running out of Angel Sanctuarys, I went! ^_^ We went to Barnes & Noble where I got AS Vol. 11 - 14. Then, I went to F.Y.E. where I got the new Revolver magazine! THE UNHOLY ALLIANCE TOUR!!!! LAMB OF GOD!!!! Sorry, I got excited. XDD After that, me and mom figured out what we could do for my Katan earring. We bought these little clip-on ones at a Belks and I got these cross earrings at Hot Topic and we slipped the hook for the cross ones through this hole in the clip-ons. ^_^ Also at HT, I bought a Cradle Of Filth patch that I'm gonna sew onto my black jeans. FILTH!!!!!! That's neccasary. XD Then, after lunch at Olive Garden, we went to Hancock's where I got the Shigure stuff. Then we went to the Savannah Mall where I got silver paint and a nice treat.

Yesterday, I spent some time alone to paint my Katan buckles. Also, I got some time to partially cut out my Shigure costume. I didn't get all of it cut out but I will get back to it as soon as possible. I also found out that the Cradle book will now be released on Halloween. Makes sense. XDD Also, I found something on YouTube so good, so mindblowing, that it made me go insane with happiness!!!! But you'll have to wait til Thursday to see that. ^^ It's a surprise!

Okay, I have something VERY unusual for you guys today!

Go to that link and watch that! XDD I'll give you $100, no $1,000 if you can understand one complete sentence that that guy says other than "You understand what I'm saying?" XD And no, that's not staged. That's real!!! O_O He had to be OUT. OF. HIS. ...... MIIIIIIIIND!!!!!!!!!!!! Me and my cousin Brett found that years ago and we could not stop laughing at that dude. XDDDD

Okay, well it seems that the vote is in and black metal has won. So, the video this time will be the Band Of The Month! It's Dimmu Borgir with "Progenies Of The Graet Apocalypse" off their album "Death Cult Armageddon". This video epitomizes darkness and evil, and for some reason this video got voted the fourth best metal video of the new millenium a few years ago. XD But yes, nice vid so check it out. Also, there is a censored and uncensored version of this video, so I've put both up here for you. Warning! The uncensored vid has nudity, distubing psuedo-religious images, and WAAAAAAAY too much blood. XDD Enjoy!

With that, it's time for a new Band Of The Month, this month's being Dimmu Borgir! Dimmu Borgir in American means "Dark Fortress". Dimmu hail from Norway and are very accepted in the metal community as one of the heaviest acts in the industry, despite their melodic qualities. After starting out in the underground scene, they have finally broken through to a mainstream audience, thanks to tours alongside bands such as Cradle Of Filth and festivals such as Ozzfest. The current lineup is as follows:
Shagrath - Vocals
Silenoz - Guitar
Galder - Lead guitar
Vortex - Bass & Opera Vocals
Mustis - Keyboards
As of lately, they haven't had a drummer. They recently had Nicholas Barker, the former Cradle Of Filth drummer do the "Death Cult Armegeddon" album, but recently they have had Mayhem's Hellhammer take over drumming for the reissue of "Stormblast" and Hellhammer will be on their new album as well. Their albums so far are:
For All Tid - 1995
Stormblast - 1996
Devil's Path - 1996
Enthrone Darkness Triumphant - 1997
Godless Savage Garden - 1998
Spiritual Black Dimensions - 1999
Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia - 2001
Death Cult Armageddon - 2003
Stormblast (Re-recorded) - 2005
Check em out. I think you might like them.

This week's question: What are your plans for this 4th of July?
