Really kinda angry about the Oil Spill in the Gulf, and it's actually grinding my gears pretty everyday!
OK, so the new A7X album will be out soon. I for one am really looking forward to it. I know it's going to be amazing. The band have had a really up and down year. They so tragically lost their drummer "The Rev" Xmas 2009. This is the worst thing that can ever happen to a band. Lose a member and best friend. He was so young, and so talented. He will always be missed. The band went on to record what will probably be their best album to date, and with Jimmy's drumming hero, Mike Portnoy from Dream Theater. I know that Mike will have done the most amazing job. He can be seen this summer on tour with DT supporting Iron Maiden, then with A7X during August/Sept/Oct.
