I don’t know why I continue reporting on European metal festivals. It’s like a form of self-torture. I know we have a lot of European readers, and I suppose I could justify writing posts like this one as a selfless act of regard for their interests. But as much as I love our European readers, I love myself more, so it still doesn’t quite make sense. I suppose masochism could be another explanation. I’ll have to think more about that possibility as soon as I finish adding the latest switchblade cuts to my arms.
Where was I? Oh yeah, another European metal festival. Actually, it’s not just metal. The INCUBATE FESTIVAL, which will take place September 16-22, 2013, in Tilburg (The Netherlands) will feature 200 artists performing in more than 20 venues. But the ones I care about are splashed across that flyer you see above — metal bands such as Immortal, Mayhem, Gehenna, Khold, Behexen, Woe, Brutal Truth, Dragged Into Sunlight, and Sonne Adam.
What a ridiculously good line-up. Except for Mayhem, I’ve never seen any of those bands I just listed in a live performance. I wish I could. But Tilburg is too far away and the tech geeks in Seattle still haven’t perfected teleporter technology, and oh pitiful me. If you can go, check out details here:

This could be the beginning of a beautiful sado-masochistic friendship.
I can only make it to “Gloomy Sunday” due to a friends wedding, so I’m a little masochistic posting it myself. Because that is perhaps the best Death Metal lineup I’ve ever seen.
Woe dropped off last week. Grim frowning emoticon.
You’re still coming to Europe? Are the dates finalized?
Afraid not. We had to put off the whole trip and are doing some US dates instead. Trying for Europe later this year or early next year.
Damn… But I hope to see you later then.
Crud.
Ah cool I live barely an hour from Tilburg. Might just go and check this out!
Agree 100%…transporter technology is a must. I’m off to the lab.
Bless you. You are doing god’s work. Or in this case, Satan’s work. We’re behind you all the way.
