APPALOOZA Brittany, France

The Burden of Restlessness
by King Buffalo
supported by 15 fans who also own “Cradle To The Grave”

by Sergeant Thunderhoof
supported by 11 fans who also own “Cradle To The Grave”

This is possibly the greatest concept album ever made. The fellas have really outdone themselves. This could be the peak, the very top of the bell curve in regards to both the genre and to metal as a whole. What can you say about what need not be elaborated on? Its perfect.
