You really should edit "current music" to "current mainstream music"

There are fantastic things going on all over, people really trying to reach out & put about their own little niche scenes all over the place. In fact I had a psych band from Japan stay at mine just the other week, as they were trying to keep the costs down.

It really isn't hard to find these local scenes or the smaller more intement gigs with sites like bandcamp.

ne obliviscaris and wolves in the throne room are 2 other fantastic atmospheric black metal bands.

Thank you, from reading your post it has given me some ideas to play around with applying some of these incident data.
