I really heard next to nothing when it came to new music. I did like the releases by Megadeth, Opeth, John Carpenter, and Iggy Pop. The new ones by Metallica and Testament were enjoyable, if not all that memorable.

Update: I'm four tracks into the new Anthrax, and it's not bad.
This is a snakeskin jacket. And for me it's a symbol of my individuality and my belief in personal freedom.
