    Hey all, The currrent Opinion piece seems to have caused some hectic arguing. Cool. Just had a thought I thought I'd run by you: would any of you be interested in reading an interview with one of the mentioned metallic bands on the topic as a follow-up? Might be able to wangle a few minutes... Should probably have run it by Eoghan first, but hey wanna know if your interested?

    I'd be interested as long as the interview asks the mentioned band about topics raised in the Opinion Piece.

    I tend not to be too interested in reading interviews with bands I haven't heard of. You've generally got to have an interest in the band for an interview to make compelling reading. I'd say go for it, but you are going to have a challenge on your hands to mae it interesting, to use a journalistic cliche, you've got to "find an angle". Maybe as Gar said, tie it in ith your Opinion piece, ask questions not just about the band themselves but the entire metal scene and the wider music scene and how they see themselves fitting into it. Just a thought, it's your piece, go with your own instincts.

    That was indeed the plan. I shall get to "finding an angle"...
