Weekly Recap: 6/20-6/26

I started the week out on Monday asking for recommendations for posts. I was somewhat surprised at the response to be honest. I still have planned a couple of posts next week to cover everything. Expect a post about my opinions on Varg Vikernes/Burzum and a post about Norwegian vs. Swedish black metal. As Thursday is the first day of July, also keep an eye out for my Best of 2010 So Far post.

This week I finished my project of converting my tapes and records to CDs. I have yet to listen to them at this time to find out if the recording quality was any good. I'm not too worried about that though. It was a bit of a slow week at work. I only had court once this week. That's okay, because I have three criminal arraignments Monday morning alone. Hastings continued to confuse me as it stocked Danzig's new album. Still no Watain, Nevermore, or Nachtmystium though. My fiancee finished her first session of summer school. It will be nice that she won't have to study late at night for a week, until second session starts. My friend welcomed a baby boy on Thursday.

Ozzy Osbourne released a new album this week. I am not terribly interested in checking that out. Ozzy needs to retire. Danzig's new album was also released, which was surprisingly good. The Big Four tour is going reasonably well. I would love it if it came to the U.S.
