    Seasons in the Liquid Abyss

    Go out on almost any night in Cape Town and you're sure to find live bands playing somewhere. And if it's not indie rock, then it's probably metal! Live gigs have become something of a convenience for many metalheads, where the lure of seeing their favourite locals bands on stage is completely shattered by the sheer saturation of events.

They didn’t actually play and were replaced last minute by the now infamous Anonymous! I can’t complain too much about the change, as they knew all of Stellitius’ material. They were
