98 KUPD Into The Pit

05/12/2026

Year number 4 and Northwest Terror Fest isn't just about the metal, it's about the city. The city that had the personality to bring this festival together (or continue it with a new breath), to have the community behind it and the passion for metal which of course are the people in that city and the ones who travel to it. The crew, the bands, the promoters, the sponsors and the headbangers. We have all gotten into this industry for one reason or another and we choose to stay in it sometimes for different ones. Maybe a fan becomes part of the industry while other industry people decide to hang it up to be strictly fans again. I've been on both sides of that fence and it's still hard to say what one I appreciate more. Thanks to you all and remember the ones before you, the current ones, the ones who are struggling, the ones who help those others out and the new generation that believe it or not, will teach us all a thing or two if you're open to it. The future can be bright. Even though we're all doomed in a sense, I'm hopeful.
And as I saved this as a draft and did not post immediately, that hope has already turned into the return of Southwest Terror Fest a few hours after I wrote this. Full circle appreciation, thank you

Just a highlight of some of the amazing bands on day 2 of . was the one band above all and they did not disappoint. Found a bunch of other cool bands today too which is always a treat. I have been exposed to many bands I've never heard of in this fest for the past four years and for that I am thankful

I still miss Brutal Nature Dry IPA... But this is double the brewtality!!!

Check out their new brew "Death To IPA" and heed the call of the most natural thing in the world.... Death.... To IPA. Let the haziness blind your soul and the double hops strangle your taste buds. May your coffin be comfy, your life be long and your body be battered with malty mayhem. Toast to your doom, your death and your desire for deliciousness. May Death To IPA give you a reason to live!!! (Here are a few more exclamation points if you're more excited than me --> "!!!!!!" use what you need and leave the rest for others please)

(This is not a paid ad, but it could be.... honestly I just like Arizona Wilderness Brewing Co beer, enjoy!)
