I should just take this opportunity to thank all those who welcomed me back. And Batty. Sorry I didn't thank you all personally, but I'm just a lazy bastard, as you know. So thanks. It's good to be back.

Adapt and survive... Now that I'm back, things will just go back to normal, yes? Man, you people do not know me, do you? Of course I'm about to branch out yet again and shake things up. Although I'm delighted to see that my journal has reached over 300,000 views (a good 40-50,000 of those obviously having occurred while I was away, therefore nothing was updated) it's clear that this, my first journal, has become somewhat bloated and hard to navigate. The chances of anyone finding what they're looking for without the aid of a team of Huskies seem remote. Even I don't know where to look for things anymore! Further, with this journal now becoming essentially a vehicle for The Great Discography Project, and this likely to remain the case for many years, I've decided to open two more new journals in order to continue to pursue my two first loves, Progressive Rock and Heavy Metal Therefore, any articles or reviews or series pertaining to either will shortly be moved from this journal to their new home. This is not to say that they will be deleted from this journal: they will not. However it will make it easier for those who are into either subgenre to find stuff they may be interested in instead of having to wade through a lot of stuff they are not. It will also allow me to streamline the new journals to feature only the types of music I want to. The likes of the three Metal Months will be moved, as will the NWOBHM series, and indices will open each journal, linked, so that you can easily find what you're looking for. Of course, there will be new stuff, and lots of it, but initially I'll be concentrating on moving the old stuff. It may be a chance for those who missed out on Metal Month, or certain reviews, to read them fresh, or for anyone who wishes to re-read something but hasn't been able to find it in my main journal here, to locate it much more easily. At worst, it'll give Batty a headache I'm sure. Some of my other journals will be closing; the likes of the "1001 Metal Albums" will be merged with the new Metal one, while others may just be wound up altogether. Haven't quite decided yet what I'm keeping other than the main ones. Any new reviews that are posted here as part of a discography that happens to fall into the category of prog or metal will at some point also be moved to the appropriate journal, though they will remain here as part of the GDP. So I'll start doing that probably tomorrow, and the new journals will surface then. If you're into either prog or metal, hope to see you there!

Thanks Chula. Amazing how many people pretend to have missed you, as long as you sign the cheques, huh?
Seriously, thanks. Good to be back.
