One of the ways that I try to get around writing one of these introductions to an episode (which is coincidentally the hardest part about putting together an episode) is to take a peek at Wikipedia to see if there's anything interesting related to the episode number. Apparently 88 is considered by the Chinese to be a number of fortune and good luck which is something that I wish for you as you listen to this episode. As luck would have it there's 8 tracks in this episode as well full of the best Creative Commons Licensed Metal Music the net has to offer including MUERTE POR MIL CORTES, The Conjuration, Sick Of Hailstone, Lothorian, Deep Space Destructors, Sarin, Mighty Zazuum, and Another Destiny Project. But lest you think this is "bye-bye" for Open Metalcast feat not: there's still plenty of music to explore. And as long as there's a Wikipedia there'll be something for you to read along with it. Shownotes after the break.
