Resurrection is the second studio album of Geoff Tate’s project named Operation: Mindcrime, and is also part two of a trilogy story.

An important update from your roving reporter Iris… — Grendel HeadQuarters

Hey all! As you may, or may not know… I haven’t posted much the last couple of weeks. No reviews, no playlists or personal blogs, only my radio interviews and my new radio show named SexCake.
 
The reason why I haven’t posted any reviews and other stuff is because there are a lot of things going on. First or all, my brand new laptop broke down because of a hard disk failure (which seems to be sadly quite common with the model I had). Luckily I got my cash back and bought another laptop, which I’m working on now.
 
The second thing that’s going on is, sadly, not something related to technical difficulties. My private life is one big mess at the moment. Some people know what’s going on, some don’t, and some don’t give a shit.
 
Because my private life is one big mess at the moment it drains tons of energy from me. I have no inspiration to write reviews, but somehow doing interviews works as a relief/distraction, so I try to keep doing interviews, and also more episodes of the show SexCake.
 
I want to say sorry to all the artists, bands, readers and colleagues. I’m very sorry that because of my private situation I’m not able to write any reviews or playlists.
 
The reason why I don’t reply on all my personal messages on Facebook and emails is because I already lost my overview, and just like writing reviews, I have no energy or inspiration to reply to them all. I’m very, very sorry about that too.
 
I don’t know when my private life will be less turbulent. My private life has been a mess for years, I already thought I had hit rock bottom, but it seems that it has become even worse.
 
Again, I’m very sorry.
 
Big hugs from a desperate, tired roving reporter,
 
Iris, aka Ier.
