Sadly, I must once again put The Plague on hiatus.  Even with the immense help of writer Dave Schalek (who continues to contribute regularly to About.com and Live4Metal), I have been unable to keep this site updated as regularly and fully as I would like.  Therefore, rather than limp along with these small, sporadic updates, I am going to put The Plague back in stasis and return to contributing to Outburn Magazine for now.  This site will remain here as an archive though so hopefully people will continue to find it useful as a resource.

Thanks to all the readers, bands, publicists and contributors who made The Plague possible all these years!
