Ghost – Part 1

Checked my twitter today and saw that Mr. Townsend had posted this awesome video up. I hadn’t heard anything from “Ghost” ’till now, and man does it sound good.

Uaral still got it

If you’re not familiar with Chile’s Doom Folk duo “Uaral” you’re missing out on some truly amazing music. I mean, they do have certain quirks that may not be immediately likeable to everyone (crying vocals, crazy ass banshee-like screaming, an obsession with depression), but the music is absolutely gorgeous.

I was listening to their latest today, “Lamentos a Poema Muerto”, and decided to check out their website to see if they had finally finished it and maybe find a hint of a future release. Turns out the site is still not up completely, but they did upload a “fragment of an un-edited composition”. Hopefully it’ll make it onto their next full release, because it’s fucking beautiful.

Jari Mäenpää: “Fuck ‘TIME’, I’m playing Farmville”

That’s right people. The one and only Jari Mäenpää is now on Facebook. You can find his profile at this address, and if that’s not working for you, just search for “Jari Mäenpää Wintersun” within Facebook.

Don’t worry about this not being legit, as the man himself posted it on the official Wintersun boards. “Who gives a shit?” would probably be the appropriate reaction to this, but I can’t help my fanboy self. Friend Request sent!

Megadeth bassist Dave Ellefson has picked up the camera on the American Carnage tour to talk with the guys behind the scenes. Check out the sound and light boards in the youtube videos.

BTW, I’m thinking of organizing play sessions on Xbox live better for MW2, maybe through the Facebook group or something. If you haven’t yet, add me to your friends: skeksys.

Old Man Full Force Hate

Weekend Eroica

It’s the weekend and I’m bored as fuck. At least I don’t fucking clap to slow ballads. Motherfucking canadians:

Ahab’s Old Thunder

This is off their previous album, “The Call of the Wretched Sea”. I will definitely be playing some more of these guys on the upcoming episode.
