No one really wants to think about dying but it’s the one certainty we all will have in common someday. My only hope is to have left behind enough memories with others to keep me around for a while. Assuming I die before my friends Jon and Ingmar, I would be more than honored if [...]

Random Found – Suckerpunch
Well, this really isn’t all that random if you follow movie news at all, but I’m already looking to preorder this on Bluray even though the damned movie doesn’t come out until next year. I see it as a life changing experience…
30 Day Music Meme Day 23. A Song That You Want To Play At Your Wedding
As we near the back end of this meme I hit a wall. Not really any good reason to get married except to hold a great party where everyone pretends it’s a good thing that you’ve entered their section of Hel and they give you a bunch of presents and condolences. That being said, I [...]
30 Day Music Meme Day 22. A Song That You Listen To When You’re Sad
This is another hard one. I don’t really get sad all that often but when it starts setting in there can be a couple different directions to go. If I want to feel happier and get out of the funk I throw on some Korpiklaani or Finntroll. There are just some songs that you just [...]

30 Day Music Meme Day 21. A Song That You Listen To When You’re Happy
I found this band many, many years ago when I was on a metal site looking for some new Metal. Among the list of bands I recognized – Immortal, Enslaved, Behemoth – there was Korpiklaani from Finland. What was strange about this band was that all the other bands had album titles like ‘Morbid Rending [...]
30 Day Music Meme Day 20. A Song That You Listen To When You’re Angry
Anger is a gift (quoted from a different song tho…) The live version of this on ‘In Case You Didn’t Feel Like Showing Up’ is by far the best, angriest, most pissed off version of Stigmata. I first heard the studio recording and liked it, but it wasn’t until the live version came out that [...]
30 Day Music Meme Day 19. A Song From Your Favorite Album
There are few perfect albums. Most albums that are any good at all have one or two great songs, a couple more good ones and hopefully the rest are o.k. Then, occasionally, an album comes along that glues your ass to a chair or headphones on your skull and you can do nothing but lose [...]
30 Day Music Meme Day 18. A Song That You Wish You Heard On The Radio
As mentioned in the last post, I don’t listen to the radio. Unless I feel like classic rock, there just isn’t enough decent music played on the air to tolerate the commercials and DJs and I really don’t like the idea of paying for satellite radio just so I can lose money listening to somebody [...]
