wow, now this my friends is a goddamn music-video...

jeesus you could print every single frame of that MV out as a wallpaper, brilliant sets, lightning, camera, choreography, costumes, makeup etcetcetc...

I think they should've perhaps toned a bit down on teh sexy, not because i find it too much or anything, but the inevitable "scandal" or discussion or whatevs will probably distract from just how good this is (let's hope i'm wrong).

EDIT: well, that would be self-censorship then though, which sucks even more.. so all thumbs up for ga in and please go on...

one of the very few times, that i'm actually interested in finding out the lyrics, to understand all the symbolism...

ah yes, i kinda like the song too

if the album is only half as exciting as that trailer it's gonna be a huge step up. here's to being hyped again (after for the last three times swearing to completely give up on this band...)

i listened through this just now, it is indeed as you said very nice for playing it along sth! i had it as background for some let's play videos and interviews, might do that again ^^

keep up the good stuff

i just found some pretty old project of mine on an external HD which is probably about 2010-ish and uploaded it, as i find it pretty decent actually. if i remember correctly this is heavily inspired by MUCC - Soushin no Koe (?)

very distorted, gloomy dark rock stuffs

those are some nice lists, will go through them as soon as i'm at home with my stereo again.

 

 

Ringo's very recent release may have disappointed most by judgement of her Last.fm shoutbox...

also i don't really see what's up with that. I found her latest album pretty dope actually, it has 3 or so killer tracks, a bunch of pretty dope ones plus maybe one crappy one. that's fine in my books... I may be biased tho (peeksatavatarandsignature*)

is this going to be visual kei's "duke nukem forever"?

(EDIT: more fitting analogy would probably be "chinese democracy")

well, time to test out that new soundcloud code of yours monsieur le MH...

this was my bachelors-project. originally this is a mix in 9.1 Three-Dimensional-Surround

now for us mere mortals I did a stereo-mix aswell, although that's obviously not nearly as impressive as the full thing

nonetheless i would recommend good headphones to listen to it, also: more loud = more good

The Novembers are truly a great band. All releases since 2011 have been nothing short of amazing.

qfft

zeitgeist is the most outstanding release though by a mile

i think this might be new sounds nice so far

BABYMETAL headlining over the likes of DIR EN GREY, Saint Vitus, Hatebreed, Testament, Orange Goblin, Exodus, Gojira, and Kreator? The everloving fuck?

know of a thing called the alphabet? also, why not?

randomly dropping in here because reasons...

maaaaaan i whant that guitar <3 <3

but those duesenbergs are way out of my pricerange. maybe i can spot a decent knockoff somewhere or a broken one...

finally watched gone girl today, man what a great movie. i know some people see some flaws in there with pacing and story inconsistency and they're probably right, still man what a great movie, fincher just always manages to deliver the good stuff. that's totally my kind of movie, i love the characters and or love to hate them

those are some pretty sweet covers!

also it's weird hearing something shiina related actually sounding good

finally after 170 hours i finished dragon age inquisition.

next on the map is xenoblade chronicles on dolphin emulator seeing how hype everyone seems to be about it...

EDIT: i'm not sure if i somehow fucked up the config for my 360-pad, but is it normal that the camera in xenoblade feels like i'm maneuvering a bus through drying slime? it's extremely sluggish wich sucks bigtime and i'm already tempted to ditch it and try sth else, as the performace on the emulator also has some major issues when much is going on...

Tokyo Ghoul √A's opening is fucking garbage compared to the first season. 

^2

stuff I recommend so far are; Ansatsu Kyoushitsu and Death Parade. if you watched the first seasons of Tokyo Ghoul and/or Aldnoah Zero the both of those are returning with new cours this season. Also Durarara!! is back after 5 years! so if you watched the original series definitely check it out.

i'm watching exactly those, except for aldnoah as i didn't watch the first season. i'm kind of lukewarm on the most of them so far, but hey, it's only been one episode...

assass-classroom was enjoyable, but i'm sceptical if the bonus of it's ridicculous setting and sheer weirdness will carry the attention longer than the first episode, but dunno, the manga is supposed to be really good so i still have my hopes up

tokyo ghoul started nice, introduced a shitton of characters and regions and whatnot, so i don't understand anything so far (can't really recall that much plotwise from the ending of last season, so that might be a bit of a problem there ) but it starts with a bang and lots of potential

death parade didn't really offer that much so far, as i already knew the OVA or oneshot or whatever, which is basicly the same, just with other candidates. could be cool but the opening makes me fear a bit that the overarching plot might turn out really not that fitting, that's just speculation at this point tho

didn't remember durarara beeing so hectic and loud, but really don't remember that much about durarara in the first place, so maybe need to skimm through the first season again. looks fantastic style-wise so far tho.

so yeah, nothing here that i'm particularly hype about so far, but lets see where these things are going in the upcoming weeks

i hust want to add, that my inner 12 year old had to giggle at this

pfffffthuehuehue....hue... i'm so sorry, i'll show myself out...

there's one pretty cool MUCC pic with them wearing kimonos somewhere around the internet, which would just be perfect banner-fodder, that'd be my vote

btw here is the full thing

guitarwankery is over 9000!

not too fond about the singalong part tho, but i guess this is gonna be kewl at live-shows

EDIT:

@wikkit below: yep, this is what i was referring to

i agree. no matter how it turns out, a huge proportion of the people will turn away, as the thrill of the novelty will be gone. this time around they have to convince people to stay for the music. many (myself included) argue, that they only became this famous in the west and in the metal circles, because besides being gimmicky the music itself was proper, clever and heartfelt.

now this second time around they need to achieve the difficult to again bring something new and quirky to the table, while at the same time being the solidest as fuckest metal record you can imagine. that sample seems like they at least have this second point already covered pretty much.

man what a hymn...

can't wait for their comeback, let's see if they manage to be more than just a one time curiosity

dragon age inquisition. already about 80 hours in and i think i still haven't even finished half of it.

Currently specing my party up for the first dragon fight (which has profoundly kicked my ass already a few times, i think i'm still a bit underlevel).

i love it to bits, it looks gorgeous, the characters are without exception great and wellwritten/-voiced the atmosphere is nice and it's insanely big scale.

that beeing said i think i need to ditch a whole lot of how i play this game.

i'm usually close to a completionist when it comes to RPGs because side-quests are usually so cool.

problem with DAI is, it kinda has a MMORPG attached to it's core game with all the usual MMO quests, and they suck bigtime.

especially when it's so many.

whole areas have only maybe one relevant character to speak to in it. but then they are completely filled with collect some of this, hunt those, clear out these camps A, B and C, protect that etcetc.

i think it would have benefitted a LOT if it was more streamlined to the actual main and character quests.

still one of the best games i played in recent years, i'll probably have a second playthrough, just to check out a second set of a party and a main with different values.

this time i'm a male elf mage, party usually with dorian, cassandra and cole.

naturally i'm in favor of free mages, also pretty much goodwilled but flatout atheist.

so the next one will probably be a female human shield-warrior

(btw. warrior is such a badass and complex class to play in this, usually warrior is kinda dumb, but here, maaaaan)

evil/egoistical, possibly racist and super religious, with vivienne, iron bull and sera. maybe vivienne, solas and sera, not sure...

EDIT: also, i'm playing entirely in tactical on nightmare, maybe to change things up and speed them up a bit the second playthrough in action-mode on normal or easy...

i've seen everybody and their dogs fan-rage about that d'angelo album, and that sample shows me why that might be. have to chekc this one out for sure, aswell as all the rest, my library has been kinda static these past months so this and the 25-mh-mas list are very appreciated

nah combi ticket goes for 60 quid

 

I'll be in London. And perhaps Essen.

what i meant with that was: damn, 35 bucks each
