They're kinda cool. Their selftitled album was a while back already. Looking forward to this one.

Their official site has a bit of text next to the Final Feast single in their discography section: 初回限定盤：AVCD-48219/B / ￥2,625（税込） 全2曲＋PV1曲 DEAD ENDの復刻ステッカー第二弾！！ 80年代の最盛期ともいえるメジャーデビュー後、 GHOST OF ROMANCE期、shambara期のロゴステッカーを2種類封入！！DEAD ENDは作品によって各々ロゴが違うので、今回の正規復刻は大変貴重なもの。『Final Feast』の初回生産限定盤でしか入手出来ない超レアアイテムを封入！ 通常盤：AVCD-48220 / ￥1,050（税込） 全2曲 It says something about Ghost of Romance and Shambara but I have no clue... does anyone know what it says?

Shame about the bad vocalist... I didn't expect D'espairsRay members would settle for this guy.

Anette did a good job. Her vocals are one of the few good things about the album. This new album is a big step down from the previous one. DPP wasn't a masterpiece by any means but at least it sounded refreshing and the songs were good as standalone tracks. Imaginaerum is like DPP as a musical/film score version mixed with some new orchestra "epic" ridiculousness that makes me laugh. And again they did nothing with the guitars which is why I wonder if they still call themselves a metalband... or rockband even? They're none of that. Maybe they'll be decent again if they replace the guitarist with someone who is actually good. But that will only work if Tuomas gets knocked off of his lonely throne on which he writes this bombastic crap. Someone, smack some sense into them. They're trying to do things way above their capabilities.

This was an epic letdown. They tried to make everything on this album too "epic" sounding... so that it actually becomes one big joke. Sure, there are some nice compositions scattered throughout the album, but generally it's boring and laughable. How can these orchestral bombastic compositions on nearly every song not get tiresome? It's TOO much, Tuomas, WAY TOO MUCH. And the guitars? Did they even try? That stupid recycled bullshit sounds the same on every song... and every song of theirs since the album Once. Also, Last of the Wilds can be heard quite clearly throughout the entire thing. I really liked that song on Dark Passion Play, but this is too much. They didn't even bother to change that melody... well, they did only a little bit. Not quite enough. I guess they thought "oh we got positive comments on that song, let's stretch it all over our new album, the mindless fans would probably fap all over it". Huge disappointment. I can't believe this once was my favorite band. Oh well, I was 16 back then. That says enough.

The vocalist of Megaromania is bad. He would even be capable of making the visitors of a karaoke bar flee in terror.

Wow, I love the transition from the Numa Numa song to Friday. Amazing video!

It's nice to see another Dutch person who likes DEAD END. I expect their next announcement to be an album... it just has to be. They're doing great so far.

It is awesome. Just now some assassin tried to murder me out of nowhere. Turned out he was carrying a letter with my name written on it and someone wanted me dead. Completely random though, because there's no quest related to this and no quest has been started when I read the letter. I love these kind of things. The world lives!

Bought the game today. It is beyond epic! The scenery is beautiful. Everything is beautiful. And there's so much to do. Every corner of every town has people in need of your help. I think I have like 20 smaller side quests right now, and I've only just started. Strangers looking for a lost friend, some woman wanting me to take on some bears or investigate a haunted mansion. The world lives and breathes! There are even more decisions to be made. Smaller ones like choosing a side between two rivals (two guys in love with the same woman for example) are much more common now. Also, the difficulty is just great! The main quest leads me up a huge mountain right now but the journey is dangerous with many strong creatures at a low level that I simply can't take on yet. Forcing me to do other stuff untill I have more health and better equipment. It's perfect if you just leave the difficulty as the default one. Every part of the world is truly unique. They didn't lie when they said no dungeon is the same. You'll come across all kinds of surprises, trust me! Only thing that bothers me is that you have to switch your weaponry/magic spells very often. Dropping in and out of menus all the time. I find myself doing this more often than in Morrowind/Oblivion. But maybe that'll change later on when my character gets stronger. THIS GAME

Definitely getting this. From what I've seen so far, this could very well be the best game of 2011.

2. NO MORE NUKES PLAY THE GUITAR What? Jesus Christ...

Storytime isn't anything special. It's a very predictable easy listening single with boring guitars (but Nightwish always has boring guitars) but with a catchy melody. It's much like what Amaranth was for Dark Passion Play but I think I prefer Amaranth still... But we all know Nightwish almost always comes with predictable singles to gain some radio plays and attention from the mainstream music magazines, reviewers, websites etc, and the full albums turn out to have much more interesting music on them. If you think Storytime is "amazing", the rest of the album will most likely be even better.

The price seems about right... if you like that mirror. It's truly a unique item and I'm pretty sure you would pay a lot for that if it happened to be sold seperately. I heard some people who have already listened to the album. I can't wait to hear it myself.

The first song they released before their last album was good too, but album itself was boring. So I'm not all that excited yet. They have to set things right first!

Is it Minato drumming in the new PV? Or is it someone else? I can't see. I'm so glad they continue to make music. They may never become the perfect '80's DEAD END again, but they're still great.

Very nice!

In Japanese music, that's easy for me: DEAD END. Pretty much all of their old guitar solos are stunning. Serafine, Serpent Silver and Skeleton Circus are some songs which have magnificent solos that even X Japan can't touch with most of theirs. That says something.

After listening to that Youtube recording, I expect this to be quite awful.

Maki Asakawa, there's nothing quite like her voice. Shiina Ringo, Satoko (me-al art), Jun Togawa and OLIVIA are great too.

Cupcake. The Who or The Doors?

Nintendo DS. For Pokemon games only. I wouldn't know what else to do with those things. Electric powered cars or gas powered cars?

Dead Snow Well, actually, I kind of stopped watching after the first bad guys showed up. It's some disgustingly bad Norwegian movie about angry Nazi zombies. I don't know why the hell anybody would like this. Only recommended if you like ridiculously bad stuff. Good luck.

You're quite right. We have no clue. But that's actually quite logical. You see, if a girl acts "different" when being around a certain someone, how would that certain someone even know? He doesn't know her any other way! Or well, at least not long enough to pick up the difference in behaviour. It also doesn't help that our society is based on the whole "the guy should make the first move" concept. We ALL know that it's not necessarily the only option, but it's stuck with us anyway. If a guy asks a girl out, it's pretty obvious he likes her in most cases. So if you're a girl, why would you ask HIM to hang out when you could just wait a while and see if he asks YOU out? If he does, you've pretty much got confirmation already. So, girls lean back more and wait for what's going to happen. And by the time they eventually decide to make the first move, and the guy hasn't done anything yet, it's probably going to be meaningless. If the guy liked her too then he would've been earlier with the move because of the "the guy should make the first move" concept in the back of his head. If that makes sense. Summary: you're quite right. We have no clue.
