Sick Saturday

It's a beautiful spring Saturday and I am not only sick but sitting inside working. This would really suck if it wasn't for the fact that I'm reviewing the re-release of the letlive. album "Fake History", out on April 11. The album which contains three new tracks is something way out of the ordinary and if you've missed the L.A. band before here's a (sick) taste of what they do:


letlive. - "The Sick, Sick, 6.8 Billion"

It's not the end of the world

Thank you Vicky, for showing me this.

BMTH birthday with blessed black ballons

BRING ME THE HORIZON drummer Matt Nicholls celebrates his 25th birthday with black balloons. Watch the band's latest video for the beautiful ballad "Blessed With A Curse", released mere minutes ago, here:

Euro season

Spring is here and with it a fever spreads across Europe - hitting Sweden and Germany particularly bad. Some cheer whilst most sigh as the well-known circus of political voting, fake postcards and terrible musical acts we know as The Eurovision Song Contest starts all over again.

The competition doesn't take place until the 14th of May but fans are counting the days already. Today the one country that, apart from Italy and Austria (who declined participation for a few years, blaming the corrupt (!) and unfair voting system), year after year rolls its eyes in utter disgust at the event released the official video for their entry.

The UK, placing last year after year after competing with forced entries taking the piss out of the whole affair are in for a 180. Because this year, things are about change. Watch and learn, Sweden.

Oh and for those (many) of you, feeling the sick rise in your throats at the very thought of Eurovision, here's a little something something released today for you to enjoy:

The Haunted – Unseen

Chicks & Cream - VIVE LA FEMME!

IT'S INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY AND PANCAKE DAY.

In Sweden we in honour of the long abandoned lent period today celebrate bakery items filled with cream and marzipan called semlor as well as women (cream and marzipan optional), making it one of the best days of the year only potentially beaten by Christmas for its great amount of food and cheesy music.

It is time to appreciate those fabulous women around us! And if you, like me, consider yourself of this gender then take a look at this mini Bond film. Whilst you consider those facts, do make sure to treat yourself to another pancake, or semla. It's international pancakes and women's day and just like those God awful ads keep telling you; you're worth it.

Here's a few of my favourite ladies, all worthy of a pancake or ten.
