LIGHT THERAPY

February is a dark and far too cold month.

Spring can't come soon enough if you ask the Stockholmers sweating under their plastic clouds of down as they squeeze up against each other in the underground morning traffic before pulling their trendy hats with controversial fur balls tightly over their ears once hit by the freezing air outside. The fact that the sun is setting later every day makes little difference when the temperatures stubbornly stay far below ten minus degrees, hitting twenty at night.

It is in times like these that we all need a bit of light in our lives. Nordic Flames today gives you three music videos to help you keep at least your ears warm - much like Galadriel to Frodo once upon a time: May it be a light for you in dark places, when all other lights go out. (Yeah, I went there.)

First up, Kanye has a message we all can agree on.


From a video that might as well have been made backdrop for the following rock gods, to Mastodon and their "Oblivion" (Their live DVD being another bright thing to look forward to. Realease date 15th of March):


And finally, Bring Me The Horizon featuring, that's right, Lights.

Rock n Roll is dead, Nordic Flames is not.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are back.

A year on Mastodon have released the album of 2009, Obama has managed to get his healthcare bill passed by the American congress and the Black Spiders are out on tour with Airbourne again. This time around they even have their own headline gig booked in at The University of Sheffield on April 24th. Do not miss that.

In other news we are counting down towards the album release of Cancer Bats' "Bears, Mayors, Scraps and Bones" (April 13th), gigs with Russian Circles and Rolo Tomassi and tonight's The Rock Show with Daniel P. Carter. Midnight til 2, tune in.

Oh and Phil Demmel from epic rock God band Machine Head emailed me yesterday, said that this was an awesome read. Check it out.

Finally, a week on, this still rocks my world:



Mhm, Honey B.
