New musical impulse: Deathstars
I confess to have been hungering for something new of late, musicwise. Usually I pretty much stick with what I already have found to like and love (such as my continuing obsession with Dimmu Borgir and Old Man’s Child) but every now and then I crave new influences and inspiration. I found my answer in the Deathstars.
To be honest I thought the stage was set. Safari to Windows platform, Firefox 3.0 released, IE 8 to come. A whole ‘new’ cycle of browser wars to see who comes on top. Little did I suspect a ‘late comer’ to the next round in browser slug wars.
If you have been following my blog for some time you remember I have been to Blue Man Group some time ago and was left incredibly excited about the act. Last week I came across a DVD of them in the supermarket and I could not resist, so I bought it.
Two weeks ago I got an early Christmas present: the new 3rd generation ipod nano 8gb and I must admit I am happy as a clam with it. I wear it just about everywhere. Music, podcasts, video casts… I devour audio and video content like nothing before.
