No, your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you. I am going to die. Now I know a few of you are going to make clucking noises and ask, “doesn’t everyone die?” That’s not what I’m talking about, Captain Obvious. Here’s the story: My mother apparently went to a temple somewhere …

Okay, so recycleb.in has just been (re)launched for the third time. I tried installing Joomla and the Fireboard component, but the ugly URLs turned out to be a real turn-off, plus I just didn’t see the need for a CMS.

So, after a couple of days of trial and error, I’ve …

One day, while I was pottering about on the Nuclear Blast website, I saw banner ads that claimed that Anders Friden from In Flames was going ape shit over the new album from Sonic Syndicate, titled Only Inhuman (released May 2007).

Okay, this isn’t a real post (then again, none of my posts are real posts), but I need your help. Yes, that’s right, YOUR help. After quite a bit of Googling, I managed to find the ad I wanted. Now, I need to find the song used on this ad. It’s the Korea Sparkling TV advertisement. No, wait, it’s the Korea Sparkuhling TV advertisement. Bwahahahah!

Anyway, here it is:

Okay, so Dimmu Borgir’s new album, In Sorte Diaboli, came out in April this year. The first time I heard the title, I thought it was a Latin rip-off of Metallica’s ‘Some Kind of Monster’. Apparently, my Latin isn’t as good as I thought it to be, because the title really means ‘In Direct Contact With Satan’.

That’s the album cover. Pretty neat, huh? It is common knowledge that satanists just adore goat-headed boobmonsters that like to pretend they have guns in their hands. Nice crotch-snakes, however. Bang! Bang! Off to hell with you, foolish mortal. Also, what’s with all the faceless people? Too much satanic vanishing cream?

Moving on, here’s the tracklist, just in case you were wondering:

  1. “The Serpentine Offering” – 5:09
  2. “The Chosen Legacy” – 4:17
  3. “The Conspiracy Unfolds” – 5:24
  4. “The Ancestral Fever” (European Bonus Track) – 5:51
  5. “The Sacrilegious Scorn” – 3:58
  6. “The Fallen Arises” – 2:59
  7. “The Heretic Hammer” (North American Bonus Track) – 4:37
  8. “The Sinister Awakening” – 5:09
  9. “The Fundamental Alienation” – 5:17
  10. “The Invaluable Darkness” – 4:44
  11. “The Foreshadowing Furnace” – 5:49

“Black Metal” (Venom cover) (Japanese Bonus Track)
