A promo copy (with voice-overs) of the new Nightwish album - Dark Passion Play has been leaked on the Innernet. This is the first album with their new lead singer - Anette Olzon - after their previous (famous) lead singer Tarja Turunen was kicked out.
While this song off Bruce Dickinson's Chemical Wedding is pretty catchy etc. etc., it's the solo by Roy Z that has me constantly coming back for another listen.
Good shit.
The unfortunate few of you out there who have nothing better to do than to read this blog are well aware of my disappointment with Megadeth's latest album United Abominations. You might also remember me mentioning and looking forward to the Japan Disc which was to contain a bonus track - a cover of Led Zeppelin's Out on the tiles. Well, as far as I can tell, it hasn't been leaked anywhere just yet.
The song of the day is Megadeth's Amerikhastan, from their new album United Abominations which has been leaked on the Internet, weeks prior to official release. The album is on the whole rather disappointing, but there are a few highlights and Amerikhastan is one of them.
Somebody very dear to me informed me today that I have no life whatsoever. I am going to prove her right by making one rather pointless post on a daily basis (or I suppose whenever possible), informing the hoi polloi that comprise the audience of this blog of the song that has captured the attention of my picky ears. My listening habits are such that I frequently skip tracks until I find one that suits my mood and repeat it over and over again.
I've just started listening to Therion's new album Gothic Kabbalah. No opinions on the album as such yet (shit like this tends to grow on you, and I've learned my lesson about prejudging albums based on the first listen :P), but I do have an opinion on the first two tracks.
