München, mon amour

So, this is it. I'm once again letting down my ideals; now creating this electronic den for venting opinions and contemplations, disturbing thoughts and nostalgic anecdotes, random drivel and silly nonsense coming to mind while crossing the river Styx, caressing the six-string, awaiting the S-bahn or just taking a shit. I. e. what some may refer to as a "blog". Happy reading!


First; Zeitgeist – The Movie.

I know I’ve been nagging and nagging about this one but it’s probably the most touching thing I’ve gotten exposed to since your sister stole my chastity. I personally believe that this one should be mandatory viewing in high school and object for discussion in all public-service media. Although I’ve been hearing and reading about this stuff for a while now this colossal two-hour-piece really flung me headfirst into the wall.

Facts or fraud? Well, I guess the first part should nowadays be quite obvious for everyone, but the latter ones... Frankly, I don’t know! But they do make some sense.

However, the primal thing about this movie is, to me, not whether all is correct or not, but that it sure will plant a healthy dose of nasty thoughts in people's heads and oblige them to think for themselves for a while instead of like empty receptables letting biased media pouring the gospel of corporate "truth" into them. And we all could need that these days, couldn’t we!?

Definitely a must-see for everyone!!!!


Second; Munich coming up!

Believe it or not, I’ll be nightriding with the kind dames and sirs at Deutsche Bahn on New Year’s Eve (tomorrow, that is), reaching beautiful Bavaria at nine the following morning. There are probably more exciting ways to begin 2008 but since work starts already on the 2nd it was this solution or no solution.

I’ll try to keep you posted on what Germany smells like!


Also;

Some fine jet-black art that’s been spinning lately:

Gutworm ”Disfigured Narcissus” (Unholy, Intronaut-ish, mindblowing)
Hollow Corp. “Cloister of Radiance” (Frenchmen who prefer barbed wire to baguettes)
Long Distance Calling “Satellite Bay” (Sheer jävla beauty)
The Ocean "Precambrian" (Massive in its splendour)
Dillinger Escape Plan “Ire Works” (No comment needed)
Raging Speedhorn “Before the Sea Was Built” (Angry Corby-sons, now epic!)


Until next time,
New Year's-salutations and love!
