I have just released a new album Darkness on Theme under my Programed Emotion project.

It is primarily an experminental ambient electronica album, although numerous styles are explored throughout.

All tracks are available for free download from this site, or the whole record can be downloaded in 320kb/s mp3 quality from Mediafire (I hate rapidshit lol) at:

Morbid Angel - Visions from the Darkside from Altars of Madness

Those who don't frequent death metal don't realise the intense variety of style, composition and sound that exists within the genre. Great things have been done with death; it has been taken in many directions, and many more opportunities for development still exist. However, as far as the classic dm sound goes, no-one really ever beat Altars of Madness, not even Morbid Angel themselves (although their following albums were also brilliant and brought some new elements into the mix). It…

Songs of the Day - 20th of April 2009:

Metallica - The End of the Line, Metallica - All Nightmare Long and Metallica - My Apocalypse from Death Magnetic

So I finally bought this album and have listened to it properly for the first time. To be honest, I'm quite impressed - its better than I expected and I had expected something at least decent. It's an enjoyable album really, even if the theme running through it is a little bleak, and there's a little too much clipping (I'm not going to argue about who did it, why and…

Well I got terribly lazy for a couple of days. No I didn't leave my computer, I just didn't leave iTunes either :p XD.

Anyway here goes:

Songs of the Day - 16th of April 2009:

My Bloody Valentine - To Here Knows When and My Bloody Valentine - I Only Said from Loveless

Loveless is the most sonically wonderous album I have ever heard. It is probably the only album I have heard that has succeeded in completely destroying the inherent nature of a guitar - the soundscapes on the album obliterate all the physical qualities of playing a…

Song of the Day - 15th of April 2009:

The Cure - A Strange Day from Pornography

Pornography is certainly the darkest offering from the cure - it may not be as maudlinly pensive as seventeen seconds, but it makes up for it with burgeoning anger, depression and self-loathing. Just trumping The Downward Spiral, possibly only Joy Division's 'Closer' is more depressing. The track itself follows a drowning suicide (well that's my interpretation) and with terrifyingly good lyrics describes the total sorrow stemming from the absolute beauty and peace of the coastal setting. The main guitar riff itself washes over…

Well, because I'm an album fiend, I can't always be limited to one song a day, so there may on occasion be a couple from the same album :p

Songs of the Day - 14th of April 2009:

Isis - Backlit and Isis - Altered Course from Panopticon

Isis are a fantastic band, but I hadn't been able to fully appreciate their works until I listened to them while lying in bed. There's an emotional and atmospheric complexity to the music which is somewhat lost when absent silence and darkness. While the music is not highly technical, or even sonically…

Ok, so I thought I should write more journals on last.fm - so I have a new good idea - song of the day. What I'll do is every day (as often as I can manage) I'll write about one song that I've really been into. It could be something new, something I've known for a long while, something famous, or something obscure. I'll do two songs here, one for yesterday and one for today, because I had this idea last night before going to bed.

Song of the Day - 12 April 2009

Mindless Self Indulgence - Shut Me…

So I've been listening to a lot of metal recently, and here's my top 75. Yes there's nu-metal and alternative metal and hard rock mixed in there, but all tr00(ll)s will have to deal.
The top 20 is fairly set, unless I discover something amazing out there somewhere, or a favourite artists releases a new and better album. The rest will probably change around a lot.

1. Strapping Young Lad - Alien
2. Metallica - Master of Puppets
3. Strapping Young Lad - City (2)
4. Metallica - Ride the Lightning (2)
5. Metallica - ...And Justice for All (3)…

w(hy)tf did I even write that? :S
