Current music:Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Rockets fall on Rocket Falls

Random stuff
Oh hell, forgot to mention. My trip to london was flippin' great! The Mindless Self Indulgence show was excellent! (even though I had hardly slept for two days and felt ill)

I spent more money on those five days London than I did for the entire month I lived there after graduating from High School. And I had an extremely good time! (well spent money in my eyes)

Bought two comics that I have now finished.

Blankets Which I thought was just okay. (don't kill me) But I haven't had a christian upbringing or been in love, I guess I couldn't relate. But I really liked all the childhood and winter stuff though. Which I guess I could relate too. It was excellently written and drawn, so all in all good.

And the other comic was Street Angel which I finished earlier today. One word.

Awesome.

I hope they make more!

And then I turned a friend towards Fell and Bear (which he thought was a Jhonen Vasquez comic and now refuses to admit it's not even though it says Jamie Smart on the cover), and I allmost got him to buy Gutsville but they only had issue two.

I urge everyone to read Gutsville. It's incredible!

Todays music suggestions are:

HUMANWINE
Luminescent Orchestrii
Asakusa Jinta

And the new albums from:

Prefuse 73
Efterklang
Múm
Nervous Cabaret

And these following movies are good:

Knocked Up
Superbad
This Is England
28 Weeks Later

And I actually liked the new Resident Evil movie! (I love post-apocalyptic and zombie movies)

In about two weeks time it's the Stockolm International Film Festival 2007 and these are the movies I will see there:

King of California
Persepolis
The Go-Getter
Waitress
Eagle vs Shark
Watching the Detectives
Rocket Science
Paranoid Park
The Nines
I'm a Cyborg, but that's OK
Juno
American Crime
Hallam Foe
Autumn Ball
Into the Wild
REC
Room 205
Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer
The Diving Bell and the Butterfly
No Country for Old Men
The Great World of Sound

That is all.


Oh oh oh! And is anyone else really missing Godspeed You! Black Emperor?

I am. ;(

About Godspeed: I talked to one of them (he works at a music store in Montreal) and says they're pretty much split up and have no projects together. They might come back if they feel like it, but they're in separate bands now, like Silver Mount Zion and Fly Pan Am.
But, yeah, I miss them.

Damn, that's too bad.. cool though that you've talked to someone in the band. Yeah it feels like there's millions of bands connected to gybe nowadays.

Glad you liked MSI!

I thought KNOCKED UP was just ok. I guess I was too hyped up for it.

I've been waiting for NO COUNTRY for ages. And I'm still pissed that I missed EAGLE VS SHARK. But you need to add LAST WINTER to that list.

Oh, I've heard of Last Winter, but it didn't seem very interesting at all, so it's good, hmm... I'll see if I can look it up.

I'm really looking forward to eagle vs shark :D I just noticed it's the guy from Flight of the Conchords in it too and I just recently finished watching that masterpiece!
