I know this is early, but if I have to hear that Mannheim Steamroller version of Deck The Halls on the radio this holiday season more than once, I will shoot myself. (Not literally, though I will go insane.)

Animal Farm...I last read it in...fifth? grade. I definitely was not old enough to appreciate or understand it.

Maybe some day.

I think that one needs to have a full understanding (or at least, more of an understanding than any 5th-grader I've ever met) of the Russian Revolution of October 1917 and the later rise to power of Stalin to really appreciate Animal Farm.

I think Orwell's just a great writer all-around, though.

I just became the first person to scrobble this band to last.fm.

I feel cool.

Just got back from Enslaved/Alcest about an hour ago, the concert was pretty good, as was the venue.

you know that feeling when you click something that you already know you're going to hate, but you want to see just how bad it's going to be?


this one is for being a trooper of masochism if you clicked that other video

I'll check those out tomorrow... always enjoy putting myself through the crap you dig up :)

RO: It's so easy to find yourself replaying a Big Star song multiple times. I just put September Gurls on a loop, before I knew it it was nearly 10 plays...

Both are pretty awesome.

But here's something great that was just a couple of linked videos away.

Yeah, it would be good to see those hit PS3 as well. I bought a bunch of RBN stuff after browsing the store for a bit (being able to preview stuff helps a bit, or I'll just check YouTube to see the full charts if the song interests me enough) over the past week, but the 2 Emperor songs are my next target among others.
