What's your favourite colour, folks? Mine's purple.

The movie finally came out in Germany, just got back from the premiere. I have quite a few gripes as far as editing and filmmaking in general go, but overall it was a good time. I had fun, and that's the most important thing. Though, I can't let go of that one: When they were talking about...

So far I've completed 1-10, 12, 15, 16, Tactics (including sequels like X-2, Revenant Wings or The After Years), the entire Compilation of FFVII, VII Remake, Rebirth and of course FFXIV. I own the XIII trilogy, but I'm honestly not in any rush to try them out. I don't even mind the setting...

Damn. Imo even the single best minute of music on Killers is still worse than the single weakest minute of music on AMOLAD. The style of metal heard on Killers doesn't do anything for me for the most part, while AMOLAD ticks all the boxes.

In decreasing order of importance to me: Any song that has never been played live before (Only The Good Die Young?) Infinite Dreams Any song from NPFTD or FOTD that's not Fear Of The Dark Losfer Words Any other SSOASS or SIT song The rest

The only good part is the moody intro with the little bass solo. Once it goes all happy-go-lucky the song takes a serious nosedive.

Drifter starts out rather promising with a pretty cool intro riff. And then comes the rest of the song ruining it.

The previous record had a song with a similar vibe in Our Way Through Silence. This goes further in that direction. How is this the first I learn about Henrik having left the band though? T-T I had noticed that he was missing from a recent photo shooting, but at that point it wasn't official...

The hill that I'll die on is that Aces High is simply not a song that can be sung well live. The studio version is nice, but there hasn't been a single live version, not in 84, not in 99, 2008, 2012, 2018, 2022 or 2025 that sounded good to me. The song simply doesn't work for me. I showed the...

It's such a monkey's paw situation that we got Alex after so many decades and it ended up being the tour after Nicko's stroke, when he had tremendous issues getting through a show. The song deserves to get an official live release and the Greeks also deserve to finally hear it.

Quest For Sleep

I finished a new, non-album, track! On the metalmusicians subreddit there's a songwriting challenge every two months. You get a theme or topic and then you write and record the track. I participated for the first time and it was a blast. This time it was relatively simple. You get a key/scale...

Haven't they been recording all shows at the very least in audio form since AMOLAD? And as we've seen with TBOS Live Chapter they can use the footage that they stream on the screens during a show. I thought it's a safe bet that there are more than enough recordings and pro-shots for the recent...

I want it to happen, which means it won't ever happen :( Though to be fair, The Future Past was pretty much that. 2/3 of the setlist were either live premieres or rarities that hadn't been played for ages. Some stuff, like CSIT, hadn't been played for decades!

The premiere in my cinema of choice has, at best, 10% of the tickets sold at the moment.

The Pipes Of The Beast

For whatever reason I'll have to wait until next week to see it in Germany. Have fun everyone!

The Fixer of Sorrows

He wanted it repeated for the outro.

Wasn't that "Can I play with Agnes" and done so on purpose? IIRC they had that as a running joke for a while. Maybe it was on another tour.
