great stuff. Already got one schnauss album and it rocks ;) 

for those that are into it, check out these new releases (if you can find them!)

[FINRGHARD003] 2 great tunes from dj rx, fisheye being my personal favourite as its much darker =)

[EPLATE006] Electroplates is a spinoff from the label "electronic" that do some great stuff, this one is limited to 150 presses but its great, "Horatsu" is a swirling monster of a track and "Eidetiker" is more UK bouncy sound but still ok.

[EPLATE004] The finland inspired vinyl, hitting off with Alek Szahala's "Unicorn grove", and fantastical swirling ride that he does so well, the on the flip you've got "Holocaust of death" and "imitation of life" which are both fantastic UK efforts at the finish freeform sound, highly recommended!

[ETRIC022] Eternal Damnation EP. Woot for Panacea!! A fantastic Panacea remix of Shanty's "Times Trouble" featuring a full on mix of hardcore and dnb in that crazy way that panacea is known for. On the flip is a evil but tasty one called "Reign of terror" by Oli G and Shanty. 

but does anyone who has seen Cube 2: Hypercube, know what the song is that plays for both the titles, and end credits? i love it so much... i recorded it from the movie, but i'd much rather have a proper version of it with good quality :P 

"Nostalgia" and their album Arcana Publicata Vilescunt

ACCCCCCIIIIIIIIIIIIIID 

(in before voodoochopsticks) 

Fascinated to see what will happen at next years eurovision, this year was the first time I watched with real keen interest, next year will be exciting too :D

HARD ROCK HALLELUJAH! 

I saw yesterday night the results of Eurovision 2006 contest... and what a surprise to see Finland's Black Metal band won the price... Is it the rebirth of Death Metal ? I hope personally !!

ROFLMAO !! 

If you like hard dance, you should own this album already :)

What a brilliant collection this is, ranging from the upfront UK sound to the more bizarre finnish freeform stuff currently doing the rounds, this album is definitely on the crest of current hard dance infuluences. The self titled track takes the album by storm I think with a brilliantly vibrant and dark melody that captivates me to no end, all the other tracks seem to meld into this showpiece that proves that lab4 are still the kings of hard dance music.

Recommended.

ps - I am very drunk 

Which band won?

Finland has been putting out some great Black Metal as of late, most notably Horna. 

The band is named LORDI, and they performed a song titled "Hard Rock Hallejuah" 

the Finnish band that won eurovison?

Now there is a lot of good music coming out of Finland, but that isn't one of them :D 

Just checked out Lordi, pretty amusing. Though when it comes to slightly goofy metal, i still prefer Finntroll.

Good stuff coming out of Finland:

Horna
Behexen
Azaghal
Exordium 

Guess this fits in here:

Trailer for Eve Online, music by Black Sun Empire, pretty fucking class if you ask me.

What is it:
Ethereal, Ambient, Synth-Orchstral, New-Age, Typical Game OST, Evil, Positive. 

Oh yes ! The video is very good... Nice indeed.. And the techno soundtrack is fucking good ! 

Had originally planned to see Ministry, but since i suffer from narcolepsy, needed someone to go with, and make sure i'd stay awake on the 90 minute drive home. Didn't find anyone, so bought albums instead.

Katatonia - Viva Emptiness
Ministry - The Land of Rape and Honey
Ministry - Psalm 69
Satyricon - Now, Diabolical
Shoshtakovich - Best of...
Tidfall - Nucleus 

Just picked these up on Sunday, some very enjoyable laid back & melodic trance with some great vocal work too;

Above & Beyond - Tri-State

A great single cd album, the classic above and beyond light pad work and wide synths mixed with some fantastic vocal work. The album shifts pace quite a bit, a few tracks with a steady beat and then a more ambient laid back track or a vocal soundscape will come in. Very relaxing and enjoyable to listen to.

Gabriel & Dresden

The self titled album from G&D features some excellent vocals and interresting, fresh melodies mixed with that unmistakable G&D "bouncy" beat and rythem. Some of the tracks sound very unique with some interresting synth work that you don't really hear anywhere else. Its a lot less "trancy" than the Above & Beyond album, with the vocals doing the work instead of big wide synths or pads.

Both are recommended if you like Trance with a slightly laid back & relaxing atmosphere. 

I have always been into bands that have a unique, individual sound, these are the ones I like most:

Chrome/Helios Creed: unbelievable droning guitar sound and very strange lyrics dealing with all kinds of strange psycho stuff... (meaningful pause)

Big Black/Shellac/Steve Albini: at first if you hear this you think your speakers are broken or something, it�s that weird, but after some listening it sure grows, Albini was at some time regarded the most prolific "independent" producer, having recorded countless bands, i.e. the final Nirvana lp "In Utero"

God (pathological records label): a collaborational project including england�s finest "alternative" forces at that time, members from SLAB, Godflesh, etc.

Tar: Chicago based group with an unbelievable guitar flow, dirty and beautyful at the same time, house producer was mostly Steve Albini...

Cows: again a very unique sound, "fun punk" seems quite appropriate though not really fitting, some of their stuff seemed to me like a very slow but forceful lava stream :0

Hawkwind: THE psychedelic 70�s band IMO, two guitars complementing each other perfectly, kills Pink Floyd anyday (j/k)

Skullflower: the end of all guitar sounds/drones, minimalistic and forceful, geniuses at work IMO

Swans: it�s more the bass than the guitar, but M. Gira sure knows how to tear shit up no less. 

Thanks for that list. I'm gonna try to have a listen to some of those and maybe snag a few when I have somemore $$. 

The track is "arrakis" from this album : http://www.juno.co.uk/products/138962-02.htm&highlight=black%20sun%20empire
