Apocalyptica: Worlds Collide - PopMatters Review

I’ve been finishing a lot of homework lately. This Apocalyptica album had been lying around for months. If I had written the review immediately after receipt it would have been a lot different.

I like to think that the wrapper was torn not because of the long trip from Leicestershire to the Netherlands but because its contents were bursting to get out. 148 pages of features on [...]

Blogging with WordPress

So today I returned to WordPress for my own site. How fickle am I? Well I figured that Drupal was not really a blogging tool and that I should use horses for courses. I still (at the moment) use Drupal for thecontrast.net. This is my first post. I’m still using Ecto to post and I [...]

Asia: Phoenix - PopMatters Review

So this review was a long time coming. I have been so busy of late I let a lot of these PopMatters reviews pile up. I kind of wish that I hadn’t bothered with this one. It was pretty painful to write and even more so to listen to. What can I say, ASIA just [...]
