Playlist - May/June 2009 - Steen
I have spent the past couple of weeks on getting my new house in shape so it's ready to move into at the end of this week. 60 liters of paint has been used to paint more than 200 square meters of walls and ceilings... To survive so much painting, music is indispensable.

The above songs will fit on a 2gb memory stick in 128kbit mp3 format and are highly recommended for extended painting sessions.
 
 
I also listened to a few albums....
 
Cage - Science of Annihilation
This one is still in heavy rotation. Die Glocke has overtaken Operation Overlord as my favorite song. What a complete massive power this song has.
 
Dark Moor - Autumnal
I lost track of Dark Moor after vocalist Elisa Martin left the band. Apparently a big mistake since this new album is excellent. Power Metal with atmosphere and great melodies. Fans of Nightwish, both old and new should check this band out.
 
Hansel - Mission to Rock
Hansel rock! Mission complete.
Ok, so the band delivers some promising songs on this 4-track EP. Nothing mindblowing but there's potential.
 
Green Day - 21st Century Breakdown
Overall a good album. Melodic Rock with alot of Beatles influence. Unfortunately the concept doesn't quite fit with the bright and happy music and it lessens the overall impression.
Know Your Enemy quickly gets repetitive and The Static Age doesn't hold the attention for long but songs like Viva La Gloria, Murder City and 21 Guns are instant earhangers.
There are a few songs which brought back memories of some oldies. "Last of American Girls" has a strong Beach Boys "Fun Fun Fun" vibe, "Viva La Gloria (Little Girl)" has a nod to  "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" (The Beatles) and "Horse shoes and Hand grenades" seems inspired by Back in the USSR (also The Beatles).
 
Dream Theater - Black Clouds and Silver Linings
First impression is grand. Wither instantly made a big impression and I'm looking forward to getting to know the rest of the songs better.
 
Pathosray - Sunless Skies
Symphony X may be a big inspiration but these guys manage to stand out and deliver a very good album. Something to check out for progressive metal fans.
 
UFO - The Visitor
The vibe was the first thing that struck me. Saving Me, Can't Buy a Thrill, Stop Breaking Down and On the Waterfront made an instant impression. Great music.
 
Stratovarius - Dreamspace
My first Stratovarius album and still among my favorites. Look out for a full review as soon as I've settled in.

Well after that lot I reckon thats the neighbours well and truly warned about what to expect from you :)

Strangley enough I was listening to Gods of War last night (while cooking my dinner, which it worked suprisingly well with) and ended up having a good laugh and not only "Faster than the fastest horse alive" but also "To Odin he's a brother, a brother who is SLY!"
