My friend gave me some songs from the soundtrack to Final Fantasy VII. They're so cool. I can't stop listening to them (except, of course, when I listen to Manowar...). They have even inspired me to dust off the old Playstation and take FFVII out for another spin.
I've also been in a right royal White Zombie mood these past few days. I'm not talking Astrocreep, here. I'm talking the groovy riffs and funky rhythms of La Sexorcisto: Devil Music Vol. 1.
I have to admit, I've been enjoying the sounds of that record for many years. It's probably my all-time favourite record. I like it even more than I like any single Manowar album. It's a shame Rob Zombie went all crap in the mid-late 90s. Damn him.

What a fucking excellent band.

I got a new Running Wild album. Masquerade!
It was released in 1995 and it's excellent (of course).
I got the new Maiden album a few weeks back too. Its excellent as well! Hurrah!
Now all I need is for Manowar to get up off their arses and release their new album, instead of delaying it again and again and again. Booo!
There's been news of a new Finntroll record coming for about the past year and a half as well, but still absolutley no details. At least they got their new singer sorted out though.
That's all for now from me!

Something seems wrong listening to a Mr Men record, then following it immediately with Jailbait by Motorhead.
Oh well!

Teenage baby, you're a sweet young thing!
Still tied to mommy's apron strings!
I don't even dare to ask your age!
It's enough to know you're here back-stage!

Love that young stuff!

I've written a song. It's all about Jason, for those of you who know him. J2 for those who are picky about it.
Here it is!:

Jason's Song

Hol, You!
Ya great big poo!
You've never made a basket,
You've never worn a shoe.
You've never been to Zanzibar
Or been to Timbuctoo.
You've never had a sex change,
You've never lived with mice.
You've never been a melon,
You've never grown rice.
You don't know Andy Peters,
You've never bought a boat.
You've never shot a lion,
Or even tamed a goat.
But one thing that you have done
Is make a royal stink
That time you did a jobby
In the bathroom sink.

I'm going to start a skiffle band. Any one who wants to join probably can.

I really like Kraftwerk.
I haven't been listening to half as much Manowar as I should have been. A problem that will be seen to over the next week.
Also, Rhapsody of Fire? Piss off, please. It's plain old Rhapsody for me.

Out of boredom I decided to compile a list of my top five favourite bands, my top ten tracks by each band, and my favourite album by each band too.
