Desktop Tower Defense
So while I’m away and in no way able or interested to post this week; here’s a scheduled entry which’ll pop up mid week to keep you happy and interested. Play some Desktop Tower Defense, a free and amazingly addictive little online game. No registration crap, no popups, just pure fun.
I hope you like it, see you when I get back.

Iron & Wine

Iron & Wine - Our endless numbered days.
Remember real music? Acoustic music? Music before every monkey started thinking that screaming into a mic and scraping a hand across a guitar makes him a musician? Before sound engineers started thinking that producing an album meant turning up the bass instead of capturing the whole sound spectrum as faithfully as possible?
Well, that kind of music is still being made, and a most excellent example of it is Iron & Wine’s Our Endless Numbered Days. Simply beautiful. Check it out here and here.

Faderhead - FH2

Faderhead - FH2
Faderhead’s second album. Pretty diverse, less aggressive than the first (which may or may not be considered a pity) and with interesting lyrics. I wouldn’t know how to classify this music, and I think that’s a good thing, just click on the picture to have a listen for yourself as the whole album is available in a low sample rate stream.

Random fact of the day

In Meatloaf’s “I would do anything for love” he sings/says “I would do anything for love” 33 times.
My 2 colleagues counted.

Diorama - A different life
New album, brilliant as always. “Kein Mord” is my fave track after the first few listens, but “Exit the grey” is also catchy.

World of WarCraft

World of WarCraft Trial Version
I guess it was inevitable… some day, for some reason, I wouldn’t be able to escape it any longer. This day has come.
Seeing as at work we always make fun of our interns for playing World of WarCraft (it’s all about levelling, there’s no story, that’s no real rpg) one of them (Mr. Teapot on the forum) decided to be a smartass and gave us 14 day trial versions as a parting gift at the end of his internship. So next week or the one after that I’ll have to install it and give it a try.
But I will not give in to the dark side.

The new ‘exclusive’ trailer takes away any remaining doubts that this movie is going to kick major butt.
Check it out.

Last.fm

Last.fm
Ok, I absolutely adore Last.fm, it appeals to the statistics whore in me. It’s also a great way to discover new music. For those unfamiliar with it, you download a program which tracks what music you listen to. This is then turned into statistics you can view on their website (all RSS powered, so you easily add it to for example your blog). Recently played, weekly charts, fave bands, you name it.
It also lets you see music you may like as well, based on what it knows you love. And you can see a list of other people with a similar music taste.
Anyway, the list goes on and on, check it out if you’re a music nut.

And, now we also have a last.fm group for X111.com members:
http://www.last.fm/group/X111.com
Join it! If we get a group of people on there it will generate a weekly chart based on what we’ve all been listening to, which in turn could be fun to add to the site.
