Around the world in four cds
After going a month or more without ordering any new music, I broke down and went a little wild this month. Consequently I've had a lot of new stuff to listen to -- including another cd by Within Temptation (The Silent Force), another 1 1/2 cds from Leaves' Eyes (Lovelorn, their first cd, and Legend Land, a brand new EP), another cd from Nightwish (Wishmaster), and a few other odds and ends, including the greatest hits of Chicago and Sand In The Vaseline, which is the 2-disc best of the Talking Heads.
My quest for odd music reached a sort of apex today. I had ordered a cd by the band Rudra a while back -- a Hindu Folk/Death Metal band from Indonesia, whose label is DemonZend Records in Malaysia (that's who I ordered from). I recieved one of those mail notices a couple of weeks ago about a package that needed a signature, but then another package arrived the next day and I thought that was it. But then I got my second and final notice. Hmmm, who could be sending me a package requiring a signature? I only had to ponder this a moment to realize it must be my Rudra cd. I'd been wondering when it would finally arrive. So I dropped by the post office today and picked it up, and listened to it at work.
( Hindu Death Metal, Yeah! )
