I think that's everything... My RYM is a mess right now.

Don't ask about Animal Alpha, I liked their song in NHL06 and thought of them out of the blue and I dl'd it.

Intestine Baalism is really growing on me.

Yay!! 2008 is next to its end... so, let's review it!!

Part 1 - New albums

Alice In Videoland - She's a Machine (electro)
Hmm... it was better then I expected. I think the band has become musically more mature. The problem was the low number of tracks in this album, only 8, each with 3 minutes in average. There was some rumours stating the they would produce another tracks to be released in a "new version" of the algum, or an EP, or single... well, I don't know.
Score: 8,0/10,0

Animal Alpha - You Pay For The Whole Seat But You´ll Only Need The Edge (hard rock)
At first listening, I found this album really amazing. But, after some playings, I just realized that their debut album, Pheromones is way better. This new album souds a little repetitive sometimes, and also it needs some new experiments. Anyway, the production is wonderful.
Score: 7,5/10,0

Collide - Two Headed Monster (electro)
After more than 3 years, they finally release a new album. …

It's amazing. I can't stop playing Right Where It Belongs. I'm usually not into industrial, but this song is just sooo brilliant, that I just rushed out and bought the Limited Edition of With Teeth. The CD is good, but none of the other songs can really compare to Right Where It Belongs. Every Day Is Exactly The Same is the second best song, imo.

Anyways. I also strongly dig the album The Eraser. I play the songs Harrowdown Hill and Black Swan like at least 5 times a day.

Also very high on my playlist is Animal Alpha from Norway. The song Bundy is imo the best from Pheromones and the CD is definatly worth buying. And that is my problem! I haven't found even one shop where I could buy this CD or even any of the EPs from Animal Alpha!

A band I was recommended is WinterKids. It seems they gain popularity in the veryUK quickly. Actually I think they are overhyped. They are not bad, but the song Somebody Elses Clothes is the only one I really found catchy. On the other hands I said Maxïmo Park was overhyped when they were new.
