Talking of "Avantgarde" as a genre sort of negates its purpose :)

plus, if it is as I suspect, then the video you see on MTV is "The Widow", which happens to be the only track on Frances the Mute that I occasionally skip, because it's just not nearly as good as any of the other songs. So, if you don't like "The Widow", give the other songs a chance

well, most people here avoid MTV :)

Yes, Mars Volta really owns! I actually think their second is even better than their first :) I have a feeling Opeth likes them (or at least someone in their sound crew does), because when I saw them live in this old theater in Stockholm (one of the practice gigs before the dvd recording in...

btw, all universities in Sweden are public. They're free, and you even get payed to study (~300$/month) plus the option to loan an added 600$/month if you want to (to pay back after you're done).. sure, you have to pay for books, but it's still such a bargain to study. :) The downside, of...

I'm finishing my 1st year at med school now.. I started with 2 years of physics/math/biology (going for a masters degree in bioinformatics), but I was so genuinly bored with the math and physics, and realised that the only part I liked was the biology.

The final plate on Themes.. I just love all those guest-people.. especially Samoth, who does an absolutely stunning job.. "oh, citizen of london!" etc :D Nowhere/Catastrohe owns me as well.. and the first track on Lyckantropen.. and the first on Metamorphosis

and more mellotron :)

it's prog rock, I suppose.. a darker kind of PT

"The murder in the cave"

I'd say Still Life or Blackwater Park.. MAYH is equally good IMO, but I think it's a bit harder to get into.. at least it was for me

Yeah, I read in an interview in a swedish mag about a year ago that he uses Full Shreds.. noone believed me, lol :)
