    miniskirt takeoff commandos

    What else do you expect "freeters" (dudes who flit from part-time job to part time job) to do in Japan? It's pretty cool though. The colder it gets here in Japan, the more women you'll see wearing miniskirts!

    W Szczebrzeszynie chrzszcz brzmi w trzcinie

    That`s actually the most famous Polish tongue-twister, so it`s not a fair representation of the Polish language! Even my father has problems with that one!

    Other bands that use gregorian chants.

    The Dutch band ORPHANAGE actually labelled themselves as Gregorian metal. Their first three albums are amazing - very groovy and original.

    Demand for original Candlelight pressing?

    Just wondering if the original pressing of the first three albums (NO LOGO) are in demand. I`m really out of the loop when it comes to Opeth. No f*cking bonus tracks. The way it was meant to be.

    Live in Japan....Teach English

    I`m writing from a Japanese highschool right now (in Osaka, although I live in Kobe). Summer vacations are on now so there isn`T much to do. I love it here, but it isn`t for everyone. Hordes of people last only a few months and then return home. No matter how confident you are about your...

    I wouldn`t be surprised if this material shows up on the upcoming 2CD release!

    Did you see Vincent in the crowd during Katatonia`s set at Milwaukee? He was singing along at the top of his voice!

    Yes, the person on the cover of MAYH is Peter`s ex-girlfriend. He told me himself.

    Band of the Day: Borknagar!

    The first one is their best. The riffs are ridiculously majestic and Garm has NEVER sounded better (this is my favourite Garm performance). One of my favourite Norwegian albums ever. While I like all the albums after the debut (except for Empiricism - i HATE their new singer), they never...

    LotFP 5th Anniversary Issue Preview: Review of Stratovarius: Elements Pt 2

    Awesome. I'll definitely be picking this up then! What did you think of the latest Lost Horizon? I know you liked the first one (my first and only powermetal album - I can't imagine anything being better than that album!). I think the second one is great.

    Band of the Day: Napalm Death!

    I love newer Napalm more than the original stuff, although you can't deny their influence on metal! I LOVE Enemies of the Music Business. Killer tunes and an amazing production. Insane. They're probably the best live band in the business too. I can't too see them here in Japan in January! I...

    LotFP 5th Anniversary Issue Preview: Review of Stratovarius: Elements Pt 2

    So are you actually recommending that Running Wild album? Honest question - I`ve seen this album used. Should I pick it up?

    The "Hidden" Song

    This was an instrumental that consisted of Mikael on guitar and Anders on piano. I remember Mikael telling me that the piano was out of tune, which gave the piece a very eerie, mysterious vibe. I don`t think that the piece was recorded properly (i.e. it sounded completely different), so it...
