Regularly putting on this enjoyable and chaotic little album. Interesting arrangements and great playing has me coming back. Reminds me of old Mastodon and Protest the Hero. That opener is a banger!

🎬 Rabbit School: Guardians of the Golden Egg
First time in the cinema with Zoe. We had a good time. But at 4yo Ithought this was probably a bit much for her – although she liked it andpayed attention the whole time. But the fights, the whole YouTube-andsocial media follower-spiel and a long non-trivial story was pretty muchall new to her. But hey, you have to start somewhere. And when she likescinema, I’m all for it. :) The movie itself was fine, although itprobably tried too hard to be hip and modern (but what do I know).
🎬 Duel
Start to finish a suspenseful and very captivating journey. There’s notmuch to complain about. Loved the camera angles and the sound. And thewhole build-up is fantastic. Ace!

🎧 Immutable – Meshuggah
It’s their new one that just came out. It’s in constant rotation. Much easier to get into for me compared to the previous “The Violent Sleep of Reason”. The tracks on this one are so evil, which I very much like.
I’m almost sad now, that they cancelled all their gigs in Germany for the upcoming tour.

🎥 Wolverine blues
My cover of this Entombed song that never gets old.
Sound is not that great to be honest, but actually not much worse than what came out of the speaker. The signal went through the Eyemaster pedal into my overdriven Katana Mini. And I feel like that little amp/speaker can’t quite handle the amount of distortion. And also sending the backing track through there, too, certainly doesn’t help. I also haven’t figured out what the best postitioning of the little microphone is in front of the amp.
Anyhow. Great song. Easy and fun to play. Tuning is Drop-A#.
🎬 Climax
If a lot of scenes and the plot in general wasn’t so shocking and thelanguage not as coarse, I would say this could almost be described asbeautiful. It’s beautifully choreographed – both in a dancing kind ofway, as well as a cinematography kind of way. But it’s a choreography ofa horror trip. And the film takes you along for it.

🎬 The Descent
Those monsters and the cave setting were actually really well done andit had some good moments. Unfortunately the plot and characters were notof the same quality leaving me indifferent to how this continues orends.
🎧 IMPERA – Ghost
Very much enjoying the new Ghost! This one had me with that opening scream in Kaisarion. Much great songwriting and a great flashback to 80s hard rock and metal. This has great songs throughout and some of them keep making me smile. Especially Spillways and Griftwood, whose beginnings are Bon Jovi’s “Runaway” and Van Halen’s “Ain’t talking ‘bout love” respectively. Guitar work is so good and satisfying. And hiring Fredrik Åkesson is a great choice, as the solos are top notch, too.
🎬 Wheels on Meals
I do enjoy some good Jackie Chan stunts. And this had quite a few goodones, if I’m being honest. But overall I had trouble staying motivatedto continue watching. The plot itself is mediocre, the movie is way toolong, and the jokes are almost annoyingly silly. I probably would’vewritten more favourable words if this had been a (max.) 90 minute affairinstead of the 110 it actually was.
🎬 QT8: The First Eight
Ok documentary. Made me want to watch even more of his movies again.
🎬 Reservoir Dogs
We were in a mood for Tarantino and decided to watch his debut. And itwas kind of nice to watch this right after The Hateful Eight, as Idiscovered that they share quite a few similarities.
Rewatching this after a lot of years, this was a great refresher. It’sstill his weakest movie, but everything else but a waste of time.Especially enjoyed Harvey Keitel’s performance. And that credit-scoreCoconut song.
🎬 The Hateful Eight
A Tarantino film is always a guarantee to entertain me. This one mightbe not have a satisfying ending as his other movies, but nevertheless,it’s great. Love Ennio Morricone’s soundtrack!
