🎧 The Art of Partying – Municipal Waste
“Municipal Waste is gonna FUCK YOU UP! Municipal Waste is gonna FUCK YOU UP!”
Those guys are always delivering a good mood. You wanna crack one open and then party along. Plus, their bass player – Land Phil – also has a mean sound.
🎧 Muse Bass Tab Collection – Muse
I was looking for bass inspiration – both for playing and sound – and decided to check out Muse’s Chris Wolstenhome in more detail. And I ended up listening to that playlist quite a bit recently.

In and Out of Style
🎬 Cube

I thought this had potential. But it was a little boring I’m afraid.Predictable, average acting and the constant wide-angle shots wereannoying. I’m probably too critical, I’m sorry.

🔗 Metal Heardle
A household favourite at the moment and part of our morning routine.
Guess the metal song from the intro in as few tries as possible.

Unblocking Your Writing Blocks, Part 3: I Can’t Write
Last minute – on Sunday – I bought a ticket for the TOOL concert last Tuesday at Lanxess Arena in Köln. A great decision! What a fantastic (live) band!
Loved how they partly looked at each other to coordinate (or recoordinate) some parts, and how everyone operated their own pedal board and effects. And, of course, how they played their instruments. And I was pretty close at the side of the stage to see a lot of what was going on.
Easily one of the best gigs I’ve been to, and absolutely worth the money!
🎥 Foo Fighters - White Limo guitar cover
Played this song recently with friends for another friend’s birthday jam. And I wanted to record this real quick. This song is really fun to play. But not easy, mainly due to all the string-skipping, muting and timing. And you can unfortunatly see this in this take.
Recently the magical Moises app was recommended to me, and that’s what I used to play the backing track. The app removed the guitar tracks for me, so that I can play over the rest of the band. Crazily good!
🔗 Jack White - Zane Lowe & Apple Music 'Fear Of The Dawn’ Interview
Always inspiring to listen to Jack White. And I learned there’s a Third Man Records Store in London now. For sure going to visit that one next time I’m there!
Apple Music’s Zane Lowe joins Jack in Detroit to discuss his new album 'Fear Of The Dawn,' Third Man Records, and more. Add 'Fear Of The Dawn' to your librar...

Unblocking Your Writing Blocks, Part 2: I’m Not an Expert nor a “Thought Leader”
🎬 The Witch

This review may contain spoilers. Tap or click to view.
It feels just right that Thomasin survives her naive religious family. I'm sorry for her siblings, but the parents just deserved to die. For god's sake, they had glass windows back home in England. "Glass windows"!!1! Who in his right mind leaves behind *that* and puts themselves in a dire situation like this!??
🔗 I Am That Thirst Analysis
A great analysis of my favourite song from the latest Meshuggah album. Love how he uses his fingers to illustrate it all!
I rarely dissect Meshuggah songs like this. But it’s good to sometimes have other people doing that for you.
🎧 FEAR OF THE DAWN – Jack White
Always checking out Jack’s new outputs. Almost always enjoying his guitar playing, sounds and songs. My favourite Song so far is the closing track “Shedding My Velvet”. A drum beat like this always gets me; and the guitar parts are fantastic, too. Have I written enough “always”-es, yet?
