Portishead - Humming Off Roseland NYC Live.

Like everyone in the post-rock scene worships those guys as far as I've seen, are they really worth all the praise? The band name really turns me off lol. Red Sparowes - At the Soundless Dawn (album) They're the definitive post-rock band. Also, thumbs up for Red Sparowes. Sunny Day Real Estate's album Diary.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Moya

Warning - Faces

Solefald - The Liberation of Destiny

I dunno, the general consensus of other places I hang about is to get a Gigabyte or an MSI rather than an ASUS. Just avoid nForce, take it from my experience.

DarkDude, you could get hold of an older iPod and install Rockbox on it if you feel like it. I'm pretty sure the Rockbox firmware offers FLAC support; otherwise I don't know any large capacity players that support FLAC off the top of my head. Like Lateralus, I'm more into albums. Sometimes I'll just set foobar2000 to read all my music and put it on random if I'm in the mood for that.

Anaemically pale. I'm that really sickly-looking tone of white.

I would've waited and gotten a PC with a 5xxx series card. Otherwise it's quite a fine build, just be aware that ASUS motherboards aren't exactly known for their stability so don't be surprised if it starts going wrong. Driver compatibility and everything should be absolutely fine for youe hardware. As for what programs I use, I'll give you a short list:

One of my animefriends is nagging me to watch this. Maybe I should after all...

Bound to trick a few people. I've always wondered what computing would be like if people who coded malware used their talents constructively instead of destructively.

The requirements are pretty much the same. If you can run Vista, you can run 7.

idk, I've had some good brauts at Kebab stands in Germany. But Germany is the kebab capital of the world. English kebabs... are not so hot.

^ is precisely why I avoid Doner kebabs like the plague. Food poisoning once in a lifetime is enough. I don't trust those shady kebab joints.

Scenario: suffering from intense pressure similar to what I went through in 2007. Solution: this time around, I would know how to deal with it. I would make it through without cracking a second time.

Nick Drake - Parasite I will forever mention Nick Drake whenever people talk about good guitarists.

I used the RC pretty much since its release until now, but I just couldn't get used to it at all. I had issues with HD H.264 playback (taking far more CPU power than it should), Windows Update (computer would hang on booting into Windows after updating), sound (too quiet, pops and cracks) and Aero switching itself off if I left my computer idle. Recently I just decided to format and install XP again; life has been better. I blame my nForce motherboard.

Finshed both seasons of Hayate now, awesome show. On another note, I don't think normal anime exists.

KOTOKO - daily-daily Dream

Guh. I have no idea what's up with me, but recently I've been suffering nasty headaches, tiredness, a loss of appetite and what appears to be some minor stuffiness in my left ear. Whatever the cause, it's making me feel completely rotten and I'm dozing off all the time.

When I write in odd meters, it happens naturally. It's not: "Let's sit down and write something in 11". I can say I'm a fan of 9/8 and 10/8 when it comes to odd meters. Obviously it doesn't appeal to everybody, but I love writing a groove over an odd meter. Something you can still nod your head to, but doesn't become so complex that it just sounds like a mad rush of notes and rhythms. It's not writing in that meter just for the sake of being odd or different. I can understand that. It's people who write in something like 27/16 to try to prove that their band can be "technical" that get to me. As long as you have a musical reason for writing it then it's all good. I'm also quite the fan of 9/8 and it's the only real irregular time sig that I use.

Congratulations!

Can't let this one stay open. Any concerns, PM me.

のあのわ - ゆめの在りか This will make you happy for weeks: Best thing I've heard in ages. The vocalist really gives it her all.
