New records
New Gorillaz was finally out, nabbed the two-disc version. Haven’t yet checked the dvd, but the record itself is pretty much what I expected an eclectic mix of catchy songs (though nothing as hooky as Clint Eastwood on the debut album) and weird beats.
As was the last album of Sentenced. Last in the sense that they’e decided to quit while on top of their game. Based on a single trip through the record, it’s good indeed, and a nice capstone for a decade-spanning career. The very last song on the record, End of the Road, even includes a semi-pompous childern’s choir to underline the fact that this is it. Will make an effort to catch them live before they bow out - the two previous gigs (Ruisrock ‘99 and Tavastia ‘01 [I think]) were worthy indeed.
Missed Jonna Tervomaa at the Maailma Kylässä-occasion due to a scheduling conflict. Don’t think her set was that different from the gig a month ago.
