A couple of words

I haven’t gotten this blog rolling as I intended, mostly due to the fact that I’ve been busy with the things in everyday life, and ”the man” demanding his due. But I’ll soon be able to shift some of my focus here. Be prepared for more stuff to be posted soon; things both small and big.

Untill then, send your thoughts to the people in Japan, and to those countries in the Middle East and North Africa, that go through more than we in the privilieged part of the world can imagine.
I know I do.

And the latest from Norway...

This Saturday it was time for the annual Spelleman Awards in Norway (the Norwegian equivalent to the Grammy Awards), and I'm happy to extend my congratulations to Kvelertak (who won "Best Rock" and "Best Newcomer") and Enslaved, who won the "Best Metal" award for their latest album "Axioma Ethica Odini". Both well deserved!

In other news, I stumbeled over this new clip from the upcoming album "War of Roses" by the Norwegian masterminds Ulver. Curveballs is the order of the day when it comes to this former Black Metal band, and February MMX is no exception. Surprisingly good, and if this song is anything to go by, the album will land high in my lists at the end of this year.
But knowing Ulver, you never know what you'll get in the end...
