This is Abigail Williams’ third full length album. Maybe a bit less technical than their previous efforts, but with much more emotion & atmosphere built in. The vocals in each song seem to just be another instrument. They don’t stand out, but they add to the feeling of each song. They’re a subtle addition that’s so important to the end result. The music is melodic, raw, aggressive & thoughtful.
So, with news of Bill Ward speaking out to the public yesterday about him possibly not being a part of the up coming Black Sabbath reunion tour and recording, it is suffice to say now HE WILL NOT be a part of the reunion. This spat seems to be all about money and royalty percentages. Guess we know who’s pulling the strings on this gig (hint, hint: She’s a red head and I believe she really sucks the blood of bats).

Soulcalibur V Gallery #2: In-Game Character Art & Scenery/Setting: There are some shots of the characters from scenes inside the game, as well as a few of the stages that will be available as fighting platforms. In my opinion the Soulcalibur series has by far the most beautiful and detailed characters and backgrounds, particularly for a PvP fighting game, and I have way too much fun changing the outfits and designing custom characters. #gallery-2 { margin: auto; } #gallery-2 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 25%; } #gallery-2 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-2 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /*...

The creators describe this game as tougher than anything that has gone before it – and have cut the two characters into the Earth to prove it. “Everyone knows the Soulcalibur characters are among the hardest fighters in gaming – so we’ve decided to immortalize them in granite for thousands of years” says Lee Kirton, marketing director, Namco Bandai. “These characters have only ever existed digitally, so it’s brilliant to record them permanently in a format which will remain visible until the end of time.” Master...
Why Before Watchmen? Why continue to malign a masterpiece that already has somewhat been through the ringer? (Watchmen the movie anyone?) Unless you were living under a rock, that was under another rock, next to ….well you know what I mean, DC officially announced yesterday that they would be releasing a series of books called Before Watchmen.
