<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Jag måste erkänna att av olika saker jag gärna skyller på så är &#8211; just nu &#8211; den största anledningen till att inte Kulturschmultur har en ny grafik ännu att jag inte blivit nöjd med det jag gjort. Det har blivit ganska bra, men lite tråkigt. Jag hoppas att jag råkar åtgärda det imorgon. Om planeterna står rätt och gudarna vill. Med lite tur blir det <em>den 6:e konfluxen</em>.</p>
<p>I väntan på dessa alldeles fabulösa händelser kan jag passa på att tipsa om tre aktuella hårdrockhändelser.</p>
<p>1, Vill-vara-klassiska &#8211; men progressiva &#8211; hårdrockarna Black Bonzo har släppt nytt album; <em>The Guilltotine Drama. </em>Lite softare än deras tidigare och det verkar vara deras bästa. Men det finns riktiga guldkorn som luktar 70-tal så mycket att ni alla får utsvängda jeans och en awsome mustasch av att lyssna på den ändå.</p>
<p>2, Vill-vara-ännu-mer-klassiska hårdrockarna Wolfmother har släppt inte mindre än sju låtar från en kommande skiva eller liknande på Spotify. Givetvis värt att kolla upp!</p>
<p>3, Unga och lovande hard rock n&#8217; heavy roll rockarna Starship Monolit spelar på Nocks i Skellefteå på lördag. Det kan bli en legendarisk spelning och den bör inte missas.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Nu kan jag tyvärr inte, av olika anledningar (jobb), deltaga i årets Trästockfestival. Det känns givetvis lite tråkigt. Men det hindrar inte mig från att tipsa om en akt som alla ni andra borde se!</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.blackbonzo.com/Black_Bonzo.html" target="_blank">Black Bonzo</a></strong></p>
<p><a href="http://open.spotify.com/artist/5tVo5YQYgDK16YHw1syVxk" target="_blank">http://open.spotify.com/artist/5tVo5YQYgDK16YHw1syVxk</a></p>
<p>Skellefteås alldeles eget Deep Purple för det 21:a och något mer proggiga århundradet. Svängigt och spelglatt och ständigt sökande. Med två i skivor i bagaget (och en tredje färdiginspelad och inom kort på väg till en piratebay-torrent nära dig(!)) så har bandet hittat ett alldeles eget sound. För mig hade det varit festivalens &#8220;must see&#8221; om jag hade kunnat gå. Ni hittar dem i tältet, torsdag, kl 0015.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><h2>Top 10 Albums of 2007</h2>
<p>After a long period of deliberation I&#8217;ve completed the grueling task of selecting this past year&#8217;s favourite albums. So without further ado, here&#8217;s my top 10 picks for 2007:</p>
<h4><img src="http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/5897/0602517412453dk8.jpg" align="left" border="2" width="150" />10. Eivind Aarset &#8211; <i>Sonic Codex</i></h4>
<p>Well maybe I&#8217;m overrating this one a bit. Then again, dark tasty instrumental avant-rock with jazz influences is right up my alley <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  Actually scratch that first sentence, this really is awesome stuff!</p>
<p>&#8220;Drobak Saray&#8221;</p>
<p><span style='text-align:left;display:block;'><p><object type='application/x-shockwave-flash' data='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' width='290' height='24' id='audioplayer1'><param name='movie' value='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' /><param name='FlashVars' value='&amp;bg=0xf8f8f8&amp;leftbg=0xeeeeee&amp;lefticon=0x666666&amp;rightbg=0xcccccc&amp;rightbghover=0x999999&amp;righticon=0x666666&amp;righticonhover=0xffffff&amp;text=0x666666&amp;slider=0x666666&amp;track=0xFFFFFF&amp;border=0x666666&amp;loader=0x9FFFB8&amp;soundFile=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fileden.com%2Ffiles%2F2007%2F12%2F15%2F1645716%2F03-eivind_aarset-drobak_saray.mp3' /><param name='quality' value='high' /><param name='menu' value='false' /><param name='bgcolor' value='#FFFFFF' /></object></p></span></p>
<h4><img src="http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/2373/arcadefireneonbiblewl1.jpg" align="left" border="2" height="150" width="150" /> 9. Arcade Fire &#8211; <i>Neon Bible</i></h4>
<p>Very good (gasp!) indie rock, I loved the orchestration and the melodies. The album loses a bit of steam about halfway through, but still it&#8217;s a great listen with some outstanding tracks.</p>
<p>&#8220;Keep The Car Running&#8221;</p>
<p><span style='text-align:left;display:block;'><p><object type='application/x-shockwave-flash' data='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' width='290' height='24' id='audioplayer1'><param name='movie' value='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' /><param name='FlashVars' value='&amp;bg=0xf8f8f8&amp;leftbg=0xeeeeee&amp;lefticon=0x666666&amp;rightbg=0xcccccc&amp;rightbghover=0x999999&amp;righticon=0x666666&amp;righticonhover=0xffffff&amp;text=0x666666&amp;slider=0x666666&amp;track=0xFFFFFF&amp;border=0x666666&amp;loader=0x9FFFB8&amp;soundFile=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fileden.com%2Ffiles%2F2007%2F12%2F15%2F1645716%2F02%2520Keep%2520The%2520Car%2520Running.mp3' /><param name='quality' value='high' /><param name='menu' value='false' /><param name='bgcolor' value='#FFFFFF' /></object></p></span></p>
<p><i>[EDIT Jan 2nd] A good night&#8217;s sleep made me reconsider this one, it&#8217;s not quite top 10 material. </i></p>
<h4><img src="http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/1127/efterklangtrees1pz0.jpg" align="left" border="2" height="150" width="150" /> 8. Efterklang &#8211; <i>Under Giant Trees</i></h4>
<p>Danish <b>Efterklang</b> perfect their original style of classically tinged post-rock with this EP. Couple it with selected tracks from the <i>Parades</i> LP and you&#8217;ll get a very good output from this band.</p>
<p>&#8220;Himmelbergjet&#8221;</p>
<p><span style='text-align:left;display:block;'><p><object type='application/x-shockwave-flash' data='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' width='290' height='24' id='audioplayer1'><param name='movie' value='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' /><param name='FlashVars' value='&amp;bg=0xf8f8f8&amp;leftbg=0xeeeeee&amp;lefticon=0x666666&amp;rightbg=0xcccccc&amp;rightbghover=0x999999&amp;righticon=0x666666&amp;righticonhover=0xffffff&amp;text=0x666666&amp;slider=0x666666&amp;track=0xFFFFFF&amp;border=0x666666&amp;loader=0x9FFFB8&amp;soundFile=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fileden.com%2Ffiles%2F2007%2F12%2F15%2F1645716%2F2%2520Himmelbjerget.mp3' /><param name='quality' value='high' /><param name='menu' value='false' /><param name='bgcolor' value='#FFFFFF' /></object></p></span></p>
<h4><img src="http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/4381/neurosisgiventotherisinmc5.jpg" align="left" border="2" height="150" width="150" /> 7. Neurosis &#8211; <i>Given to the Rising</i></h4>
<p>The wave of &#8220;post-metal&#8221; has been growing ever stronger these past 2-3 years &#8211; but <b>Neurosis</b> remain masters of the genre they&#8217;ve helped create. A mature album offering a unique listening experience and showing all the wannabes how it&#8217;s done.</p>
<p>&#8220;Given to the Rising&#8221;</p>
<p><span style='text-align:left;display:block;'><p><object type='application/x-shockwave-flash' data='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' width='290' height='24' id='audioplayer1'><param name='movie' value='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' /><param name='FlashVars' value='&amp;bg=0xf8f8f8&amp;leftbg=0xeeeeee&amp;lefticon=0x666666&amp;rightbg=0xcccccc&amp;rightbghover=0x999999&amp;righticon=0x666666&amp;righticonhover=0xffffff&amp;text=0x666666&amp;slider=0x666666&amp;track=0xFFFFFF&amp;border=0x666666&amp;loader=0x9FFFB8&amp;soundFile=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fileden.com%2Ffiles%2F2007%2F12%2F15%2F1645716%2F01-neurosis--given_to_the_rising.mp3' /><param name='quality' value='high' /><param name='menu' value='false' /><param name='bgcolor' value='#FFFFFF' /></object></p></span></p>
<h4><img src="http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/2811/thumbalcestbn8.jpg" align="left" border="2" height="150" width="150" /> 6. Alcest &#8211; <i>Souvenirs d&#8217;un Autre Monde</i></h4>
<p>Black metal that&#8217;s dreamy instead of grim? Lush vocals instead of kvlt shrieks? Surprisingly, it works: this is an album of ethereal beauty. Purists have accused this of being a worthless gimmick &#8211; in that case, I fell for it <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>&#8220;Sur L&#8217;autre Rive Je T&#8217;attendrai&#8221;</p>

<h4><img src="http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/5851/shininggrindstoneay7.jpg" align="left" border="2" height="150" width="150" /> 5. Shining &#8211; <i>Grindstone</i></h4>
<p>I&#8217;ve mentioned this one before. The Norwegian <b>King Crimson</b> worshippers have given us one hell of a ride to enjoy. I&#8217;m still kicking myself for having missed them when they opened for <b>Enslaved</b> in London.</p>
<p>&#8220;In the Kingdom of Kitsch You Will Be A Monster&#8221;</p>
<p><span style='text-align:left;display:block;'><p><object type='application/x-shockwave-flash' data='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' width='290' height='24' id='audioplayer1'><param name='movie' value='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' /><param name='FlashVars' value='&amp;bg=0xf8f8f8&amp;leftbg=0xeeeeee&amp;lefticon=0x666666&amp;rightbg=0xcccccc&amp;rightbghover=0x999999&amp;righticon=0x666666&amp;righticonhover=0xffffff&amp;text=0x666666&amp;slider=0x666666&amp;track=0xFFFFFF&amp;border=0x666666&amp;loader=0x9FFFB8&amp;soundFile=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fileden.com%2Ffiles%2F2007%2F12%2F15%2F1645716%2F01_in_the_Kingdom_of_Kitsch_You_Will_Be_A_Monster.mp3' /><param name='quality' value='high' /><param name='menu' value='false' /><param name='bgcolor' value='#FFFFFF' /></object></p></span></p>
<h4><img src="http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/2020/cover32418572007xq6.jpg" align="left" border="2" height="150" width="150" />4. Trettioåriga Kriget &#8211; <i>I Början och Slutet</i></h4>
<p>Perfectly executed hard prog from the Swedish veterans. I love the feel and sound of this album. Can&#8217;t wait to see them on the boat! What boat? I&#8217;ll tell you later <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>&#8220;Ryattaren&#8221;</p>
<p><span style='text-align:left;display:block;'><p><object type='application/x-shockwave-flash' data='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' width='290' height='24' id='audioplayer1'><param name='movie' value='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' /><param name='FlashVars' value='&amp;bg=0xf8f8f8&amp;leftbg=0xeeeeee&amp;lefticon=0x666666&amp;rightbg=0xcccccc&amp;rightbghover=0x999999&amp;righticon=0x666666&amp;righticonhover=0xffffff&amp;text=0x666666&amp;slider=0x666666&amp;track=0xFFFFFF&amp;border=0x666666&amp;loader=0x9FFFB8&amp;soundFile=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fileden.com%2Ffiles%2F2007%2F12%2F15%2F1645716%2F10%2520-%2520Ryttaren.mp3' /><param name='quality' value='high' /><param name='menu' value='false' /><param name='bgcolor' value='#FFFFFF' /></object></p></span></p>
<h4><img src="http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/1131/153652uv5.jpg" align="left" border="2" height="150" width="147" />3. Reverend Bizarre &#8211; <i>III: So Long Suckers</i></h4>
<p>The Finnish doom metallers&#8217; final LP, this is music designed to crush every mortal soul in existence. I consider this 2hour+ juggernaut of an album in the same league as <i>Epicus Doomicus Metallicus</i> and <i>Master of Reality</i> &#8211; the only reason it&#8217;s not #1 is you just can&#8217;t listen to the whole thing in one sitting, unless you&#8217;re a vile cacodemon from the depths of Hell.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not uploading a song &#8216;cos you don&#8217;t listen to <b>Reverend Bizarre</b> on a fucking blog, you faggot.</p>
<h4><img src="http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/4084/black20bonzo2020sound20ka4.jpg" align="left" border="2" height="150" width="150" /> 2. Black Bonzo &#8211; <i>Sound of the Apocalypse</i></h4>
<p>A great leap forward from their debut, the new LP by <b>Black Bonzo</b> is a stunning collection of kickass progressive rock songs. The only reason this isn&#8217;t #1 is they&#8217;re still quite indebted to <b>Uriah Heep</b>, <b>Jethro Tull</b> and <b>Queen</b>, but the way they incorporate these influences is brilliant, and <i>Sound of the Apocalypse</i> is a really strong album throughout.</p>
<p>&#8220;Thorns Upon A Crown&#8221;</p>
<p><span style='text-align:left;display:block;'><p><object type='application/x-shockwave-flash' data='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' width='290' height='24' id='audioplayer1'><param name='movie' value='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' /><param name='FlashVars' value='&amp;bg=0xf8f8f8&amp;leftbg=0xeeeeee&amp;lefticon=0x666666&amp;rightbg=0xcccccc&amp;rightbghover=0x999999&amp;righticon=0x666666&amp;righticonhover=0xffffff&amp;text=0x666666&amp;slider=0x666666&amp;track=0xFFFFFF&amp;border=0x666666&amp;loader=0x9FFFB8&amp;soundFile=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fileden.com%2Ffiles%2F2007%2F12%2F15%2F1645716%2F01%2520Thorns%2520Upon%2520A%2520Crown.mp3' /><param name='quality' value='high' /><param name='menu' value='false' /><param name='bgcolor' value='#FFFFFF' /></object></p></span></p>
<p>And now, what we&#8217;ve all been waiting for&#8230; <!--more--></p>
<h4><img src="http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/7784/hhr42400tq5.jpg" align="left" border="2" height="150" width="150" /> 1. World&#8217;s End Girlfriend &#8211; <i>Hurtbreak Wonderland</i></h4>
<p>I&#8217;ve been saying &#8220;the only reason this isn&#8217;t #1&#8243;, but it&#8217;s clear in my mind that some Japanese dude called <b>Katsuhiko Maeda</b> has created the best album of 2007. Forward-thinking instrumental music as constantly vibrant, interesting and intense as this is quite rare. Of course it&#8217;s not perfect &#8211; one major gripe I have is that sometimes he overdoes the glitchy SFX thing &#8211; but it&#8217;s a very important album, at least for me.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ghost Of A Horse Under The Chandelier&#8221;</p>
<p><span style='text-align:left;display:block;'><p><object type='application/x-shockwave-flash' data='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' width='290' height='24' id='audioplayer1'><param name='movie' value='http://wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/audio-player/player.swf' /><param name='FlashVars' value='&amp;bg=0xf8f8f8&amp;leftbg=0xeeeeee&amp;lefticon=0x666666&amp;rightbg=0xcccccc&amp;rightbghover=0x999999&amp;righticon=0x666666&amp;righticonhover=0xffffff&amp;text=0x666666&amp;slider=0x666666&amp;track=0xFFFFFF&amp;border=0x666666&amp;loader=0x9FFFB8&amp;soundFile=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fileden.com%2Ffiles%2F2007%2F12%2F15%2F1645716%2F05%2520-%2520Ghost%2520Of%2520A%2520Horse%2520Under%2520The%2520Chandelier.mp3' /><param name='quality' value='high' /><param name='menu' value='false' /><param name='bgcolor' value='#FFFFFF' /></object></p></span><br />
Here&#8217;s some other excellent albums that almost made it into the top 10:</p>
<ul>
<li><b>Dodheimsgard</b> &#8211; <i>Supervillain Outcast</i></li>
<li><b>Anna Järvinen</b> &#8211; <i>Jag Fick Feeling</i></li>
<li><b>Wolves In The Throne Room</b> &#8211; <i>Two Hunters</i></li>
<li><b>Alamaailman Vasarat</b> &#8211; <i>Maahan</i></li>
<li><b>Deathspell Omega</b> &#8211; <i>Fas &#8211; Ite, Maledicti, in Ignem</i></li>
<li><b>Battles</b> &#8211; <i>Mirrored</i></li>
<li><b>Herbie Hancock</b> &#8211; <i>River: The Joni Letters</i></li>
<li><b>Martin Grech</b> &#8211; <i>March Of The Lonely</i></li>
<li><b>Dungen</b> &#8211; <i>Tio Bitar</i></li>
<li><b>Radiohead</b> &#8211; <i>In Rainbows</i></li>
</ul>
<p>Stay tuned for some final thoughts and the whole list of albums that 2007 has left me with. Oh, and Happy New Year everyone! <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> <i><br />
