lene lovich vs siouxsie sioux

lene lovich - bird song


In the late seventies Lene Lovich was actually pretty big. I loved her first album but this single - Bird Song - is from her second album Flex which was released in 1979. I'm not really sure when this video was released - if it's from 1979 it's absolutely fabulous. If it's from the early eighties then it's just brilliant. She looks and sounds fantastic anyway!

(Seems like the video is from 1980 so it's pretty damn awesome compared to most of the videos from that time.)

the creatures - right now


The Creatures was a side project for Siouxsie Sioux and Budgie. If you were a part of the late punk and early goth movement you know the impact Siouxsie had. There must have been at least 5 Siouxsie wannabes/look-alikes in Falun where I spent my teens and that's a lot considering how few goths there were in Falun back then. Right Now is their first single and it was released in 1983. I love this song. It was such a great contrast to the kind of music that the Siouxsie & the Banshees made at the time. It's kind of related to The Cures The Lovecats which also was released in 1983. Happy songs made by goth royalties.

(This post was first published in February this year but the video links were removed.)

dexter - resistance is futile



I'm just repeating myself. Dexter is great. Do yourself a favour and watch it. What will happen with Doakes? And Dexter? Can they make peace? Maybe frame that annoying and insane British girl Lila for the murders? What about that? I sure would like that. Dexter without Doakes would be a bit less great. Can't the next episode be here now? The end of Resistance is Futile was too exciting. Need to know what happens.

dexter - morning comes

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Ouch! This was almost too much. More things happens in this Dexter episode than usually happens during three or four episodes in most other TV dramas. Everyone seems to be trying to mess Dexters life up right now. Doakes is back and he's not the forgiving type. The police is on Dexters trail and Rita, Lila and Debra all do their best to f**k with his mind. One of the ladies choose to take it a bit further than so. That's a bit too far for Dexters liking. A great episode. One of the best so far. How will they end this??

dexter - that night, a forest grew




Dexter is in really good shape right now. The perfect blend of relationship drama, Miami Vice and Seven. Lila is still a total enigma. Is she just plain crazy or does she have some darker secrets hidden in her past. Maybe she has more in common with Dexter than he thinks. The same goes for Sgt. Doakes. He finally lost his cool and was temporarily, I'm sure, outwitted by Dexter. We know that both are capable killers. I'm sure Doakes thinks that he's just doing his duty. But is that really true? Will they make peace or will only one of them survive this season? That's one of many big questions right now.

burial - untrue

archangel (audio only)


raver (audio only)


Burials new album Untrue has been out for a week now. It wouldn't surprise me if this, his second album, will become as important for dubstep as Goldies Timeless album was for drum & bass. Untrue is a dark slow paced album. Waves of bass moves on together with minimalistic rythm patterns. Short warped R'n'B samples gives it all a feeling of loneliness and longing. They sound like echoes of distant prayers or mantras. I've tried the album on the commuter and it gave the ride a surreal dream like quality. I wasn't really sure if I was awake or asleep. This is my favourite album so far this year. Pure beauty.
