Freaking awesome side scroller video
My friend Brian sent this over to me today, and it is freaking awesome. It is a animation short done like a old school side scrolling fighting game, ala Final Fight or Double Dragon. Check it out. Below is a link to a torrent where you can download it.

Wolfmother album review
Rock music has been on the downslide the last couple years with a couple bright spots such as The White Stripes, but Wolfmother is about to change that with their U.S. self titled debut this May. Bone crushing cords, thundering drums, and some psychedelic lyrics make for some great songs for a debut. The album starts with the powercord anthem Colossal, which only sets the tone for the rest of the album. Joker and the Thief just take you back to turning on your black light and smoking out and putting your headphones on to Zepplin and Black Sabbath. Later tracks become more dynamic in their delievery like Tales From The Forest Of Gnomes, which starts out as a slow paced dreamland then breaks into an upbeat anthem with some great guitar work. I also have to mention Dimension, which has an AWESOME power riff and the lyric, Purple haze is in the sky. Anything that has purple haze in a song is cool with me. This is the perfect album to pickup for the summer months ahead, and for those who need to fill that rock void.

E3 is quickly around the corner
So the biggest show in all of gaming is just around the corner and I am getting ready for all the great information. Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Revolution, and more. It should be an awesome show. I hear bits and pieces of some games that should be on the floor, but I don’t want to spoil anything. I should have photos and video from the show each night, so stay tuned.
Recent Tunes added
So I am really starting to fool around with various plugins for Wordpress, and I found a pretty cool one that displays my most recent played songs on the sidebar. So now you can get an idea of what I have been listening to. Got to give a shoutout to Roblog for the great plugin.
Probably the funniest video ever…
My pal Jon sent this over to me, and I almost started to cry because I was laughing so hard. I present to you…
Doing another redesign
So after my site was taken down by my host, I thought I should try a little harder to make the site easy to read and shuffle around the design a little bit. I tend to do this a lot. Everything still works on the Wordpress framework, so everything should still work in the mean time.
