Do you ever wonder what is in my player when I don’t have new music to review? Since I play music when I am at home almost constantly, it would be a dayjob to keep up with that, but maybe every now and then, just to give you an idea and just to give you an idea of what albums are good enough to play when the novelty is gone. On Wednes- en Thursdays my girlfriend is mostly not at home when I come home from work. That is when I often play the more extreme things that I don’t want to bother her with too much. Then it is often tekno, digicore, power electronics and sometimes metal. Yesterday I suddenly felt like playing metal, something like Dimmu Borgir (Enthrone 97), nah, Cradle of Filth? not today, Ancient (Mad Gradiose Bloodfiends 97), hmmm; but then my eye fell on At the Gates so I played their only good album: The Red In The Sky Is Ours (92). While reading later on I put on the first two Stoa cds (Urthona 93 and Porta VIII 94), man I hadn’t heard them in decades. When reading I play something more tranquil of course. On the way home from work today I was already thinking what to play after At the Gates. That other album (With Fear I Kiss The Burning Darkness 93) isn’t that good. Dark Tranquillity (my favourite metal band)? In Flames! Another thing that I haven’t heard in ages. So I put on Lunar Strain (94) and Subterrenean (95). I think that will be enough of metal for a few months to come!
