Evening Dusk

I don't know why, i love taking pic of sky, especially evening dusk. For me, it's just plain beauty, natural and God's gift. Best scenery ever :) This are taken outside my house.










Oh ya, all are taken with my SE C905 hp. No dslr or camera involved :D

Cloudkicker

CLOUDKICKER is an instrumental progressive metal solo project of Ben Sharp from Columbus, Ohio. He's released his debut album "The Discovery" in 2008 and an EP "The Map is Not the Territory" in 2009.

CLOUDKICKER writes, records, mixes and masters his own work and has made them available for free download at http://cloudkicker.uk.googlepages.com/. The downloads are available in high quality MP3 and FLAC.

WHY THIS BAND IS IN THE ARCHIVES:

CLOUDKICKER rhythmically, is heavily influenced by "Nothing" and "Catch Thirty-Three" era MESHUGGAH. Many of the fundamental drum patterns and the heavy use of syncopation should feel instantly familiar to the fans of either of the above albums, as well as the ultra-tight gridlock between the drums and guitars. However, on top of the angular riffing and the mechanical rhythmic patterns are layers upon layers of atmospheric melody that makes this music come across as some kind of ethereal math-metal/post-metal hybrid. Think a mixture of the rhythmic permutations of MESHUGGAH, the strangely dystopian melodic flights of TEXTURES ("Drawing Circles" more so than any other album), and the winding atmospherics of bands like ISIS and LONG DISTANCE CALLING. They were approved by the Prog Metal Team and are very highly recommended!

Finally..

Lols! Last entry, 20 June 2009, a year ago. Wonder what happen during the whole solid year? So far, nothing much changed. Hope for more salary increasing :) Music? Been a year plus I didn't jamming *sigh* I miss the jamming days. Oh well, I still digs into undergrounds/underated bands. Nowadays into post rock/progressive stuff. Will post some bands in the next entry.
Hobbies? Whole year was into bb soft air gun, Gundam and recently mountain bicycle (MTB) especially offroad cycling. Total trilling, total fun and of coz, I get to know alot of people. Oh ya, its FIFA World Cup 2010 season now. I prefer underdogs countries to win. Those big teams have conquered the scene since ages ago, its time to change. Really hope Asia countries can make into, at least, quater? If can, semi :D Go Korea! Go Japan!
