End Of The World



Ways mankind(or the majority of it) are likely to end:

  • Robots
  • Climate(Nuclear winter, Global Warming climate change, etc)
  • War
  • Intense Disease
  • Aliens
  • Natural Disaster(Meteor, Volcanic Winter, Sun exploding, etc)
  • Large Hadron Collider


Not much is new personally, still diddling around with music stuff. The weather is springy. I enjoy a warm rain infinitely more than snow.

New Album Format, in addition to the regular information, there will be a 1-5 star rating(worst-best, respectively) for most albums.


Sigur Ros - Hvarf/Heim
Post-Rock | Largely Instrumental

I can't honestly think of how to make this better, there's not even much that compares to it. Beautiful in its own way, though certainly not for everyone.


Nine Inch Nails - Ghosts
Electronic | Ambient | Dark | Instrumental
Release Date: March 3, 2008

At first, I was completely disinterested in this album, being familiar with the band's previous works. However, it is a huge departure, skewing towards dark ambient. The whole album is Creative Commons, and the first part is available for free download off the official site. Music-wise, it is expectable ambient, not unenjoyable at all. With Radiohead and now NIN choosing alternate, digital releases, perhaps this new wave is coming sooner than expected.
