What band am I ?

you are fear factory
I am Fear Factory. I’m a a revolutionary who
is angered by the conformity and autonomy of today’s society. I am sickened by scandals such as MTV, and respond by fighting back. Internally, I am very emotional. I hide this by keeping a cold and dark exterior.

Flicking hell.

Quarter is a film that shows that, despite having way too much time on their hands, some utter losers have an immense wasted talent. Just watch it.

Blowing the trumpet

Me
Ever the one to blow my own trumpet (if only I could reach it), I thought it’s worth a cyclo-cross update. I’ve now won the North West cyclo cross league with still two rounds to go. Nice feeling. Warm glow, etc. But…. the icing on the cake came on Sunday 18th December, on a freeeeeeezing day at Beacon Hill park a few miles from Wigan when I managed my first victory of the season. Hooraaaaah! There was a slightly smaller field (46 signed on at the start) but I made it convincing, clearing off straight from the start and extending my lead on each of the seven laps of the woodland / hillside circuit. The slight down side was that it was so cold that there was a tiny gathering of spectators to see me come over the line in first place, but that’s not a big deal in the grand scheme of things.

Pandora, box and all

Ever since the Music Genome Project, people would ask, “Can you help me discover more music that I’ll like?”.

The Pandora Project is the next step on, allowing you, for free, to type in an artist or tune that you like, and listen to similar music, in a radio station type way. It works fairly well. Requires a reasonably quick (not dial-up) connection. Well worth a visit.

Q-unit

This is what happens when you mix Queen with 50 cent. You’ve been warned. Reminds me a bit of the Grey Album project, which shouldn’t have really worked, but most think it did. Alot better than this. i know it’s tongue in cheek (I hope it’s tongue in cheek0, but it’s still grating like mad.
