Ardisdic.

Indeed it means that, too.

Does it?

And now for something completely different.

Oh, few videos as well. Not sure what it is in their sound, that appeals to me.

Organs are like bacon. Suit everywhere and the end result is always better with than without. Jon is my Lord. I shall keep no other Lords.

There is this young chap called Heikki Ranta, who has created musical pastiches on YouTube during the last few years. He selects an established Finnish artist or band, analyses their most typical peculiarites and creates a new song that often sounds surreally similar to the original style. He's brilliant, but since an international audience isn't aware of, say, Nurmio's or Leskinen's peculiarities, what's the point in introducing him? Well, now there is a reason. (The song itself starts at about 6:00.)

What a time to be alive.

This is it. The Internet finally administered a coup de grâce for my brain.

I realize there's a basho going on, but I need to remind Ningen Isu released a new album earlier this month.

Hmm, probably the only Finnish music video with Japanese titles from Hyyrynen Bros, a new "death schlager" from Viikate and something from Tähkä.

Few more for the weekend. Midwives of Ruin operate on that thin strip between bad taste and conventionality.
