I got a new graphics pen at work, and I’ve been practicing in using it. And I’m also warming up for a new round of Super-Hero & Side-Kick-Boy.
Anyhow, here goes:
Last night I went out with my sister. She wanted to check out a café which have some singer/song write events, because she’s thinking of playing there at some point.
The place is called Blågaards Apothek and is located in an area I used to pass for nearly 1 and a half year when going to work.
So it was to my surprise that when we turned around the corner and went down the street, that a nice little walking street unfolded in front of our eyes (I imagine it’s how Harry Potter felt when he went through the wall to find Platform 9 3/4).
We arrived at Blågaards Apothek and this little café is one of the most cozy places I’ve been to in Copenhagen in a long time.
So so far the evening had just been, yeah, magical! :p
The event had three singer/song writers to play for us, and the third artist immediately caught our attention. She is called Katy Gunn and is from New York. She started out playing the song “Out of Touch”, which you can hear on her MySpace, and it was just really awesome.
And the most amazing part was that her performance was mainly done by her and her only (with exception of a few songs, where she got help by a bass player).
So I’ll highly recommend to check her out – there’s an album on the way in November I think 
I’ve recently started to use Spotify, which is just brilliant. It has a “similar artist” feature which is great.
So I used this feature the other day and found a band called The Blood Brothers, which sounded interesting.
I checked out their albums and they sound really interesting. They have two vocalists, and one of them sounds like the regular post-punk singer, while the other has a voice that’s hard to explain, but I’ll try anyway: I-don’t-give-a-crap-about-this-so-I-will-sing-like-I-do-not-care-but-sound-like-a-clueless-girl… It doesn’t probably make any sense. Well, I don’t know how to describe it 
My researched did show that the band (sadly) isn’t around anymore. But as Refused so nicely put it: This is the shape of punk to come. I don’t like punk, but I love Refused – and now I love The Blood Brothers too. Sad to see that the original punk bands all break up.
I search Youtube for songs with TBB, but haven’t been able to find the ones I’d like to post, but this song is decent, so I’ll show you anyway:
The Blood Brothers – Love Rhymes with Hideous Car Wreck:
Ready for some Friday rock party music?
When I logged into Youtube the other day, there was a song on the recommendation list that caught my eye.
It was with a band called Mutemath and the song title was Chaos. It was a live recording from the Craig Ferguson show and the band performance just blew me away.
It’s an alternative pop rock band from the states, and they’ve released two albums so far. And both albums is highly recommendable!
How do they sound? I’d say you can compare them to a mix of Phoenix and Maroon 5. They have a lot of the alternative sound from early Phoenix, but with the pop’ish approach as Maroon 5.
They also released a live DVD recorded in Japan, and a great deal of these videos can be seen on their Youtube Channel. They have an amazing energy on stage, and I wouldn’t think twice about seeing them live!

My colleague Rasmus sent me this video the other day.
It’s the song Ritalin from the band Dancing Pigeons. There’s no pigeons dancing around in this video though. It’s an epic battle between a flamethrower and a fire extinguisher.
Looks pretty cool!

Did you spent an endless amount of hours on Torchlight?
Well, there’s some good news for everyone who did. Runic games announced a sequel this week, and even had a little revelation at this weeks GamesCon.
The only thing the first game really lacked was the possibility to play multi player (and seriously, what is a game today without MP?!)
Let’s just hope they’ll release both Mac and PC versions simultaneously this time!
Are you scared of zombie movies? Or that one day a real zombie outbreak should occur?
Well, you shouldn’t be. Mother nature is there to protect you! Here’s 7 scientific reasons why a zombie outbreak would fail quickly.
Have you, like me, ever wondered what you should use an iPad for?
Well, here’s a suggestion. How about find a lot of different music apps and then make cool remakes of old songs?
I give you “Eye of the Tiger” iPad style:
Vetonet has been down for a long time now, but now it is back online.
The guys from Veto is trying to create their third studio album. But they can explain it all much better than I do!
But I’m looking forward to see what they can come up with this time!

It’s a week ago I saw this movie, and I had to go see it again (which I did). And I still had to wait a few days before I could write about it… and why?
Inception is one of the best action movies with an actual story I’ve seen in a long long time.
In fact! I think the last one I saw was The Matrix (the first one). And I can understand why some people actually compares the two movies.
They both use the concept of “What is real?” (and it’s not a coincidence since the first draft for the movie was written by Nolan around the time he did Memento, which is around the same time The Matrix was out).
The action sequences are phenomenal! Especially the fighting sequences in the hotel looks awesome.
What is the story then all about?
In the near future it’s possible to enter a shared dream state, originally invented by the military for training in killing.
We follow Leonardo DiCaprios character Cobb, who is an extractor. He can extract information from the victim by entering their personal “vault” through shared dreaming (by diving into their subconscious).
His line of work isn’t legal, and we do discover pretty quickly that he can’t return to his kids back home in the states. But a wealthy businessman offers him a job, that could be his one last job, so he can return home.
The only problem though. He doesn’t want information from a victim, but instead he wants Inception – to plant an idea in a person.
So we then follow Cobb assembling his team, and then planning and performing the perfect (reversed?) heist!
It’s really hard not to say too much about this movie, without spoiling it – but if you like the original Matrix, then you’d love this one – if you like good action, with a story you can choose to think about (or not), then you’d love this movie – if you love Will Ferrell, don’t bother with this movie
Is it worthy of a cinema trip? Hell yeah!
