- First post in 3 months, yay!
- The reason for my silence: I recently moved to Canada, and the last couple of months have been hectic. Hopefully now that things have settled down somewhat, I’ll start writing here again.
- Many music releases lately. And So I Watch You From Afar’s new album is amazing, so is the new Explosions in the Sky, so is the new Mogwai. A trio of phenomenal instrumental rock bands. If you don’t know them, check’em out.
- Radiohead, however, released their worst album since Pablo Honey.
- Biggest musical disappointment: the new dredg album. They turned from art-rock of the highest quality into a bland and boring pop-rock band. I can’t believe how atrocious their new album is. I have decided it’s the last dredg anything I buy, until they start writing music again. And now I’m also stuck with a t-shirt that came in a bundle with their CD that I preordered.
- Fave 5 movies of 2011 so far: Source Code, Hanna, Paul, Insidious and Rango.
- Cannes begins tomorrow – such a great line-up this year. Can’t wait for the first reports.
- Got tickets for Seinfeld this August, front row 
- “Fringe” ended Season 3 with a bang. And what an amazing season it was.
- “Community” can’t seem to do any wrong. All their episodes feel so fresh and inventive.
- “The Strain”, by Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan, is one of the best novels I’ve ever read.
