Kicking Off 2012 With a (Metal Interviewing) Bang

First of all, happy new year to anyone who visits my site, whether you're a first timer or a regular visitor (I think there's about three of those). 2012 has seen me make two main new years resolutions; To finish the things that I already have on my plate before taking on new ones, and to get more involved in certain aspects of life in the Cambridge area (namely getting back to playing tennis, and more involved in the Cambridge Drupal community). It's nearly the end of January, and I'm not d....

Top 10 Rock & Metal Albums of 2011

Doing the traditional "top 10 albums" post for me this year is the most difficult one of these top 10s I've done to date. There have been so many albums I've enjoyed this year I could easily do a top 20, but wanted to keep it to a top 10 to keep with tradition. The top 5 albums have been fairly set for awhile, though the order was in doubt until very recently. The bottom three could easily have been any three from around 15, but all earned their places, so here is my top 10 albums for 2011, with....

A Rocksins & Metal Press Catchup

Things have been extremely busy lately, even more so than usual.

Insomnium Live Review From The Camden Underworld November 15th 2011

What were you doing last Tuesday? If you weren't one of the several hundred people inside an almost sold out Camden Underworld for a night of quality melodic death metal, then you seriously missed out. Insomnium's first ever headlining tour across Europe has been an event long awaited by their deservedly growing fanbase, so after seeing them once in a support role (with Swallow The Sun) and after missing them with Dark Tranquility due to a family emergency last year, as soon as the headline tour....

A very useful Drupal blog

A colleague and good friend of mine, Jonathan Stidwill has recently (well when I say recently, about 2 hours ago) set up a new blog focusing on Drupal (primarily Drupal 7) over at his personal website which is Stidwill.com. It already has some very useful posts on some of the more advanced basic topics within Drupal 7 such as querying entities and doing some rather nice stuff with rules. So for any Drupal readers of this blog, I thoroughly recommend you head over to Stidwill.com and check it out....
