VNV Nations' new CD is his best yet, it is truly awesomely brilliant, exciting and all those types of things. It's still futurepop rather than the EBM that VNV started out as. It's a dark, brooding and yet pounding masterpiece.

Likewise, Assemblage 23's new album is also pretty good.

(Er, I've been to Resurrection Records... it's been ages since I got some CDs)

Also I picked up a Icon of Coil remix CD, which is on-average better than their (sometimes badly judged) albums.

I've also picked up (but not listened to) a Combichrist CD, and (more riskily) an Ayria CD because I liked "Horrible Dream" that I have on a compilation.

I've finished reading Prof. Richard Dawkins' The Selfish Gene (1976)... and well, it was so amazingly good that I'm going to have to write out my thoughts when calm, relaxed and objective. He is my greatest hero.

5 new CDs...

"Mindstrip" by Suicide Commando (fucking rocks! Yes!)

"Failure" by Assemblage 23 (Yay, top quality clean EBM, bouncy)

"Mechanical Animals" by Marilyn Manson (is now one of the best rock albums I own)

"Organica" by "Kill Switch... Klick", is ok, nice simple slow semi-alternative stuff, nice music to come on random every now and then, and a good album to do something else to. Not very inspirational, but not annoying like EBM's bad moments.

My 5th CD is a present for Orinoco :-)
