I just bought a Canon-EOS-550D to replace my older EOS 400D. I bought the 400D in January 2007 (4 years ago). What made me change was:The much improved sensibility and noise performanceThe Live view on the LCD screen, which can be very useful in difficult conditions nhile shooting in gigsThe step from 10.1 megapixels to 18 megapixels, and the ability to shoot movies with the camera, are

Very funny review of this almost unknown splatter movie. Worth watching, the only problem is the review is in French.

Here is the link to a very interesting interview of the leader of Watain by Metalkult.The energies that we evoke are real. We let them manifest.They really believe in what they are doing. That they believe in total chaos is not a problem, because that's how they are able to create. Their way is not everyone's way, but it's undoubtedly their and their only.

However my PC did not handle Shaders 3.0 at the time, I had to get recompiled Shaders for the game somewhere, so some of my bad impressions of the game could have been related to that.I have now a state of the art laptop, and I was able to play this game will

There have been a lot o whining lately from Left 4 Dead gamers about the fact that Valve announced a new Left 4 Dead 2 game in late 2009. They say they feel that they were cheated because the new game should have been released as free DLC, and that Valve has abandoned Left 4 Dead support and development. Some of them even say that the game is unfinished or unplayable.Just immature whiners.Valve

Steingrim Torson was the talented vocalist of the Norwegian Black Metal band Celestial Bloodshed. He was shot to death in the stomach by his best friend, who happens not to remember why he did that...

An update about the upcoming 1349 album: It is still not available on amazon, but it seems it has been already released on iTunes. However, you can already listen to samples of the album titles and buy them (or the whole album). I will still wait for the CD ;)

Considering the excellent gigs where I have been the last months.Shining was playing at Glaz'art in Paris (a space increasingly used for extreme metal shows) on March 2, with support from Sarkom and Koldbrann. Shining was as good as ever. And if you really want to know, this time Kvarforth did not cut himself but burned himself with cigarette butts..However, I was impressed

Judging by the first who were lucky enough to be able to hear the new 1349 album, it seems that it will be another extreme achievement of extreme Black Metal !! All indications are that 1349's forthcoming CD, "Revelations of the Black Flame" (Candlelight), will still sound like Satan hammering on a ax borrowed from Dimebag Darrell, as vocalist Ravn screeches all manner of abomination and

Vorkreist is an excellent Death / Black Metal band from Paris. Their last (very good) album, Sublimation XXIX A, is from 2006, and they are preparing a new one which should appear in the following months I think.I was pleased to see a short review of this album on the Black Metal Owns You blog.

I just downloaded the Left 4 Dead demo yesterday evening (containing the first two maps of the first chapter of the video game), and started to play yesterday late in the evening, and also today. I did not look for online coop gaming yet, because I first wanted to better understand how the game was working for me (it is possible to play alone with internet switched-off, in that case the computer

I read some reviews about Far Cry 2, and as I liked its predecessor (hmm may be not much the Sci-Fi part, the monsters were much less convincing that the humans), I began to be interested.But although the game exteriors seem to be really gorgeous, it also seems to fail in a number of ways:Character models really look like some cheap plastic. This was not a problem in a game like Doom 3, because

For me, it is a really good Death album.All this will be followed, by:Primordial on November 9thEnslaved on November 18thThe last Satyricon album, The Age Of Nero, followed by the tour and the concert on November 23thMorbid Angel + Keep of Kalessin + Marduk on November 28thCradle of Filth +

No I'm not blogging about WWII history. You just should check out Dead to this World, a really excellent Black / Death Metal band from Bergen, Norway (of course, what would you expect ?). And 1942, from their album First Strike For Spiritual Renewance is really a masterpiece (and it's available on streaming on their myspace page). Iscariah, the leader of the band, is a former member of

Wow there's no way to be disappointed !!! The Converge show was really a killer !!NO wonder that Jacob Bannon has to stretch himself before the show !! They are insanely fast and really, really "hard". Also it seems that they put all their life in the show. Of course they are not the only ones, but it's good to see that !!!And it turns out that I will also see them Monday in Paris. Why ? Hmm, I

Tomorrow I'm off to London for the Converge show.Why do you go to London to see them, when they are coming to Paris in one week ? No I'm not crazy (hmm maybe a little, but not so much). It turns out that I will be on a plane heading to the States on Monday 21st. And I only saw them on Hellfest last year. I want to see them performing once in a small venue, like the Underworld (Camden, of course).

Last Saturday I came back home by foot, on a dark night, after having seen Night of the Living Dead, the matrix from where all horror films came out. There's funny stories about this movie. For example, their distributor forgot to put a copyright indication on the movie, and it soon fell in the public domain. You can download hordes of disgusting zombies for free, and more, you can do it legally

It was difficult to go back to reality after this ;-) Hope it was not too difficult for my Japanese (metalheads) friends Dai and Kyoko, who took the plane from Osaka to France (more than 12 hours, plus connexions) just for the festival (I don't forget Aki, who show me such evil pictures of her with Frost, Attila, Necrobutcher, or E).

Yes this Mayhem had to come to an end. This was a great festival this year too !! My highlights (and biggest deceptions) are:The weather, no rain this time !!! And cold at night, so it was perfect to rest after one exhausting day !!The organization was flawless this year.

Hellfest looks to be really great this year:first the weather should be better than last year - not that it will be very difficult ;-)second it seems that the organization (camping sites, etc...), has been improved too - it was easy to improve too... but what is the most important thing: the bands.

This is an interesting interview of Peter Beste, who photographed a lot the Norwegian Black Metal culture.See hereThe video shows some amazing pictures of Gaahl 1349, Frost, etc... Judging by this video, we can strongly link the Norwegian Black Metal scene to Norwegian nature and surroundings (For example, Gaahl seems to live in the small farm in the middle of nowhere in Norway).Link found on

Look at this below. What is going on here? Who is speaking ?Of course (just kidding), Andy Warhol and his one-time muse Edie Sedgwick. They were young, and Sedgwick was the Factory's superstar. In 1968, Warhol was shot, in 1971, Edie Sedgwick died (probably by intoxication). The lesson is: don't try to extend your 15 minutes of fame too much, or be aware of the consequences.

I just bought today the last album from a Norwegian Death Metal band called Chtonian, I must confess I never heard about them before. Did you ? Turned out that they started in 1999, but were for the main part comatose, as said on their web site, the three musicians playing separately in different projects. They went back to work in 2005, made a first demo in 2006, and then this first album in

Plus if you really, REALLY, REALLY wanted to shoot gory movies for a long, long time, now is your lucky day ;-) There's a contest on the myspace page for the movie for its future release on DVD (so you

Hopefully.In 2000, I was on holidays in California, and I stumbled upon the Clinton speech during the Democratic convention. Wow, this man was a fabulous orator !! I could not witch off the T.V. set until after he finished his speech. Even if I am French, even if knew so little about U.S. politics, even if the other orators were boring.In 2004, I stumbled upon the Barack Obama speech during the

Hi all !! Have a merry Christmas under the Christmas tree, or the Christmas Cactus, or under no tree at all, in the freezing cold night, waiting to perform a dark unholy rite ;-)And prepare for next year. You need preparation for the European Militant Antichrist tour 2008, in April / May 2008, with Angelcorpse, Revenge, and Arkhon Infaustus.But also prepare yourself with the crazy Polysics, next

At least, the promised photos from Arnhem Metal Meeting... The best shows (at least for me): Unleashed, powerful as ever !! Asphyx, they were great, their set was awesome, as in London some months ago...Marduk, bathed in bloodNifelheim.

No, I did not forgot the pictures of Arnhem. Be prepared for real Metal bands, folks...But, All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy... I have important informations to give, they released the trailer for the ultimate war-splatter film: Minesweeper: The Movie.

I'm just back home tonight from Arnhem Metal Meeting: One day of metal in this Dutch town, at one hour from Amsterdam by train. Believe me, it was not easy to get up this early one cold Saturday morning just to take the first Thalys train at 6h55 in the morning... But the festival was worth it...Stay tuned with soon coming pictures of various Black, Death, Trash and Goregrind bands such as

No, this time it's not about Death Metal... Though I will soon go to Arnhem for the Metal meeting next Saturday:No, this blog is for once about another style of music: I just stumbled on Unsraw, a rather new Visual kei Japanese band. This band is more metallic than others (maybe because of the "beyond the grave" voice of Yuuki, the singer).If they ever come to Paris, I surely will go to see them

OK, this is some sort of joke, as this post is about some pictures of the late (and great) Gorgoroth show.Gaahl sometimes looked like a Patriarch from hell:This man could lead his crowd right until Hell, it seems:He is clearly inspired - the only problem is maybe WHAT inspires him ;)These infernal forces had total support from King ov Hell:, Teloch,,and SykeligOK, the whole set is here

Despite French strikes in public transport, I still could arrive in time for the Gorgoroth / Enthroned / Tyrant gig. It was easier for me than for a LOT others, because I'm not far away from Pigalle (and for those who don't live in Paris, be aware that Pigalle is not only the famous Paris Red-light district, but also home of many of the best venues in Paris: La Loco, the Elysée Montmartre, The

Tomorrow is the gig with Gorgoroth (hmm, one of the parts that split recently, Infernus have another Gorgoroth myspace page here) and Enthroned, with support of the Australian band Tyrant.What will be Gorgoroth without Infernus ? More news in a few days it seems ;-) However, it seems that Gaahl and King (ov Hell) want to keep the name for themselves, and it's the same for Infernus. However, the

Some great quotes from members of 1349 and Neurosis. Here you are:Frost (1349): "We are not a commercial band, which means that we are not creating music in order to entertain people, we are not creating music to please the record label, and we are not having sales figures in our head when we are making music".Archaon (1349): "That would restrict the art.

As you may already know, Gorgoroth has split: Gaahl and King ov Hell had seemingly fired Infernus, but Gaahl states that they will perform the 2007 European tour (which is cool, because I already have my ticket...). OK, this is not really a split.I never saw Gorgoroth on stage, hope this set will be good despite of the fact that one the the last founder will not be there...

Yes I said I would go back on this subject. Here we are !! It was at La Locomotive, one of the main venues in Paris for extreme Metal shows. It's small compared to others (capacity: 300 people). These bands never make the big big venues in Paris: Le Zenith (6000), Bercy (17.000), or the Stade de France (80.000), hé hé... Which is maybe fortunate because then you can be close to the stage, shake

It was in 1995, in a Newsweek article: The Internet? Bah!.Logged onto the World Wide Web, I hunt for the date of the Battle of Trafalgar. Hundreds of files show up, and it takes 15 minutes to unravel them -- one's a biography written by an eighth grader, the second is a computer game that doesn't work and the third is an image of a London monument.

It started after this excellent gig in Paris (really a milepost in metal shows this year).

For those of you who don't live in Europe, you can visit for free a lot of monuments and sites that are usually closed to the public.I decided to visit the Musée Dupuytren, a little place full of specimens illustrating various malformations and diseases.
