Ahhh, it's my first official week back, and as you probably don't know, it's been a difficult journey. A terribly difficult journey. You see, way back when, a very long time ago, my computer crashed, and along with it my (not very) extensive musical collection.

So, it took quite a while to get most (if not all) my music back, and I'm back to scrobbling again! I'm just here to review what my first week back to this was like.

1. Opeth

Obviously, I mean, c'mon. Out of all those weeks that I've scrobbled, Opeth comes up first almost every time. The only time I can recall that it didn't was probably that week I went to the Reel Big Fish concert. That was great. Anyway, back on track. Mikael Akerfeldt is a God. This cookie monster growls and the lyrics and the music all blends in so well together. Oh and the clean vocals of course. I mean, it's like... magic in my headphones. =D

Favourite Mellow Tracks:

Benighted
In My Time Of Need

Favourite Heavy Tracks:

Deliverance
Master's Apprentices
