The new Nine Inch Nails album is out and available to purchase and download on their site. You can download the full album for $5, order their double CD version for $10 and even download some songs for free if you just want to try it out. Personally I want to order the $75 pack (even considering the $300 one) but since it’s an instrumental I want to hear it first before I put down my money. Thats why I am currently downloading the free songs first. [Link]

Thanks Cajie

Update: Good think I didn’t pay $75, the album sucks without vocals. Don’t think will even pay $5 for it.

Last July I posted a video of 1500 Filipino prisoners dancing to Thriller. Well they’re back again and this time they’re dancing to MC Hammer. What kind of prison is this?? [YouTube]

Since its Kuwait’s National Day next week I decided to post some of my favorite songs I used to hear when I was a kid. They are all available on YouTube and you can check them out below. By the way is it just me or does Kuwait in general seem less decorated than the previous years? Usually the majority of the buildings in Kuwait City would be covered with lights and flags but other then the KTV building nothing has grabbed my attention this year. Strange…

عيدي يا بلاد
امبارك عليك العيد يا بلاد
كاسروه دله
كلما زادت المحن
كويت والعرب

First the Spice Girls and now this. According to People magazine NKOTB are going to make a comeback 15 years after they split up. I guess Take That is next. [Link]

update: YouTube has removed the video

The 90’s are coming back in style and although there was a lot to dislike (Mc Hammer pants) the color combinations of the 90’s were just completely messed up but in a good way, like the London 2012 Olympics logo. Anyway Vanilla Ice is still alive and looks like he is still cool as ice. [Link]

Fuck, FINALLY! [YouTube]

The song above is called Peaches which is my favorite from the new stuff. Here are some more new songs all of which were recorded from a concert that was held last week.

Wicca
Hunter
Mystic
Machine Gun

If you are like me and have a collection of old vinyl but can’t carry then when you travel, well we have found salvation! This bad boy can rip your old records to your computer for easy transferring, editing and scratching. Also the best part is once your are done you can still use it as a stand alone 3-speed player.

Posted in the forum a few days ago by izgerty. I think its really cheesy. [YouTube]

I am trying to find the original video for this version of Sabo7a on YouTube but all I found was this version with a woman singing, this version by Miami Group (don’t even think its the same song) and this newer redone version. Anyone know where I can find the original?

update: Here is the video thanks to Moayad [YouTube]

A few months ago I posted a video of two Kuwaiti sisters (twins) with amazing voices singing the US national athem. Well I got an email a few days ago with some new info. The two sisters Sharifa and Aishya Al-Zaabi now go by the name Odyssey. Seems they are now signed up with Young Hustle Records which are based in Texas. They have four songs available online which you can listen to by following the instructions below:

1) Go to www.soundclick.com/younghustlerecords
2) Click on the music tab on the right side
3) Look for the following songs; “Love Is Gone”, “I (Don’t Know)”, “Dance For You” and “Love Is”

If you click on the video tab you can also find some videos of them performing live, I’ve attached one of their videos to this post.

update: Seems they are NOT yet signed up with Young Hustle Records, they are just friends with the label.

Good music and cool viking. I really need to start working out. [YouTube]

Thanks Lexicon

Just a reminder, the new Radiohead album, In Rainbows is going to be released tomorrow as a download. The album will come as a 48.8MB zip file which will contain 10 new songs in MP3 format (160kbps). The album doesn’t have a price, YOU price it. Basically you decide how much you want to pay for the album. I figured $10 is fair so thats what I paid, tomorrow morning once the album gets released I will get a code by email which will allow me to download the album. Can’t wait… [Link]

update: I downloaded the album today morning and I’m currently listening to it at work!

Pre-order Radioheads latest album! [Link]

I just checked out Amazon’s MP3 store and it turns out it works with Macs, iTunes and my iPod! The prices of the songs are cheaper than the iTunes store plus they are DRM free. You can try it out by visiting amazonmp3.com

Update: Ok now I am pissed, just tried buying a song and I got the following message:

We are sorry…

We could not process your order because of geographical restrictions on the product which you were attempting to purchase. Please refer to the terms of use for this product to determine the geographical restrictions.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.

Update 2: Ok I just tried it again and it worked. I had my primary address my UK mailbox for some reason so I changed it to my US address and it worked. I just purchased my first song and I am currently downloading it! You do not need a American credit card, I used my NBK one.

Update 3: Finished downloading. The tiny Amazon software automatically added it to my iTunes and the song included a high resolution album art cover. Purchasing this song was just tooo easy so I am kinda worried now that this is going to be addictive.
