Quantum Fantay - Bridges of Kukuriku

Quantum Fantayn uusimman albumin Bridges of Kukurikun ennakkotilaus saapui tänään, virallinen ilmestymispäivä 8.10.

1. Kukuriku Pt.1
2. Follow The Star
3. Shiver Moments
4. Portable Forest
5. Counter Clockwise
6. Kukuriku Pt.2

Tunnelmat ensikuuntelun jälkeen: muistuttaa yleisotteeltaan Agapanthusterra-levyä eli bändi jatkaa tiukasti samalla musiikillisella linjalla kuin aiemmin. Ei huono linja, mutta voisi silti varioida rohkeammin. Kukuriku Pt.1 ja Pt.2 ovat meneviä biisejä, Portable Forest hyppää rautalanka-spacerockin puolelle ja Counter Clockwise erottuu rauhallisena saarekkeena nopeiden rallien keskeltä. Pidempää tuotekehittelyä olisivat biisit mielestäni kaivanneet, mutta menee tällaisenaankin vuoden suosikkilevyjen luokkaan. 4/5

'The Archive' by Sean Dunne

Anti-Fantasy vs. Anti-Mystery

Examining Watanagashi-hen alone, when the culprit admits to the conclusion Rena comes up with in her deduction, that particular deduction is "complete". That means the deduction that marks "XX as the culprit" was "accurate at that moment in time". And then in Meakashi-hen, we are suddenly given a lot of new information that weren't present in Watanagashi-hen. So appropriately, the fact that "the true culprit is someone else" can be easily understood.

Broken Lines

BROKEN LINES is an independently produced illustrated/graphic novel in progress. It is a weird mixture of prose, sequential comic art, and like, charts 'n' footnotes 'n' sidebars, too.

Michael G. R. Tolkien - Wish

Tolkien, who has published six collections of poetry, was forced to self-publish Wish through Authorhouse after publishers turned the book down.
"My agent tried with admirable persistence and tact every cast of possibly appropriate publisher both here in the UK and in the USA, and it received plenty of favourable comments; but apparently the sticking point was simply a puzzlement as to what shelf it would sit on to sell," http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2010/aug/11/tolkien-dickens-descendants-collaborate
