Bursting Radiance - Review on Linkin Park's "A Thousand Suns"

Howdy kids, it's your favorite -- ah, screw it, let's just jump on into it. I'll start right off the bat by saying this review will have very mixed opinions in it, however I feel as a fan I must throw my two cents out there. A mere couple weeks ago Linkin Park released a brand new album dubbed "A Thousand Suns" using the springboard of their single "The Catalyst."

Right off the bat this album is drastically different than their previous work on "Hybrid Theory", "Reanimation", "Meteora" and "Minutes To Midnight," sadly some may not see this as a good thing. Even with "Minutes To Midnight", although it was very experimental and more eclectic in it's nature partly brought on by producer Rick Rubin who also produced this album as well, it still had the sound and vibe of Linkin Park if not on the whole album then on a select handful of tracks. With "A Thousand Suns" there are less examples of the old LP however in further exploration of the album it is really the next logical step.

When The Hell Was "Facebook" A Verb? - Review on "The Social Network"

Seriously, when was this period I missed out on? Not because I regret not being in on it but because that's one of the dumbest thing's I've heard, "Facebook me." Oh well, Twitter's got the latest hold on having their website's name as a verb. Good thing about "Twittering" someone is that inside you're probably chuckling a little. (Perv.)
Anywho, I've just come back from seeing David Fincher's latest cinematic capsule known as "The Social Network", or to the snarky "Facebook: The Movie." I'll admit I being a Fincher fan and a general roamer of the internet when discovering this film thought, "Seriously? This has to be a joke." Then as time went by that dwindled up to the trailer's debut and it changed to, "Now I gotta see this movie." And I'm sure many people who still were iffy after that and saw it ate their own words, I can only hope so. For those who don't know of this project, it centers around the creators of the popular social network site (Get the title now?) Facebook and how success tore their friendship apart featuring Jesse Eisenberg (The Michael Cera that can act) as the founder and public wanker number one Mark Zuckerberg, Andrew Garfield as the CFO Eduardo Saverin who got screwed harder than a Thai hooker, and Justin Timberlake as huge blowhard Napster founder Sean Parker.
