Cerebral Metalhead: Exhausted Prayer / Dreaming Dead - Fall Into Ruin Tour Begins Tonight
http://www.cerebralmetalhead.com/2010/10/exhausted-prayer-dreaming-dead-fall.html
Wednesday, October 20, 2010. Exhausted Prayer / Dreaming Dead - Fall Into Ruin Tour Begins Tonight. I'm coming out of semi-hibernation to help spread the word about a West Coast tour that I would see every night had I the time, financial means and ability not to come off as creepy for treating underground metal bands like the Grateful Dead. Exhausted Prayer share provenance (Los Angeles) and a drummer (Mike Caffell) with Dreaming Dead, whose debut. Worst of All Possible Worlds. You also need to see.

Cerebral Metalhead: D.I.S. - Critical Failure (Deep Six Records, 2010)
http://www.cerebralmetalhead.com/2010/08/dis-critical-failure-deep-six-records.html
Tuesday, August 24, 2010. DIS - Critical Failure. Deep Six Records, 2010). It took me a long time to understand why D.I.S. (Destroyed In Seconds) guitarist Leon del Muerte would ever willingly quit. After seeing him play in Phobia and. Just signed to Relapse! I started to understand. And D.I.S.'s debut. Clinches it: Del Muerte prefers the direct to the oblique, the visceral to the heady. And that means unfiltered death metal, punk, thrash and grind. Guitarist Bruce Reeves played in SoCal grind stalwarts.

Cerebral Metalhead: 5/1/11 - 6/1/11
http://www.cerebralmetalhead.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 09, 2011. GO: Midnight/Saviours/Lightning Swords of Death, 5/14/11 @ The Roxy in L.A. How about we pretend that it hasn't been five months since I've posted. Agreed? More than any record though, I've missed going to metal shows over the last couple months. That's why I'm looking forward to Scion's next free metal matinee, coming up this Saturday at the Roxy in L.A. And also why I'm going to insist that you join me. And City of Devils. Will provide the soot-choked atmosphere. If there is a...

Cerebral Metalhead: Ovrcast 5th Anniversary - Friday the 13th in L.A.!
http://www.cerebralmetalhead.com/2010/08/ovrcast-5th-anniversary-friday-13th-in.html
Wednesday, August 11, 2010. Ovrcast 5th Anniversary - Friday the 13th in L.A! As the price of a concert heads towards nil, my interest in attending it often heads the same direction. Why would a worthwhile band choose to play a slapped-together free show when they stand to make more money from a door charge at a proper club? And if there's a major sponsor footing the bill, who am I really supporting by attending? Are on tour like 580 days a year, so you know they're well-oiled. Huntress (reviewed. Are no...

Frenzied Palate: December 2011
http://frenziedpalate.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Adventures in eating, drinking and wandering around. Monday, December 12, 2011. First Look: CaliBurger ie "The Fake In N Out". Gasps of amazement and horror rippled through Shanghai amongst those familiar with the California burger joint, In N Out. Apparently had a media night on the eve of its opening as well as to introduce the three finalists of the CaliBurger Girl Contest. I am there at 12:30 on Friday, December 9, 2011. I wanted to see what they were about and how CaliBurger. Hi, how can we help you?

Frenzied Palate: August 2012
http://frenziedpalate.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Adventures in eating, drinking and wandering around. Wednesday, August 15, 2012. Kale Mango Banana Smoothie. A morning or mid-afternoon smoothie is one of my go-to healthy treats. It is pretty easy to dump a bunch of fruit in the blender with a splash of juice or soy milk and give it a whirl. Banana is my favorite smoothie base because it gives the smoothie a creamy and luscious texture so you can almost. You can ingest raw greens without having to eat it in a salad. By relying on the natural sweetne...

Frenzied Palate: April 2012
http://frenziedpalate.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Adventures in eating, drinking and wandering around. Sunday, April 1, 2012. McFlurry International - China 2 Part II. The "blackberry jam flavor" McDonald's McFlurry sampled in Harbin. Is back on the McDonald's China menu in Shanghai. My Chinese character recognition improved significantly at this point. Please allow me to correct that entry in that this 麦旋风 (mài xuànfēng) is in fact 黑加仑 (hēijiālún) or black currant. The price has gone up from 10RMB to 11RMB since last year.

Cerebral Metalhead: CHAINMAIL: Drowned Sorrow - Fittings at the Coffin Shop EP (self-released, 2010)
http://www.cerebralmetalhead.com/2010/08/chainmail-drowned-sorrow-fittings-at.html
Friday, August 13, 2010. CHAINMAIL: Drowned Sorrow - Fittings at the Coffin Shop EP. The CHAINMAIL section reviews bands that were proactive enough to contact me directly. Here at Cerebral Metalhead, initiative is rewarded. I like The Red Chord. A whole lot. So do. Long Island's Drowned Sorrow. On their first official EP Fittings at the Coffin Shop. Drowned Sorrow synthesize many of the same metal-, grind- and deathcore elements as THC, but the similarities run deeper than genre signifiers. Both bands.

Thursday, November 25, 2010. Vaulting - "We Are the Cavalry" Video. So It's Thanksgiving. The best of us will try to extrapolate some meaning from the holiday, acknowledging the sad truths about its origins (check out this link. Germany has its own version of Thanksgiving, a religious celebration called Erntedankfest. Literally "harvest festival of gratitude" - read more here. Birdie, sleep well. Far glimpse from hell. Boredom an insecure partner to keep you from death. Rest in your shell. What's more in...
