My trip to mexico and thoughts on the xbox one

the first day i arrived with my family at mexico city and from there droved to cuernavaca a town relatively near to the final destination that was acapulco a city of one of the many states of mexico thats more known for its beaches than anything else.

well theres the fort of san diego that has and interesting story behind it related to the independence of the country, thats all i know about but i did went to la quebrada which is a place where theres a cliff near the ocean where divers do shows at different times of the day.

when i was in acapulco a lot of roads where being fixed and there was some traffic in some parts of it because of this, the hotel where i stayed was like a small city inside a large one something like that.

about mexico city two things whats up with the sewage system because in various part of the city where i walked in there was a strong smell coming from the sewers, second didnt know that the historical downtown of the city was so crowded specially in the afternoon, if youre interested in seeing some of the alternative culture of the city go there.

and some quick thoughts on the xbox one i never use my xbox to see movies or tv and im never online, even if its just for 24 hours i dont see the need to have the console be online almost all the time; and the new kinect is more big than the old one im interested to see how it works with games though it seems annoying that the xbox wont work if its not connected to it.

im curious about what 15 exclusive titles there will be, hope they are good 

 
 

Favorite albums of 2012

2012 was a good year for music, one had to look a little bit sometimes to find it but it was there.
the albums arent in any order whatsoever to be honest.

i admit this list is arriving a bit late but its better now than never

The Sword-Apocryphon

good metal record inspired by sabbath

Sun Kil Moon-Among the Leaves

another good record from mark koselek

The Sidekicks-Awkward Breeds

the band tryes to experiment with other genres and it works

We were skeletons-Blame and Aging

a band i didnt knew a lot about surprised me with this record that can be classified as screamo or post hardcore.

Murder By death- Bitter drink, Bitter moon

what I’ve always liked about this band is the feeling of sadness and sometimes dread you find in their songs.

Autums grey Solace-Divinian

 










ethereal sounds that transport the listener to another place, interesting and beautiful music from a band that has always done great shoegaze or dream pop albums.

School of Seven Bells-Ghostory

I hate categorizing things but this does have elements of electronica and shoegaze. The vocals are what makes the record so endearing but the instrumental part is great too.

Torche-Harmonicraft

Apart from being inspired by sludge metal, it does seem to have other elements that make it interesting and different from other records also making it the bands best record.


Minus the Bear- Infinity Overheard  

the band is back on track after their last record, reminiscing sounds from their past and tweaking them with new ones

Alcest-Les Voyages de l'Âme

One of the bands best records to date, perfect combination of envolving and calming sounds with aggression

Sithu Aye- Invent the Universe
a rather unknown progressive metal artist that makes interesting and thoughtful music

Future of The Left- The Plot Against Common Sense

 









the band keeps releasing great albums and this is no exception , i really like how every song is different and has certain elements that make them stand out from others.


John K. Samson- Provincial

good solo debut of the weakerthans frontman

The Men-Open Your heart

im relatively new to this band but apart from having and interesting sound, they make long songs that arent boring but intricate in their own way.

ill add the honorable mentions later
