Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”

Tom Cruise might be completely batshit insane. But damn the man can act. I mean, OK, fine, we’d have to throw Top Gun out as a mulligan, I suppose- it’s the gayest non-gay movie ever made, it’s ridiculous beyond words, and the acting in it...

Symphonic-metal fans, like LastRedoubt, will probably appreciate this: That’s a single off their new album, Moonbathers, which despite the rather naff title is in fact not bad at all. I’m not yet convinced that it’s better than their previous...
