Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark meets Motorhead

Or at least thats how my father described Enter Shikari.



I decided to put their musical musings on in the car on the way home from buying Casino Royale and their album.

Now I know he likes O.M.D and some Motorhead, however the two mixed I think hes going to need some convincing about.

Me on the other hand, I was sold when I downloaded their single from iTunes, so far its reached 39 plays, though thats probably going to stop going up as I listen to the album instead.

So far my favorite song has to be 'Today won't go down in history' - For some reason I always like the slower songs, they're just a change of pace I suppose, especially when you're used to the faster harder songs some bands produce. And this song just reminds me that not every day has to monumental, but it still has to be lived. Not to meantion the line 'I never meant for this,' which I would love to sing with all my heart, if only I could sing.

If you haven't already got a copy of Take to the Skies I whole-heartedly encourage you to buy it, after all its only £6.94 from Tesco, and you'll get Casino Royale for £9.64 if you buy them at the same time!


I'm onto my second watching of Casino Royale as I write this, no doubt thats number WILL grow as the night goes on. I've yet to start my actual essay, but hey I've got a grand total of about 10 hours left, should be easy right? Well if I don't sleep, I don't plan on doing so anyway, I'm not in a sleeping mood tonight, too many trips down memory lane me thinks. Plus if anything I need to prove to MYSELF that I can get this essay done and pass, I need to know that a man can change his stars, no matter what has happened in the past.


Well I have refreshments for the night ahead, Casino Royale is on in the background, iTunes is on shuffle, lets just hope I can put 2,000 words into a coherent narrative before noon tomorrow! Unless I'm afraid to admit I will be dangerously close to failing my 2nd year at University. And everything seemed to be going so well.
