Whelll, at the behest of my professor, I will be narrowing the focus of my raging fountain of opinions to that of music. She suggested perhaps I focus on the Topeka music scene, but apparently someone forgot to tell her...THAT IS AN OXYMORON! (apologies to my good musician friends who continue to toil on gallantly in their attempts to change this depressing but indisputable fact) .Therefore, I will continue to share the good news (or the bad) about music in general.

Today's tidings will be a continuation of my ongoing attempts (previously on Facebook) to help further the world conquest of the fantastic Danish Electro-rock band CARPARK NORTH. After over a year of listening heavily to their music, I can say that they are my favorite band currently active. Is is heavy yet electronic, full of great melodies, harmonies, and musicianship, and lyrics that are sometimes emotional, sometimes cerebral. It's easier to just listen and love than to sit and read half-assed descriptions so...

Here's their award winning video for "Human". It is the song that first introduced me to these guys. The video is amazing too.
