Advantages: No fillers Disadvantages: Absolutely Nothing
This is the album that introduced me to Marilyn Manson and i can still remember the feeling that it gave me when i first listened to it. I had heard nothing like it before, the driving force of the music and lyrics combined entranced me for an hour. From This Is The New *hit, a brilliant techno, thrash triumph that builds throughout the verses to a crashing empowering chorus to mOBSCENE, the lead single from the album with its disco thumping rock beats. Doll Dagga Buzz Buzz Ziggety Zag brings us a swing inspired 4 minute rock romp whilst the next track Use Your Fist And Not Your Mouth is an angry fist throwing in the air inducing stomp!
The GoldenAge of Grotesque takes it's place next in the tracklisting next with it's incredibly odd music style which includes a burning piano being played by manson himself. The controversial (s ...
Advantages: Wireless connectivity to Xbox live, Simply to setup Disadvantages: Ridiculously expensive, Doesn't come in black to match my Xbox 360 Elite
If, like me, you have an Xbox 360, you will no doubt be aware of the dynamic and enjoyable facility available to you online, namely Xbox live. Xbox live is a place where you can download demos and game add-ons, chat to your friends, and stream movies and videos direct to your Xbox 360 in glorious high definition. But while the Nintendo Wii and the Sony Playstation 3 can go online straight from the box without any additional hardware, Microsoft, in their infinite wisdom, decided not to include wireless connectivity as standard in the Xbox 360.
This leaves you with a couple of options should you wish to get your Xbox 360 online; an Ethernet cable from your router is probably the cheapest way, but in these wireless days I was really looking at reducing the cables stretching around my home, not add to them. There is another method ...
Having tried to connect my 360 via ethernet to my wireless connection, through my Mac or my Windows laptop, and having no success, this provided the only feasible solution.
Unfortunately, unlike the PS3, the Xbox 360 is not wireless-ready out of the box, and in order to make it so, you must invest a further £50+, which is quite a pain in the rear.
Unfortunately, it seems that, in making the console itself so cheap and appealing, Microsoft aim (as always) to make their money on the peripherals, which everybody needs for the full gaming experience.
Nevertheless, this does exactly what it says on the box (sorry to be cliched).
Plug-and-Play, as expected, you connect it to your console and through your dashboard, search for your wireless connection and, with your WEP key or security key at hand, you can instantly connect to your ...

Album Notes
Personnel: Thomas Dolby (vocals, piano, synthesizer, programming, wave computer, electronic percussion); Kevin Armstrong, Dave Birch (guitar); Simon House (violin); Simon Lloyd (flute, brass); Andy Partridge (harmonica); Daniel Miller (synthesizer); Matthew Seligman, Mark Heyward-Chaplin (bass); Justin Hildreth (drums); Bruce Woolley, Lene Lovich, Lesley Fairbairn, James Allen, Judy Evans, Les Chappell, Akiko Yono, Mutt Lange, Miriam Stockley (background vocals). One of the most satisfying examples of the genre of early-80s British synthpop. Thomas Dolby's debut is surprisingly warm, human, and at times nostalgic, qualities not usually associated with synthesized music. Ballads like "Airwaves," "Weightless," and the enveloping, operatic "Cloudburst At Shingle Street," are thoughtful and direct, and the more upbeat songs, like "Radio Silence" and the manic "Europa and the Pirate Twins" (featuring harmonica by XTC's Andy Partridge), are as fun and catchy as anything released in 1982. Purists may feel that the original version of the album, featuring two early tracks dropped off this second US edition, is superior, but in either incarnation THE GOLDEN AGE OF WIRELESS is a synthpop classic.
