Stereopol


Check out Stereopol, an up and coming norwegian band.

Stereopol plays melodic and honest schizo-pop and jumps from genre to genre within the blink of an eye. We give you the pleasant feeling of getting run over by a hit squad on Vespas through the streets of Bratislava. In the intersection of evil and optimism we cowardly maneuver ourselves within the borders of the surreal and the shameless. The bandtorch got lit during a festival last year over an argument regarding which of the members who had the most shiny forehead. Nobody won, but the torch still burns and is getting stronger by the minute...

Darth Vader




David Prowse, a weightlifter from Bristol, played the role on screen but the voice was that of James Earl Jones. He was so convinced the film would be a flop, he refused to allow his name in the original credits.

Ivan Drago

Ivan Drago (Russian: Иван Драго) is a fictional character that appeared as Rocky Balboa's rival in the 1985 film Rocky IV. He is portrayed by Dolph Lundgren. The character and his catchphrases have gone on to inspire multiple mentions in popular culture, including in the Family Guy episode "Brian Goes Back to College", the Chuck episode "Chuck Versus the Final Exam", film Disaster Movie, as well as the name of Michigan heavy metal band, If He Dies He Dies.

GodGolf

This is truly an amazing natural phenomenon. Tragic for the man that died, but still extremely awsome. As you can see, it gave me the "GODGOLF" idea.

My last breath

I Did Not Die




Do not stand at my grave and forever weep.

I am not there; I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow.

I am the diamond glints on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain.

I am the gentle autumn’s rain.

When you awaken in the morning’s hush

I am the swift uplifting rush

Of quiet birds in circled flight.

I am the soft stars that shine at night.

Do not stand at my grave and forever cry.

I am not there. I did not die.



-Melinda Sue Pacho



NB: Notice the soul leaving the body trough the mouth. Enjoy!
