"Somewhere I'm human" live at Szene in Vienna

Andreas found this clip on youtube. It's from the October-tour.

The sound is pretty raw and distorted, but I kinda like it anyways.

Thanks to "kingmadmats" for filming (and maybe singing some backing vocals?).

What else?

The link from the latest blog entry to the list in People magazine was apparently

not working, so here you have it in full flesh:

(Boy Omegas ten favorite songs)

Kate Bush - Cloudbusting
Mount Eerie - I Hold Nothing
The Marquis de Tren and Bonny Billy - 2/15
Simple Minds - Reel To Real
Portishead - Silence
Depeche Mode - Waiting For The Night
The Bear Quartet - The Lost Kid Office
Grouper - Disengaged
Radiohead - Idioteque
Animal Collective - Banshee Beat

Currently listening:
Mount Eerie

Release date: 2003-01-21

10 favorite songs

The swedish magazine/website People asked me to pick ten of my favorite songs.

Have a look at the list here:

You can also listen to 8 of the 10 songs in Spotify.

All the best,

Martin.

TODAY IS THE DAY! THE NEW BOY OMEGA ALBUM IS BEING RELEASED!
Current mood:

hopeful

Yes, today is the day. Friday the 13th. Now isn't that something? If you have Paypal, you can buy the album directly from me: http://www.voidfaith.net/band/boyomega/ghost.htm The price is €12 including shipping worldwide. If you don't have Paypal, you should be able to get it from most record stores (physical and digital) all over Europe. I could recommend: Riptide/The Pleasure Syndicate Amazon

CDON

You can now also listen to five songs taken from the album in our myspace-player. The vinyl version of the album will be released on Nov 26.

If you live in Sweden, you should come see us play at Pustervik in Göteborg next Saturday. It will be sort of our release show for the new album. The great Damien Jurado is playing as well. Big hugs, Martin.
