Gaming preview: 'LittleBigPlanet'
"LittleBigPlanet" is one of the most ambitious games to come along in quite some time. The title is more than just a straightforward platforming adventure. It allows you to create and share custom-designed levels with the rest of the gaming world. Those levels are then rated by users and the best rise to the top. "LittleBigPlanet's" art-style, combined with its unique gameplay, truly give PlayStation 3 owners something to cheer about. "LittleBigPlanet" lands into stores October 28.
For its fifth release, Blackalicious has created a record of such sonic depth and breadth and lyrical ambition that it can proudly stand alongside the work of Bay Area funk fathers Sly Stone and Shuggie Otis, or hip-hop classics like Outkast's Aquemini, The Roots' Things Fall Apart and Gang Starr's Daily Operation. But The Craft is not nostalgia for some "golden era" that never existed, it represents state-of-the-art hip-hop with an expansive worldview. From its opening, the sublimely orchestrated Stereolab-esque suite of "World of Vibrations", The Craft moves from peak to peak-including the Prince-ly rush of "Powers", a sinuous funk summit with George Clinton on "Lotus Flower", and the seductive meta-futurist soul of "Automatique," which features special guest vocals from Floetry. The Craft reveals one of global hip-hop's best-loved crews achieving another artistic breakthrough. "It's my favorite of all of our albums," says the Gift of Gab. "I think that it's our best album."

Submerged in Dirt: "Sterile Room" (practice)
"Here's the funny thing about death metal: at a certain speed and intensity, it turns into sonic abstraction and enters the world of post rock through the back door. That's certainly the case with Tulsa's Submerged in Dirt, whose flesh-eating intensity can't hide the fact that their sound is stealthily smart." - Editors, Download.com Submerged in Dirt is a band that developed from the outskirts of Tulsa, OK. In an area known to many as the "Bible Belt" we have successfully transcended the limitations put on us by our surroundings, and have created? some of the most brutal music ever conceived. Our style relies heavily on dynamics and key progressions (two things that our genre have long forgotten) while at the same time we utilize extremely powerful vocals. Our fan base is ever growing and we have set out to make a name for ourselves among the greatest metal bands ever. This video is practice footage of our latest song Sterile Room. By the way, Submerged in Dirt are Gods!!!
