Haste the Day, Dreamer, Album Review




Artist: Haste The Day

Album: Dreamer

Released: Oct 2008


Almost as soon as I realised another Haste The Day album was out I had extremely high hopes, being as I rate the other albums so highly. The band can be described and ball-parked into a variety of different genres and when people find out that they are a Christian band they automatically associate it with bands like Underoath.

Bayonetta review (Xbox 360 version played)



Why? People confine their own freedoms with such a drone, one-word question. How about why not? Why not pitch the player as an over-sexualised witch, wearing a suit formed by her hair, who can spawn monstrous behemoths, turn into a panther, and bring it all together to fight angels?

Taking to my Soapbox 1: For shame, gamer!


Content warning: Some of the content in the videos contain offensive language.


Let’s be honest here, people behave differently when they step into an online game. Identity is lost, along with responsibility.

People feel more confident to speak their mind, no matter how damaging it could be. It’s not disapproving the right to speak freely; rightful use of free speech in online communities is respected. However, when I hear nothing but racism, anti-Semitism and homophobia on multiple matches of Halo 3, it’s time to draw a line.
