Sometimes life happens, you know... Relatives and old friends visiting, deadlines looming, code crashing, that kind of stuff...
Anyhow.
As a kid, I wasn't especially fond of the "Find the differences" games. It always looked a bit contrived, and if the Devil's in the details, why should I want to drive him out ?
However, I came across some really endearing versions by Ivoryboy: the first version consisted in finding only 5 differences. A sequel has been released a few weeks back, where you have to find 6 differences this time. The graphics are still amazing and very soothing, and o don't I miss the City.
OK, what's the point, will you ask ? Well...
I recently bought "The Fallen Aristocracy EP" by the danish trio Northern Portrait. It had been heartily suggested by one of my favorite record-store clerk, as some very good Smiths-inspired pop-from-the-North, a la Cats On Fire. I can't but agree.
You still don't see where I'm going ? Well, let's play, then:
On my left:
Crazy - Northern Portrait
On my right:
Dizzy - Vic Reeves and the Wonderstuff
Enjoy...
Oh, and Northern Portrait are releasing a new EP (Napoleon Sweetheart) some time this month, yay!
