I’t looks like the Crysis demo has been pushed back, originally it was going to be released on Halo 3 day, but looking this morning for any info on the demo I found this in the EA Forums.

I’m waiting for this game, looks like it will hit stores November 16th, 2007.

Saline Warm Springs

A week or so ago, we went on a trip to Death Valley, yes you read this right. In the midst of the summer with 122 degree weather during the day and prob 90-100 at night. The first day was a drive down from the San Francisco Bay area though some various small towns stopping on the way at Happy Burger in Mariposa. I have to say by that time I we where all pretty hungry and well lets just say Happy Burger made our stomachs very happy After Mariposa we headed though to Yosemite National Park, took some candid tourist shots and headed to our hotel in Bishop, CA for a good nights rest before heading into Death Valley (Saline Valley). The next day we headed into the desert, 2 jeeps and one truck with 15 gallons of water and more of gas. Our first stop was at some random location to check out these odd looking tree’s which my friend quickly pointed out they where Joshua tree’s.

Ok enough of these tree’s onto our next stop Eureka Dunes which is quite an oddity to see in this area of the world. Its almost like the Sahara desert but in the middle of Saline Valley. A big sand dune was created over thousands and thousands of years in this middle of this valley.

After what seems like thousands of miles driving in the warm 122 Fahrenheit weather, we came across this oddity the Saline Warm Springs which is pictured above. After stepping into this hot tub and realizing it was cooler in the hot tub than outside we decided to make this our camping spot for the rest of the day and the evening…. Did we ever make it out of Death Valley? Tune in next time to see what happens to 5 guys, 2 jeeps and one truck.

This is a new track off of the upcoming cd titled “Oblivion with Bells” which is due out some time in October 2007.

Quicktime version (different): Crocodile Video

Youtube version:

I saw them last Friday at the Warfield in San Francisco and deff have to say they rocked the house. I have seen them many times but Carl had a lot of energy at this show and I think they where pretty excited to play in San Francisco.. Check out their new cd when its out or check here for any updates about Underworld.

On October 16th, Side One Recordings will release Underworld’s Oblivion with Bells, the duo’s fifth studio album and their first since A Hundred Days Off in 2002. On Oblivion with Bells, the Underworld palette is richer than ever: epic techno nestles next to frail acoustics, beatific prose next to sharp, urban observation, amazing sound texturing mix with mobile phone recordings.
