Advantages: Brutal hardcore/new metalcore, not afraid to try a new aproach Disadvantages: No consistancy throughout, awful crooning choruses, odd techno flourishes that go nowhere
, 'Sinai Beach' they're called and this album's called 'Immersed'. They're home to Victory Records, one of my favourite labels and one I certainly take pride in purchasing albums from.
I was looking for some great music and/or DVD's to add to my collection, having also bought a copy of 'Himsa's' latest insane offering, which by comparsion makes this record seem alot worse than it is. While watching the Victory Show on a combined CD/DVD release from another Victory band, I noticed an advert between every other track with the 'Sinai Beach' album art and some pounding metal playing in the background that sounded great. This was a while ago mind, but a friend of mine was also watching this DVD and he thought they sounded good, but didn't have a care in the world for the artwork.
So it was, that based on that impression I purchased this one ...
Advantages: Turbo Fan, secure wall mounting, switchable turbo fan Disadvantages: Mechanical thermostat with turbo fan can be attention grabbing!
One of the many heaters I tried was this Dimplex free standing/wall mounted convection heater with Fan Boost. I decided to try this after a returning my 4th failed Bionaire BCV3100 heater.
The wall mounting arrangement was very affective in securely locking the heater to the wall using 3 simple hooks. The unit is very light weight. There are 2 switches on the side. A power On/Off switch and below that a Hi/Low switch. Below the switches there is a mechanical thermostat to further regulate the heater. On the front of the heater integrated into the turbo fan grill there is a switch to turn the turbo fan on or off. A nice feature is on a hot day you can run the turbo fan without any heat, this provides a cool draft from the heater although it is not as affective as a desktop fan though. The turbo fan can be switched off only if ...
I bought this heater because my bedroom has two outside walls and as it's a downstairs extension one of those 'walls' is a patio door and so, especially in the winter I needed some extra warmth in my room.
I went out and after looking around at a few different heaters I eventually decided on the Nikkai Electric heater. There were three reasons for my choice:
1. Id had the rectangular shaped heaters and found that although they did effectively heat up the room it took a while for you to get the full benefit of the heater, I hoped that this fan heater would be quicker at heating up the room.
2. There were two different heat settings: 350W and 700W. These would allow me to adjust the amount of heat I wanted from it depending on the weather, how long wed had the central heating on etc
3. The price! It was only £9.99. Although ...
