Dommin



Have you heard Dommin yet? I recommend that you do so now so you don't miss out. This Los Angeles-based goth rock quartet was signed on to RoadRunner Records in 2008 and recorded an album, Love Is Gone. The album is currently available only as a pre-order at this time, but you can download their first single from the album, My Heart, Your Hands through Napster, iTunes, and Amazon.

Or, you could go to RoadRunner Records' website and sign up to be a member. When you do, you get a free album download. Unless they've changed it since I joined, you get to choose one Metal or one Rock compilation album FREE just for joining. If you select the Rock Album, you'll get "Between a Rock and a Hard Place" which includes Dommin's new single. That should tide you over until the full-length album is out.

I predict Dommin is going to make it bigger than they ever imagined. With the hauntingly deep melodic voice of Kristofer Dommin (the lead singer) who can make the pain of heartbreak feel like a numbing drug and the combination of heavy guitars and keyboards to induce you further into that spiral, Dommin's music can move and capture the attention of every person that has ever felt an emotion that wanted to break free out of its mold.

Check out the full-length video of My Heart, Your Hands on the band's YouTube channel. You may also be able to check out the band on the Warped Tour (with Lacuna Coil, Kill Hannah, and Seventh Void) in a city near you. Just visit Dommin's Official Myspace Page for their schedule.

Is Megan Fox really the next Lara Croft?

I can't find confirmation of the news anywhere but the rumor mill has it that Megan Fox is slated to play Lara Croft in the next Tomb Raider movie. Does anyone know for sure?

reports that the Top Ten choices for the role of Lara Croft are:

Jessica StroupJessica Stroup of 90210 (TV).
Megan FoxMegan Fox (best known for her role in the TransformersTransformers movies)
Jessica SzohrJessica Szohr from Gossip Girl (TV)Gossip Girl
Erica DuranceErica Durance of Smallville (TV)Smallville
Alison CarrollAlison Carroll a professional model
Rhona MitraRhona Mitrawho recently starred in Underworld: Rise of the LycansUnderworld Rise of the Lycans
Charlize TheronCharlize Theron who's got some action experience in her acting resume
Olivia WildeOlivia Wilde of House, M.D.(TV)House MD.
Eliza DushkuEliza Dushkuof Dollhouse (TV)Eliza Dushku
Ashley GreeneAshley Greene best known as Alice Cullen in the Twilight movie

Considering the fact that the third Tomb Raider movie is going to be what they call "an origins reboot," taking place before Lara Croft's races against villains and time in a quest to recover ancient artifacts began in the first two movies, I think some of these popular choices are a little too old for the role. What do you think?
