| | Valhalla $12.74 It is rare indeed that a re-formed band should be acclaimed as cutting its best-ever album, especially when that band is one as storied and steeped in legend as Stray. Seemingly eternal denizens of the British hard rock circuit during the early- to mid-'70s, and one of those bands whom everyone at one point tipped for the top but who somehow contrived to never quite reach it, Stray were, quite simply, so ubiquitous that, even when they split up, it felt as though they were still out there someplace. And when they returned, it was as if they had never been away. That is certainly the case with Valhalla, a dozen-song set that showcases everything that was immortal about this band in the first place: the harmonies that soared out of somewhere so left-field that they amazed as much on the umpteenth play as they did on the first; the bludgeoning riffs and the soar-away melodies; the knowledge that, if Stray had only enjoyed the right breaks.... Valhalla is a fantasy fulfilled, a confirmation of all that we once held dear, and a compulsive reminder of all that we still ought to. "Move a Mountain," "Harry Farr," "Ghostwriter" -- every song here is a Stray classic in the making, and so one more voice adds itself to the chorus. If this isn't Stray's best album ever -- well, it's certainly as good as whatever else was. ~ Dave Thompson, Rovi |

Indoor Rock Climbing Harness
What are the BEST shoes for advanced beginner rock climbing?
I have climbed in my past, like at summer camp and birthday parties, but this summer I really began climbing more. I go to a indoor climbing gym a couple times a week, and want to join a team, so I want to invest in a good pair of shoes and a harness.
I'm 15 and have fairly narrow feet, so what are some good brands? Are laced up better than velcro? What other gear should I consider buying? Any other tips would be awesome!
Thanks in advance!
The best shoes to get are shoes that fit your feet along with the type of climbing you plan on doing. Different brands and models will fit different people. La Sportiva are known to be more narrow while 5.10 are wider. Since you are still a "beginner" I would stear away from the overly agressive shoes with a down turned toe. You dont need them yet and they wont help you develop good climbing technique on less steep routes you will be climbing at your current skill level. I would suggest an entry level shoe. Make sure you try them on and get a feel for them. Also, make sure you have an experienced climber help you with your choice. They will be able to help you choose the size based on the construction of the shoe. Some shoes will stretch as much as a 1/2 size over a very short time, while others wont stretch much at all. So you will want to keep that in mind as you are trying them on. Laced shoes offer the ability to "customize" the fit but adjusting the laces at the toes, half way up, and at the top while slippers provide an easy on/off. Velcro is the best of both words. You cant get them on as quickly as slippers. And you cant customize the fit as well as laced. Keep this in mind while you are making your purchase.
Other gear:
To save yourself money over time, get yourself a harness (again, fit is everything so try them on and actually hang from a rope in them before deciding), chalk/chalkbag, and if your local gym charges you to rent belay devices, invest in an ATC & large locking carabiner. That is all you really need to get started climbing indoors.
In the end, proper fit is priority 1!
-Good luck
