    Biography

    Although Twilight has so far released three albums and have not performed in public, they have been described as a "supergroup" of sorts on the American black metal underground. The band members have, namely, gained their recognition with such outfits as Draugar, Krieg, Leviathan, Nachtmystium and Xasthur. The first album was "recorded on four-track cassettes sent back and forth through the mail by the five members" and "captures the myriad sonic idiosyncrasies of the individual players, from Xasthur’s charred synth ambience and Leviathan’s expert d-drum patterns to Draugar’s cavernous vocals and Nachtmystium’s ruthless guitar torture".Metal Hammer journalist Gunnar Sauermann listed Twilight as an essential US black metal album.

    Boy (album)

    Boy is the debut album by Irish rock band U2. It was produced by Steve Lillywhite, and was released on 20 October 1980 on Island Records. Thematically, the album captures the thoughts and frustrations of adolescence. It contains many songs from the band's 40-song catalogue at the time, including two tracks that were re-recorded from their original versions on the band's debut release, the EP Three. Boy was recorded from March–September 1980 at Windmill Lane Studios in Dublin; it was their first time at the studio, which became their chosen recording location during the 1980s. It was also their first time working with Lillywhite, who subsequently became a frequent producer for the band's recorded work.

    Boy included U2's first hit single, "I Will Follow". The album's release was followed by the group's first tour of continental Europe and the United States, the Boy Tour. The album received generally positive reviews from critics. It peaked at number 52 in the UK and number 63 in the US. In 2008, a remastered edition of Boy was released.

    Doolittle (BART station)

    The Doolittle Station is a car barn and proposed Bay Area Rapid Transit station that is part of the Coliseum–Oakland International Airport line line.

    Overview

    The station area was proposed the vicinity of the intersection at Hegenberger Road and Doolittle Drive. A former union house was demolished in order to clear room for the barn.

    The BART to Oakland International Airport automated guideway transit (people mover) system opened in November 2014. However Doolittle Station with passenger traffic did not open with it as there was no funding available for completion. It is in that sense a ghost station whose basic infrastructure will be set up but which will not be completely built and could potentially become an infill station at a future time. The City of Oakland suggested this station as a site that would support the city's efforts to revitalize the Hegenberger Road Corridor.
