Darth Avlectus Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Anybody remember the good old 8-bit days? Anybody also remember Iron Maiden Run to the hills? What if somebody really talented found a way to utilize NES sound instruments? What's that you say it can't be done? I beg to differ, and so does "Uner".

edlib Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I've been pretty much been listening exclusively to "The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway" by Genesis from beginning to end, these days. I'm a bit obsessed with this album at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabish Bini Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Seeing Angels by The John Butler Trio Easily the single best acoustic song ever made, with one of the most awesome choruses ever. Genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoffe Posted May 16, 2009 Author Share Posted May 16, 2009 Been a dull rainy day so I dusted off my Pink Floyd PULSE concert DVD. It may have been 15 years ago by now but it's still one of the greatest concerts I've seen. A few highlights: (This BBCode requires its accompanying plugin to work properly.)

Serpentine Cougar Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I've been listening to Blink 182, +44, and Angels and Airwaves recently. It's interesting to see how their sound changed over the years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negative Sun Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Black Sabbath As long as it's the Dio/Iommi/Butler line-up then it's ok Oh, speaking of which, check out Heaven & Hell's "The Devil You Know", seriously one of the best classic metal albums to ever grace your ears in recent years!!! Dio pwns Ozzy anytime, anywhere The new Placebo single "Battle for the Sun" is excellent too btw! Oh and I was quite surprised by the new Green Day album, "21st Century Breakdown" too, thought they were quite overrated for a while but it really is just great music, a bit Ramones-meets-Clash-meets-U2-political-undertone, but awesome nonetheless!

Really? I found it bland and uninspired, and highly boring, nothing like the Heaven and Hell album. Am currently listening to Agalloch - Not Unlike The Waves.

Commander Obi-Wan Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Currently, all I have been listening to is Hollywood Undead. They're a rap-rock band. They're coming to my hometown later this month. Already have the tickets. The unreleased single, "Bitches", is probably my favourite song by them. "Undead" and "No.5" are pretty good as well.

Fuu Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 myhouse-yourhouse.net Dance / House music with live DJ sets. I listen fairly often mainly because I am an electronic music freak. House is pretty high up there on my list of Faves. What I like about this site is the variety of House sets in different styles.. Plus my buddy does a radio show on Thursdays at 8pm PST.

ironheart Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 She's so high by Tal Bachman. The music itself is kinda, light hearted i guess you'd say. Great guitar bits in my opinion. But I love the lyrics. Reminds me of this girl I know back home. *sigh* http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVKcfwJxa54 That and I've really gotten into Disturbed lately. I'm not usually one for the screaming/metal stuff but they've got some really neat lyrics and the music itself is just really cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curretnly listening to Alexisonfire - To A Friend. My fav Alexisonfire song, god I love Dallas' voice. Ironheart, there's a band that really screams, particularly on their first album.

Negative Sun Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Really? I found it bland and uninspired, and highly boring, nothing like the Heaven and Hell album. Of course not, nothing Ozzy or anyone else evr did after the "Heaven and Hell" album came close t it either, but it's a great effort considering their age and history, and it's definitely not uninspired, by far one of the best albums this year so far... Speaking of... anyone heard Placebo "Battle for the Sun" yet? Best album so far this year for me, Brian Molko really pulled out all the stops this time, I was underwhelmed with the last album but this one blew me away, class act, hope I can catch them live in December here...

edlib Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 They Might Be Giants. Live. They are playing where I work today. They've done one show today already... they will be doing another shortly.

Jae Onasi Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Trust me when I say this, Disturbed's not screaming. I got to see the Music as A Weapon IV concert in Chicago a few weeks back (I went because Lacuna Coil was one of the bands playing). Trust me, Disturbed, which was one of the four bands that played, did a lot of screaming. Lacuna Coil sang Spellbound at the concert (This BBCode requires its accompanying plugin to work properly.) acdcfanbill and I were talking about music a few months back, and we got started talking about bands like Lacuna Coil and Within Temptation. He linked me to some symphonic metal, including Epica's "Phantom Agony". I love all the strings along with the rock instruments. (This BBCode requires its accompanying plugin to work properly.) I found a link to Kamelot's "Ghost Opera" on the Phantom Agony youtube page. I love the interesting lyrics, the mix of rock and some strings, and music references. Since Khan studied opera for several years, the references don't come as a surprise. (This BBCode requires its accompanying plugin to work properly.)

Darth Avlectus Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Not my particular genre at all, but, today some clients wanted this as wedding processional music--and as the DJ I was happy to give it to them. I was impressed. Very well done. Certainly, a better voice than my mid-lo tone will ever be able to do. Good Ukalale player too.

Trust me, Disturbed, which was one of the four bands that played, did a lot of screaming. Lucky you. The MaAW IV tour didn't even come up to Canada. I wanted to see Killswitch Engage and Disturbed. I saw Disturbed last December. I, honestly, wouldn't say they screamed a lot. All live metal concerts seems like they're screaming. Draiman does scream a far bit though. I would classify Killswitch Engage as more of a screamer band though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me, Disturbed, which was one of the four bands that played, did a lot of screaming. No, I'm not trusting you, because I know Disturbed aren't screamo. They do scream in the sense of general yelling high pitched style, but it's not a true scream in music. Listen to an Alexisonfire song, particularly from their self-titled debut album, then tell me Disturbed scream. (Although, new Alexis are better as Dallas sings a truckload more) ZZ Top - Legs Just a great classic song, which everyone knows and loves.
