Finntroll - En M?ktig H?r

Bonkers in that great Finntroll way. Steelpan, flute and a trollish metalattack you say? I was just thinking the same thing!

Simon Rattle and City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra: Igor Stravinsky - The Firebird

Trying to spread out and I picked this up at the library. Nice ominous start.

Russian Circles - Death Rides A Horse

First listen. I think I'm in love.

The Sunshine Underground - Raise The Alarm

Awesome recent British band, highly recommended. The sheer energy on this album is genius.

Elend - A World Within Their Screams

It's a motherfucker of an album and undeniably good but I can think of few things that are as pretentious as french spoken word.
He even says "mort" a couple of times as well as "esclave". The whole storyline(if there is one) is completely lost and so the spoken word is unnecessary to a non-french speaker like me anyway.

Such Great Heights - The Postal Service.

I just found a Ben Folds cover of this song on youtube, so I had the listen to the original after hearing that. I know this isn't the absolute most covered song, but I'm beginning to think it's at least one of the most covered.

Misunderstood (Live) - Wilco

Kicking Television may be my favourite live album.

My Dying Bride - Seer Me '93

I think this version is amazing when I have time to kill I ike to sit down and play along to this on the Piano.

Aaron's vocals are really good here too:

"We Dance and the Music Dies"

Gives me shivers...

Perfect lead in to the rest of Turn Loose the Swans.

amok · « **Reply #3119 on:** 28 Apr 2007, 23:28 »

Damn right, that song is epic in its own way. Absolute beauty in simplicity.

If These Trees Could Talk - Malabar Front

A lot of post-rock type bands, I can take or leave depending on mood, but this is one CD (and this song in particular) which I can put on anytime and always grabs me.

Scytale · « **Reply #3120 on:** 28 Apr 2007, 23:35 »

Yeah it's amazing how well it worked, I was reading an interview somewhere and they talked about that track, apparently they were having a rehersal and someone started banging out the chords to Seer Me on a piano as kind of a joke and the rest of the band went, holy shit thats amazing and the song grew from there.

My Dying Bride - The Snow in My Hand

This is My Favorite MDB song, incredible.

amok · « **Reply #3121 on:** 29 Apr 2007, 11:28 »

Turisas - Cursed Be Iron

The new CD just found its way onto the internet and damn is it sounding promising so far. About 1/3 of the way through and it's a lot heavier than Battle Metal, with a great mix of vocals styles - the heavier parts of this song are sick. Any metal fan, however casual, should give this a go.

Near Lurker · « **Reply #3122 on:** 29 Apr 2007, 11:58 »

Heroes.

Way before my time (like a lot of my stuff), but still, ever since I heard it, I can't help but think of it every time I hear anything remotely reminiscent of the phrase "we could be heroes." At least this time it's a good song - I can't bear to hear the word "beautiful" anymore.

Also, greatest conservative rock songs? "Won't Get Fooled Again" makes sense, as much as The Who would like to deny it, since it's basically a rock version of Reflections on the French Revolution (great, now I can't help but wonder what a rock song so entitled would sound like). So does anything by Rush or Lynyrd Skynyrd, and maybe even "Taxman," but Heroes? Really?

PIG - 1979

I don't particularly like Smashing Pumpkins, but this cover of 1979 is absolutely awesome. Everything Raymond Watts touches turns to pure gold.

Pain of Salvation - Diffidentia (Breaching the Core)

I'm enjoying it, though it's hardly the first time I've ever heard the song. Be is by far my favorite POS album, as it represents an extreme departure from their previous sound, one that sets them apart from any other band I've ever heard. It's actually the album that sold me on the band. As soon as I heard the opening strains of Imago, there was no hope left for me.

Oh shi-- I would really like to hear that. Hit me up on PM and I will give you my email.

"Nightfall On Marsco/ 's Tu Mo Leannan" - Runrig (1988 "Once In A Lifetime" tour)

Gotta love that main riff that has a measure of 7/4 and two bars of 4/4.

The Go-Betweens: 16 Lovers Lane.

They just had a Go-Betweens tribute concert on the T.V., and it got me thinking about how when I die one of my greatest regrets will be not going and seeing Robert Forster and Grant McLennan perform live when I had the chance. I could have gone, easily, but I just couldn't be bothered. I still can't believe Grant McLennan's dead. 48! He should've had at least another twenty years in him. Life just isn't fair sometimes.

Anyway, this is a beautiful album. Go listen to it.

Nine Inch Nails - With Teeth

It's a solid album, but there's nothing really outstanding about it, IMHO. It's not something I'm really adverse to, but at the same time it doesn't leap out at me.

It makes me really sad that i never got the chance to see this band live, the whole of To The Bone is an amzing performance and this song in particular is my favourite Kinks recording.

They hit it big for a bit, then kinda disappeared again. I, however, still listen because I think they're really good.

I didn't like it when it first came out but listening to it now I don't think "The System Has Failed" is that bad of an album.

I actually prefer this album to the first one. I like the different influences coming through and they never fail to impress me live.

Masamichi Amano - The War of Girls, Without Faith nor Law

It's from the Battle Royale OST. Brings great atmosphere to most action and rts games. I prefer this soundtrack with Hearts of Iron 2 which is by the way one of the greatest strategy games I have played.

The Angelic Process - Million Year Summer

Devastating. Utterly devastating.

Due to a massive hold up at Decaying Sun I am probably gonna receive Coma Waering and Weighing Souls With Sand at roughly the same time.
Drone metal overload!

Marty Friedman - Black Orchid

Scytale, I was the same way with System has Failed, it took a couple more listens...

I saw them in concert during the SHF release... and I still wear my Rust in Peace shirt screaming:

Bring back Friedman!
