Forced Listening Thread V: Planet of the Bikini Vampire Babes
Buttfranklin:
I liked it, thanks. The (synthesized, I assume) folk instruments blend well with the music, and I liked how they used different ones throughout the song, rather than say, having a violin playing over and over like some bands do. The keyboards remind me of power metal at times, but they're used pretty well here, complementing the metal guitar riffs rather than drowning them. The singer's voice reminded me of the singer from Inkubus Sukkubus, when she was singing. Her scream was ok, I suppose, she's not Angela Glassow.
7/10
next song: Ocean Land by Orphaned Land

I don't know enough about metal genres to say anything intelligent about that, but I will say that even with my extremely minimal amount of familiarity with metal this song didn't feel new at all. That said, it was alright. I liked the Eastern sound it had. Basically, it was pleasant. 6/10 (I feel like most people forget about proportions when it comes to rating things. To me, 5 is middle-of-the-road; 6, slightly better.)
I more-than-half expect this to get panned, but here's "Rainbowarriors" by CocoRosie.

Points for sounding like nothing else. Negative points for sucking. It started ok but after the first verse it just went down.
Uh. Failure - "Empty Friend"

Not to be a math nerd or anything, but raising a negative number to any power divisible by two results in a positive number.
That means, of course, that you really liked that Dismemberment Plan song...

:( Forgot about that! I will revise my post, then.
Anyway, the failure song. I did not mind it, in fact I quite enjoyed it. It reminds me (vaguely) of a Jesu song, or like the new Pelican album but a lot better. Like the guitar work and the vocals, and everything else is pretty solid. The more I listen to this the more I like it, I'll definitely check them out. 9/10
Mine is an oldey but a goody.
METALLICA- HELPLESS.
I really like this song, and while Metallica are pretty much hated by everyone on this board, no one can deny that everything pre-Black was pretty solid. (I personally like everything except Black and St.Anger, but that's just me I guess). Lots of riffs and energy, and the rawness of the production gives the whole thing a great feel. Maybe not one of the best covers ever, but still really enjoyable.
