Fun Stuff > BAND
2 songs you think everyone should hear:
Merkava:
Yeah, I would have been happy with an explanation as well. I'm kinda used to people being smacked down by some force after posting the equivilant of "your taste sux lol"
Robbo:
*Shrug* doesn't mean we view Eels as a good example of anything like that.
Merkava, if Khar doesn't like something, it's not gonna be just because he "likes Metal" as you he likes more that just that. Will be something to do with the fact it doesn't fit his idea of good music.
Man that cookie monster comment has gotten old real fast though. People use alternate vox for a reason, because they suit the music and they're part of it. Just like Opera.

--- Quote from: Merkava ---The Metal Gods and I are on fine terms. I love Iron Maiden/Judas Priest/Dream Theatre.

no they still don't like you since Manowar wasn't in that list.
METAL POSERRRRRRRRRRR
KharBevNor:
Damn, I knew I should have qualified that. But I was just heading out to the pub.
It didn't make me go all 'AAAGGHRRR I MUST TURN MY SPEAKERS OFF AND LISTEN TO SARCOFAGO AND MAYHEM BOOTLEGS AT THE SAME TIME TILL MY EARS BLEEEEED' or anything like that, it's just it's....well...why on earth would it be a song anyone would need to hear? I mean, it was pretty boring. I mean, it was kinda like Simon and Garfunkel, except if they were on Ketamine. That's my opinion of it anyway. It's ok...it's just not revolutionary or even really interesting. I mean, there's tracks that have just hit me in the face, like the first time I listened to 'Strange Volk' by Ewigkeit, or 'Born to the Fight' by Waylander, or the first time I properly listened to a Burzum song, stuff like that. Compared to which that was a vert light biff on the nose. With a feather. That's why I made the comment about musical taste: because that would qualify as a 'MUST LISTEN' track. Surely a 'MUST LISTEN' would be something insanely revolutionary, or astonishingly profound, or mind-blowingly virtuous, or something?
blindsuperhero:
I chose it as a must-listen song because it's the most positive-outlook triumph-through-adversity song I know, sure, your sister may have killed herself and your mum's just died of cancer, but, you know, maybe it's time to live. I personally think it *is* astonishingly profound, the way the music and the lyrics just perfectly capture what is (as I've just demonstrated) quite a hard-to-describe emotion. It's positive without ignoring the bad stuff, happy without being joyous, just, amazing, really.
