Music and the Chamber Orchestra of Secrets
June 9, 2009 at 12:01 pm Fortune Cell 209 comments
Deep blow the stone floors of the Music Conservatory of Waltz and Warbling, something older than memory stirred. A scattering of dried bones cracked and crumbled to dust as they cascaded to the floor, as something shifted beneath the huge mound on which they were piled. And, so faint that no one outside the dusty cellar could perceive it, there came a sound. It was something like the light, tuneless twang of an aged violin.

Oh right, there is a new thread. Completely forgot. XD
I have just found out how much I love Disillusion’s Reel. ^_^

going to see OAR (some band. i guess they started up at OSU, which is pretty cool (that’s where i’m going)). anyway, andy won free tickets, so we’re going
hopefully it won’t be raining…i like the outside of the LC better than the inside

Beavo | June 12, 2009 at 1:56 pm
Beavo is now into: Industrial.
Examples That Are Good: Masochist and Her(t)z Frequenz by Die Form, 100% and A La Mode, A La Mort and Nurse Grenede by Angelspit, Marilyn Manson of course but everybody knows him, and my current favorite song is The Judged Ones by Grendel.
I get most of my new bands off of Real Synthetic Audio.

3. Check out some of Death SS’s later albums, like 7th Seal and Humanomalies.

ebeth | June 15, 2009 at 6:19 am
OAR was meh. the wailers were sweet though.
I’m not a huge fan of industrial. some of it’s great, it just isn’t something i would enjoy listening to a lot
It seems to be reggae week or something in columbus. not really sure what is with all the concerts with marleys or marley-friends
in other concert news, i’m missing the offspring w/dropkick murphys, which i am PISSED about but canada should be fun too i guess. i am for sure going to CD101 summerfest in august with matt & kim and a bunch of other bands they haven’t announced yet, the whores, and then kings of leon in september.
columbus needs some metal. all the metal shows are in cincy

3- Holycrap I didn’t think anyone knew of Angelspit <3
Mel's been listening to Enya while playing Twilight Princess. Yup…

Beavo | June 22, 2009 at 6:36 pm
I didn’t think there was a place where nobody knew of Angelspit. They’re pretty big here.

Listening to a new Spinal Tap album, with songs from the movie and new material. Fucking awesome. Seriously. Also, I landed a gig as a reviewer for http://www.metalreviews.com.

dark dude of darkness | June 15, 2009 at 2:13 pm
nice! are they paying you?

FrigidSymphony | June 15, 2009 at 2:57 pm
Nah, the job is the reward in itself. I can actually contribute to a community I’m part of.

ebeth | June 15, 2009 at 3:13 pm
dude that’s sweet link us from time to time when you write a good one. and by good i mean scathing, because those are always the funniest
12.
FrigidSymphony | June 20, 2009 at 2:41 pm
The Harry Potter reference makes me sick.
Anyway, check out Jack Savoretti. Great acoustic singer-songwriting, nice folk. Youtube the song “Dr. Frankenstein”.

Bird of Purple | June 22, 2009 at 2:55 pm
I need some classical recommendations. And accessible metal recommendations for people not yet into metal… and music recommendations in general.
I’ve realized that I adore accordions when played in a non-cheesy fasion.
What to people think of Arcade Fire?
14.
dark dude of darkness | June 22, 2009 at 3:02 pm
I like them a lot, rather, i like the one album i have a lot: Funeral, which seems to be poular amoung hipster elitist types.
15.
FrigidSymphony | June 22, 2009 at 4:43 pm
Classical? Try Saint-Saens “Dans Macabre”, Richard Strauss’ “Alpine Symphony”, etc.
As for accessible metal… Try the new Skyclad. Or Steel Panther. Steel Panther might be fun.
16.
Piggy | June 22, 2009 at 8:04 pm
Classical? Holst’s “The Planets” is a good suite–especially “Mars, the Bringer of War”.
17.
penguini | June 23, 2009 at 1:19 pm
Isao Tomito made some truly epic electronic versions of the originals. They are on par with the original.
18.
Mel | June 22, 2009 at 8:09 pm
Classical = Chopin and Stravinzky. I’m going to marry both of them.
Metal Gateway Drug = Nightwish.
But old Nighwish. I have to pretend that Anette Nightwish is a different, inferior band.
19.
Pan | June 23, 2009 at 7:54 am
I love Chopin. He’s the bestest.
I also like Handel’s Water Music Suite, and Mozart’s Flute Quartet in D.
Also, Paul Winter is nice if you’re looking for something really easy to listen to. He has an album called “Wintersong” which is really pretty, especially “Beautiful Star.”
20.
FrigidSymphony | June 23, 2009 at 1:32 am
17: Wtf. Dark Passion Play is the best Nightwish have ever done. And at least Anette sings in a style she can shine in. Tarja sounded like she took 2 months of classical training and then quit. “I can imitate an opera singer!” But you can’t sing like one. If I wanna hear opera, I’ll listen to it.
21.
Beavo | June 23, 2009 at 1:18 pm
Classical: Brahms. Also Beethoven’s “Rage Over A Lost Penny” is sort of hilarious.
Opera is pretty good too, sometimes, when it’s not Wanger.
I listened to classical and only classical for the first twelve years of my life. I’m a tiny bit bored with it.
22.
ebeth | June 24, 2009 at 7:46 pm
I really hope that wasn’t a typo, because it made me LOL. literally.
23.
glasseh (DEATH) | June 23, 2009 at 2:31 pm
Metal gateway = prog. Ayreon, Dream Theater, Avantasia (although that’s prog/power.) Power and folk metal are also good — Masterplan, Edguy, Elvenking (listenlistenlisten, and don’t be put off by just one song — every album is different. Very different. But they’re all amazing.), Helloween, Gamma Ray, Sonata Arctica. Definitely Sonata Arctica. Also try Iron Maiden.
re: Tarja/Anette — I’m on the fence. I just generally don’t try to compare the two — the two eras are very different, and I like both. They’re just not comparable.
24.
tetracontakaidigon | June 24, 2009 at 5:24 pm
if you’re using Elvenking as a gateway, not The Scythe. start with The Winter Wake perhaps?
(and echoing definitely Sonata.)
25.
FrigidSymphony | June 23, 2009 at 4:34 pm
22: For me there’s absolutely no contest. Holopainen’s songwriting shines so much more whe Tarja isn’t hogging the emphasis spotlight. Whatever.
I’ve posted looong lists of good metal gateways before, browse through past threads or something… Anyway, usually power metal hooks people pretty well. Hammerfall, Stratovarius, Angra, Blind Guardian, Kamelot, Iced Earth, the ones glasseh mentioned… Plus some more “obscure” bands:
Stormwarrior
Pyramaze
Lost Horizon
Cage
Cryonic Temple
Demon’s & Wizards
Domine
Dragonland
Heavenly
Iron Fire
Manticora
Sabaton
Winter’s Bane
In fact, just go to http://www.metalreviews.com and browse through the highest scored albums with the “search” option.
26.
glasseh (DEATH) | June 23, 2009 at 4:44 pm
Hm. I’ll have to check most of those bands. XD
Ahh, how did I forget Hammerfall, Blind Guardian, and Kamelot? Iced Earth is a bit heavy for a gateway band, I think.
27.
FrigidSymphony | June 23, 2009 at 5:42 pm
Oops, typo. It’s “Demons & Wizards”. No apostrophe.
28.
Jadestone | June 23, 2009 at 7:05 pm
It was them that came out with that one cd based off the Stephan King novel, right? I meant to buy it but I couldn’t ever find it on iTunes again and I’m too lazy to download.
Oh, and as for Nightwish–I prefer Anette. I just like her voice better. Tarja always sounded… I don’t know, fake, with too much unnecessary vibrato to me. The way she slid up to every single note. Eh.
29.
FrigidSymphony | June 24, 2009 at 1:07 am
I dunno which one you mean, but you can download both of them here. Friend of mine uploads albums: http://nebulah.wordpress.com/category/demons-wizards/
30.
Jadestone | June 24, 2009 at 5:23 am
27- Ah, yes, Touched by the Crimson King. They must have taken it off iTunes. *annoyed*
BUt thanks, will download.
31.
Bird of Purple | June 24, 2009 at 8:07 pm
Aha, wonderful. I’ll have so much amazing music to check out and listen to over the summer! Actually, that was my problem over the past week… somebody gave me Arcade Fire and The Decemberists and some other stuff and so then I was like, “screw the regents, it’s time to listen to music”. And that will be my excuse when I discover my Math B grade. But I’ve heard very little of any of the metal, so this should be fabulous.
I love Chopin too , which could potentially be a problem if Pan loves him and Mel is going to marry him. Also, Saint-Saens, yesss.
I need to investigate more of Stravinzky, Paul Winter, Brahms and Holst.
32.
glasseh (DEATH) | June 25, 2009 at 8:37 am
Ahhhh, shit. Van Canto, too. (Nearly) a cappella metal — they would be without drums -_-. But they are reallyreallyreally good.
33.
FrigidSymphony | June 25, 2009 at 9:49 am
A list of some of the alt. metal I’ve been listening to lately:
Blur
Manic Street Preachers
Teenage Fanclub
Oasis
Suede
The Stone Roses
The Killers
Placebo
Pulp
Ash
XTC
34.
Jadestone | June 25, 2009 at 10:25 am
You put Oasis as alternative metal?
Although admittedly I haven’t listened to all their albums/songs.
35.
FrigidSymphony | June 25, 2009 at 11:37 am
Sorry, should’ve been metal/rock. None of those bands, except maybe Placebo, would ever be considered metal by mainstream retailers, although I have a wider definition of what metal is. Anyway, all very good bands.
36.
tetracontakaidigon | June 25, 2009 at 3:31 pm
Placebo is *amazing* but, last I checked, not really near metal.
apparently Battle for the Sun is out now? which I did not know until I checked, and I should get it sometime. if you’ve been listening recently, is this included, and how is it?
37.
FrigidSymphony | June 26, 2009 at 1:48 am
Battle for the Sun is a cute record, but I’m still absorbing Without You I’m Nothing and Meds.
38.
FrigidSymphony | June 26, 2009 at 6:37 am
Bill Bailey summarizes emo music for us:
39.
dark dude of darkness | June 26, 2009 at 9:30 am
bill bailey of black books fame? man, i had no idea he did other stuff. *absorbs*
40.
ebeth | July 3, 2009 at 8:49 am
Still obsessing over Voltaire. also been listening to lots of Bach and Iron Maiden. It’s been mostly safe background music lately, i haven’t been exploring much new stuff. If anyone has suggestions, i’d like some more classical voice, ska, or good (GOOD) rap or techno (both can be a little hard to find
)
PS fridge nice list
i don’t know if i’d call much of it metal, but i guess altrock and altmetal are fairly overlapping terms. whatever you call them, they’re good bands 
re: the nightwish debate- i prefer tarja. yes, she’s overly dramatic and a little ridiculous but she is still a much better singer than annette (despite the fact that she’s kind of a bitch and her solo stuff kind of sucks). However if you’re looking at the band overall, i think Dark Passion Play is up there with their older stuff. Nightwish with Tarja seemed to have fallen off a bit towards the end.
41.
FrigidSymphony | July 3, 2009 at 9:11 am
She’s not a “much better singer” than Annette. The style is different.
42.
FrigidSymphony | July 3, 2009 at 9:12 am
Oh, for good techno: Check out Venetian Snares.
43.
dark dude of darkness | July 3, 2009 at 2:42 pm
lol@venetian snares being classified as techno. But yeah, he is really good (although quite abrasive, especially for someone not into that sort of music.) Techno is pretty much bad, but techno != electronic music!!!
GOOD rap: DOOM, gift of gab, madlib, el-p, cannibal ox, pretty much anything on def-jux, A tribe called quest. . .I could go on.
44.
dark dude of darkness | July 3, 2009 at 2:46 pm
sorry for double post, but i forgot about saul williams. can’t leave saul williams out of any list, even one that short.
45.
ebeth | July 4, 2009 at 5:03 am
41-mm, yeah, i’d have to say she is. Annette has a different style, true, and a less annoying and probably better style at that, but when you come down to it her voice just isn’t that great.
also thanks for the recs everyone, will check them all out. i’ve heard some mighty mighty bosstones but not much. reel big fish i’m all over already
46.
Mel | July 3, 2009 at 1:50 pm
Ebeth-The Mighty Mighty Bosstones are basically the only ska-ish band of which I am aware. Unless you count Reel Big Fish (I’m still convinced they’re a comedy act, albeit an awesome one–great live, too) and No Doubt.
Fridgey-Awesome Emo song xD
47.
tetracontakaidigon | July 3, 2009 at 2:31 pm
Ebeth- I started talking to this Six Flags employee about ska on the orchestra trip there (I feel that this makes the following recommendations that much more awesome) and he said Reel Big Fish and Streetlight Manifesto.
glasseh had Catch 22 on his drop.io a year or two ago?
48.
ebeth | July 4, 2009 at 5:05 am
Also yeah i just realized i posted a response to comments that were below where mine would be. *weirdness* so thanks all
49.
Beavo | August 8, 2009 at 3:43 pm
Sooo Beavo’s going to his first concert.
And it took a minimum of pleading. He’s pretty sure his parents are high.
Anyway, it’s Mayhem Festival, and although I don’t really like most of the bands, there’s a couple, (Marilyn Manson, Mushroomhead, Bullet for My Valentine) that are worth seeing. I don’t know much about Killswitch Engage, but they can’t be too bad, and I’ll just go merch shopping while Slayer’s playing so I don’t have to sit through that.
Excited! Yay!
50.
ebeth | August 8, 2009 at 4:05 pm
49-nice! sounds fun!
i don’t think i liked bullet for my valentine but i’m not sure i remember what they sound like so i could be confusing them with someone else? marilyn manson should be fun. never heard of mushroomhead or killswitch engage. slayer is boring.
anyhoo, congrats on losing your concert virginity! concerts are much win and pwnage
51.
FrigidSymphony | August 9, 2009 at 1:47 am
You’re skipping Slayer? Are you fucking insane? No matter what you think about Slayer’s music, they’re one of the best goddamm live shows out there. BFMV, KsE and MM are also great, very energetic. Mushroomhead are boring, go merch shopping during their set. If you go to a festival with Slayer playing and deliberately skip their set, you don’t deserve to live. Jesus, to even consider it! Kids these days…
52.
glasseh (DEATH) | August 9, 2009 at 7:07 am
Dude, go to Slayer and mosh. Even if you don’t like the music the mosh pits will be fun.
Progressive Nation was on Friday. The venue was seated.
It was worth going anyway, though. The first three bands (Scale the Summit, Bigelf, and Zappa Plays Zappa) weren’t amazing, although Bigelf was the best. Dream Theater was incredible — the atmosphere in the room suddenly jumped. The setlist was A Nightmare To Remember, A Rite of Passage, Scene Four: Beyond This Life, Erotomania, Voices, Solitary Shell, In the Name of God, and The Count of Tuscany was the encore. The only ones I didn’t know were Erotomania, Voices, and In the Name of God. I need to see them again in a general admission venue.
53.
glasseh (DEATH) | August 9, 2009 at 7:18 am
And what about the heavier stuff? That’s gotta be worth going to. You’re going to be there anyway, why not go to as many bands as you can? You paid the money for them. Who knows, maybe you’ll end up enjoying their live shows.
54.
FrigidSymphony | August 10, 2009 at 5:12 am
Zappa Plays Zappa is amazing, so I’ve heard. Probably need to be a Zappa fan to appreciate it fully.
55.
ebeth | August 10, 2009 at 8:32 am
solution: become a zappa fan!
i <3 him
56.
penguini | August 10, 2009 at 7:35 am
Scale the Summit was okay. Since all they do is instrumentals I think they would be better as between playlist songs on an ipod or something. The feeling in the room was of thumb twiddling, they/we were waiting for something better.
Bigelf was really good. They had a good stage presence. There were actually people in the venue for this band and the general feeling was hmm, pretty good. Would see again…
Zappa plays Zappa failed. Some of the first music I ever heard was Frank Zappa because my father would play music when he was making dinner. I regrettably didn’t recognize any of the songs. They didn’t have the vibe and the audience kind of sat there and waited. Dweezil has the Zappa charisma, he just wasn’t using it.:(
Dream Theater- “the atmosphere in the room suddenly jumped” exactly. They had the decency to play music I’d heard before
and were really really amazing.
Venue- seated. The lack of a mosh pit was depressing but we lived.(I just realized that I’ve never been to a show that allowed moshing and had enough people the get a good pit going. eek) A security guard accused me of being a fighter (me? fight? you must be out of your mind! I only wear these so people don’t hurt me!). Apparently I have awesome boots?
Beavo- Listen to FS and go see slayer. Oh, and bring earplugs otherwise your head will explode.
57.
ebeth | August 10, 2009 at 8:35 am
I totally read that as “awesome boobs”
and you are a fighter. i knew you were a troublemaker *glareglare* you AND your penguin pasta
58.
ebeth | August 10, 2009 at 8:35 am
Yeah i haven’t had much sleep. Smiling and nodding is probably in order here.
59.
Beavo | August 10, 2009 at 11:43 am
So. Wow. That was awesome.
Despite the fact that it was mostly nu metal and God Forbid went on and on and on and the guy couldn’t think of anything to get the crowd riled up about seeing a bad band except for “fuck youuuu!” “fuckin aaaa!” “you all are fuckin whores!”, my friends got a poster signed from As I Lay Dying, I think it was them anyways, Job for a Cowboy was great, we saw some of Whitechapel (meh), and there were a bunch of other bands that didn’t even play for some reason, like Cannibal Corpse (thank God) and Trivium (sadface).
Bullet played like four songs and then left. What. They were good songs (no Forever and Always! whywhywhy) but still. It was a really short playlist. Killswitch Engage was pretty good, I’ll have to look back into them. They knew how to rock the crowd. Unfortunately, the crowd didn’t really know how to rock. The mosh pits kind of looked like a crazy ring around the rosy.
So I stayed for Slayer. Yes I did. Um, it was…loud? You couldn’t really tell the difference between the guy
singingscreaming and the drums, and you couldn’t really hear either the guitar or base. Their performance was awesome, despite the fact that the music sucked. The crowd was wild at the first song and then kind of went to sleep for the next billion (it was too much, almost every song sounded exactly the same). I taped it on my phone anyways, without sound.Manson. Marilyn Manson is in my top five bands. He was fucking amazing. Even the songs he played that I didn’t like were amazing. And everything went into the crowd. The beer (beer?) he gurgled, the towel, the American flag and army helmet, the Bible he threw around, and his hat during The Dope Show. Nothing from the Golden Age of Grotesque, though, which made me sad.
Whoever set this thing up was an ass. It should have been Slayer first to start everyone off so they’d get all pumped (seriously, they were asleep by Slayer), then Killswitch, then Bullet, then Manson.
I got sunburn.
60.
FrigidSymphony | August 10, 2009 at 1:37 pm
Wait, wait, wait. So you were glad that Cannibal Corpse didn’t play, but disappointed that the wimpy turds of boredom that are Trivium didn’t play? Get your priorities straight. And you never start the show with the headliner, and Slayer are fucking huge. I’m not a fan (I own Reign In Blood because it’s a thrash metal classic that everyone should know, and that’s it) but historically and influence-wise Slayer were the biggest band in that festival.
But yeah, I’ve heard other shitty reports about the Mayhem festival. Most of them are “Wait, I thought it was Mayhem headlining! Ripoff!”
61.
Schrodinger | August 10, 2009 at 8:13 pm
Beavo Beavo Beavo,
Beavo Beavo Beavo Beavo Beavo,
oooooh Beavo, why would you even consider skipping Slayer? Even for a second? And then cheer for Trivium? I shall never understand you.
Regardless I am thoroughly jealous you saw Killswitch, All That Remains, Bullet, As I Lay Dying, and of course. SLAYER
WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOU. -_-
62.
Mel | August 11, 2009 at 8:28 am
o_O Mili?
63.
Beavo | August 11, 2009 at 10:06 am
Sorry, I don’t like Cannibal Corpse, and I’ve heard good things about Trivium, although I’ve never looked at their music.
I really, really, really don’t like Cannibal Corpse. Except for Kill, duh.
Could somebody please explain to me why Slayer is fucking huge and why I should care? I don’t like them, and when I don’t like something I don’t bother listening to their music. Right? Or is there something I’m missing? The performance wasn’t even that great. Maybe it was a bad day or something, but other than the fact that they’re really really big and everybody’s heard of them why I should listen to them.
64.
FrigidSymphony | August 11, 2009 at 3:38 pm
Historical and influential importance, more than anything. I guess you had to be around in the 80s when Angel of Death (still a fucking great song) was the heaviest thing around and it was a huge creative revolution. Fuck Metallica, Slayer were amazingly heavy for a thrash band. This was when Bon Jovi was topping charts.
65.
Schrodinger | August 11, 2009 at 12:17 pm
Mel, I was bored and had nothing better to do u.u
that about sums up that stupid rant or whatever it was
66.
Mel | August 12, 2009 at 9:13 am
Ah. I was mostly surprised that you were here.
I’m going to pretend that this is music-related and tell everyone to go listen to Amanda Palmer. Her solo stuff is way better than what she did with the Dresden Dolls. That was pretty awesome too. Find Leeds United or Guitar Hero to embrace the awesomeness. Watch the Oasis video for the full Amanda effect. Or the Backstabber video that’s on the DD official site. Not on YouTube. Though it’s NSFW. A lot.
67.
penguini | August 15, 2009 at 7:44 am
has anyone hear of lordi? They seem to be like gwar only more musical, which isn’t hard. They have some REALLY good stuff. Go listen to them.
68.
FrigidSymphony | August 15, 2009 at 9:28 am
Lordi sound nothing like Gwar. Don’t compare them just because they both wear costumes. Lordi play melodic hard rock, Gwar play comedic, vulgar stage metal combining thrash and hardcore.
69.
penguini | August 15, 2009 at 10:22 am
My apologies. I’ve only been listening to them for about a day and haven’t read up on them much yet.
70.
Mel | August 15, 2009 at 11:16 am
Hard Rock Hallelujah is the most hilariously awful awesome song evar. I only know about them from Eurovision….
71.
ebeth | August 15, 2009 at 8:35 am
uggh waiting ugghh
i just got my
newdad’s old hard drive. moving all my music to it. taking foreeever of course and i have a bunch more stuff i want to put on it after thatso today will be a music-y day. right now i’m listening to a guy who plays christmas carols on water glasses (i told you we have weird stuff in our basement)
72.
Jadestone | August 15, 2009 at 2:35 pm
I’ve been enjoying the delightful sounds of Neil Young. My favorites of his this week are Old Man, The Needle and the Damage Done, and Gold Rush.
73.
FrigidSymphony | August 15, 2009 at 2:46 pm
Southern Man, Cinnamon Girl and the overplayed yet still brilliant Keep On Rockin’ In The Free World are my favourite NY songs.
74.
Lizzie | August 15, 2009 at 8:59 pm
whoo, Mozart operas FTW!
75.
ebeth | August 16, 2009 at 2:31 am
73-i was totally obsessed the first time i heard keep on rockin in the free world
the version i have is him with pearl jam. i don’t think i’ve actually heard the original
datarock keeps fucking up and making me relaunch finder. i’ve given up
but that was the only issue which to me is incredible given my record with moving stuff around like that
so now i can download new musics! HURRAH! recommendations, anyone? (besides Young and Mozart
)
76.
FrigidSymphony | August 16, 2009 at 2:46 am
Get The Ugly Organist by Cursive. Amazing album, everyone should listen to it.
77.
FrigidSymphony | August 16, 2009 at 4:27 pm
Sorry, “The Ugly Organ”. Not Organist. Organ.
78.
Beavo | August 16, 2009 at 2:18 pm
And now that everybody had been talking about bands I don’t know, I’m going to have to do some research.
Also, Mozart operas aren’t that great. De Zauberflote (sorry, I can’t spell in German, it means the Magic Flute) is pretty good. Evil villainesses hitting fourth registers are pretty awesome.
79.
kinky | August 18, 2009 at 1:24 pm
So I guess I’m kind of late to the party, but you ska likers should listen to the Toasters. And the Slackers. And the English Beat. (Otherwise known as the Beat if you live in England.)
Neil Young is boss. I feel like you could listen to him for decades and still get something new out of it.
Anyone ever seen the Melvins live? I’m thinking of going. And I’m definitely seeing TMBG if I can find someone to go with.
80.
ebeth | August 18, 2009 at 3:38 pm
so i got the tryout music for symphonic band at OSU. there is some harrrrd stuff there. like, lip trills? for serious? i suck at those. and 32nd notes are a pain. >.<
so i don't know if i'll make it. i do have a month to practice though. anyway, if i don't make it this time they re-audition spring quarter, and then winter and spring every year afterwards so i'll have plenty of chances
in other, even sadder news, summerfest is sold out and i'm pissed. i am terrible at remembering to get tickets in advance, but this is the one concert that i never needed to do that for. but it is an awesome lineup unlike the last few years so i guess a lot of people wanted to go. amy and i are planning on sitting in a basement somewhere listening to matt&kim and crying because we're missing it

While we’re throwing recommendations around, you guys should all check out Wren/Cody Weber.

to download the album free: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=59DGQD2H
Decent ramblings too, but I haven’t watched too much of his stuff.
I don’t even know whether I’m doing music or not next year in school… they have a pretty good program, but it’s nothing compared to the orchestra I was in previously and there’s no room in my schedule for band. So I’ll probably just do percussion lessons and beg for a private composition/theory lesson. *sigh*
82.
Beavo | August 19, 2009 at 6:19 pm
I’m going to see a couple of my friends at marching and practice. Our county’s band program is pretty awesome, and our sports teams suck, so instead of a football game it’s like, a marching band thing, with a little bit of football that nobody’s watching. I kinda sorta miss band, but not really.
Listening to- Coheed & Cambria.
The music discussion on the MB is actually pretty good right now. Yay. I really need to search some more bands. How come the same indie bands get mentioned? It seems like there’s only, like, ten that everyone likes.

ebeth | August 19, 2009 at 9:07 pm
well there’s indie, and then there’s indie. like sometimes i’ll listen to local bands that nobody has ever heard of, and there are plenty of those. but i wouldn’t imagine that it’s terribly easy to become well-known as an indie band, so there may just be less of them that are nationally (or internationally, or even regionally) recognized
but i am by no means the expert, and actually have been known to run away in fear from really hardcore indie fans (they can be scary!!!)
85.
FrigidSymphony | August 20, 2009 at 4:25 pm
I listen to so many different genres that I can’t become “hardcore” in any of them, except metal, which is and will always remain THE most interesting genre ever. So I absorb the movers and shakers from all genres and absorb what’s good about it. So I understand indie.
86.
FrigidSymphony | August 21, 2009 at 3:09 am
I should be getting the new Sonata Arctica album tomorrow or the next day for promotional purposes (i.e. reviewing). Can’t wait.
87.
Potato Chip (Kelly) | August 21, 2009 at 8:00 am
You are SO lucky.
I’d love you forever if you’d send it, but you probably aren’t supposed to do that, so just know that I’m jealous.
88.
FrigidSymphony | August 21, 2009 at 4:00 pm
I’m listening to it right now. It’s faster and heavier than Unia was, but it still has that big chaotic sort of orchestra sound. Brilliant, as far as I’m concerned.
And yeah, I can’t send it to anyone. The files are watermarked and if they leaked I’d be in a shitload of trouble. Not that I don’t trust you, but still… Can’t afford to risk it.
89.
ebeth | August 22, 2009 at 11:33 am

that is way cool that you got it early though. have you written the review yet? i’d like to read it

under Death metal they have dethklok. \m/
99.
glasseh (DEATH) | September 5, 2009 at 8:25 pm
I have no idea why they used Dethklok as an example of death metal…I’m not saying that it isn’t, but it doesn’t seem the best choice.
re: flowchart – it was going to become my new desktop but then I realized how tall it was (unlike you Olivia
) so I didn’t. [/wonderful story]
100.
FrigidSymphony | September 6, 2009 at 3:53 am
Yeah, the Dethklok is lame. It’s not really death metal, more like melodeath. Should’ve put Morbid Angel or Obituary. Or Deicide.
101.
Ebeth | September 6, 2009 at 4:52 am
they prolly just used it because it’s what everybody knows. death metal doesn’t get many hugely recognizable names
102.
dark dude of darkness | September 7, 2009 at 8:54 pm
If you’re going to name one death metal band, Deicide is really the only one of those that comes close to deserving it, IMO. Death would be a good choice. Wait, I just read it and they put death–heh, in that case I would agree with deicide. Actually that was an oddly informed article, considering what things on the internet generally are.
Although, in what universe do doom metal lyrics not sound evil?
103.

1) I love How To Save A Life and You Found Me, hoping to enjoy more of their stuff
2) I’m taking my flirt/friend/whatever, and she adores them
3) Just finally a chance to do something different.
110.
Ebeth | September 23, 2009 at 7:30 pm
2 is legit. and then you can be like “so did you have fun at the concert?” and she’ll be like “yeah!” and you can be like “well how about this concert over here…” and take her to something epic
111.
FrigidSymphony | September 24, 2009 at 6:21 am
Don’t need to, she loves metal as well. Only problem is that we don’t get any decent metal gigs on weekends here. So yeah.

NO not the dead philosopher (that’s for you, grant)

You should bring one of the dead dude’s books and read it during the concert. Also: Star Trek shirts. Alsoalso, jealous.

but…theyre terrible. like, objectively.
Oh and Epica are great, probably my second favorite operatic metal band, after tristania.
116.
FrigidSymphony | September 24, 2009 at 6:20 am
They get no radio coverage where I live, so I’m not subjected to over-saturation. I’d probably hate them too if that was the case. As far as songwriting goes they’re actually really good, and the guy’s voice has a pleasant sleaze to it. Not the “best band EVAR” or anything, but still, enjoyable. Ticket’s only 55 francs, so no biggie.
117.
dark dude of darkness | October 25, 2009 at 2:31 pm
umm, wow. Maybe use pastebin next time? I put up a list I guess, but I also have pretty easy access to a couple hundred thousand albums, so if you want anything, chances are I can get it really easily. I also kind of disapprove of rapidshit.
Actually, fuck it. I need something to help me procrastinate. Arrgh, getting an album list is hard. Here’s an artist list I have at least one album by all of them, and more by most.
118.
FrigidSymphony | October 25, 2009 at 2:40 pm
Lot of cool stuff up there. For now, what Creedence do you have?
Anyway, I could also probably find whatever I wanted on torrentz.com or what.cd, but this is among friends, for fun, and it’s legal.

Alright, I’ll get to work uploading. I might not be able to get you some stuff because one of my harddrives is currently packed away, but what I can I’ll get you. To start you off:
http://www.mediafire.com/?4tygu0mmv3i
New Collective Soul. Confusingly enough it’s also entitled Collective Soul, just like an earlier album of theirs, but the band calls it “Rabbit”.
Enjoy!

129.
FrigidSymphony | October 27, 2009 at 12:07 am
Obviously it’s not as good as Iron or their s/t, but it’s a hell of a lot better than Victory Songs. Here’s a review of it, if you’re interested:
http://www.metalreviews.com/reviews/detail.php3?id=5596
The site scored it 2 points higher than the self-titled and 2 points lower than Iron.

Love Modest Mouse. I can sand everyone their entire disog (nearly, only a few really old songs I don’t have) whenever. WIll make a drop possibly if I have time.
Will make a lit once I’m on the comp where iTunes really is, this only has music from before 2008, when we got the new comp.
132.

went to a gogol bordello concert. fucking awesome. was in the mosh pit the whole time, somehow got there late and still managed to be front and center. thought i was going to be strangled in the first two songs (boo tall people and their elbows at neck level!)
in other, non-fucking-amazing-concert news, i LOVE ensiferum. and i really liked the ani difranco as well (but ensiferum gets looooove). have not listened to the gorgoroth or modest mouse yet (and actually i only listened to the first difranco album) so i will get on that
133.

134.
ebeth | October 30, 2009 at 11:35 pm
voltaire was fucking awesome as well. he is so adorable! we had a legitimate conversation with him afterwards it was great. also a group hug
my only regret is that he didn’t play goodnight demonslayer. but he played a dresden dolls parody that i’ve never heard that i think might be new…coin-operated goy, it was hilarious. and he did tell one cute story about his son (how his son wanted to go to mexico on november 2nd because it’s after day of the dead so there would be free toys lying around)
there were two openers. we got a pic with the first one, they were really good! they had a kickass bassist and it was an upright electric which just makes it so much better. i forget what they were called though. and then there was hellblinki who also backed up voltaire on a lot of his songs, they were fun. the girl is amazing, she has a great voice and plays accordion which is pretty badass. the guy is occasionally annoying, but generally funny (and then there’s the bassist who didn’t do much but was fairly good)

Question to anyone who wants to answer:
I’ve never moshed, and I don’t really plan to (I’m rather breaky), but what’s the point? Like, what do you get out of it?
194.
Ebeth | December 29, 2009 at 7:17 pm
eh, it’s probably got something to do with adrenaline and other such psychologically satisfying shit
bottom line, it’s just fun
195.
FrigidSymphony | December 31, 2009 at 3:18 am
Catharsis for aggression.

Beavo | January 2, 2010 at 12:34 am
Kay, whatever, thanks.
Those were the answers I was expecting. But I tend to assume stupid things, so I asked anyway.
I might end up going to a Korpiklaani concert. I haven’t even listened to a lot of their stuff but it sounds okay, I guess. A friend is trying to get a bunch of people together to go, and why not? I saw a video from them and it was a bunch of guys in stupid clothes tearing apart chicken with their teeth and fighting, so I don’t think they’re really… my type? But, yeah.
Also, Emilie Autumn came to DC and I COULDN’T GO. I had the money, I had the permission, and I COULDN’T FUCKING GET A RIDE. My friend who could have taken me chose between Emilie Autumn and Drop Dead Gorgeous and chose DDG. Oh, my GOD. I need to start hanging out with cooler people.
Sorry for the exesive use of capital letters.
197.
potatochip42 | January 2, 2010 at 7:19 am
What. I have no words for your friend. Emilie Autumn is infinitely more awesome than DDG.
