    Nov 9 2009, 0h33 por oooBUBU7ooo

    1.How did you get into 29? (Gli Atroci)
    Adrian postò dei video sul Nintendo Fan Forum e mi incuriosirono. xD

    2. What was the first song you ever heard by 22? (Green Day)
    American Idiot su Mtv .-.

    3. What's your favorite lyric by 33? (J.ax)
    Difficile scegliere... passaparola!

    4. How did you get into 49? (Oasis)
    Me ne hanno parlato quasi contemporaneamente Sgruf e Marta e quindi ho chiesto loro di suggerirmi qualche canzone. Nonostante quelle che ho scaricato mi piacciano ci tengo a sottolineare che loro mi stanno sulle palle. xD

    5. How many albums by 13 do you own? (Ramones)
    Fisicamente nessuno ahimé, mi sono fatto prestare Anthology e Brain Drain ma per ora non ho comprato nulla.

    6. What is your favorite song by 50? (Spinnerette)
    TocarDistorting A Code

    7. Is there a song by 39 that makes you sad? (Nirvana)
    Sliver e Come As You Are prima mi mettevano malinconia, ora mi strappano un sorriso.

    8. What is your favorite album by 15? (The Cure)
    Purtroppo posseggo solo il Greatest Hits, quindi non posso giudicare... conto di comprarne uno in edizione Deluxe appena avrò soldi però.

    9. What is your favorite song by 5? (CKY)
    Li adoro, scelta difficile! Su tutte direi [track artist=CKY]Disengage The Simulator
    , TocarTo All of You e TocarShippensburg. Poco sotto stanno Tocar96 Quite Bitter Beings, TocarEscape From Hellview, TocarPlastic Plan, TocarSink Into the Underground, TocarAttached at the Hip, TocarSara's Mask e Promiscuous Daughter.

    10. Is there a song by 6 that makes you happy? (Slipknot)
    Ahah al massimo mi danno la carica, ma allegria no. xD

    11. What is the worst song by 40? (Punkreas)
    Hm, di quelle che ho quella che mi piace di meno è Volare

    12. What is your favorite song by 10? (System of a Down)

    17. What is the first song you ever heard by 23? (Box Car Racer)
    TocarThere Is, e non son riuscito a togliermela dalla testa per un anno circa :D

    18. What's your favorite lyric by 11? (Linea 77)
    Ah, questa è proprio dura, i loro testi son tutti belli. Hm.
    "Vivo guardando le stesse facce, sentendo le stesse storie, pensando: Ho quello che volevo? Come il vento che soffia prima della tempesta un brivido percorre la schiena. Le spalle al muro, se ho paura resisto. Semplice è la via per il lato oscuro. Troppo poco tempo per correggere gli errori commessi, dimmi dove butterò i miei sogni. Dovrei passare tutta la vita a pensare alle cose che ho, alle cose che vorrei, al modo di raggiungerle e poi come difenderle? Ma io non so quello che ho adesso! Sorrido ad ogni nuovo giorno perché vivo sperando che le persone che amo proseguano nel viaggio. Stammi accanto, ammira dall'alto il paesaggio, la bellezza intorno." Tra l'altro è quasi metà di TocarFantasma. xD "Penelope, sai, come te anche io sono stanco di capire tutto quando le cose se ne vanno. E mi incanto a guardare la mia carne che tu sai tessere, sai disfare. E' già sera e non posso più nascondermi. Come un onda che impazzisce, schiuma su uno scoglio, tu mi sommergerai.", da TocarPenelope. "Volare nascosto nei cieli di questà città cercando un facile bersaglio: L'evoluzione è tutta qua. Come piloti in folle corsa, il traguardo come premio e maledizione. Più spingi e più ne vuoi.", da TocarEvoluzione

    19. Who is a favorite member of 1? (NOFX)
    ...potrei non rispondere Fat Mike?

    20. Is there a song by 14 that makes you happy? (Linkin Park)
    No, non sono un gruppo troppo allegro.

    21. What is a good memory involving 27? (Gem Boy)
    Il primo ricordo che ho di loro, ovvero la serata a scaricare loro canzoni con Fabio, e il magico concerto in piazza Comando a La Maddalena!

    22. What is your favorite song by 16? (Prophilax)
    E' dura sceglierne una. Su tutte Pornografia unica via, Dora daccela ancora, Dora facce na sega, Dora in poi si chiaverà, Dora in poi (rock version), Clerottura de cojoni, Puttanic, Re Arcù, Jingle Cazz (è dei San Culamo, ma la loro versione la owna indubbiamente), Non so nemmanco un cazzo e Il giorno della ceppa. Tutte dei capolavori. u.u

    23. What is the first song you ever heard by 47? (David Bowie)
    Temo sia Tocar"Heroes" in una pubblicità.

    24. What is your favorite album by 18? (Angels & Airwaves)
    Possiedo solo We Don't Need To Whisper[/track], e l'altro mi ostino a non scaricarlo per comprarlo in futuro. xD

    25. What is your favorite song by 21? (Sum 41)
    Penso, anche se sono banali, TocarFat Lip e TocarThe Hell Song.

    26. What is the first song you ever heard by 26? (Fall Out Boy)
    TocarThe Carpal Tunnel Of Love in una delle serate passate con Riccardo a vedere Happy Tree Friends. xD

    27. What is your favorite album by 3? (Bandabardò)
    Il mio preferito è
    Se Mi Rilasso Collasso perché ci sono quasi tutte le più belle canzoni che han fatto e dal vivo sono anche meglio che negli album in studio. Se devo sceglierne uno di inediti... pari merito tra [album artist=Bandabardò]Iniziali: Bì-Bì e Il circo mangione

    28. What is you favorite song by 2? (blink-182)
    Ahah una scelta facile, insomma! Beh... li ho ascoltati ininterrottamente per un anno e mezzo e la maggior parte mi escono dalle orecchie... quelle che tutt'ora mi piacciono ancora tanto e anzi mi piaccion di più sono TocarA New Hope, Carousel, TocarJosie, TocarPlease Take Me Home, TocarAsthenia, Dumpweed e TocarGive Me One Good Reason.

    29. What was the first song you ever heard by 32? (Gnarkill)
    L'epica Skeletor/Beastman in CKY 4 ovviamente.

    30. What is you favorite song by 8? (Elio e le Storie Tese)
    Altra scelta facile! Direi TocarUomini col borsello (Ragazza che limoni sola), TocarJohn Holmes (Una Vita Per Il Cinema) e TocarSupergiovane. Taglio corto e non cito quelle che sono al secondo posto per poco, se no non finiamo più!

    31. How many times have you seen 17 live? (Bloodhound Gang)
    Ahah cazzarola, li sto ascoltando da una mezz'oretta e aspettavo dall'inizio la domanda su di loro. Ed è uscita proprio quella dove posso mostrare di meno il mio morboso amore per Jimmy Pop, i suoi testi e la loro musica. xD In ogni caso non li ho mai visti, e probabilmente non succederà mai. Stanno facendo un tour da un po' e si vocifera di un nuovo album da un po', ma non si sa se li chiameranno in Italia a suonare se uscirà davvero. Ricordo che a TRL qualche anno fa li beccai a farsi intervistare sul terrazzo in Piazza Del Duomo in occasione della loro per ora unica data in Italia. Incrociamo le dita.

    32. Is there a song by 44 that makes you happy? (Immanuel Casto)
    Devo scegliere UNA canzone del Virgineo che mi faccia felice? Butto lì Buchi proibiti e Il Tempo Degli Abusi, che sono quelle che mi fanno più ridere, ma è impossibile sceglierne una. xD

    33. How did you get into 12? (Metallica)
    Nella pila di dischi metal che mio zio mi ha masterizzato figurano robetta come And Justice For All e Master of Puppets. Li ho ascoltati e... voilà. xD

    34. What is the worst song by 45? (Tre Allegri Ragazzi Morti)
    Non posso decidere, stanno in una posizione così relativamente alta perché ho deciso, escludendo una volta che ho ascoltato La seconda rivoluzione sessuale, di provare ad ascoltarli e mi son sentito tre album di fila.

    35. What was the first song you ever heard by 34? (Led Zeppelin)
    Se vogliamo dire la prima che mi è capitato di sentire è Whole Lotta Love nella sigla di Top Of The Pops. .-.

    36. What is the first song you ever heard by 48? (Breaking Benjamin)
    TocarFirefly in Smackdown VS Raw. E' metà delle loro canzoni che conosco e rappresenta il 75% dei loro ascolti. xD

    37. How many times have you seen 42 live? (Eminem)
    No. xD

    38. What is you favorite song by 36? (South Park)
    Mr. Hankey The Christmas Poo.

    39. What was the first song you ever heard by 28? (CapaRezza)
    TocarFuori dal tunnel. Ero piccolo e sentendola alla radio pensavo fosse di Morgan, non so perché. xD

    40. What is you favorite album by 7? (Descendents)
    Ho solo il greatest hits e un live, non so dirlo...

    41. Is there a song by 31 that makes you happy? (Me First and the Gimme Gimmes)
    Tutte. Sono meravigliosi.

    42. What is your favorite album by 41? (Guns N'Roses)
    Album interi non ne ho.

    43. What is your favorite song by 24? (Bowling for Soup)
    Uh... penso sia Tocar1985, TocarPunk Rock 101 o TocarI'm Gay.

    44. What is a good memory you have involving 46? (The Offspring)
    Quando Guido me li ha fatti scoprire.

    45. What is your favorite song by 35? (Scars on Broadway)
    TocarThey Say penso. L'album l'ho comprato pure ma la mia preferita rimane il singolo portante. xD

    46. Is there a song by 9 that makes you happy? (Rancid)
    Ahah tutte! Metto le mie preferite, vah. TocarRoots Radicals, Radio, Ruby Soho, Time Bomb, The 11th Hour, Salvation, Tenderloin, Red Hot Moon, Fall Back Down, I'm The One, Brad Logan e The Brews, Stickin' in My Eye, Vanilla Sex e Bob, che son cover dei NOFX.


    47. What is your favorite album by 4? (The Distillers)
    Sing Sing Death House, ma son tutti e tre belli.

    48. Who is your favorite member of 37? (Roberto Nastrucci)
    Ahah è un amico di famiglia che canta in maddalenino, non c'è molto da dire. xD

    49. What is the first song you ever heard by 43? (My Chemical Romance)
    TocarWelcome to the Black Parade, come per il 90% delle altre persone che li ascoltano. xD

    50. What is your favorite song by 20? (+44)
    Chapter 13, Baby Come On, Lillian, Cliffdiving o Little Death, non so... l'album è tutto bello.

    Ci ho messo un'ora e mezzo a scriver 'sta roba. La domanda è: Chi me l'ha fatto fare? D:

  • (2009 - October) A revolution backwards

    Nov 7 2009, 15h20 por empii

    So this then is my first journal at last.fm and I guess it will end up in a linguistic disaster, but nevertheless:

    What I do experience at the moment is something like a revolution backwards, back to my musical roots when I started to listen to heavier music. For quite a long while now I am listening to Heavy Metal. Bands like Iced Earth, Blind Guardian or Metallica were the big profiteers, ending up in an absolutely dominant lead for Iced Earth in my overall charts.

    What many don't know is, that the first "heavier" bands I listened to in the past were Nightwish and especially Evanescence. While my interest in both of them (and any other sort of female-fronted metal) has dropped in that Heavy-Metal-period, now it seems to come back. I nearly lost any sort of interest in Iced Earth actually and I don't really want to listen to any sort of Heavy/Thrash or Death-Metal at the moment at all.

    That really is a surprise, as I just some months ago expected to see even more dominant Metal bands in the lead at my charts.

    I think that has to do with the atmosphere of autumn, which really has arrived completely now, but somehow it could also mean something like a true revolution - just backwards. We'll see which bands will take the sceptre and crown now. Iced Earth is a long way in front of everybody else and nearly all Top-5 pursuers are not part of that revolution aswell, but who knows? Epica made up magnificent +400 plays in just three weeks, so did Stream of Passion which seem to come out of nowhere to conquer the Top 10 now. And still a big surprise is Amaran, which are to find in the Top-20 for a long time now, but only have released two albums before they split.


    That might get really exciting in the future. I'm looking forward to the Novemer 2009 journal, if there are any changes to report :).


    Greetings and have a nice November

  • Bands that fucking suck: Metallica

    Nov 4 2009, 22h29 por Bamlaflamme

    Hey, Metallica collective, since you decided it would be cool to play near me last night, FUCK YOU! I don't even know where to begin. You're almost full of suck. Sure, like any wanna-be-obscure-music-fan, I think Master of Puppets and Kill 'em Allare kind of cool, but the curve of quality between your first few albums and anything later is just unbelievably steep. You somehow managed to take something so critically acclaimed yet mediocre, and make it just absolute trashy nonsense.

    Let's start with your stint in the 90s. What? Why do you still exist? You had a place in the 80s. Your music was actually speaking for a distinct populous at that time, and you had carved a niche... so why? As musicians, I ask you, why did you continue? There was actually no point. Your musical quality descended into nothing. Kirk's solos were almost all boiler-plate and stupid; they all followed a distinct pattern that made them run together.. He used wah-wah too much, and just overall was nothing ever-so exciting as a guitarist. Their vocalist is highly uninteresting. Just in general. His voice doesn't sound like he's trying to portray anything distinct. He's just doing, not doing with reason. Which, on a larger scale, is what Metallica is all about. They have no really good reason to keep going, aside from egos.

    In the 2000s? HONESTLY? GET THE FUCK OFF MY PLANET. You seriously release albums with no intention of making any mark whatsoever. Just one after the other. Rinse and repeat your redundancies, your unoriginality, your skill that you apply to nothing, your hair (fuck yeah), and your unbelievably bad album names. Death Magnetic? St. Anger? Also, where does Metallica come from? It sounds like that element on the Periodic Table NOBODY wants to be friends with.

    You're not thrash. You're trash. That's not some joke about me saying you're not thrash. That's me saying you're barely music.

    Note: I am never in my right mind when I write.

  • 2009's Mandelbrot set

    Nov 4 2009, 16h28 por Lysander

    Actually, 2009 hasn't been a bad year at all for new releases. Having initially thought it was one of the most dreadful years on record for new music [which is what I tend to think every year] there were some good new discoveries and great older releases to unearth.

    We're still a few weeks away from the mid-December Rubicon, but in what is becoming a mini early-November tradition, here are my personal thoughts on the best so far this year.

    Halo Manash - Am Kha Astrie:



    Halo Manash's previous albums were a little too droney and self-indulgent for my liking, a lot of the time sounding like 60 minutes of a football rattle in a wind tunnel. Am Kha Astrie, along with The Language of Red Goats , is a much more ambient and mature effort. Split across seven tracks with numbers ranging from disquieting to demonic, it's possibly the most composite and rounded album the band have yet produced.

    Atrium Carceri - Souyan:



    AC gets a lot of flack from the dark ambient crowd, mainly because they've been around longer and are one of the most popular bands. Previous albums were way too oversampled but this time round AC have really reigned in the atmosphere, dropped the sampling to its lowest since Cellblock and come up with an album of perfect dark ambient combinations.

    Riverside - Anno Domini High Definition:



    This would be higher up the list if it weren't for the first three minutes of the album, Mariusz's crooning of "I hope my sell-by date didn't expire yesterday" being horribly cringeworthy. After this though, things rapidly improve and with ADHD Riverside have put out their best work since Second Life Syndrome. After the rather lost and directionless Rapid Eye Movement, ADHD is a far more realised work with the band actually making an effort to write decent music rather than coasting for 70 minutes of wankery.

    Tome / Seven Morgues - Deep in Marble:



    This split album is the combination of two projects from the same artist, Israel's Oren Ben Yosef. Most of the time just using pure vocal combinations, Tome and Seven Morgues build up an atmosphere of disenchanted, dark and demonic rituals. The use of clean vocals, hums and tortured, hissing cries is a devastating and disturbing combination, and as a result Deep In Marble comes across as one of the most difficult listens in ambient music I can remember. I recall a time when Enemite and even raison d’être seemed difficult to get through, but there's always another album to eventually take things to the next level - which Deep in Marble has done effortlessly and admirably.

    Katatonia - Night is the New Day:



    The almost perfect successor to the almost perfect In The Great Cold Distance, NITND develops the maturity and focus of its predecessor but gives it a heavier coating. Even though the atmosphere and colour of the album are exactly in the same class as I've come to expect from Katatonia, there is a slight feeling that they're going through the motions and letting the ball roll of its own accord rather than influencing its direction anymore. Nevertheless, it's a high quality album and one of the classiest 'metal' releases this year.

    Keelhaul - Keelhaul's Triumphant Return to Obscurity:



    Having previously played a kind of progressive metal/metalcore fusion, the band's 2009 album sees them more or less veer straight into technical metal. The album is largely instrumental with beefy, solid production, catchy riffs and the odd passage which is so confounding it keeps you coming back out of pure intrigue. This is one of the few metal albums I have to sit down and pay attention to to digest, a musical Rubik's cube which needs time and focus to appreciate. Along with its humorous - and intentionally mocking - song titles, it's a highly interesting and captivating piece of work.

    Redemption - Snowfall on Judgment Day:



    After the slightly disappointing Origins of Ruin, Redemption have returned with a much surer trajectory - hardly surprising given Nick's physical condition. This time round the feeling is very different in the Redemption camp. Gone is the nebulous "I can take it or leave it" feel of OOR, this time everything is sharpened: guitar solos, vocals, riffs, drumming. Everything is expertly - and emotionally - done, with Ray Alder delivering some fine vocal melodies conveyed through intensely personal lyrics.

    Album of the year candidate(s):

    This was very difficult indeed given the two at the top, both highly commendable for their own reasons. A very close second goes to:

    Black Math Horseman - Wyllt:



    In a time when most female-fronted metal has been defenestrated and decried by the large majority of fans, BMH have come out with something entirely different and welcome. OK, it may not be metal in the standard definition of the term, edging more towards post-rock/metal and ambient, but it's one of the freshest 2009 releases. Largely instrumental with only the odd smattering of echoey, pained female vocals, Wyltt is a lonely voice in the world of metal - vox clamantis in deserto - ringing out to be noticed and understood. This won't appeal to those looking for metal in its more standard forms, but for those needing something new and innovative. Each passage, each bar and each note has its own individuality and feeling, made even better by their simplicity. In the end it's the stark, bare-bones feel of the music which makes it even more powerful, effective and unnerving. A fantastic debut.

    Leaving the primary spot to:

    The Mars Volta - Octahedron:



    TMV had already threatened to make a pop record after several albums of post-ten minute songs, indecipherable lyrics, dissonant guitar solos and frenetic tempo changes. It's easy to see why the band are both revered and reviled, but they're one of the most original, talented and inventive ensembles around. Octahedron is a sea-change from the loud and frenzied The Bedlam in Goliath and sees the band put out a more 'acoustic' and mellow album. Some of it may be a little too mellow in places, and it's a shock to the system that they can put something like this after the relentless, spasmodic Bedlam. Maybe this was exactly the point, and to be able to carry off both styles with convincing aplomb is a hugely impressive feat, especially when so many bands have failed to do so.
