My Official Gig of 2009

Dez 6 2009, 0h10 por mentalinfest

Well, I've now been to the last gig I had lined up for this year. So what have I been to this year?

Static X
Sevendust
Bloodstock (bands I enjoyed being Katatonia, Anathema, Moonspell and Sanctorum)
Prog Nation (bands I enjoyed being Opeth, Dream Theater and Bigelf)
Editors
Mew
Yes
The Enemy
Joe Bonamassa

It's not been that much of a metal year for me since moving back to Scotland.

So I've seen Opeth (my faves <3), Katatonia (who I've been waiting to see since the Last Fair Deal Tour back in god knows how long ago...), Anathema (who I'd been waiting since when I got into them back in 98/99 to see), Dream Theater (who blew me away and converted me to becoming a fan) and Joe Bonamassa (who is GOD).

But none of them won it for me. All amazing performances. However, the band who won it for me were:

MEW!

They just totally blew me away! I was so impressed by the fact Jonas could reach those high notes, the vocal harmonies were mind blowing, and the visuals they had were awesome. I couldn't fault them, other than them not playing my favourite song... Seriously amazing performance from them, just... Nah I don't have words, they were absolutely mind blowing!!!

Vader(2x)
Slayer(1x +1 upcoming)
Marduk(2x)

Heidevolk(2x)
Tyr(fucked up tags) (2x)
Týr(fucked up tags) (2x)
Moonsorrow(1x)

(21/50) that is... Not too bad right?

Now what bands did I not see (yet)?
Here is the list and the reason why.

Immortal - Haven't been near me in ages.
Occult - Renamed to Legion of the Damned, so I've seen the bandmembers play, just not the band
Belphegor - This is gonna change in January!
Gorgoroth - Totally missed it when they were here the last time. I have seen Gaahl and Kvitrafn with Wardrunathough
Behemoth - Never really had the urge to see them
Cradle of Filth - I don't even know why this is in my top 50, I don't listen to them, they just drop by allot when playing a random playlist
Windir - Obviously not possible, seen Vreid though
Bathory - Obviously not possible
Heaven Shall Burn - Not that big of a metalcore fan, but 1 or 2 ablums are just awesome
Watain - I hope this will change soon!
Taake - Desperatly want to see them.
Stratovarius - Powermetal!
Hackneyed - Hd the change at summerbreeze, but a man has to eat right? Gonna see them in december though
Children of Bodom - Same story as Cradle of Filth
I - They only had 1 gig to date, and I didn't know them back then let alone travelled that far to see them.
Borknagar - Who? How did this end up un my top 50?
Iron Maiden - No thanks
Vesania - I'll probably go when they play here (which I doubt)
One Man Army and the Undead Quartet - Actually only know 1 album and bassed on that I would like to see them.
The Prodigy - Not really a band eh? The only electronic music in my list.
Apocalyptica - Not my style
Iced Earth - No thanks
Celtic Frost - Just read they broke up (again) last year
1349 - Would see them if they ever came here!
Elvenking - Powermetal :D Had the chance to see them at Summerbreeze. But I valued my sleep more
Falconer - 1 album is sublime, the rest is just standard Powermetal. So... NO
Dark Funeral - Gonna change this summer(breeze)
Carpathian Forest - Would go
Ragnarok - Would go

Wildhoney

What is your favourite lyric that 4 has sung?

I don't care where you go you won't get away from me
Black as the night is day filled with no sympathy
Marching down the hall for a misery
I don't care where you go, you won't get away from me

How many times have you seen 5 live?
None and it doesn't seem like I ever will.

What is your favorite song by 7?
Evidence

What is a good memory you have involving the music of 10?
Childhood. Playing Diablo 2 while listening to their stuff without knowing the name of the band :)

Is there a song of 3 that makes you sad?
No.

What is your favorite lyric that 2 has sung?
she shivered, afraid that I would shoot
she`d panic, afraid that I would not
she drank it all right before my eyes
said, be my lucifer, be my lord of flies

What is your favorite song by 9?

A nerd at school running upstairs after me, holding their CD and than saying (he was tired as hell) "mr. xxx gives it back and thanks". Priceless.

Is there a song of 8 that makes you sad?
Nah.

What is your favorite album of 5?
Buried Silence. His best so far.

What is your favorite lyric that 3 has sung?
Imperious, choleric, irascible, extreme in everything, with a
dissolute imagination of the like which has never been seen,
atheistic to the point of fanaticism, there you have me in a nutshell
and kill me again or take me as I am,
for I shall not change.

What is your favorite song of 1?
Embody the Invisible

What is your favorite song of 10?
Long Lost to Where No Pathway Goes

Favourite female & male vocalists

Nov 11 2009, 19h58 por rakkel17

Male

5) Mark Jansen

Mark Jansen is and awesome grunter and screamer. He was on After Forever and then he created Epica which are both bands that I really love! He is also very powerfull and writes amazing lyrics.

4) Danny Cavanagh

I discovered him not long ago with In Parallel and I loved his voice since the beggining. I cant explain it exacly. Now Im discovering Anathema but until now I absolutly loved what I listened by them!

3) Ronny Thorsen

Ronny is another amazing grunter. I absolutly love his voice and the way he expresses on Trail of Tears' songs! I discovered him better when I bought Bloodstained Endurance this summer. And it grew up on my charts in a few days! The songs are so powerfull *__*

2) Fernando Ribeiro

Im absolutly proud of Fernando! He's from my country and he has an amazing voice (grunts and clean), writes amazing lyrics and Moonspell is really great! Its nice to see portuguese people doing something that I like! Long life for it!

1) Anders Jacobsson

Anders is a GOD! He makes Draconian sounds so awesome and I love their lyrics too. Too bad that Draconian has not so many listeners. but anyway he's THE MASTER and I really respect him. *___________*

Female

5) Simone Simons

Lovely voice colour, great tastes in music, awesome band. I really respect her, she was one of my 1st female metal vocalits and I still loving Epica too much! (I love her hair too :P)

4) Anneke van Giersbergen

Annie is awesome. She gives a lot of her emotions when she is singing. I love both The Gathering and Agua de Annique. She sounds really good in any genre and she is an amazing musician

3) Lori Lewis

I dont like Aesma Daeva very much but she sounded amazing with Therion. She has an amazing thecnique and can hit very high notes. Live Gothic is an amazing DVD!

2) Vibeke Stene

Love the work that she did with Tristania. Thats a shame that she leave music :'(. She is amazing and I'm gonna miss new works.

1) Floor Jansen

I totally loved After Forever and felt really bad when I knew that it ended. But Revamp will be nice I'm sure. Floor always give her best. Her voice is *____*
