majestic Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 For a more serious post, I just love these DIF recordings: Not a DIF recording, but something uniquely local: Finland might have a reputation for having dour people, and Britain a reputation for black humor, but neither beats Viennese this sort of morbidity.

Gorth Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Here, have some good wholesome German music from a 90's band instead...

Yeah, I didn't even watch the Red Hot Chili Peppers version until after seeing this one. No surprise, I also prefer this one, . My mom loved SOAD as I was growing up, so I have some familiarity with their 90s/early 00s stuff as I heard it a lot, which certainly doesn't hurt. (e): Apparently, SOAD only made music during the 90s and early 2000s, so I guess what I said covers pretty much their entire existence. Whoops.

What sort of mainstream metal bands are we talking about? Late 90ies/early 2000s? Because they're all terrible. Except Evanescence, there only the band is terrible, assuming we count that as mainstream metal, which is a bit of a stretch already. Edited August 11, 2022 by majestic No mind to think.

Bartimaeus Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Quote Unavailable Turd Ferguson video saying "that's your opinion" I wish that there were a genre of metal fused with either dream pop or shoegaze - I need gentle or at least relatively measured vocal performances instead of all the yelling, screaming, growling and such prevalent in metal. The only metal I've ever consistently enjoyed is stuff modelled after video game music, which tends to be power metal-ish in instrumentation but minus all ludicrous fantasy nonsense and fascist undertones...and when it has vocalists, they don't play by the same rules that "proper" metal does, which I like. Well, if something like that exists as a genre, I don't know about it, . Quote How I have existed fills me with horror.

Sure would be nice to know whether anyone can see the videos that you can before you start posting them on a forum for other people to watch (or not, as it were). I mean, I can still watch them since I obviously have ways around it, but most nobody else can without a bit of trouble...which is probably too much for people to bother with. 30 minutes ago, majestic said: Neither do I, but I don't think I know anything where you'd like the vocalist.

What, just because I usually like simple (i.e. borderline monotone) singers who stick to like two, maybe three notes for an entire song...and who also don't (or can't!) hold a note for longer than a second because long notes are the devil?

Brilliant music videos too, this one often gets falsely derided for being racist, just because it has a bunch of white guys in yellow face and mixes every East Asian culture under the sun.
