Epiphany Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 Gloom Rock, Heavy Metal... whatever you want to classify them as: Type O Negative
EnderAndrew Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 I find it hard to take Type O serious. Bloody Kisses was a decent album, but one week they're telling their fans that they are vampires, and the next week they are werewolves and ****.
Epiphany Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 What, you talk'n bout Wolf Moon? It's not a vampire/wolf thing to me. Each album is unique from the others. IMO, they're getting better with age, Slow Deep & Hard was great, but Life Is Killing Me is phenominal. They've got "themes" for each album, Bloody Kisses being a gothic overtone, while October Rust seemed more Pagan/Wiccan. (w00t)
Kor Qel Droma Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 [ Or you could say 'where is my mind' I love 'goin out west' by Tom Waits. Cos I got hair on my chest and look good without a shirt on. Will anyone else admit to listening to the Velvet Crush? Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.

draakh_kimera Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 hey, Kaftan, is this weird enough (or is it just perverted)? Mattias Eklundh, with some, hmm, more exotic guitar effects...
Diogo Ribeiro Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 Speaking of wierd, I heard Reeves Gabrels (who worked with David Bowie in Bowie's Hours), once used a vibrator as a musical instrument. Is this true? I heard he was pretty out there in terms of exotic sounds... unfortunately I haven't heard any of his works.
draakh_kimera Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 @Role-Player: Vibrators can be used as an effect on guitars, that I know. The best description of it would be "chainsaw on speed," maybe, I dunno, but it sounds pretty funky. As for using the vibrator only, well I'm not sure how that would be done, unless you tell the audience to hum along or something
Kitch Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 I listen to all kinds of stuff and probably listen to too much music than is healthy or some such. Anyway, I've recently been listening to: isis owen do make say think ted leo and the pharmacists songs: ohia explosions in the sky the mars volta minus the bear wilco amanda woodward sufjan stevens
Diogo Ribeiro Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 Well I'm not exactly sure how he used it himself... seems that's something else to put into the "weird online searches" folder so I can later find out Chainsaw on speed, eh? Whacked

Is this true? I heard he was pretty out there in terms of exotic sounds... unfortunately I haven't heard any of his works. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yea he used it a lot in the Tin Machine days. He had the vibrator on his mic stand just like his guitar picks. LOL! Anyway he used it just like a slide guitarist uses the metal tube (not sure what it Life is like a clam.

Diogo Ribeiro Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 Cool... and weird :D Thanks for the heads up, Ellester
Scooby1 Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 Don't know why I'm adding my 2 cents, but maybe I just need to feel like I'm sort of a part of something Favorite Album: Tiamat - Wildhoney Bands I listen to most: 3 Inches of Blood Amon Amarth Angel Dust Arch Enemy Bathory Children of Bodom Cradle of Filth Dark Moor Demons & Wizards Dimmu Borgir Dream Evil Emperor Evemaster Gorgoroth Iced Earth Immortal In Flames Into Eternity Iron Maiden Kittie Lacuna Coil Lost Horizon Moonspell My Dying Bride Nightrage Nightwish Nocturnal Rites Old Man's Child Opeth Ragnarok Satyricon Siebenburgen Sirenia Slipknot Soilwork Susperia The Kovenant The Forsaken The Haunted Tiamat Tristania Tvangeste TYR Witchery Within Temptation Zyklon Enslaved Thyrfing I pretty much listen to anything as well: Tarkan Sparta Christina Aguilera Dead Can Dance Faith No More etc... tired now
Scooby1 Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 You like happy music, I take it? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> lol...have to balance out my inner happiness I find the happier I am the darker the music is that I listen to...strange if you ask me :ph34r:
EnderAndrew Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 I listen to really angsty stuff, but it's usually grunge-angst, or some light industrial like A Perfect Circle and Tool. I don't really get into metal, and 80% of the bands you mentioned I've never listened to. I can only assume given the context of those bands that I've heard.
PrincessSarah Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 Just to list a few... Our Lady Peace The Tea Party Tragically Hip Matthew Good Band Sarah McLachlan A Perfect Circle Tool Evanescence Kidney Theives Portishead Sneaker Pimps VAC VAST VNV Nation Covenant Korn David Bowie Bush Black Eyed Peas Anchondo (Local band) Grasshopper Takeover (Local band) Pomeroy (Regional/local band) Proud purveyor, owner and operator of the Wonder Twins
EnderAndrew Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 Matthew Good BandDid you mean Dave Matthews Band? Anchondo (Local band)Grasshopper Takeover (Local band) Pomeroy (Regional/local band) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Those are seriously REALLY good bands. Check out their websites.
PrincessSarah Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 No, Matthew Good Band is a Canadian band. And I can't believe I forgot to put Dave Matthews Band on my list. Proud purveyor, owner and operator of the Wonder Twins
EnderAndrew Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 All that Canuck music. It's infecting the world. I've never forgive Canada for Loverboy, or William Shatner.
PrincessSarah Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 Hey, at least I didn't list Anne Murray *shudders* With the topic on Canuck music, I should add Jann Arden to my list. She's my 4th cousin! :D Proud purveyor, owner and operator of the Wonder Twins
Master Jedi Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 Wierd Al is good music, i like to laugh, and our Aussie version of wierd al - Tripod are good too you can download their songs from the usual sources as I doubt they are going international For Real i like Evanescence Jet Avril Green day Robbie Williams probably more but can't think now and some soundtracks to movies
Kor Qel Droma Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 Hey, at least I didn't list Anne Murray *shudders* With the topic on Canuck music, I should add Jann Arden to my list. She's my 4th cousin! :D <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And don't forget to leave out Guess Who/ Burton Cummings/Randy Bachman. There are some cool canuck bands out there, though, Sloan can rock occasionally although most of their songs sound kinda the same. I think my fave Canadian band was the Grapes of Wrath. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
taks Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 i got to see The Guess Who live when i worked as a bartender at the big kahuna in st. louis. it was our last day as a matter of fact. labor day weekend (sunday) in 1993 and they played outside on a coupla flatbed trailers. we knew the bar was closing but didn't care. it was a great concert, made a ton of money and had a blast that night... they really did put on a great show. taks comrade taks... just because.
Kor Qel Droma Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 I guess I should not be so cruel. I haven't seen them live, but I really can't stand 'these eyes' . I used to detest Pete Yorns 'life on a chain' until I heard him play it live, and now he's one of my favorite artists. The guess who just bring up bad memories of being stuck watching anne murray christmas specials (tonight, anne welcomes elvis stojko, the guess who, and zappacosta) and wishing I was old enough to change the channel and not get yelled at.
