NP: Borknagar - The Olden Domain

[Ole]

What about doing a gig at this years Sweden Rock Festival. Then you get to see Dream Theater too ;)

[Kjetil N]

Well - OK..

Currently answering interviews for Carnation and then you need some music.

Today I've listened to "Clayman" by In Flames and "If This Darkness Lingers" by Norwegian group Emerhoff and the Melancholy Babies..

Having just moved in with my girlfriend, there are lots of CDs to listen through.. nice!!

Have a good day!

[B]Not quite original, I know, but I'm curious to see what other GC fans (and the GC guys themselves!) play..

At this moment, I`ve fallen right back to listen alot to the 2 first albums of dream theater. It`s been along time... And of course at least once a week for the last ten years I have been listening at the LOVE GUN album of KISS. Also bought the Bent out of shape album with Rainbow. It`s not quite Rainbow, but man what a great album!!!
Well, there you have it!
CHEERS!

[N.F.D.M.]

now playing...

Sigur Rós - Flugufrelsarinn

[Majkel the Telepath]

Nile - Annihilation of the Wicked
Dead Can Dance - Within the realm of a dying sun

and... Communic - Conspiracy in Mind - very good and young swedish/danish band. Their debut is very interesting with their style; mixing prog and some thrash and power elements.
Their vocalist sometimes sounds like guy in the Nevermore.

And of course I've heard some Green Carnation influences on this album. :D

[Alexandra]

CG - Dead but dreaming

[dannish]

well, momentally i'm burried in a mixture of GC's discography, cradle of filth's album 'Principle of Evil Made Flesh' and german's band 'Haggard'... a lot of good music at once he he he :)

[Pilgrim]

Opeth - Deliverance/ Damnation. Eagerly awaiting their new album
Devin Townsend - Infinity
Strapping Young Lad - City
Marillion - Brave
Immolation- Harnessing Ruin

As for strictly NOW playing: Marillion- Runaway

And what do you think about the youngest SYL child - "Alien"?

For me is much better than "S.Y.L.". The sound is full of rage and anger but there is also a place for a very delicate ballad: "Two Weeks". It sounds similar to Pink Floyd's "Wish you were here" or "A pillow of winds".

[Pilgrim]

I have only heard Shitstorm and Love? off Alien, but thats kinda enough for me to buy it soon.
I have S.Y.L and they have definately toned down on the spacy keyboard background, making the music more harsh arrangement wise. It's not bad at all though IMO, it adds diversity to their catalogue. It could be tiresome with the keyboards omnipreseent on every album. Plus, it has a fucking gem - Bring on the Young. It's so cool with that uneasy bass line and Devin's voice with a stressed psychotic vibe, than exploding into a mindfucking shriek. So, I would give SYL a fair 8/10.

[mesmonic]

NP: Testament - The Ritual

[Alexandra]

Hehe.. a controversial one here, maybe, but right now..... Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood, some kind of remix. Great song!!

Or what??

Kjetil

[MadTinus]

I just know one Gorillaz song (their best-known hitsingle) and that's kinda groovy! Never be ashamed of you musical taste Kjetil! ;) I own three Madonna LP's! And 4 Pet Shop Boys CD's... and.. :D

NP: AUDREY HORNE - No Hay Banda <== anyone??!

[Kjetil N]

Hahaha.. I'm not ashamed of any of my musical preferences, and Gorillaz was a really fresh breath in a normally quite not-too-fresh genre. No problems with most of Madonna's stuff, and I have been drinking with the former synth-player of Pet Shop Boys several times. He used to be the chairman of my football club in England, so they're OK too.. hehe..

K

[MadTinus]

Hey, that's funny! You mean Chris Lowe? He was (is?) the instrumentalist and Neil Tennant the singer.

I was into the Pet Shop Boys before I got into heavy stuff and I still like their stuff from that time, I have the "Please", "Actually", "Disco" and "Introspective" albums.

[Kjetil N]

He was a live session keyboardist (they probably had two), Scott Davidson, not really in the band, but told me some cool live stories about them, from Wembley amongst other..

Mike Oldfield's earlier work, which I have been a fan of for at least a decade. (I'm not a strict metalhead...)

[MadTinus]

Aside from everything GC, that is?The thread title is now playing, in other words, what is in your CD-player right now :).

[Alienshore]

Cheers, Mariska!

Kjetil

[JJM]

Cultus Sanguine - Shadows Blood

[Alexandra]

Chet Baker - Indian Summer

[Candlelight6]

Tristania- Pale Enchantress

[mesmonic]

Agalloch - The Mantle

A great band to come out of America, in a similiar vein to Green Carnation. Worth checking out.

[immortaldebra]

Cradle of Filth: Nymphetamine
Immortal: Special edition Sons of Northern Darkness (the DVD SUCKS!!!) so not worth buying this if you already have it. Mine was scratched up so it was worthwhile.

As for Agollach .....One of my all time favorite North American bands "Pale Folklore" was the best in my opinion.

[karpsmom]

Nightingale - Misery

I love Dan Swanö!

[MadTinus]

Just discovered last week and lovin' it:

JEFF BUCKLEY - Grace

[Candlelight6]

Katatonia- Quiet World

[JJM]

Pink Floyd - Obscured by Clouds

[Alienshore]

The Gathering- Nighttime Birds- On Most Surfaces

I just saw them last Sunday in D.C. - great show! They ended with "Black Light District". The lead singer from Giant Squid commented on my shirt (GC's "Acoustic Verses") about how cool and awesome the GC guys were. Of course I could not disagree to the truth. . .

[Mariska]

Yes, they 're great. And Dutch!!! *proud* I' ve seen them live about 5 times I think, and they re coming to Rotterdam in May so hopefully I' ll see them again then.

[FASNIC]

Right now I'm in the middle of an 80's compilation cd... Taylor Wayne, Foreigner, and then Cheap Trick. But mainly been listening to Bob Mould alot lately, along with Circle II Circle's new one.

And of course throwing the Acoustic Verses in almost daily.

[Mariska]

I' m watching Gremlins on tv hehe. (Awwwww I wanna have mog-wai as well to sing for me!)

[FASNIC]

Wow... I haven't watched Gremlins in so long. I just brought up the movie Labyrinth with someone the other day, they didn't know the movie... I felt very old ;)

[Mariska]

haha another classic!

It was was the first time ever I watched Gremlins from beginning to end though hehe. Before I was too afraid to watch it(I' m not gonna say to what age that was ;) ), and then I never got the chance to see the beginning or end or I missed the whole thing when it was on tv. But now I saw it in its entirety!
And now I really want a mog-wai to sing for me before I go to sleep :)

Know what you mean about feeling old. Last time I was playing some Depeche Mode and a friend of mine came up to me and asked what the hell I was playing. How can anyone not know Depeche Mode???

NP: Green Carnation Live in Krakow dvd- Into Deep

[JJM]

Chauchat - Chauchat

[taran]

okay,this is the music thats in or around my cd player at the moment

Rush-R30 live
Paradise lost-symbol of life

in the car at the moment to soothe the journey into work
Green carnation-acoustic verses
queensryche-empire
Levellers-levelling the land

the video diary version of alone is fuckin awesome by the way,totally sums up GC.

[JJM]

Without Face - Deep Inside

[FASNIC]

Come on... Tell me the age you finally made it through. ;)

You should look to see if you can find an mp3 of the Mog-wai singing online, and then record it in a loop.

Yeah, listening and watching stuff from your youth with other people around can do that... How can one not know Depeche? I find that with alot of bands. Of course being in the States, and listening to bands that are big everywhere else, no one has heard of some really great music here. It's funny, because I sometimes feel old about it, then other days, that I just listen to the best music, and it's better that it's not played everywhere.

NP: Queensryche - Operation Mindcrime II --- YEs I know it doesn't come out until April, I get things early. :D

[Mariska]

sorry FASNIC, no can do! :P

NP: Orphanage- Grip
Why oh why did they have to split up??? I loved this band!!!!

Next up: SOAD- BYOB

Understand... I know I didn't watch Ametyville Horror or The Shining all the way through for quite a while. ;)

My recent new discovery:

Mariska, I agree that Tarja looked odd in that yellow dress, the camera work is up close, but I can see her looking like a giant banana from a bit of distance. Going to be interesting to see what they do without her, and who they find for their voice.

Love your music taste.

NP - Voltaire - God Thinks

[taran]

GC - Duh
Maiden

Cradle of Filth - not a big fan of them, but not bad.

WASP - My Tortured Eyes

[Mariska]

So cool that you know them!
(I work for the After Forever fanclub and as merch girl for Epica).
If you like all those female fronted bands as well you should really check out Orphanage as well. It s a combination of a grunting man and a clean-vocals-singing woman. I really hate the fact that they split up recently...

[NOCTIS]

Katatonia - Sweet Nurse

[FASNIC]

Wow... A women who knows her metal, and the bands personally. ;) Nice.

I'll give them a listen... I have gotten more into the female vocals. Getting better with the growling\grunting (as a singer I like pure vocals) but the music can usually make me overlook the poor vocals. Agalloch for instance, and Haggard both are great despite the grunting and such...

NP - The God Machine - The Tremelo Song

[JJM]

Zakk Wylde - Book of Shadows

[MadTinus]

If you like all those female fronted bands as well you should really check out Orphanage as well. It s a combination of a grunting man and a clean-vocals-singing woman. I really hate the fact that they split up recently...Orphanage was great, but Rosan wasn't exactly the best female singer the world had ever seen (heard)....

[JJM]

Necromantia - Scarlet Evil, Witching Black

[immortaldebra]

Finally got my new Katatonia CD in the mail....SWEEEET! You all know how good this is (I think?)

Remember how much I loved the new Amorphis CD? It is now at the number one position on the CMJ loud music chart! YAY!

http://www.cmj.com/industry/chart_preview.php?id=4

[Candlelight6]

Finally got my new Katatonia CD in the mail....SWEEEET! You all know how good this is (I think?)

Damn I know.. I had to order mine from the Katatonia Website which the cd's come from Great Britain.. It's awesome... I still gotta give it a couple of spins to see which songs are my fav.. The single "My Twin" is of course undoubtedly Katatonia.. But I still have to decide what's the best track in there for myself...

[Buman]

The new Kata is a damn fine album. Production wise this has to be their best so far. "Increase" sticks out so far. Man, that's a good song...

[NOCTIS]

Amorphis - black Winter Day

[MadTinus]

Yeah, the Katatonia is pretty good, better than Viva Emptiness, not their best though.

Who's heard the new Daylight Dies album "Dismantling Devotion"? I'm wondering what GC fans think of them.

[Buman]

Who's heard the new Daylight Dies album "Dismantling Devotion"? I'm wondering what GC fans think of them.
Bought it a couple of weeks ago, and I must say it was a bit of a dissapointment. Quite monotonous, and sometimes even boring. It really lacked the doom/death edge that can be found on the debut "No reply"...which is awesome.

[MadTinus]

It really lacked the doom/death edge that can be found on the debut "No reply"...which is awesome.Wow, you're the first I heard who's not positive about it! Not judging your opinion though, cause honestly I expected a bit more as well, I like it, it's pretty damn good actually, but their best songs are on "No Reply" i.m.o. Still one of the better albums to be released this year though.

[Dries]

Now playing (from my iPod): The Devin Townsend Band - Synchestra
It will show up in my signature below once I have synchronised it again.

For those who speak dutch: sometimes it also shows K3 in my last played list.
:lol:! Don't hate my for that (it's just that my kids really likes it)

I am of course busy with their "musical education": It is very funny to hear a 4 year old girl sing Rammstein's - Mutter. Strapping Young Lad's Alien is a bit too much for them :emot-gigg

[Alienshore]

okay. . .lately I've been listening to:

Queensryche - O:M 2
Tool - 10,000 Days
Saga - Trust
Bruce Dickinson - Skunkworks
Pink Floyd - DSotM
Paradise Lost - Host
OSI - Free
Nektar - The Dream Nebula (Best of)
Bad Religion - The New America

Oh and I finally acquired an appreciation for the latest Nuclear Assault record - "3rd World Genocide". Took awhile but I'm diggin it now!

[Mariska]

off topic but Dries , are you a big Wolverine fan??
I'd never heard about them before but I was on tour with Epica 2 weeks ago and they were Epica 's opening act in The Underworld in London. Didn 't get a chance to see them though cause the merch stand was in the bar...

ps K3 rules hehe :devil:

[Kjetil N]

I've been listening a lot to Tom Waits lately. And he's still the best around:)

Kjetil

[DragonLady]

Sahg - and I like it a lot! Doesn't sound like I expected it to, but was a very nice surprise..

ps K3 rules hehe :devil:

Yep, I am a Wolverine fan: their music has that mix of metal and progressive rock that I like: not too loud but loud enough not to get boring. I saw them at progpower this year and their perfomance was awesome. Very intimate, very emotional, a crowd completely enchanted by their show.

Don't know if you have heard anything of them yet but If you want to get aquinted with Wolverine maybe you could start with The Window Purpose (His Cold Touch, is a great track). Coldlight Of Monday (http://www.dprp.net/reviews/200354.html) is also very good. There is some music on their Myspace page (http://www.dprp.net/reviews/200354.html)

Imagine this: a week before seeing Roger Waters and Porcupine Tree at Arrows rock festival, I will be going to K3 with my kids :dj:

Touring with Epica? Sounds good to me ;-)

[Alexandra]

Magma - Attahk
Does anybody know that band here ?

[Alienshore]

Magma - Attahk
Does anybody know that band here ?

Sorta, aren't they that band that has, um, created their own language? Been around awhile too if I'm not mistaken (formed in the 70s or possibily 60s). I've heard of them, but never heard their music. Mind giving a breif review of the record?

[Alexandra]

Sorta, aren't they that band that has, um, created their own language? Been around awhile too if I'm not mistaken (formed in the 70s or possibily 60s).

Yeeeeeeeeep !
We speak an unknown langage cos we come from an unknown country
the first album Kobaia ( the name of their langage ) had been released in 1970, and the last one K.A had been released in 2004.
47 studios and live albums... yummy

have a look on that website ( english link ) :http://www.seventhrecords.com/indexuk.html => click on Magma web radio to listen to samples.
their website is also translated in english : http://ddesassis.free.fr/magma/index2.htm

Hope you'll enjoy :)

Because I saw them at progpower yesterday: now playing
Voyager - Element V

[Mariska]

@Candlelight: did you like Epica's cover version of the song or do you prefer the original?
It's one of their best live songs in my opinion. Maybe because now for a change the guitarists are pushed forward in stead of the female singer.

[Eliane]

Anathema- A Natural Desaster(preparing for their show)[

[Candlelight6]

@Candlelight: did you like Epica's cover version of the song or do you prefer the original?
It's one of their best live songs in my opinion. Maybe because now for a change the guitarists are pushed forward in stead of the female singer.

I still like the original more. only because I think i'd been a death fan for quite a while. but they do justice to the song. and I especially liked it when they said they'd play it as a tribute to chuck.

So I hear a lot of rumours about Simone. About how she is really not that easy to deal with nor is she a sociable person. one thing is for sure though is that the lady is STUNNING.

I've got a total PTree obsession these days - their show in London in October or so was absolutely amazing (about fifth time I'd seen them, but it's really all coming together for them now), and I know they're going to explode in popularity with the new record...

Porcupine Tree - Feel So Low.

Who hasn't ever felt like this at some point?

"So see how long I can last
You can pretend that I don't exist for you
And I can laugh about it now
But I hated every minute
I was waiting for your email
And each day that you forgot to call
Just made me feel so low
So low
Christmas 1998
I tried to call
I just couldn't wait
And your message was out of date
So I left my voice on your machine
But you did not respond
OK OK OK you've won
You make me feel so low
So low (thanks)"
