2011

16 ianuarie 2011,o duminica mohorata ca la dracu, ora 15:36 doua cafele baute, acuma o incep pe a 3-a, vreo 5 tigari fumate, vreo 50 de piese aruncate la nimereala in winamp prin fascinanta optiune de shuffle. Nimic nou ce dracu...alt an aceasi poveste de cacat, imbatrinim dar tot ca la 17 ani gandim, ne ducem dracu dar tot ne amagim ca viata buna, viata faina, viata nush cum, ca love, ca mr. love, ca prieteni, ca bff, ca ... cacat! Aici esti singur! Si prin aici ma refer la teritoriul nostru extrem de bogat in resurse, cea mai frumoasa tara, cea mai frumoasa limba, cea mai dulce limba, cel mai viteaz neam, neamu ala care a rezistat eroic impotriva turcilor cu pietre si coase si furci si cu opinci si o iee(iie) sau cum dracu se scrie. Mda am un gust amar, acuma nu stiu daca e de la berea de aseara sau chiar tre sa ma spal pe dinti. Si culmea ma spal pe dinti si tot nu trece... Raman cu gustul amar! Cum as putea sa raman cu gust amar daca vorbesc cea mai dulce limba?  Mai ales dupa 2 saptamani intr-o alta tara nu va spun numele dar incepe cu G se termina in ermania. Perioada in care...aveai impresia ca traiai pe o alta planeta, inconjurat nu de oameni ci de alte vietati(alieni daca vreti voi) care chiar aveau ceva in cap si in piept si nu numai goluri si pule mari!  Dar sa nu incepem ca daca bag aici tot ce am in cap "vine astia si ma leaga". Tocmai de aia imi aprind a 6-a tigare pe ziua de astazi si ma calmez, ca nah tutunul cica relaxeaza...cand defapt combinat cu o cafea cu lapte defapt duce la o usoara senzatie ca ai bagat in tine ceva laxative....poate asa relaxeaza bagi o tigara si o cafea, te duci te...(spuneti voi cum vreti) golesti :D si poc uite si relaxarea frate! Deci ce vorbeam?...Ah nimica... :)) Aberatii aberante extrem de aberante...Nu am nimic de spus da parca e terapie intensiva sa apas tastele astea smechere de la tastatura, si in fond oricum nu citeste nimeni...deci i'm good! Dar totusi am un fir de poveste pe aici pe undeva prinde aceste randuri de zero-uri si de 1. Sincer imi e dor de varsta de 6 ani in care nu aveai alte task-uri( bah engleza asta ne omoara) decat sa te joci sa dormi si sa te distrezi. Eram mult mai fericiti. Acuma nu o luati ca o pe aluzie la suicid sau ca mai stiu eu ce... Suntem si acuma fericiti dar nu e aceeasi fericire...Imagineaza-ti nici o grija... Nu poti pentru ca esti inconjurat de ele. Traiesti cu ele si ele cu tine. Ne mai bucuram cand iese soarele si ne adunam cativa la o bere la o terasa sau la un fotbal/baschet mergem la o mare sau la un munte, sau mai stiu eu la ce bucura si altii. Dar chestiile astea trec si tot la neputinta noastra ne intoarcem, la nerealizarea viselor de cand erai copil mic. Oai cate idei si cate vise am avut cand eram mic. Cate dorinte, cate planuri...si ajung acuma la 25 de ani...inca sunt tanar...si parca sunt extrem de departe de tot de toata copilaria mea...de toata inocenta mea. Aratati-mi-l pe ala care poate spune ca si-a realizat toate dorintele de cand era mic... Si daca tot vorbeam de dorinte am avut si o dorinta mica si inofensiva...de vreo 10 ani incoace am vrut sa cant si eu cu niste oameni! Si cand am gasit acei oameni super OK eu eram la cluj si ei in sibiu...nici cum nu am reusit...si de-atunci am avut o gramada de incercari si experiente care m-au cam facut sa renunt la acest vis... Uai scuze acuma ca imi plang mie de mila...da oricum vb pentru mine...si uite am dat un exemplu de dorinte...O sa fie vorbe ca nu am incercat destul...ca nu tre sa renunt...ca dracu mai stie ce...In fine...Hai ca mi se termina si tigara si deja am inceput sa vb numai tampenii...Anyway...Lasa-ti grijile deoparte si traiti-va viata asa cum e mai maronie pt unii, mai roza pentru altele(altii) ca acuma e timpu...bucurati-va din nimicurile de zi cu zi ca ele fac diferenta...Nu mai ganditi in asamnblu...nu mai ganditi in trecut...nu mai ganditi in viitor...traiti in prezent...si mergeti pe mentalitatea romanului prost gramada...I am the best, fuck the rest!

Infected Rain


As their Myspace information says: "A combination of female scream, hard riffs and samples created the individual style of Infected Rain.

Ghost Brigade

GHOST BRIGADE

Ghost Brigade is a five-piece metal band from Jyväskylä, Finland, formed in 2005. They have taken elements from melodic death metal, doom metal and progressive metal into their music. Wille Naukkarinen (guitars): “In Ghost Brigade, selling albums is not what it’s about. It’s about the feeling I get when I write a new song, which I only get when I know the song is good enough. The metaphor for that is “the fire”. That explains the title of the album. We are guided by fire.” A quote on their website states (by date of the debut release) “there’s nothing above or below us, no written word wise enough, just notes that carry the silent fire.”

Their album “Guided By Fire”, released in September 2007, consists of dark, intelligent music that hasn’t given up the ghost on being a metal band. Their second album “Isolation Songs”, to be released in August 2009, continues in this line.

For their debut album, Aleksi Munter of Swallow the Sun played keyboards as a session member for the band. Fredrik Nordin of the stoner rock band Dozer also did guest backing vocals on a track for their debut album.


Band members
Manne Ikonen - Vocals, Live Guitar
Tommi Kiviniemi - Guitar
Wille Naukkarinen - Guitar

Si cu aceasta postare deschid sezonul de toamna, in care nu mai prezint piese de vara, ci formatii noi pentru mine, care m-au impresionat de la prima piesa... Si acest band Ghost Brigade cu siguranta merita. Dupa cum si zicea un tip la un commet pe youtube:"these guys seriously understant how music works" That's so fuckin true! 

Deci cand gasesc un band, un sound care sa merite pentru colectia mea muzicala, atunci o sa postez aici si poate, de ce nu sa aduc idei noi atunci cand vine vorba de metal!

See you on the other side

Chiar daca vara s-a cam dus dracu si se apropie iarna(si asa e bine :)) ) am pregatit aici o piesa, defapt un super summer song, pe care sa il ai la tine in cd player in masina blana in drum spre vama :D

Piesa incepe cu "We thank you people for being around,supporting volbeat with love and hellfire" Deci cred ca deja ati ghicit ca e vorba de trupa Volbeat. Piesa intradevar poate nu este cunoscuta si asta doar din cauza ca este de pe proaspatul album scos Beyon Hell/Above Heaven.

Si acuma sa ii dam drumu cu un pic de info. Asadar trupa Volbeat isi are originea in peninsula si mai anume in Danemarca uite chiar din Copenhaga. Totul a inceput in anul 2001. Deci daca sunteti un fan rockabily sau rock'n roll sau heavy sau daca va place Metallica, Social Distorsion, Elvis Presley sau chiar Johnny Cash atunci recomand sa mai cautati piese Volbeat. Si acuma sa facem cunostinta cu Volbeat si adica, vocalul si chitaristul Michael Poulsen, basistul Anders Kjolholm, chitaristul Thomas Bredahl si tobarul John Larsen.
Numele trupei se inspira dupa numele albumului Vol. Beat ce apartine lui Michael Poulsen former's band Dominus. Vol inseamna volum si Beat inseamna...hmm nu stiu cautati si voi...

And the versuri...

We thank you people for being around
Supporting Volbeat with love and hell fire
Gu fanden do we care
You're all our brothers, sisters and our babies
Going out on the streets again with open arms and fists
Sweating out all the whiskey tømmermænd
And the pain that comes with it
But we know who we are and more
Protectors of this band - oh oh oh oh
And we know we're not alone anymore
We got supporters in this rock'n'roll band
This song's for all the ones who's singing out loud
Yeah! We make a lot of noise
Refuse to sit down and be tamed
We still think that we owe you some
So we're making a lot of noise
We sing it out loud we sing it out proud
I sacrificed all the things that we had
Just to do this thing
Not even money for some glue
So we hang all the posters up with jam
But we know who we are and more
Protectors of this band - oh oh oh oh
And we know we're not alone anymore
We got supporters in this rock'n'roll band
This song's for all the ones who's singing out loud
Yeah! We make a lot of noise
Refuse to sit down and be tamed
We still think that we owe you some
So we're making a lot of noise
We sing it out loud we sing it out proud
We thank you people for being around
Supporting Volbeat with love and hell fire
Gu fanden do we careYou're all our brothers, sisters and our babies
So when you singing this song out loud
Remember it's for you, for helvede we are proud
Let's all have a beer you're all our brothers, sisters and our babies
This song's for all the ones who's singing out loud
Yeah! We make a lot of noise
Refuse to sit down and be tamed
We still think that we owe you some
So we're making a lot of noise
We sing it out loud we sing it out proud

Si piesa...



Si pana data viitoare...

19.09.2010 Chimaira - Resurrection

Chimaira (pronounced /kaɪˈmɪərə/) is an American heavy metal band from Cleveland, Ohio, formed in 1998. The band is a notable member of the New Wave of American Heavy Metal. Their band name is derived from the word Chimera, a monstrous creature in Greek mythology. They play a style of mainly groove metal,
with some metalcore, industrial metal, and death metal influences. 
 In 2006, the band was released from its contract with Roadrunner Records and eventually signed with Ferret Records for United States distribution. They also struck a deal with Nuclear Blast for international operations. The band was said to be excited about its new deals, and its fourth album Resurrection was released on March 6, 2007. The band feels rejuvenated after its split with Roadrunner and the readmission of Herrick on drums. The only downside of this happy event was that the band decided to call off the Eastpack Antidote tour with Soilwork, Sonic Syndicate and Caliban. Chimaira was replaced by Dark Tranquillity. In 2008, Chimaira joined Brendon Small on the Dethklok tour 2008 as a guest appearance.
Resurrection is the fourth studio album by Chimaira, released on March 6, 2007. Debuting at number 42 on the Billboard 200 charts, Resurrection shipped about 16,000 copies sold in its first week. The album was released in two forms: a regular version, and a limited edition version with different cover artwork and a DVD documentary of the making of the album. Chimaira's first album with Ferret Music since leaving Roadrunner Records, Resurrection features drummer Andols Herrick who rejoined the group.The international edition issued by Nuclear Blast was issued in a digipack along with the DVD documentary. However, the cover artwork was the standard one.
There's also a tin box limited to 500 copies from Nuclear Blast Germany, that includes the album with the DVD, plus six pictures of the band and a numbered authenticity certificate.



 And the lyrics are: 



 

free at last
finally tasting happiness
five years of hell for nothing
trapped inside the minds of failures

a wise man once said
that which does not kill us makes us stronger
thought we were dead
so are we now invincible?

determination, perseverance, resolution, resurrection(x2)

final straw
underlying ignorance
consumed by greed and hate
Kept under the feet of Tyrants

reality kicked in
raced against time just to start all over
treated like shit
pushed aside and expendable

determination, perseverance, resolution, resurrection(x2)

we have become so god damn powerful (x6)

all the beatings you gave us, we will use them against you


determination, perseverance, resolution, resurrection(x2)


free at last
finally tasting happiness
the resurrection








Till next time...

KoRn all the respect ever!

KoRn was...fuck i got no words to describe the vibe that was there...So thank you KoRn for these awsome memories.

Imi aduc aminte ca era ora 14 si eram la o terasa...ma uitam din minut in minut la ceas cu speranta sa treaca timpul cat mai repede sa inceapa concertele. Dupa o lunga asteptare, intr-un final s-a facut si ora 17:30 si pe scena mare si-a facut aparitia Subscribe, care sa fim realisti nu a avut cea buna prestatie. Desi simteam oboseala acumulata in noaptea de dinainte, mi-am gasit energia necesara sa savurez si sa imi fac incalzirea pentru KoRn. Apoi au urmat Zdob si Zdub cu o prestatie super, plina de energie, care m-a facut sa realizez ca am cam uitat cat de faine sunt concertele lor. Mai ales ca au avut un playlist foarte bine gandit, in acelasi film cu acea seara. De la piese ca Zdubi bateti tare pana la Bunica bate toba, a fost un concert foarte reusit.
Apoi dupa vreo 2 ore...dupa inca o trupa, se apropia incet dezlantuirea. Asa ca am inceput sa ma strecor pana in fata scenei. Au inceput probele de sunet. Staff-ul KoRn pregateau scena. Trebuie sa recunosc ca la inceput eram un pic sceptic, mai ales pentru ca am vazut ca JD nu a venit cu stativul lui, Ray fara setul lui de tobe personalizat. Dupa o intarziere a inceput in final si concertul. Wow. Nu faceau pogo 10 oameni ci toata multimea. Era nebunie! Mii de oameni sareau jumate de metru! Efectiv nebunia lui dumnezeu! :)) sa zic asa!
Plus ca si-au ales un playlist care cuprindea piese unu si una...de la legendara BLIND la CLOWN la SHOOTS AND LADDER(care wow cu bagpipes cu tot) la FREAK ON A LEASH la FALLiING AWAY FROM ME la SOMEBODY SOMEONE la GOT THE LIFE pana RIGHT NOW, DID M TIME, OILDALE. Sa nu uitam de Blind care de la primele sunete in cinele tot ne-am pus jos si asteptam faimosul ARE YOU READY sa inceapa delirul! Se mai auzea un "Stai in p..a mea jos" sau un get the fuck down!
Plus solo-ul de tobe de la Ray. Plus claparul nou integrat perfect in band! Ce mai!! NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE!!!!!!! FUCKING AWSOME!!!!!!!!!



Feel the vibe...

And this again a special edition :D, dedicated to one of the biggest bans in nu metal. Well the story begins early in 1993, in Bakersfield, California. The band was founded after the group L.A.P.D. disbanded, due to singer Richard Morrill's drug addiction. Musicians Reginald Arvizu, hiney James Shaffer, and David Silveria wanted to continue, recruiting guitarist Brian Welch and vocalist Corey Cinque. This reformation became known as Creep. After recording a demo tape around 1992, they became dissatisfied with Cinque, and fired him from the band. They continued to search for a new vocalist.

In early 1993, the band took notice of vocalist Jonathan Davis after seeing his band Sexart and made an attempt into recruiting him into Creep. Davis initially did not want to join the band, but after consulting a psychic he decided to audition and then joined. After Davis was recruited, they shared an interest into renaming the group. After pioneering some names, the members decided on "Corn." Davis suggested the name during a jam session. One of the band members came up with the idea to spell it as "KoЯn", with the stylization of that of a child would design it, with a "K" instead of "C" and a backwards, upper-case "R".
In April that year, the band began a working relationship with producer Ross Robinson, which led to their first demo tape entitled Neidermeyer's Mind. The band experienced problems within the search for a label during its first year due to the 1990s rock scene, which was primarily grunge. After many attempts at a record deal, Paul Pontius from Immortal/Epic Records heard the band in a nightclub and was so impressed, then signed them on the spot. With a producer and a label, Korn started work on their self-titled debut album.

Musically, the album was a mix of heavy metal, grunge, hip hop, and funk the latter elements encompassed in the rhythmic approach to the band's compositions. "Blind" was the first single from the album, which got a decent amount of airplay and attention. Once Korn saw a release on October 11, 1994, the band toured incessantly with no support from radio or video stations. The band relied solely on their intense live shows which created a large cultlike following of dedicated fans. It was the effort of this fanbase that helped push Korn onto the Billboard 200, eventually peaking at #72 in 1996, with "Shoots and Ladders" being their first Grammy nomination for Best Metal Performance. On their first large tour, Korn opened for Danzig alongside Marilyn Manson. Other bands Korn opened for in 1995 included Megadeth, 311, Fear Factory, Flotsam and Jetsam, and KMFDM. However, the first tour that widely exposed the band was opening for Ozzy Osbourne alongside Deftones. After opening for lesser-known bands such as Dimestore Hoods, Sugar Ray (at the time), and Life of Agony, Korn returned to the studio to record a second album.

Korn teamed up with Ross Robinson once again for their second album, Life Is Peachy, released on October 15, 1996. Musically, it was similar to the first album, but also showed more of a funk influence on tracks like "Porno Creep" and "Swallow". The album included two covers, War's "Low Rider", with Davis' bagpipes and Welch on vocals, and Ice Cube's "Wicked", with guest vocalist Chino Moreno of Deftones. To help promote their new album, Korn opened for Metallica, and utilized the Internet. Life Is Peachy sold more than 106,000 copies in its first week and reached #3 on the Billboard 200. The first single, "No Place to Hide", spawned a Grammy nomination for Best Metal Performance. "A.D.I.D.A.S." was the second single and only music video, which also did well. The band gained more popularity after co-headlining the Lollapalooza music festival in 1997 with Tool. However, Korn was forced to drop off the bill after Shaffer was diagnosed with viral meningitis. Also that year, Korn augmented their growing crossover appeal by collaborating with Los Angeles-based production and remix duo the Dust Brothers on the track "Kick the P.A.". This track appeared on the motion picture soundtrack of the film Spawn.

In late 1997, Korn formed their own record label, Elementree Records. The first band signed was Videodrone, whose singer, Ty Elam, is credited with giving Jonathan Davis singing lessons. Orgy, however, released their debut album prior to Videodrone's, giving Elementree its first Platinum certification. Orgy's guitarist, Ryan Shuck, is known for playing alongside Davis and Elam in the band Sexart. Over the next few years, Korn signed other acts like rapper Marz and Deadsy.

Prior to the release of the band's third album, Korn produced a weekly online TV show, KornTV, which documented the making of the record and featured special guests such as porn star Ron Jeremy, Limp Bizkit, and 311. The project also gave fans the chance to call in and ask the band questions, an approach that represented one of the first times a band utilized the Internet in such a way. Korn released their third album, Follow the Leader, on August 18, 1998, which featured a number of guest vocalists such as Ice Cube, Tre Hardson from the Pharcyde, Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit and actor Cheech Marin on the hidden track "Earache My Eye" (written by Marin himself).

Korn launched a political campaign-style tour (the 'Korn Kampaign') to promote the release of Follow the Leader. The tour took the group, on a chartered jet, all over North America to help promote Follow the Leader. They talked to fans and answered questions during special "fan conferences", which were organized at every stop along the tour route, and signed autographs. Jim Rose hosted the entire "Kampaign" tour.

The album was a complete success, debuting at #1 on Billboard with 268,000 copies sold, and spawning the singles "Got the Life" and "Freak on a Leash". They both exposed Korn to a wider, mainstream audience, with the music videos being mainstays on MTV's Total Request Live. "Got the Life" was the show's very first "retired" video, with "Freak on a Leash" reaching that same success months later. The singles also fared well on Billboard, with "Freak on a Leash" peaking in the top 10 of both Mainstream Rock and Modern Rock, the latter of which it spent 27 weeks on—more than any other Korn single to date.

"Freak on a Leash" won a Grammy for Best Music Video, Short Form, and received a nomination for Best Hard Rock Performance. The video also earned nine MTV Video Music Awards nominations for Video of the Year, Best Rock Video, Breakthrough Video, Best Direction, Best Special Effects, Best Art Direction, Best Cinematography, Best Editing, and Viewer's Choice. It eventually won two, for Best Rock Video and Best Editing. Follow the Leader is the band's most commercially-successful album, being certified 5x Platinum by the RIAA and having sold almost ten million copies worldwide.

The same year Follow the Leader was released, Korn started their own annual tour called the Family Values Tour. Korn headlined the highly-successful tour along with Incubus, Orgy, Limp Bizkit, Ice Cube, and the German industrial band, Rammstein. A live CD and DVD were released and earned Gold and Platinum certifications, respectively. In 1999, Limp Bizkit headlined, along with Primus, Staind, The Crystal Method, Method Man & Redman, and Filter. Korn were not featured on the bill and instead only made surprise appearances at a few of the stops to perform "Falling Away From Me" from "Issues". The tour took a break in 2000.

The band's fourth album, Issues, produced by Brendan O'Brien, was released on November 16, 1999, featuring cover art designed by Alfredo Carlos, who won a contest held for the fans by MTV. Issues was released during a week of many highly-anticipated records. It debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 with more than 573,000 copies sold, keeping Dr. Dre's long-awaited album 2001 and Celine Dion's greatest hits album from hitting #1.

To celebrate the album's release, the band performed the record in its entirety in front of a live audience at New York's historic Apollo Theater and broadcast the concert simultaneously across many radio stations. This performance made Korn the first rock band, and only the second predominantly white musical group, to ever perform at The Apollo, after the legendary Buddy Holly in the late 1950s. Correction, hall and oates performed at the apollo in 1985 . This special event featured the NYPD marching drum and bagpipe band conducted by Richard Gibbs as well as a group of back-up singers to enhance the more melodic choruses Davis used on the album.

Earlier that year, Korn had appeared on an episode of South Park, titled Korn's Groovy Pirate Ghost Mystery, in which the first single from Issues, "Falling Away from Me", was premiered. Korn released two more singles from Issues, "Make Me Bad" and "Somebody Someone", both of which fared well on Billboard. Videos were shot for all three singles, with long time friend Fred Durst directing "Falling Away from Me", and Martin Weisz directing a concept video for "Make Me Bad", as well as a performance video for "Somebody Someone", which featured the use of CGI effects. Every video was a staple on Total Request Live, two of which made it to retirement. Issues is considered by some critics to be less hip hop-influenced and closer to alternative metal than nu metal. It was certified 3x Platinum, following up the success of Follow the Leader.

For the Sick and Twisted Tour, following the release of the Issues album, the band allowed fans attending each show on the tour to vote for that show's setlist. The voting was done on the band's official website. Fans were given the chance to vote for their 5 favorite songs from each of Korn's albums. The votes were tallied and a unique setlist was created and played for each stop along the tour. The show also featured the "Spike & Mike Sick & Twisted Animation Festival" which was displayed for fans on a large screen before the band played its set. The first leg of the tour lasted from February to April 2000, at which time the band jumped onto the Summer Sanitarium tour until returning to the Second leg of the tour in July and finishing in August.

 On June 10, 2002, after a year and a half of hard work and a long creative process, Korn re-emerged into the media spotlight with their fifth album, Untouchables. It debuted at number 2 on the Billboard 200 with 434,000 in sales. Sales were disappointing in comparison to the first four albums, as Untouchables has only been certified Platinum once. The band has blamed Internet piracy for the drop in sales, as an unmastered version of the album had leaked three months prior to its official release date.

The release of this album was preceded by a show at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York, a day prior to the album's release, broadcast digitally throughout U.S. movie theatres. Untouchables featured electronic beats, strings and various guitar effects the band had never used in an album before. The overall feel was drastically different from previous efforts, particularly tracks like "Alone I Break", "Hating," and "Hollow Life," which singer Jonathan Davis claims is one of his favorite Korn songs to this day.

The first two videos from Untouchables were directed by the Hughes Brothers (best known for their films, Menace II Society and From Hell). The first video, "Here to Stay", has the band playing inside a TV with a static background along with controversial news stories and world issues being presented. The song itself earned Korn a Grammy for Best Metal Performance, and would become their highest-peaking single on Billboard's Modern Rock chart. The second video, "Thoughtless", was a nod back to Davis' childhood as the character in the video (previously featured in the first Vanilla Coke commercial) is picked on and constantly beaten. The third video for Untouchables, "Alone I Break," was directed by Sean Dack, who won the honor of directing the video through an MTV contest.

Prior to their next album, Korn released a new single, "Did My Time" on July 22, 2003, which was used to promote the film but did not appear on the soundtrack to Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life. Angelina Jolie appeared in the Dave Meyers-directed video. "Did My Time" also gave Korn yet another Grammy nomination in the Best Metal Performance category. Take a Look in the Mirror marks Korn's attempt to return to a more aggressive sound as featured on their earlier albums and brings back the classic rap style on songs "Play Me" and a Live Version of Metallica's "One" as a Hidden track, making it the first album since Follow The Leader to feature such attributes. The album peaked at #9 and has been certified Platinum by the RIAA. It spawned four singles "Did My Time", "Right Now", "Y'All Want a Single", and "Everything I've Known" charting on Billboards Mainstream Rock Tracks at #12, #11, #23, and #30 respectively.

Korn released their greatest hits album, Greatest Hits Vol.1, on October 5, 2004. The album debuted at #4 on Billboard, selling more than 129,000 copies. It featured two cover songs as singles, and a compilation of the band's hits from the past 10 years. The first single was a cover of the song "Word Up!", which was originally made popular by the group Cameo. The second single was a medley of all three parts of Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall". A remix of their hit single "Freak on a Leash" was also included as a bonus track. Special editions of the album included a DVD titled Korn: Live at CBGB featuring seven select songs from their November 24, 2003 show at CBGB.

Prior to Korn starting work on See You On The Other Side, Brian "Head" Welch announced that he had "...chosen the Lord Jesus Christ as his savior, and will be dedicating his life to his daughter and spiritual guidance," and was formally leaving Korn. Initial speculations that this was a hoax or practical joke were proven wrong; he has become highly spiritual, even being baptized in the Jordan River and speaking openly about his faith and conversion. This was the band's first official line-up change in their history.

Upon completing their record deal with Sony, Korn partnered with EMI and signed to Virgin Records. As part of this innovative arrangement, Virgin paid Korn $25 million upfront in exchange for a share in the profits of their next two studio albums, including tours and merchandising. Virgin also received a 30 percent stake in the band's licensing, ticket sales and other revenue sources.

The band's first album for Virgin, See You on the Other Side, was released on December 6, 2005, and debuted on #3 on the Billboard 200, scanning close to 221,000 copies. The album managed to stay in the top 100 of the Billboard 200 for 34 consecutive weeks. The first single from the album, "Twisted Transistor", was accompanied by a comedic video directed by Dave Meyers in which rap stars Xzibit, Lil' Jon, Snoop Dogg, and David Banner portray Korn. The single itself peaked at #3 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks, Korn's highest entry thus far, and #9 on Modern Rock. The second single, "Coming Undone", had its performance-based video directed by Little X, who previously helmed only hip hop and R&B videos. See You on the Other Side is certified Platinum, and has sold over two million copies worldwide.

Korn held a press conference at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery on January 13, 2006, announcing the See You on the Other Side Tour. 10 Years and Mudvayne were selected to open all dates of the trek, which kicked off in their hometown of Bakersfield, on what Mayor Harvey Hall officially declared as "Korn Day", February 26. The resurrection of their Family Values Tour was announced on April 18, 2006, which featured co-headliners Deftones, Stone Sour, Flyleaf, and the Japanese metal group, Dir En Grey on the main stage. Korn and Evanescence co-headlined the 2007 edition, with Atreyu, 2006 alumni Flyleaf, Hellyeah, and Trivium rounding out the main stage.

While promoting See You on the Other Side in Europe, Jonathan Davis was diagnosed with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, a blood platelet disorder that hospitalized him for the weekend and prevented him from performing at the renowned Download Festival. The band still performed, with guest singers including Corey Taylor of Slipknot/Stone Sour fame, Skindred's Benji Webbe, and Avenged Sevenfold's M. Shadows. This led to Korn canceling the rest of their European bill for 2006, including the Hellfest Summer Open Air. It was originally unknown to the public what his ailment was, but the singer revealed in a letter to fans that he was "dangerously low on blood platelets and at a high risk of death from a hemorrhage if the problem was not treated". His illness did not affect the 2006 Family Values Tour.

In early December it was announced that founding drummer David Silveria would be taking an indefinite “hiatus” from the band. Korn then performed at the MTV studios in Times Square on December 9, 2006, for the MTV Unplugged series, which was broadcast on February 23, 2007, through MTV.com and on March 2, 2007, across North American, South American, European and Asian MTV stations. In front of a crowd of approximately 50 people, Korn played a 14-song acoustic set complete with guest appearances by The Cure and Amy Lee of Evanescence. The performance was eventually cut down to 11 songs for the album, two of which did not air on MTV. Sales of nearly 51,000 brought MTV Unplugged: Korn to #9 in its first week out.

Korn's untitled eighth album was released on July 31, 2007, debuting at #2 with 123,000 copies in its first week. The album has been certified Gold for shipments in excess of 500,000 copies. It also concludes Korn's unique deal with Virgin Records, and features touring keyboardist Zac Baird, giving the tracks a deeper, atmospheric sound. Drumming duties were left up to Terry Bozzio, and Bad Religion's Brooks Wackerman, as David Silveria went on a hiatus. Joey Jordison from Slipknot played drums during Korn's live shows until the permanent addition of Ray Luzier, confirming David's departure. "Evolution" and "Hold On" were released as singles to promote the album, charting on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks at #4 and #9, respectively. A third single, "Kiss", had a limited release in April 2008, being pulled from radio stations over a month after its release.

 Ubisoft reported in October that "Korn has written and recorded an original song inspired by Ubisoft's "Haze" video game, simply entitled "Haze", which was released on April 22, 2008. As a first in the video game industry, "Haze" will be released and promoted as a full-fledged single and music video, not just as an exclusive download with the video game.

Korn also released a new live DVD, Korn: Live in Montreux 2004, one of their performances with former guitarist Brian Welch on May 12, 2008. Additionally, a second greatest hits compilation titled, "Playlist: The Very Best of Korn" was released on April 29, 2008.

In February of 2009, Korn announced they were playing at the Rock Fest in Cadott, Wisconsin, as well as the 3rd annual Rock on the Range in Columbus, Ohio. Later on, the band were confirmed for the Download Festival taking place in the UK, sub-headlining to Faith No More, as well as the simultaneous German festivals Rock am Ring and Rock im Park. In 2010, Korn headlined the 2010 Mayhem Festival alongside Rob Zombie, Lamb of God, and Five Finger Death Punch.

In a YouTube video, Fieldy discussed the "Chi Song" project he was putting together (released as "A Song for Chi") which was made to raise money for Deftones bassist Chi Cheng who was in a car crash in late 2008, which resulted in him falling into a coma. Fieldy revealed that Slipknot guitarist Jim Root, Clint Lowery of Sevendust, drummer Dave McClain of Machine Head and former Korn guitarist Brian "Head" Welch, would be some of the many musicians playing on the song. This was the first time Head has played with any of his former band mates since his departure in 2005.

In 2009, Korn (Jonathan Davis playing drums, Fieldy on bass and Munky on guitar) appeared in Lil Wayne's "Prom Queen" music video.

It was also revealed that drummer Ray Luzier was now an official full time member of Korn, and that he was writing for the new album.

In an interview with Ross Robinson, he stated that this will be his third Korn album and that the album was going to be ruthless and remind everyone who can kill them. Also in response to the question "Will Korn be returning to their roots" Robinson replied: "What roots? They have Bakersfield and I have Barstow – we really don't want to go back there. If 'roots' is to destroy and wake people from sleep walking through life, then yes." Ross also mentioned that if he had to sign any unsigned band to his record label it would be Korn, since they we're at the time unsigned.

Jonathan Davis stated that after the band finish the "Escape from the Studio Tour" in the fall of 2009, he will be able to go into the studio and start writing and recording on the songs fellow members Fieldy, Munky, and Ray have already written. He went on to state after that the band can pretty much add to the songs and fix the cracks then let Ross go through them, and the album will start coming together fast and should be aiming for an early 2010 release date. Soon after this announcement, the Rockstar Mayhem YouTube channel released a video featuring a song from the new album titled, "My Time". In less than an hour, it was abruptly removed and efforts were then made by Korn's representatives to stop the leak that began spreading quickly over various social and Korn fansites. Ross Robinson later stated on his Twitter that the leak was "rough mix" that was missing guitar parts and vocal fixes. Rumor began to circulate that the song would be cut from the album. When asked via Twitter to confirm this rumor, Robinson stated that it would be on the album. The title has been changed to "Are You Ready To Live?" for the album.

On March 15, 2010 in the announcement of the Ballroom Blitz Tour, the title for the new album was revealed as Korn III: Remember Who You Are.. Fifteen days later, on March 30, 2010, Munky announced that Korn was officially signed to Roadrunner Records.. "Oildale (Leave Me Alone)" was released as the first single on May 5, 2010; a music video was subsequently released.

In July of that same year, Korn played "Oildale (Leave Me Alone)" and premiered "Let the Guilt Go" (Which would later be released as the second single) on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

On July 12, 2010, during Call of Duty: Game With Fame, Jonathan Davis announced that the long awaited "Korn Kovers" will not be making an official appearance in retail stores due to unforeseen circumstances. Songs may still be released in the future through other means.

Thanx a lot wikipedia.org for this awsome biography of the band.

Now after such a good read and after 5 cigarets :)) now u should pack ur bags and go to peninsula fest and see KoRn for the first time in Romania.

The song presented here...Hmmm a very hard decision...So i think i'm gonna choose: Justin taken from the "Follow the leader" album.

And the lyrics...

Fuck all that bullshit!

You watch me play.
I look away.
Your lights turn bright.
You found the light.

Take, off in space. You and I.
Take, off in space. You and I.

You're gonna die!
Wanna meet me, why?
I wish I had your strength
Inside your soul escapes.

Take, off in space. You and I.
Take, off in space. You and I.

Cry, into me.
Hold me... something... alright...
The kids that die listening to me.

You are alive!

Take, off in space. You and I stay....
Take, off in space. You and I.
Take, off in space. You and I.

I'm looking at you through the glass...no not this time :D but it will come :P
So today i'm gonna stop at a classic one :D It was one of the first metal songs i've ever listened to, and i had the chance to hear it live in sibiu at the first edition of Artmania...Hell No i'm not talking about Him :)). It's about a Finnish metal band started by Jan Rechberger, Tomi Koivusaari, and Esa Holopainen in 1990. Initially, the band was a death metal act, but on later albums they evolved into playing other types of genres, which include heavy metal, progressive metal, and folk metal. They frequently use the Kalevala, the Epic Poem of Finland, as a source for their lyrics. The band released 9 studio albums, the last one dated 2009. I think you've guessed already that i'm talking about AMORPHIS.
Well the song i'm gonna present is taken from the third full-lenght album called Elegy released in 1996. The album is their first to feature a majority of clean vocals, sung by new vocalist Pasi Koskinen. The music and lyrics are inspired by the traditional Finnish ballads and poems compiled in the Kanteletar by Elias Lönnrot in 1840. The primary genre of the album is progressive metal, with strong folk influence, as well as elements of melodic death metal and New Wave of British Heavy Metal.
The song is called...AGAINST WINDOWS

And the lyrics...

The Devils weds a widow
Death another's leftovers
Better to lie on a willows
Rest on alder boughs
Then upon a widow's bed
On a used woman's pillow
Sweeter the side of a fence
Then a widow's flank

Softer the side of a grove
Than a widow's beside is

The Devil weds a widow
The grave one twice wed
A widow's hand is rougher
Than a dry spruce bough
With which she strikes the playful
Grabs the one who laughs
A widow has had her games
And spent a merry evening

Aprind tigara, iau o gura de cola si incep intr-un mod putin diferit aceasta postare si anume fara titlu, fara prezentarea piesei si a formatiei si fara alte informatii. 

Lasand la o parte "vorbaraia" fara sens trec la ceea ce ne intereseaza si va spun:

THERE IS NO TIME

NO TIME TO REGRET

THE ERASER'S COMING FOR YOUR LIFE

YOU GOT TO RUN

STAY AWAY FROM THE LIGHT

THE ERASER'S HERE TO TWIST YOUR MIND!






And the lyrics are...


Here it comes to subject the terror you forgot
No memories from the past
The unexplainable starts to appear
As your sub-consciousness begins to come back again

Reality fades away
You try to find a solution
Here it's coming now, indecision
You're free but you can't see through the confusion

[Chorus]
There is no time
No time to regret
The eraser's coming for your life
You got to run
Stay away from the light
The eraser's here to twist your mind

Feel your soul connected to the universe
The solstice is complete
They controlled your thoughts
You will remember now, what it's all about

Twist the end around, violation
It's burning deep and twisting under your skin
It scares you forever
The proof you will find in your dreams

[Chorus]


Till next time...

23.08.2010 Trivium - Dying in your arms -

"Dying in Your Arms" is a 2005 single written by Matt Heafy. It is the eighth track on Trivium's second album Ascendancy. The Ascendancy Special Edition also includes the music video for the song, the song being performed live and the single edit of the song. It is one of the few songs on the album that uses singing instead of screaming, with the exception of a short section in the middle of the song.

"Being with someone can be like an addiction. Gradually, you can't stand to be without them, everything you once enjoyed- you no longer care about, you become weak and dependent. Like a heroin addiction - you think you can live without it, but you're gradually dying inside and out. Break free." - Matt Heafy 

The audio track on the video is the single edit of the song, featuring differences from the album version such as 3:05 length (as opposed to 2:52 on the album), an added piano introduction, metalcore screaming vocals being replaced with clean vocals, increased vocal volume, and an audible tambourine during the chorus.

And the lyrics...


I'm wearing thin, wearing out, becoming weak
Holding hands with this rope
She's my self-destructive,
bleeding disease
The things that makes it hard to breathe
But if I shoved you far away
This addict just starved again, asphyxiated.

[Chorus]
And now I see it's you
That's tearing me (ensnaring me)
This is me dying in your arms,
I cut you out, now set me free

Lynched high above what used to be
In her gallows built for me
So I escaped cut this noose around my
neck, Let god be free to see the things you blinded me.
And I shoved you far away.
Now I live the life I dreamed of.
You're dead to me.

[Chorus]
And now I see it's you
That's tearing me (ensnaring me)
This is me dying in your arms,
I cut you out, now set me free

And now I see it's you
That's tearing me (ensnaring me)
This is me dying in your arms,
I cut you out, now set me free

You poisoned my life
So I take this knife
And I cut you out
Cut you out

[Solo]

And now I see it's you
That's tearing me (ensnaring me)
This is me dying in your arms,
I cut you out, now set me free

And now I see it's you
That's tearing me (ensnaring me)
This is me dying in your arms,
I cut you out, now set me free

set me free

set me free

set me free

set me free

set me free

set me free

18.08.2010 In Flames - The quiet place - 


Cum am prezentat in ultimul post pe Dark tranquillity, m-am decis sa raman in aceeasi scena metal si anume scena  Gothenburg metal si va prezint de data aceasta pe a 2 trupa reprezentativa din cele 3 mari nume suedeze(In flames, Dark tranquillity si At the gates). Chiar daca In Flames nu ar mai avea nevoie de nici o prezentare totusi o sa incerc o mica biografie a trupei.

In Flames este o trupa suedeza de melodic death metal, infiintata in 1990. Totusi primul album a aparut doar in 1993 - Lunar strain- album ce are ca special guest pe Mikael Stanne nimeni altul decat solistul de la Dark Tranquillity, pe Oscar Dronjak nimeni altul decat membru fondator HammerFall. Trupa a scos pe piata 9 albume si un DVD Live.


Piese prezentata aici The quiet place face parte de pe album Soundtrack to your escape(2004-2005). Piesa a ajuns pana pe locul 2 in topurile suedeze de muzica.


And the lyrics...


Spinning further, deeper
I know you're out to try me
I'm not in this to be a slave
Push the dirt, make me feel
Locate what swallows life
Night bird you build my world

..and then I close my eyes
..and then I close my eyes

Judge me now
Used to be afraid to let it show, bow down
A king in my own mind
Everything's in place so much brighter from today

Drown the monster
Make all bad dreams go away
Whatever it takes to keep running free
Open scars, the quiet place
All the bridges fall to the ground and you say you sacrificed

..and then I close my eyes
..and then I close my eyes

Judge me now
Used to be afraid to let it show, bow down, bow down!
A king in my own mind
Everything's in place so much brighter from today
A king in my own mind

Judge me now
A king in my own mind
Judge me now
A king in my own mind

Judge me now
Used to be afraid to let it show, Bow down, bow down!
A king in my own mind
Everything's in place so much brighter from today
A king in my own mïnd




Enjoy...Nu injurati prea mult piesa...:D sunt zeci de piese ce puteau fi alese, azi asta imi face placere sa o ascult...poate maine sa fie behind space

13.08.2010 - Dark Tranquillity - Misery's Crown -

Special edition Artmania Festival

Dark Tranquillity is a Swedish melodic death metal band from Gothenburg. They are the longest-standing band from the original Gothenburg metal scene, and are one of the most integral pioneers of the melodic death metal genre of music.


Fiction is the eighth studio album by the Swedish melodic death metal band, Dark Tranquillity and is also the last to feature Michael Nicklasson as their bassist before leaving in August 2008 and being replaced by Daniel Antonsson. The earliest release date for the album was set for North America on April 17, 2007. A limited edition of the album includes a bonus DVD with live songs, behind the scene footage, Character's "The New Build" promo video, and the "Focus Shift" video clip. In addition, the limited edition disc features an extended booklet layout, an alternate cover artwork, and includes also a free Dark Tranquillity patch.

The songs "Misery's Crown" and "The Mundane and the Magic" mark the first time since "Emptier Still" from Haven that vocalist Mikael Stanne utilizes clean vocals in addition to his usual growled vocals. Additionally, "The Mundane and the Magic" is the first song since "Undo Control" from Projector that features a guest female vocalist. The clean vocals are featured again on the next DT album We Are the Void, but not the female vocals.

And the lyrics...


All has now been broken
On streets I dare not walk
Freedom is an illusion
I build my fences high
If there was something out there
I've learned not to expect
There's a hundred million reasons
Not to care

Don't bring it
Don't bring it
Don't bring your misery down on me

Don't bring it
Don't bring it
Don't bring your misery down on me
Wear misery's crown

As always in these matters
You broke the deal of deals
And wasted what was given
To revel in your mess
I gave up all for nothing
I tried my best and failed
There's a thousand million reasons
Never to share again

This is how it all begins
This is how it all begins

Don't bring it
Don't bring it
Don't bring your misery down on me

Don't bring it
Don't bring it
Don't bring your misery down on me
Wear misery's crown

This is how it all begins

Come now
Come now
Come now

Don't bring it
Don't bring it
Don't bring your misery down on me

Don't bring it
Don't bring it
Don't bring your misery down on me
Wear misery's crown

12.08.2010 Sirenia - Beyond Life's Scenary - 

And this is a special edition dedicated to Artmania Sibiu 2010...


Sirenia is a gothic metal band from Stavanger, Norway which incorporates a mixture of gothic metal and symphonic metal, as well as extreme metal and death metal elements. The lyrics, written by Morten Veland, tell a loose conceptual story that began at Widow's Weeds, while he was still a member of Tristania.

The band uses melodic instrumentals, synthesizers, and distorted guitars with female vocals, male death vocals, clean male vocals, a choir and violins. The lyrics are concerned with human existence, emotion, and mental states.

2007, Monika Pedersen quit the band over musical disagreements. Her departure caused Sirenia to pull out of a planned European tour with Therion.

2008, Sirenia announced Spanish X Factor contestant Ailyn as their new female vocalist.

Beyond life's scenary is from The 13th Floor which is the fourth full-length album by the Norwegian Gothic metal band Sirenia and first with Spanish vocalist Ailyn. It was released on January 23, 2009 through Nuclear Blast. The album features guest appearances by Jan Kenneth Barkved (who also did some guest appearances on the album At Sixes and Sevens), and French violin player Stephanie Valentin, who adds to the sound along with the choir that has been a part of their sound since the very beginning. The album was released on three formats: CD, CD-Digi and Boxset. The boxset edition was restricted to only 500 copies worldwide.

And the lyrics...


There's a voice that speaks of time
There's a growing void inside
There are doors in life that I can't seem to find
There's a fire in my dreams
Fading day by day it seems
There's a narrow path beneath the fallen leaves

The years we tried to deny
Still haunt us now

There's a garden deep within
Where all life is withering
There's a fall and there's a wall and there's a sin
There are nails through my heart
All hope is torn apart
There are footsteps leading to my epitaph

The years we tried to deny
Still haunt us now

I see you stand forsaken
On a desolate and distant shore
You have been lost for so long
No one can ever take you back to how it was

Down, feeling down, falling down, sinking further down
Misery circles around

Wane, feel the pain, gone insane and this life's to blame
Seems like it's all in vain

Dark, the past was dark, the present's dark, the future seems so dark
Alike our hearts

Deep is the sleep that life keeps beyond it's scenery
What life sows, we'll never reap

The years we tried to deny
Still haunt us now
The pain still burns deep inside
As life flows by

08.08.2010 All that remains - Forever in your hands -

All That Remains is an American metalcore band from Springfield, Massachusetts, which formed in 1998. They have released four studio albums, a live CD/DVD, and have sold over 500,000 records in the United States alone. "Forever in Your Hands" is the third single from the album Overcome. The single contains the first full acoustic song by the band ever to be recorded in the studio. It is their second single to crack the top 20 in the Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, peaking at #17.

And the lyrics . . .


I know that I can stand my head high
Forget not where I fall
Still I find why and reason

Yet that conflict still filling me
Mistrust venom inside of me
I am not the man that you see
Just look inside me

Trust in me the way I trusted you
I know we could have done this together
If you believed in me like I believed in you
My heart would be forever in your hands

How I miss February still
Now that this becomes the moment
Of all our failures

Yet that conflict still filling me
Mistrust venom inside of me
I am not the man that you see
Just look inside me

Trust in me the way I trusted you
I know we could have done this together
If you believed in me like I believed in you
My heart would be forever in your hands


Trust in me the way I trusted you
I know we could have done this together
If you believed in me like I believed in you
My heart would be forever in your hands

07.08.2010 Slipknot - Snuff -

"Snuff" is a song by American heavy metal band Slipknot, Released as the fifth single from their fourth album All Hope Is Gone on September 28, 2009, the song peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, their highest charted single to date, surpassing Dead Memories.
The band first performed the song live at the October 11, 2009 performance in Kennewick, Washington of their All Hope Is Gone World Tour. It was met generally positive reviews from music critics who called it "a resounding ballad" from a dark, mysterious and heavy band.
It is the final single released from the band before the death of their bassist, Paul Gray.

"Snuff" was nominated for "Best Single" at "The Kerrang! Awards", where fans were allowed to vote unlimited times for their desired song, but lost to Liquid Confidence by You Me at Six.


On the background and themes of "Snuff", vocalist Corey Taylor said the following:“ This is the slow one. It's another personal one. Again, not naming names, it's about someone who helped me through a lot and I thought she felt the same way that I did and then she really let me down. At the same time, it was good that she did, because it was that final push to me figuring out myself. The lyrics are pretty self-explanatory. ”


Percussionist Shawn Crahan also said the following about the song:“ It's funny because everyone asks, 'Are you guys going to make another album like Iowa?' However, you're going to see that everyone will love a song like "Snuff." People are going to get into it because we all like to feel sad. Everyone can feel the pain that's in there. It's not forced upon you. You have it in there innately. Happy and sad are both always inside. When you hear a song like "Snuff" from a band like Slipknot, you can't help but be forced into that delirium. That's going to be a go-to song for you to just feel bad too."

And the lyrics...


Bury all your secrets in my skin
Come away with innocence, and leave me with my sins
The air around me still feels like a cage
And love is just a camouflage for what resembles rage again...

So if you love me, let me go. And run away before I know.
My heart is just too dark to care. I can't destroy what isn't there.
Deliver me into my fate- If I'm alone I cannot hate
I don't deserve to have you...
My smile was taken long ago
If I can change I hope I never know

I still press your letters to my lips
And cherish them in parts of me that savor every kiss
I couldn't face a life without your light
But all of that was ripped apart, when you refused to fight

So save your breath, I will not hear. I think I made it very clear.
You couldn't hate enough to love. Is that supposed to be enough?
I only wish you weren't my friend. Then I could hurt you in the end.
I never claimed to be a saint
My own was banished long ago
It took the death of hope to let you go

So break yourself against my stones
And spit your pity in my soul
You never needed any help
You sold me out to save yourself
And I won't listen to your shame
You ran away- You're all the same
Angels lie to keep control
My love was punished long ago...
If you still care, don't ever let me know
If you stïll care, don't ever let me know...

Hard is the day cram-full the way
Do not receive this!
Get down and pray
A new mascara will be gliding over your face
Seem so blue consciously blue
 

This thing will fall away

Stay on guard and wake me another day! x2
Until I sleep I dream of a strawberry girl
And her cute elfin pony whores at
Feastland-source
And than the mole just pulled the screen
Turning the tale into your nightmare
Frozen stare, empty stare.
Action, bye! Activate the pineal-gland!
No function! Your brain interruption's on.

When will you see unimpendedly
Underneath the shackle that hides you from reality?

There's an apple falling from the tree
Far away from this reality.
finding reasons, seeking Blueberry
try to find in this reality x3

Smile on your face but I
hover to get the reality am I mortal?
I even try to cover the tears
on my anaemic face
I try to cover the tears
will i drift in the now.
There's an apple falling from the tree

Far away from this reality
There's an apple falling from the tree
I'm already dead you can't kill me now

That is your designation.
Kill me now!
I'm already dead you can't kill me

04.08.2010 Bullet for my valentine - Tears don't fall -

Bullet for My Valentine are a Welsh heavy metal band from Bridgend, formed in 1998. The band is composed of Matt Tuck (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Michael Paget (lead guitar), Jason James (bass guitar, backing vocals), and Michael Thomas (drums). They were formed under the name Jeff Killed John and started their music career by covering songs by Metallica and Nirvana. Jeff Killed John recorded six songs which were not released; two of these tracks were reworked later in their career as Bullet for My Valentine. Financial difficulties dictated the name change, which was followed by a change in music direction. In 2002, the band secured a five-album deal with Sony BMG. The band has stated that their music is influenced by classic heavy metal acts such as Metallica, Iron Maiden, and Slayer. The band is part of the Cardiff music scene.

Bullet for My Valentine's debut album, The Poison, was released on October 3, 2005 in the United Kingdom and on February 14, 2006 in the United States to coincide with Valentine's Day hence their band name. The album entered the Billboard 200 in the US at number 128. It was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America. The band made appearances at the Download Festival and Kerrang! XXV, and undertook a US tour with Rob Zombie. Bullet for My Valentine's second studio album, Scream Aim Fire, was released on January 29, 2008 and debuted at number four on the Billboard 200. The band's third album, Fever, was released on April 26, 2010 and debuted at number three on the Billboard 200. The band has sold over two million albums worldwide.

Bullet for My Valentine's music has been described by critics as metalcore, heavy metal, and thrash metal. The band has cited being influenced by bands such as Metallica, Annihilator, Pantera, Machine Head, Iron Maiden, Testament, Stuck Mojo, Slayer, Judas Priest, and Megadeth. These bands inspire Bullet for My Valentine's "catchy vocals, aggressive riffs and melodies" according to Thomas. The band themselves consider their music as hard rock and describe their two albums, The Poison and Fever as having "super dark" tone with Tuck went on to state that "…we’re a hard rock band with metal influences, and I’ve said that from Day One.” Kirk Miller of Decibel Magazine praised the band for the effort in synchronised song structures. When asked of their views on their looks, members of the band have stated that they would not change their sound or image for a commercial approach; Tuck commented that, "Without sounding harsh, we're more interested in what our music sounds like than what our fucking hair looks like."

"Tears Don't Fall"  is the band's fourth single from their first full-length studio album, The Poison. The single was released on June 23, 2006 through Trustkill Records in the US. It is often considered to be the band's signature song.

According to Scott Alisoglu of Blabbermouth.net, "Tears Don't Fall"'s "twin lead work, thrashy romps, galloping tempos, and a hot solo launch the track out of mediocrity".

And the lyrics:    


Lets go!

With blood shot eyes I watch you sleeping
The warmth I feel beside me is slowly fading
Would she hear me if I calls her name?
Would she hold me if she knew my shame?

There's always something different going wrong
The path I walk's in the wrong direction
There's always someone fucking hanging on
Can anybody help me make things better?

Your tears don't fall
They crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home
Your tears don't fall
They crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home

The moments died, I hear no screaming
The visions left inside me are slowly fading
Would she hear me if I calls her name?
Would she hold me if she knew my shame?

There's always something different going wrong
The path I walk's in the wrong direction
There's always someone fucking hanging on
Can anybody help me make things better?

Your tears don't fall
They crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home
Your tears don't fall
They crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home

Oh! Yeah!

This battered room I've seen before
The broken bones they heal no more, no more
With my last breath I'm choking
Will this ever end I'm hoping
My world is over one more time

Lets go

Would she hear me if i called her name?
Would she hold me, if she knew my shame?

There's always something to be going wrong
The path I walk's in the wrong direction
There's always someone fucking hanging on
Can anybody help me make things better?


Your tears don't fall
They crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home
Your tears don't fall [tears don't fall]
They crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come
Better!

Your tears dont fall they crash around me
Her conscience calls the guilty to come home.

And the song...



Till next time...

Ultima piesa Trivium ce a fost lansata exclusiv pentru fanclub-ul lor TRIVIUMWORLD in 12 februarie 2010.  Este exclusiv pentru coloana sonora al jocului GOD OF WAR III. 

Piesa nu va face parte de noul album al trupei, dar este un foarte bun exemplu a stilului ce va fi abordat pe acest nou album.


And the lyrics:  



Take me into the seas
so i can clean off this disease

death will complete me
It's what I need

Take my evil
To the skies
Take my evil
All light dies

Shattering the skies above
I want to destroy all that you love
Shattering the skies above
I wont rest 'till I am drenched in blood

Take me into the seas
so i can clean off this disease

death will complete me
It's what I need

[Solo]

Take my evil
To the skies
Take my evil
All light dies

Shattering the skies above
I want to destroy all that you love
Shattering the skies above
I wont rest 'till I am drenched in blood


Take my evil
To the skies
Take my evil
All light dies


[Solo]

Shattering the skies above
I want to destroy all you love

(I'm Shattering)
(Shattering the skies above)


Shattering the skies above
I wont rest 'till I am drenched in blood
I'm shattering

Take my evil
To the skies
Take my evil
All light dies

Shattering the skies above
I want to destroy all that you love
Shattering the skies above
I wont rest 'till I am drenched in blood

Shattering the skies above
(Shattering the skies above)

M-am decis sa organizez o colectie de melodii de vara :) 

So Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet's gooooooooooooooo!

02.08.2010    -  Killswitch Engage - My curse -

Piesa este primul single si videoclip lansat de pe cel de-al patrulea album al formatiei americane de metalcore Killswitch Engage, album numit As daylight dies(2006)

Interpretarea piesei - "My Curse" pertains to the theme of dwelling on a passed loved one. The woman in the white dress in the field represents the man in black's life with her when he felt happy and free. The dark study is an embodiment of his depression after her death (To see you again/Dying, inside, these walls/ Dying, inside, these walls), and the books the man flips through throughout the video represent his memories of her. After her death, he dwells on her passing (I strain my eyes, hoping to see you again) and tries to find a way to be with her again (There is love burning to find you / Will you wait for me? / Will you be there?). Ultimately, his memories consume him; however, as his memories finally kill him, he is finally able to reunite with his love (And I see your face). The man's "curse" is that he is trapped in a life where he is unable to be with the woman he loves (This is my curse, the longing / This is my curse, time / This is my curse, the yearning)." - citat luat de pe wikipedia.org

And now the lyrics:

I watched you walk away
Helpless, with nothing to say
I strain my eyes
Hoping to see you again

This is my curse (the longing)
This is my curse (time)
This is my curse (the yearning)
This is my curse

There is love burning to find you
Will you wait for me?
Will you be there?

Your silence haunts me
But still I hunger for you

This is my curse (the wanting)
This is my curse (time)
This is my curse (the needing)
This is my curse

There is love burning to find you
Will you wait for me?

Still I want
And still I ache
But still I wait
To see you again

Dying, inside, these walls (2x)

And I see your face in these tears, In these fears
And I see your face...

There is love (8x)

 

Till next time...

In timp ce un prieten de al meu ascuta o maceta...http://impotrivatuturor.blogspot.com/ eu aprind o tigara, si diger o cafea cu lapte in simpla nepasare a mea, in simpla dezamagire a mea. Cum am incetat sa cred ca de unul singur nu pot sa schimb absolut nimic? Am ajuns sa cred ca nu e de datoria mea sa fac lumea mai buna. Si daca nu e de datoria mea sa fac lumea mai buna atunci a cui datorie e? Se pare ca in tara noastra de bastina nu se mai prea gasesc oameni care chiar ar putea sa schimbe ceva. Tot optimismul copilariei, toate sperantele copilariei mor odata cu maturizarea. O maturizare care nu vine singura, ci cu un mic cadou(bonus) ca la orice produs de cacat cumparat la teleshopping-ul fals, difuzat in mass-media. Si acest cadou nu e altceva decat o imputita indoctrinare, pe care fara sa vrem o capatam doar traind in aceasta societate comunista numita Romania! Si atunci ramanem toti cu niste vise. Asta e tot ce ne ramane! Pentru ca odata pusi in fata schimbarii, ne gasimi inapti in a face ceva. Si cum sa mai speram la vremuri mai bune, ca macar un vis din miile de vise pe care le avem se va implini, daca romanul se bazeaza pe ideea "las' ca trece". Romanul e multumit atat timp cat are ce bea si manca. E multumit atata timp cat are parcat bmw-ul chiar daca asta ar insemna sa imparta cu inca 7 oameni o garsoniera. E multumit sa aiba poze cu cativa euro in mana, cu cateva cutii de parfumuri false. E trist. Si de ce as mai incerca sa schimb ceva in tara asta cu oamenii astia de cacat, cat pot foarte usor sa plec dracului in alta parte. Singura problema e ca nu pot sa plec cat mai departe pentru ca desi suna sadic si masochist imi iubesc tara.



Cand merg pe strada si vad copii, copiii care in 10 ani urmeaza sa reprezinte tara asta, ma iau toti dracii. De ce? Ce vad? Vad copii, unul mai smecher ca altul, copii care sunt abonati la vestitele magazine "GET HIGH LEGAL", vad copii ce se injura, ce se bat. Astia nu mai sunt copii. Da intr-adevar societatea evolueaza. Dar aici nu e vorba de evolutie ci de regres! Si daca dovada minciunii e mizeria din noi cum sa te mai astepti la oameni drepti, la oameni corecti. Si cum ar putea sa evolueza la noi cand ideea de adevar si dreptate mai nou ti-i impune media. Si ce vad la televizor, pe internet sau la radio? Mizerii. Pe toate programele tv romanesti se dezlantuie o intreaga fabrica de gunoaie si de cacat. Ce emisiuni promoveaza mari entartainari romani? Pai niste exemple aleatori: Am auzit de o emisiune IN PUII MEI! nu stiu despre ce e vorba dar nici nu am curaj sa urmaresc macar 5 min. Si pentru ca tot se apropie revelionul, un oarecare post tv, nu dau nume, ne ofera ca si program de revelion asa numitul REVELION FARA NUMAR cu invitati unul si unul printre care ar putea enumera pe vijelie si toata gloata de la groapa de gunoi. Sa nu mai vb de tradati in dragoste,o perpetua defilare de tarani si smecheri! Sa nu mai vorbesc de programul tv dedicat labarilor si homosexualilor OTV. Si enumarile pot continua, dar ma opresc aici pentru ca imi este scarba. Ahh sa nu uit. Am primit un mesaj pe Dolce tv care suna cam asa: In urma solicitarilor dumneavoastra am inclus in grila programelor de baza si programul TARAF TV! Hai mah! Sa fim seriosi.



Si acuma ce credeti se mai poate schimba ceva la noi?

Lucruri serioase! :-|



Si pentru ca suntem romania si ne place sa credem ca romanul e destept, va prezit un catalog de zicale si proverbe foarte intelepte:

1. Pestele care lupta impotriva curentului moare electrocutat
2. Nici paine fara munca dar nici munca fara paine
3. PROSTIA NU ARE LEAC!
4. DACA PROSTIA AR DUREA AR FI PLINE SPITALELE!
5. Nu ne dam seama ce valoare are apa pana nu a secat fantana!
6. NU TOT CE STRALUCESTE E AUR!
7. Cel care scoate primul cutitul....de cutit va muri!
8. Ca marea linistita nu face marinari ISCUSITI!
9. Boala da gust sanatatii!
10.Tot tiganu is lauda calul!
11.E mai usor sa bagi intrerupatorul in priza decat sa impingi peretele cu priza spre intrerupator
12.Cel cu limba ascutita risca mereu sa isi taie beregata!
13.Intotdeauna branza pe gratis se afla in cursa de soareci!
14.ESTE ADEVARAT CA BANI VORBESC CEL MAI ADESEA EI NE SPUN LA REVEDERE!
15.Un chibrit in bezna noptii aduce mai multa lumina decat un relfectorizant in amiaza mare
16.Pacatul o clipa de placere si vesnica durere!

Guess Who - Locul potrivit



Guess Who - Locul Potrivit


Si pentru ca tot am deschis subiectul despre industria muzicala din Romania, spre bucuria mea, mai gasesc si cateva piese care merita sa fie ascultate. Un exemplu: Guess Who - Locul Potrivit.

Versuri:

Si noi stim c-a trecut mult timp
Va trece inca pe-atat presimt
In zece ani mai prind cativa ce mint,
Cativa ce tin sa plece, las’ ca trece,
Romanu-i facut sa-nnece amaru’ cu sange rece
Cand da de necaz petrece, c-o bere la rece se-ntrece
Zi-mi de ce furi da cat mai vrei sa furi
Nu vezi ca suntem multe guri
Si stim cu toti ce-nseamna sa-nduri,
Da cate cazaturi sa-nduri, cam cat te bucuri si cat injuri
La cate lucruri poftesti din jur si esti sigur ca n-ai destul

Da’ nu-i nimic , sunt consolat de mic
Tu esti constient ce zic io
Nu ne-am nascut in locul potrivit ,
Nu, nu, nu ne-am nascut in locul potrivit
N-am primit , am facut totul din nimic

Si-ai mei sunt sigur ca ai tai,
Nu m-au crescut cu vanatai,
M-au invatat cum sa n-o iau pe alte cai,
Mi-au explicat ca lume-ai rea si viata-i grea
Si tre sa fac cumva ceva,
Mi-au spus c-odata si-odata se duc
Si tre sa m-agit, ca tre sa ma lupt
Ca timpul trece dintr-un foc,
Ma plimba din loc in loc,
Ma schimba dupa noroc,
M-alearga doar pentru un singur vot
Lumea simte, vrea fapte nu cuvinte
Un simplu om sa fie presedinte

Da’ nu-i nimic , sunt consolat de mic
Tu esti constient ce zic io
Nu ne-am nascut in locul potrivit ,
Nu ,nu ,nu ne-am nascut in locul potrivit
N-am primit , am facut totul din nimic

Cautati-o pe google, youtube, 220.ro, trilulilu.ro, etc. si daca va place cumparati-o!

Mi-as dori din toata inima sa pot sa asist si la noi in tara la un concert de calitate. Si din pacate acest lucru e prea departe de realitate. De ce? Pentru ca la noi efectiv industria muzicala e la pamant. Trupele de underground sunt mult sub pamant si au mereu aceasi fani, fani care defapt sunt prieteni ai membrilor formatiei. Plus ca un band underground mai mult pierde decat castiga bani si asta numai din cauza "publicului de specialitate". Acesti oameni care atunci cand sunt pusi in fata intrarii si li se cere bani pe bilet se intorc frumos si pleaca. "Pai de ce sa platesc sa ascult o trupa care canta live( lucru care nu e usor de loc si necesita multa munca ) sau sa imi cumpar Cd-ul original, cand pot foarte bine sa ma duc la un concert gratis - nu conteaza cine canta- sau mai simplu sa imi scot piesele "da pa disi sau da pa torent" gratis si de banii care ii dadeam pe bilet pot sa imi cumpar parfumuri "originale" de la dealeri autorizati de pe strada, care vin la tine si te agreseaza verbal cu vesnica fraza: "Domnu cumperi un sprei?" Si atunci daca te zgarcesti la 20 de lei cum crezi ca supravetiueste acea trupa? Nu sa duca High life, ci doar sa isi imbunatateasca sound-ul sa ofere calitate. Si aici ma refer la orice trupa de orice gen care ofera ceva si nu doar niste parti furate puse cap la cap. Parti furate, cam asta inseamna industria muzicala din romania. La ce petarde de artisti sunt promovati ce sa mai si astepti. Si aici nu e vina "artistului" ci aluia care il asculta. Plus ca m-am saturat de aceleasi vesnice slagaruri cu sintagma "Ai plecat, m-ai lasat, te iubesc, imi tai venele daca nu te intorci" :-| Si aici ne intoarcem la un subiect mult mai dur: Gradul de educatie si de civilizatie a poporul roman! Si sa nu intelegeti gresit, ca NU ma consider un exemplu pentru societate DAR nu ma scufund in gloata. Stii vorba aia " nu e tara de ca**t ci oamenii de pe teritoriul ei. "
Asa ca tot ce vreau sa insinuez aici e sa nu va mai lasati condusi de altii, nu va mai integrati in turma, ganditi un pic mai mult inainte sa actionati, ascultati muzica si nu numai sa o auziti si sa dati din c*r pe ea si RECLAIM YOUR PLACE!
