Just wanted to ask when you turned into an Emo-Kid, but... well. :)

I was insta-invited to a collegue's birthday party. I was not at work today, and a work mate told me. I have no present for her, so we have to make it up with more or less cheap champagne... :upset:

[JohnXDoe]

Hey guys. Just checking in to thank Med, Moz, and Spat Out for the little pep talk they gave me last week about writing reviews for myself and the music and forgetting the rest, like how many people will read it and petty criticisms. It was really motivational. I just completed my latest review and am so happy with it I'm just, well, happy. I feel a great deal of satisfaction. So thanks a lot guys. This is starting to be fun. As it should be, I guess. And it's getting easier. And the less I have to work, the better. :p

So thanks guys. And see you around the boards...

resubmitted RATM review :)

[DesolationRow]

Morrissey, you listen to classical music. :cool:

Who are some of your favorite composers? I'm a big fan of Bach, because his Brandenburg Concertos are beautiful.

[masada]

Stravinksy is where it's at.

And maybe Debussy.

[Jawaharal]

Stravinksy is where it's at.

And maybe Debussy.
I like contempary orcehstral music best. Quincy Jone's Austin Powers song (can't remeber real name) is fantastic if you hear the full thing. And the piano solo is just incredible.

Yep, I've done all of that, sadly.

I confess I know nothing about classical music, I just like the more melodic stuff. Composer doesn't matter, time period doesn't matter, country doesn't matter. If I had to pick a favourite piece it would probably be Rimsky-Korsakov's "Scheherazade" or Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring". But I am very unsophisticated in my knowledge of classic music, I sorely confess.

I believe it is called "Soul Bossa Nova" or something. It has Bossa Nova in the title, I'm pretty sure. And yes, it is a great track.

I don't like a lot of modern orchestral music because I find it to be less melodic and more focused on bombast or experimentation, but perhaps I'm looking in the wrong places.

[Dave de Sylvia]

You haven't heard 20th Century classical until you've studied one of its more self-indulgent, amelodic pieces for months on end.

[morrissey]

21st century classical is worse my son.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Son? I thought you were gay.

No 21st Century classical for me, mate. It's 1490-1600 or nothing for me at this stage.

You know you should send me that Arctic Monkeys album, I've been meaning to get into Baroque but it has slipped me by.

[Dave de Sylvia]

The Arctic Monkeys are more like post-Dohertian romanticism I think

Yeah but go to NME.com (I know) and stream the Sway album. It's like yeah

[Killtacular]

The reason why I'm wondering is because I always post my charts in my journal and then proceed to write about how I'm misunderstood in a world of negatives and how I'll never find happiness and how I don't know if people are holding on to what they've got and I'm so tired and I'll be holding on to this sweet love and I feel walls and then proceed to write terrible poetry.

The only classical I listen to is what I play for my orchestra. I really love most of what we play, but never listen to it outside of school for some reason. However, I can do something about it.

[Amit]

Scheherazade is simply incredible =)

[Liberi Fatali]

I really don't like this new(ish) Rammstein album. :-/

[The Stig]

Rosenrot? I have Reise, Reise, and I like it. Is it similar to that or a different sound altogether?

[Liberi Fatali]

Yeah, Rosenrot. After hearing Amerika, I kind of got put off from checking out Reise Reise, so I have no idea what its like compared with Reise, Reise.

But I must say, it just doesn't feel like the Rammstein of old to me. Not enough simple heavy guitar riffs, not enough of the rough and rowdy voice.

[The Stig]

I see. I honestly haven't heard much other stuff besides the things on Reise, Reise, so I can't compare to the older stuff. Thanks, anyhow.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Rosenrot was a bit of a disappointment to me too, although the Meshuggah mix of Benzin makes everything alright again :cool:

[Damrod]

Never really liked Rammstein to be honest. I only like about... 3 or 4 of their songs

[Dave de Sylvia]

But Germans love Rock Aus Deutsch :confused:

[innerdark]

has anybody here ever heard of the travels, they're a small glasgow band

[Liberi Fatali]

Nope, and if I judged bands purely bases on their band names, I don't think I'd like them.

Weird, I was just looking at allmusic and their review for Kenny G. - Breathless said stuff like this:
Whether you're into pop or jazz, Breathless is unlistenable. And Breathless isn't bad because it's a pop album or because it's commercial; it's bad because of its complete lack of soul, substance or creativity.
And yet they gave it a ranking of four stars. :-/

Here is the review (http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&token=ADFEAEE47E18DB49AD7E20C39D3040F6A07AFF0CCD7C ED870A287558D9953947990077E850BB8A92ECB622F62CFAA1 29F00E43D1D5EF49FEDC663B718AE4A466323F49167958&uid=CAW010602010726&sql=10:kpdkyl18xpbb~T1)

"The moon is much larger than it appears to be. This is worth remembering because next time you are looking at the moon you can say in a deep and mysterious voice, 'The moon is much larger than it appears to be,' and people will know that you are a wise person who has thought about this a lot."

Rammstein frightens me. But I was amused at reading about them in my German text book in school.

[DesolationRow]

That rocks so hard. The only band I've ever seen in a textbook before was....you guessed it- The Beatles.

Edit: Those old Klondike bar commercials are awesome, in a lame, miserable kind of way.

[ocelot-05]

I saw a picture of Korn in my eight grade science book. It was an article about crap music, just kidding. It was about how you can damage your ears with headphones, being to close to speakers at concerts, etc. I just think it's funny how they singled out Korn. Noise pollution.

I shudder to think of the possibilities.

Worse.

(and nice touch on the band names, you know me so well :lol: )

[Liberi Fatali]

Seriously though, I'm surprised you don't listen to Bryan Adams. I mean he's popular and he's Canadian.

[morrissey]

He's one of those artists where I know and enjoy the singles but would never buy an album. If he's on the radio I won't turn it off.

[Liberi Fatali]

"hWh-ell I say that there Bryan Adams is one to make Canada prowd. Isn't he, eh? It's aboat time they recognized him for his effoots."

Errr, sure.

"Yeaap, pass the maple syrup and the alcool will ya?"

[morrissey]

That's a Kiwi accent, eh? I always wondered what you fellows sounded like.

- hhhhhhwhite/hhhhhwell etc. is an American thing, and quite annoying
- prowd - yeah I guess that's how we pronounce it
- aboat - I say "a bout" as in "a boxing bout"
- effoorts = wtf

And maple syrup is awesome eh :mad:

[Liberi Fatali]

Hey, my old Canadian Science teacher used to say "hwh-ite" all the time.

Yeah you do.

I would say 'aboot' actually, but I felt I was getting into more Irish or Scottish accents there.

Effoots* :caneng101: I actually just added that in there to further emphasis my main theme in that post.

[pulseczar]

one thing that bothers me around here is that people say 'gar"aahhh"ge' or 'Nirv"ah"na'. But the most intolerable thing is when people here (but not everywhere in Canada, just in the desolate prairies apparently) say "bunny hugs" instead of "sweaters" or "hoodies". I just have to lay someone out whenever bunny hug comes out.

Do you mean as opposed to the British pronunciation of garage? I can't type it out, but yeah I pronounce it like the French word with an anglophone accent, if that makes any sense. And Nirv-ah-na as opposed to what, Nir-vannnn-ah? I think I'm guilty of both your pronunciations, but it's hard to understand exactly what people are getting at through text. But bunny hugs are just wtf.

And Whack! is pretty awesome you must admit B-]

Plus in the In Bloom video they made the TV host say "Nirvahna" that seems like some sort of metaphor for how they were misperceived in the media. If that video is where you got that idea then yr. wrong.

[pulseczar]

Of course they did, the pronounciation key for 'Nirvana' in the dictionary is the same as 'father'. Just because Kurt Cobain couldn't play guitar doesn't mean he couldn't read.

Agreed. But you get usually more fries if you get the regular kind. They line up and don't go in there all in a wad, so there is less empty space in the carton, meaning more potato for your money. It pisses me off that they got rid of the onion petals, though, as the southwest sauce went away along with them.

Heh I think you've overthought this. We didn't have onion petals here in Canada, I don't think. Well I don't really know, I've only gone to Arby's once or twice in the past few years. :(

OCPD helps you figure out how to stick it to the man. Anyhow, they were like onion rings, but more like flakes of onion rather than rings. Quite good.

That's because your name is Library. But old-school Batman with Adam West and Burt Ward is the ****. As for Boston Legal, though, I saw it a time or two a while ago and completely failed to like it. Are there any Rescue Me fans in here? I loved that show, but my college doesn't give us FX, so can't watch it anymore.

Ooooohhhhhh, gear talk. I just decided a few days ago that it's time for a new amp, I like that looks of that Marshall MF350. :) I'll just need a little time to work up the cash.

It runs about $1449 USD for the head alone. It's sweet though, Matt Bachand from Shadows Fall used it before they switched to Krank. It's built for metal, but this thing has great clean tones too.

Where are you at? I live in Ontario and they have Lifeblood in pretty much every shop, and Everything Must Go was easy to find the first time I looked for it, I bought it then and haven't really been keeping track of its stock since. The Holy Bible original version (not the deluxe) has been next to impossible to find. I'm stuck with a downloaded version but I really want to buy it.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Why would you buy the original version and not the expanded one?

[morrissey]

It costs too much. Roughly $45 CAD is more than twice a normal album price, screw that.

I live in Saskatoon (but born and raised in the mean streets of Toronto :cool:). Lifeblood is easy to find here, as is their Greatest Hits. I've never seen an original Holy Bible, I got the pimpin' edition. As for everything else Manics, it's been nearly impossible to find. But yeah, Toronto has some great places to find CDs.

Oh, and the Holy Bible special ed. only cost me 26.99 :cool:
