Turtlestlker: Music And Literature

linkinmuse 09.06.13	The Resistance by Muse and the book 1984 by George Orwell. But no one likes that album except me. :
Relinquished 09.06.13	all the christian rock bands and the bible
ButteryBiscuitBass 09.06.13	Manic Street Preachers - The Holy Bible - The Tortue Garden.
Turtlestlker 09.06.13	I liked the Origin of Symmetry by Muse but never went any further with them then that record. I'd also like ovoid christian rock, unless of course I can somehow use MewithoutYou to link to something.
SeaAnemone 09.06.13	emery and twilight
PunchforPunch 09.06.13	Summoning and LOTR
Turtlestlker 09.06.13	I figured I could do a lot with Lovecraft but completely forgot about LoTR.
laucha1266 09.06.13	call of ktulu maybe?
Turtlestlker 09.06.13	Also it doesn't have to be explicitly in lyrics, it could also be something similar in tone.
TheSpaceMan 09.06.13	Dude Animals was made for that assignment lol
MikeC26 09.06.13	Yeah that Muse album was really weak, especially when compared to magnum opus it was based on.
DominionMM1 09.06.13	david bowie- diamond dogs mastodon- leviathan
SpiritCrusher2 09.06.13	check this out http://www.lebmetal.com/2009/10/hp-lovecraft-in-metal-music/
jefflebowski 09.06.13	thrice - vheissu - thomas pynchon
TheSpaceMan 09.06.13	fucking Leviathan by Mastadon
SmersH 09.06.13	Porcupine Tree - Blank Planet
sleepdirt 09.06.13	Earth's Hex: Or Printing in the Infernal Method was heavily influenced by McCarthy's Blood Meridian. The songs are named after chapters in the book for crissakes!
Parallels 09.06.13	TOM SAWYER - RUSH fom Mark Twain ftw No Exit by Fates Warning took their title from Jean Paul Sartre's book No Exit Out of the Silent Planet is both a song and album by King's X based on C S Lewis' Space Trilogy Also I've heard Placebo have been influenced by Bret Easton Ellis but I would've never believed it until he directed their music video recently "Stranger in a Strange Land" and "The Number of the Beast" were book titles by Robert A Heinlein, and "To Tame a Land" is based from Frank Herbert's Dune
c0ffee 09.06.13	The title, "Everything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt" by mewithoutYou is a Vonnegut reference, and the lyrics of the song contain a snippet from a John Donne poem. mwY draws a lot from literature, aside from all the biblical lines. The Team Sleep song, "Tomb of Liegia" is in reference to an Edgar Allan Poe short story, "Ligeia."
Parallels 09.06.13	Iron Maiden wrote Stranger in a strange land, number of the beast, and to tame a land in case that wasnt obvious
Mongi123 09.06.13	Jimmy Eat World- Goodbye Sky Harbor
c0ffee 09.06.13	A few references pointed out from mwY's last album: http://youresayingthesamething.tumblr.com/
DrMaximus 09.06.13	Alesana's newest album is based on the Divine Comedy.
BlueW 09.06.13	Murakami novels reference shitloads of sweet jazz and classical music
Turtlestlker 09.06.13	On The Wall...Meh don't care all too much for the album. Not too sure on using Leviathan but yeah, it's pretty obvious I'm not too sure why I didn't think about it earlier. No Exit seems interesting as does that series from C.S Lewis. Which books by Thomas Pynchon influenced Thrice? I never heard of him before(Not too well versed in literature.)
Nagrarok 09.06.13	"Stranger in a Strange Land" and "The Number of the Beast" were book titles by Robert A Heinlein, and "To Tame a Land" is based from Frank Herbert's Dune And yet you forget to mention RIME OF THE ANCIENT MARINER
Turtlestlker 09.06.13	And I was thinking maybe doing Godspeed You!Black Emperor-F#A# for The Stand or The Gunslinger
Havey 09.06.13	Nowhere could the interrelationship between literature and music be seen more clearly than during the Romantic era. Composers had diverse influences that were often as literary as they were musical. Poetry, philosophy, drama...
InfamousGrouse 09.06.13	for lovecraft check rudimentary peni's 2nd lp cacophony
qwe3 09.06.13	rudimentary peni=lovecraft
Mort. 09.06.13	Alexisonfire did a bunch of songs inspired by kurt vonneguts work
