Beatles Movie

Let me first start off by saying I can't tell if the is a children's movie or a stoner movie. The type of humor in the movie is fairly childish, although their are some moments when their would be a dirty joke or too, but they're subtle enough to where it could still be in a child's movie. I would also like to note that the movie seemed just a tad bit racist toward Indians. Actually scratch that, it seems really racist against Indians. But nonetheless the movie is still really weird and a little hard to follow. I personally found it to be a little bad, however I am a huge fan of British humor, but this movie just was not all that funny in my opinion. The main chick totally looked like a dude.

Death.fm

Death.fm is defiantly my favorite radio station. It plays the type of metal that fits my taste, which is: melodic, dark, ambient and the occasional fast-paced guttural death metal. I have to credit Death.fm with introducing me to metal. I remember as if it was yesterday, I was in 7th grade, being bored in my keyboarding class. I was scrolling through the iTunes radio stations, and I came across Death.fm. At first I was a little skeptical of the music, having only listened too the mass fabricated pop music of the masses(96.7 which I hate with a passion)the intense, dark and melodic sound was completely new to me. At first the blast beats from the drums sounded off, it sounded as if the snare was constantly out of rhythm. But the more I listened to it, the more it started to fall into place with the rest of the band. That was when I started to hear the music as a whole, and when I found my musical soul mate.

I have also recently discoverer that death.fm is now censored by the school internet. I waiting for the day when the aisd web filter will start saying "category: fun; happiness; joy; free speech, is not allowed."

What I am currently listening too

I have been recently enjoying the lovely sound of the Australian Doom Metal band Mournful Congregation. Its a nice change from the usual ultra-fast pace of my usual death and black metal. I love Mournful Congregation's slow pace, it gives it a nice heavy sound while also still containing some nice melodic elements. I would post a video of them, but I am using the schools ultra-censored internet so I can't. Although I will leave you with a song to look up if you are interested. Remembrance of the Transcending Moon is a good one. The average length of Mournful Congregation's songs tend to be at around 10 min. If you enjoy the ambient element of music, then you might find this band enjoyable.

The Beach Boys are an okay band. In my opinion they sound a whole lot like the Beatles, they have that same pop-rockish sound. Although if I had to choose between the two, I would have to go with the Beatles because they have a sound that I find more enjoyable as opposed to the Beach Boys' ultra-happy "ooooooowoooo" kinda thing they got going on. However, I do think that the album pet sounds is one of their better albums, mostly because its something different besides the same old surfing, cars, and girls.

What I am currently listening too

I've recently been getting back into the old school Metallica stuff. Which constitutes as anything before the Black Album. I have to say that Metallica really started to go down hill once Cliff Burton died.

I have also been working on some of my black metal album, I'm currently still in the process of writing up all the musical parts. I have most of the guitar and bass down, but drums is a completely different story. And don't even get me started on lyric writing. I should hopefully have something recorded and finalized by the end of the next month.

Rolling Stones

I would have to say that I prefer the Beatles over the Rolling Stones. The Rolling Stones just sound really loud and obnoxious, they're guitars are way to loud and the solos are way too long and boring. They sound like just a bunch of muddy interments that have been slapped together to try to make music. I thought the stones would of been good, considering how it seems that almost everyone seems to think that they are really good, but I would have to agree with Mr. A on this one, the stones are over-rated. The stones also don't really seem to be very innovative in terms of music writing, all of their songs sound the same: loud and muddy.

Stuff im currently listening to

Alright, so I have started to re listen to a lot of the older British shit. I just love the dark ominous sound that is signature to our imperialist friends, the Brits. I've specifically been listening to the two bands Asphyx and Bolt Thrower. I love the doom metal breaks that seem to be in almost every Asphyx song. It is a nice slow, calm before the storm, impending doom sound. Now I like Bolt Thrower for their theme. They sing about the horrors of war, historical battles and wars, and manage to have some pretty kick ass guitar riffs thrown in as well. Now I'll leave you people with an example from each. Enjoy.
