Re: Can we just do another music thread?
Gareth Emery came to town on Saturday night. The show was a freaking blast, and they had a coloring contest for a meet and greet with him before his set. I didn't win, but how often do you get to say you went out to the club and got to color with crayons?

Re: Can we just do another music thread?
Hey, anyone listened to Death? The proto-punk band, not the death metal band? They're pretty amazing! Only ever recorded 7 songs, which were only properly released in 2009, after being recorded in 1975-ish

At the heart of all beauty lies something inhuman, and these hills, the softness of the sky, the outline of the trees at this very minute lose the illusory meaning with which we clothed them, henceforth more remote than a lost paradise.

Re: Can we just do another music thread?
Is it just me or do a number of their songs sound, or have parts that sound, exactly like they could've been written by another, more famous, band. You're A Prisoner has decidedly Blue Oyster Cult sections, the first 2/3rd of Where Do We Go From Here could be taken straight from a White Stripes album, Keep on Knocking sounds a bit like Hendrix. Doesn't really mean anything, just found it interesting.

Re: Can we just do another music thread?
I think my favorite song's Where Do We Go From Here, but the new one they put out yesterday is pretty great too. Also supposed to be a documentary coming out this year titled A Band Called Death.

Re: Can we just do another music thread?
I approve heartily. I had ridiculously high expectations, and while it sounded absolutely nothing like what I expected, it's still rather awesome. Especially the 13 minute version.

Re: Can we just do another music thread?
I found this gem recently. The song's cool but the crowd is OMG. If I had to play in front of a crowd that big then I would need to be at least halfway in the bag to mitigate the jitters, even if I was a seasoned performer (which I'm not).

Re: Can we just do another music thread?
I thought I'd take a moment here to discuss my own band's newest single, Time Traveler. Sort of a synth-rock sort of thing, pay what you want including nothing. Wondering what people think and figured the music thread would be better than taking up space with its own thread.

Re: Can we just do another music thread?
Saw this massive band called Mother Falcon today. Talking to one of the violinists after the show, he gave me a card with a QR code to this video, and I thought someone else might dig it as much as I do: Just to See Her Smile.

Re: Can we just do another music thread?
Seems not. The link pulls up the video for me, but trying to run it gets a 'uh..what? I don't know what kind of file you're trying to run' notice from my browser. This appears to be the normal Youtube.
So, assorted music geeks of the Playground, can I get your opinions? I'm considering going to the Warped tour when it stops by my city this year, because I like I Fight Dragons. However, I know absolutely *nothing* about any of the other acts slated to be on the tour, and as going to see one group out of 80-some acts on the tour seems a little bit silly..
http://vanswarpedtour.com/bands Take a look at the band list and let me know if any of those names are familiar to you, preferably for being good?

Re: Can we just do another music thread?
So I recently listened to Godspeed You! Black Emperor's Slow Riot for a New Zero Kanada, and I wanted to know what the playground thinks:
Greatest album of all time, or... Greatest album of all time?
YOU DECIDE.

Re: Can we just do another music thread?
Lift Your Skinny Fists and Slow Riot are fine and all but F♯ is the only GYBE album I bother to listen to anymore.
