I thought it might be interesting, given the varied musical tastes represented here, to have a thread where members post favourite or interesting or unusual songs/pieces/compositions they've come across in their time shuffling through this mortal coil.

I'll start us off with this curiosity: The Knife - Still Light -- CLICK HERE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjH5N3cPvIA)

I found this song fascinating, myself... have you heard? :cool:

[Nekroliun]

Well that was... Unique, in a good way thou, not much on the vocals thou, creepy, REALLY creepy, but its good in its own way.

If i had to choose a wierd song, id say chum drum bedrum? U may have heard of it, but still its really, different. I prefer the nightcore version of it thou

[Gonzo]

Damn... that was creepy interesting.

I think Bjork is out of the question :P


I saw this guy street performing some years ago while I was traveling and he blew my mind, I usually dont like beatboxing but he was incredible.

Isn't it? It's one of the most interesting, creepy songs I've ever heard. I'd loop this in the background of a haunted house. :cool:

That is indeed a weird song, and no, I hadn't heard it. Made me think of THIS ONE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GOZjlwIwfk) from Hot Chip. The song you post doesn't have to be weird, mind you... it could be any obscure, strange, interesting, unique, or just plain awesome (to your taste) song at all (Like THIS ONE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQMlMYbt4Uo) from the Crash Test Dummies). Just to share a bit of music that made you stop and listen. :cool:

All that having been said, here's another weird one. I kinda wish that Dio could have covered this... CLICK HERE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZK5tCY39x0)

Nice one. Some interesting sounds, and it got my toe tapping too.

My brother showed me that first, creepy song... it was actually being used for the soundtrack of a documentary on Jeffrey Dahmer, when he heard it. Seems fitting, somehow...

First thing that came to my mind was this instrument called waterphone... it's commonly used in horror movies. I got to play one once and they are creepy AF, really simple to build too.

1) Arch Enemy had me until Linda Blair starting...singing?
2) That Alter Bridge is actual cool, never listened to them before. It seems that may have been released just in time for the US election season.

Sweet! Clearly, while the wild wind continues to blow, Final Frontier is the disc to spin. :cool:

Only chose cause we're on the talisman nerfing discussion...I don't actually find myself often spinning this disc.
Actually rated it very low on the rank thread...on the top! (looking upside down :cool:)

[The Educated fool]

I have to be honest... that album was a grower for me. I like it now, but it took about 5 listens through the whole thing before I did. It's so very proggy!

[Aristo4]

I still don't think of it as bad, just not good as the others. 'Proggy' yes, but has some weak songs + many of them unnecessarily long/repetive.

[The Educated fool]

Unnecessarily long is pretty much my definition of "proggy." :cool:

[Aristo4]

You're not into Dream Theater then :cool:

[Nekroliun]

The final frontier is a really good album imo, there are better ofc but had it's good songs...

One unnecessary long song was "satellite 15... the final frontier" with it's 4 minute wtf is he saying at the beginning, but the last 5 mins are amazing

The alchemist, el dorado, the talisman, the man who would be king, when the wild wind blows, isle of avalon and starblind are great songs.

But mother of mercy and coming home ruined it for me... i didnt like them...

[The Educated fool]

You're not into Dream Theater then :cool:

Nope. Very little love for prog here. :cool:

[The Educated fool]

But mother of mercy and coming home ruined it for me... i didnt like them...

Coming home was one of the album's strongest tunes, to me... different strokes. :cool:

[Nekroliun]

Coming home was one of the album's strongest tunes, to me... different strokes. :cool:

I guess yeah... different tastes for different people!

Imo the best song would be either el dorado or the alchemist... i think the alchemist is the best cuz its fast paced, and das cool

But el dorado was long... and cool... and it had a story... HARD DECISIONS

Evening folks :)

All the new music you guys presenting here is probably good, yet completely unknown for me (apart of Maiden & Bruce solo stuff) because I am mostly listening the music from 70s - all kinds - blues, folk, prog rock, heavy, hard etc. Hardly listening new records - cause all good stuff was already recorded long ago :p So... I'll post you some great bands worth listening imho :)

Btw ive never ever been into a concert (due to the fact that bands rarely go near me, and that im poor af and cant travel... what is it like?

[Grim]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpjunMHda3U

If any of you dig Death Metal a little bit, give this album a try. They were quite good, it's a pity they had to split up.

Also it feels as it was made in a mental institution.

[RCarter]

Btw ive never ever been into a concert (due to the fact that bands rarely go near me, and that im poor af and cant travel... what is it like?

For me, there are two kinds of concerts: music shows, and church.

You get a music show when you have a band just kind of doing their thing. Sure, the crowd gets into it. Maybe the band gets into it a little, or maybe they are just going through the motions. Good times can be had at a music show. Sometimes you wonder why you came.

Now a church show is a bit different. The band is on point. Every note is the right note, and it is delivered with emotion and passion. The crowd is brought from their regular state of being, to a higher state of group consciousness. Band and audience enter a symbiotic relationship, that elevates each.

Sometimes you get a music show from a band, and next time you see them its church.

Live music is where its at.

Of course you face him a lot, you need no legendary soul nor Lady Luck on your side to get him. All you need is the right amount of ability to clear 3 objective on 255 quest. He is strong, you don't have to spend iron coin or ironite and pray for a stroke of luck, and you can use them to strenghten your eddies/toons.

I think it's also because his AI got better lately, after a update, and he seems to be really good on defense right now, I like his triple attacks, when they're not against my team, of course. :p

I don't think they've done anything with his AI. As far as I know, he never uses his Cleave attack. A little less powerful than his Slash (and no retrigger), but it's aoe and has a chance for heal block. That's one of his abilities that I use most often.

Bruce Dickinson is a way better singer, nobody can deny it and also an awesome frontman, he has a presence on stage than very few can hope to match. However Dee Snider is simply the best at what he does, in more than 10 years of gig and festivals I have never seen anybody else who could set on fire the audience as he did last year.

As for Europe... Started to listening hard rock pretty early - being a kid thanks to elder cousins... My adventure with Europe began in 1984 (already been fan of Maiden)... Here in Poland we were ''behind the iron curtain'' at that time - literally... Music from the so called ''West'' was very expensive and available on black markets... My uncle had the chance to go abroad pretty often - being truck driver... Once he bought me in one of the Swedish shops - a tape of ''new band called Europe''... He already knew that I am crazy about Maiden, and he wished to buy something ''heavy'' and shop assisstant gave him ''Wings Of Tomorrow''...

I have to say that very much liked the album, and when later on they become worldwide popular thanks to ''The Final Countdown'' here was real hysteria about them... Almost everyone at school wished to borrow the tape from me LOL...

Not a true fan as for albums post ''The Final Countdown'' (''Out Of This World'', ''Prisoners...'' etc.) Lately they seem to back to their roots with more heavy stuff... Seen them once they performed free open air gig in Warsaw back in 2010...


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-sa7V5q4yz8

Here you can watch how it was (the film done not by me though... I was in zone ''0''... All these people standing at the barriers were behind my back... Before me was just the stage and so the band :))

[HeadOnFire]

I haven't read through all the pages of this thread, so I'm not sure if somebody's mentioned them yet, but Iron Fire is an awesome (I think Danish) power metal band. They sound to me sort of like a combination of Iron Maiden, Dragonforce, and Disturbed. Here's a link to their song Kill for Metal from their "To the Grave" album. I think it's a pretty good song to serve as an introduction to the band. This song has kind of a slow intro, but explodes after 15 or 20 seconds





https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSTlvufOLMg

[HeadOnFire]

Oh! And how did I forget to mention?!

This is quite possibly my favorite song in the world. It is from Bruce Dickinson's Accident of Birth album and I think an explanation of its lyrics is necessary to fully appreciate what a masterpiece it really is. For the first part of the song Bruce sings of "hellriders" (obviously referring to the four horsemen of the apocalypse) coming along and doing various bad things to the world, while the chorus tells about the "Wheel of Dharma running out of time." When he finishes singing about the fourth hell rider, the song slows down and, after a brief melodic interlude and a reference to the silver surfer which is lost on me, he goes back to singing about the "Wheel of Dharma."

"Dharma" is a Buddhist term that refers to all the collective teachings of Buddha. Well, basically all Buddha ever taught was to be nice to each other. Murder, stealing, lying, war, rape, torture... just refrain from that stuff. Just don't do anything violent or deceitful, that's all Buddha ever taught. So Bruce's reference to the "Wheel of Dharma running out of time," alongside tales of the hell riders destroying society, is clearly him saying that the world is ending because we aren't being nice to each other. There is too much war and too many lies for us to go on living, but we can stave off the apocalypse, give our species a little more time and give the next generation a chance to turn it all around, if we can just be good to each other. The song is very fun and heavy at the beginning, and very emotional and uplifting at the end.

Good evening, everyone :)

As some reminiscence of latest events going on here, with some dedication obviously goes to... ;)

Iron Maiden - Falling (1969)


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujRRU_bZNUE

Enjoy!

P.S. I owned this record, yet I thought some day if I manage to meet Stevie in the near future - I will give it to him as the souvenir for remembrance the meeting and so Polish fans, so I did in 2000... Still have the digital copy ripped as wavs of the original CD in my collection and use to listen sometimes...

Cheers,

Best Maiden Song that they never wrote.

https://youtu.be/fQ77YEzem_IWow, I haven't listened to the Flots&Jets since ages and this song does sound good, although it has many elements from IM songs, but it's a nice tribute.

[Peppoah]

Their last album is worth checking out. Back to the old school. I'm looking forward to seeing them headline next years K.I.T. Festival in Lauda-Königshofen. I go there every year. It's about 30 minutes from my home and one of the coolest festivals I know.

[MoonShadow]

Hmm, I should give it a try, then, I like when old bands still got it.

...and I like most when new bands still play in the vein of the good 'ol days, and I am speaking now about bands I'm sure you saw them performing at the KIT festivals lately, bands like Enforcer, Portrait, In Solitude (RIP), Cauldron, Evil Invaders, Attic... to name but a few bands that came out with some good music. Nice for you to be so close to that festival area! :cool:

[Grim]

Cover Time!

Good evenin' all :)

In today's trip to past times in search of great and sometimes forgotten bands we go to Italy - the land of PLENTY of excellent prog bands like you would have found nowhere else...
P.S.: Lots of flute in this one, so any particular Jethro Tull fans here on the forum should be delighted ;)

Satyricon's a strong band... makes sense they'd do a sweet cover. :cool:

Always liked that Sabbath cover by Bruce a lot too... that was probably my favourite tribute album of all time.

Awesome tune Inishmore!

Sharing with all my friends the link to the music.

I also an intrigued to know who are you.... lol.

Again Inish, awesome stuff! After watching the video again, you are the guitar player, right?

Yes, I am the guitar player and (male) singer. Great to hear that some people like it.

[MoonShadow]

Hey, Inishmore, nice to see you playing in a (good!) band. Cool stuff. I've always thought that your nick is related to a Riot album.

I came here to say about the new Judas Priest album, "Firepower", which I found extremely good. I've just listened to it on the youtube and it really rocks. This band is like wine: older gets better.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Isu5JpXNzxI

[scott-5496]

Really liking the new Priest too - got it on Spotify and added several tracks from it to my Priest playlist! Some ace tunes on this - like the singles a lot and Spectre is a good one. Only heard it a few times but already sinking in.....

[Ironstyle]

*Sigh* Seems a lot of people are liking the new Priest album. I tried so hard to get in to them over the years but I always preferred Halford's first two solo albums to Priest. But you guys, my guitar player and even my brother are all telling me it's good...

On another note, new Visigoth is out and is great! Also, check out a band called Night, from Sweden. Their new(er) album called Raft of the World is randomly hella good.

[Ironstyle]

Oh, and speaking of Riot, Riot V has a new album coming out in April!

[Grim]

[scott-5496]

Vicious Rumors - Digital Dictator - 30 years old (!!)

Been going back to the 80s for a few weeks now and this album was a shred essential back in the day - got into them through hearing the first Vinnie Moore album on Shrapnel (he played on the first album by VR). Carl Albert (RIP) was a top singer and these guys are a top band. Kind of like heavy Judas Priest style (Painkiller) - power metal I guess if it had a label attached to it. Very melodic though and loved all the solos too. They had a not so strong patch after Carl was killed (car accident) but then got back to the core sound with the last few albums which are very good - not quite as high marks as the first four or five though!

Digital Dictator and the Self Titled that followed are my faves of theirs.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpbjTaqY_WY

[Cefiar]

Procession's Doom Decimation is also getting some high rotation on my playlists, particularly tracks like One by One They Died:

Gave this a spin on Spotify - really very good. The vocals are maybe not the strongest but the music is great. Vocals I can get used to I think so nice find there!

[scott-5496]

If you like Procession, then do give Argus a try - better singing I think and the music is great. Another smallish band no one had heard of - you can get them on Spotify.

[Cefiar]

Part way through Argus's From Fields of Fire and liking it so far. Thanks Scott! Great recommendation.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTfgZVRanS0

[scott-5496]

Only just discovered them myself a couple of weeks ago. They have some great tracks and overall each album is actually a great listen. Almost instantly liked them on first listen of each album. Not sure why I missed them for all these years but Spotify is great for recommendations. Quite a bit of Maiden in their sound - also a little bit of Baroness at times - if you have not heard Baroness give their Blue or Red albums a spin. Have you listened to much Kadavar? Another great band I stumbled on through Spotify and seen them a couple of times now. Same with The Sword - now one of my fave bands and that was another Spotify recommendation - listen to any of their albums but for me High Country is ace but try this one for a starter:

Fucking yes! I dig JSBS. Gotta love the crossover vocalists from/to Riot as well. Rhett Forrester was awesome, and gotta love Todd Michael Hall's voice. He's a good singer for Riot.

[scott-5496]

Yeah - really old school style but I like it as it is done well. Good singer and good band too. Riot are another fave of mine but only just got into them over last few months.

You're in for a treat, for sure. I've been listening to Riot for about...damn...12 years now at least. I'm starting to feel old...Immortal Soul (the return of the Thundersteel line up and Mark Reale's final album) is really good. One of their best. Riot V is a continuation of Riot after Mark's death. They keep alive the Riot sound that Mark Created.

Yeah, I have to say that I like the classic metal sound and the singers have always been decent too - I happened on them again through Spotify as I have been a Vicious Rumors fan since they started and Riot were a Spotify recommendation - they were not wrong. Great stuff. Great for in car music while driving!

Agreed. VR is a favorite of mine as well. You should also check out Night. Their third album Raft of the World is surprisingly good. Savatage is always good. Airbourne and Enforcer are also greats if you like that old school sound. My list could go on, so I'll just stop there.

I haven't done Spotify at all. I just go to Google Play and check out the suggested artists there based on what I'm searching for. Found some awesome stuff there.

Oh, and a great way to learn of some new old school sounding bands is to check out the Youtbe channel: NWOTHM Full Albums. I've come across great things there.

I'll give a night a check too - also just got a note on email that Riot are playing Glasgow soon doing Thundersteel annoversary tour! Result, for me so going to go to see them then I think.

Finally! Another person that knows this band! I enjoy the vocals personally and musically they are brilliant. I too was surprised when I found out they were Finnish. I'm hoping for a new album from them soon. It's been awhile since they've updated their website and since I don't speak Finnish, finding out any reliable information is a bit hard for me.
