So today I'm posting a very unique band, in my opinion. That would be CAKE. I say unique because I literally cannot think of another band who sounds quite like they do. It takes a bit to get used to the singer's method of singing, but his weird monotone-ish style works for what he's doing. I like their music, but I find meaning or a one-shot story ( Read more... )

So I have a meme idea! I will post a recording of me singing a Christmas carol. Other people record themselves singing along to it and upload it. By Christmas, I will take all the tracks uploaded and combine them into one group carol. Would anyone be interested in this and, if so, any opinion on carols? I default to Silent Night, but that's becasue ( Read more... )

So I skipped out on the last edition because I was busy as fuck on Monday and Tuesday, but I will make up for it now by posting two editions for the price of one! Some may note that I have been avoiding chat as of late; see the first sentence. I'm essentially doing an entire 16 week course in four days.

Actually, skip the essentially. That is what ( Read more... )

So I may find myself back in the States in a month if I don't find another job here. Unfortunately, I have the double whammy of not being able to continue my certification (classes start after I'm let go) and there's virtually no jobs in the area. So here's my question.

How 'bout we go back to your place. ;DOr, in seriousness, I'm looking for ( Read more... )

So, because Iris was in it as part of the ensemble, I went to a high school production of A Christmas Carol. It was surprisingly better than I thought it was going to be; the guy they had playing Scrooge pretty well floored me. Good show all around, though some parts dragged on a bit, I thought. Aside from that, work continues to be stressful, but ( Read more... )

I'm just going to cut straight to the chase on this one, because I'm tired and stressed and work isn't helping and I'm trying to cut down on pop consumption and basically I am making myself as cranky as possible.

So the next band is The Zutons! More of a modern alt-rock sort of band. I don't really have too much to say about them, except that for ( Read more... )

So Resonance of Fate has a hell of a learning curve, but once you learn, the game gets incredibly fun. I can't remember the last time a game actually made me stategize this much; FFT challenges are the closest I can get, and that was years ago. More than anything, though, I'm feeling the urge to app somebody from it. Leanne is adorable and juuuust ( Read more... )

So, if people know me, and I would hope that you do, you should know that I love music. (Not as much as some, but I didn't make that argument.) Therefore, I'm going to make a few entries, at least five, with the goal of introducing others to bands I found in 2010 and summarily enjoyed the hell out of. Each entry will also have a song I enjoyed from ( Read more... )

Holy crap.

That just put a stunned smile on my face.
