So this is sort of an add on to the last post. It technically isn't in the "E"s but the lead vocalist from edguy has been doing his side dream project for many years now called avantasia (the metal opera) where he has been teaming up with many of the legendary metal vocalist and musicians from other bands including the likes of Geoff tate(queensryche), klaus meine(scorpions), Tim "ripper" owens (iced earth/judas priest etc..) Byff byford(saxon) Hansi kursch(blind guardian), Marko heitala(nightwish), john oliva(savatage/trans siberian orchestra), Michael Kiske(helloween) among so many others.

Listening to the audiobook of Necropolis again, mostly because it's one of the best books in the Gaunt's Ghosts series, but also because I'd read The Vincula Insurgency which is a prequel set on during Ghostmaker after the Voltemand battle. In it, though, the character Baffels is referred to as a sergeant, but he wasn't promoted until Necropolis, there's even a sub-plot where Gaunt is tempted to promote Milo as he showed a lot of leadership qualties instead of Baffels but promotes Baffels because he can't promote the youngest Ghost who just officially joined the regiment and I was right lol

So much so even the veteran Anargrin is forced into desperate speculation. But worst of all: drive him into desperate measures. Measures which drives Anargrin to wonder; does the ends, justify the means?

Some bands come along that a good but not ground breaking enough to really focus on, the next part of my collection starts of with one of these-FALCONER

i only have a couple albums, but they are a good listen.








As a little bonus since this was such a small collection i also hit the "best of" FAUN the german folk band

Brain Freeze from Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge not as familiar with this as Grinder or Hell March but this is awesome, too. Makes me want to buy Red Alert 2 again and play it but can't find it on Steam or GOG, where could it be otherwise?




Also Grinder, too.

Another one shot from 2002-an amazing german thrash band that apparently did nothing else.


The sound is like metallica's "kill'em all" style raw thrash with lemmy from motorhead on vocals.



It is pretty obscure so good luck finding a video outside of just buying the album.

Hmm, whenever I post here I wonder of I've already posted about this song or songs before as I do listen to the same songs repeatedly, but oh well. One of the most underrated Foo Fighters songs in my eyes. This and The Pretender, which everyone seems to have forgotten. Echoes, Silence, Patience and Grace was an alright album, but The Pretender was frigging awesome as frig. Epic music video, too.






Automatically Appended Next Post:
Also began listening through all the Modest Mouse songs on my phone to try to find something different from Dashboard (which helped me through my mother's recent death) and Float On (which helped me through my nana's death who was like a mum to me) Needless to say they're both songs that are near to my heart, I think for me the songs are upbeat, happy but also concede life can be hard, but it's always how you look at life. 'The dashboard melted, but we still have the radio!' and 'I backed my car into a cop car the other day, well, he just drove off some times life's okay!' And found to my delight Florida which I fell in love with on first listening.

Ridin' on a Snotling Pump Wagon






In the process of absolutely rinsing my “free gigs for a year” VIP status at my local music venue.

Starting last Tuesday, I’ve seen three local bands, plus

Wake Up Leo




Who were supporting

Space




Solid gig, and an excellent vibe. I’ve always loved live music, and am a solid exponent of no live music being bad music.

On Wednesday? It’s Bob Vylan

Lyrics NSFW, but some solid punk credentials here and I’m looking forward to a most excellent night of pogoing. They kind of remind me of Skunk Anansie, which is never a bad thing.




Next gig after that is 23 June, for Rag’n’Bone Man. Not normally my thing, but I’m taking my friend’s son who is a massive fan, to his first ever live gig - because not only do I get in free, I get priority booking. Seemed rude not to.

And the long weekend is Local & Live. Reckon I might book the Friday off and immerse myself in as much music as possible.
