Title: RWHN: Your Metal Matchmaker
Post by: AFK on October 09, 2009, 07:28:46 PM
ITT:  I match you up with some metal that I have arbitrarily decided fits with your on-line persona.

For you newer cats, you might have to make a request because I probably won't remember you.  Also, yes I will be mostly using youtube links.  If you can't view it for some reason I'll try to find an alternate source for you. 

Anyway, let's start shall we? 

First off, for Cain:

Primordial - Empire Falls

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22ZlgpXfc44

Primordial are a band from Ireland, and their last album, "To The Nameless Dead" has a lot of political-type content that I think you would enjoy.  Or at least, some of the themes remind me of things you've talked about in the past.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7lP30tSZF0

From the album Heartwork.  Easily one of the best metal albums of the 90s.  If not THE best.

This one is dedicated to the Open Bar:

Korpiklaani - Metsamies

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDTq9Ow7Fjw

I have no idea of what they are singing, it's all in Finnish, but I think it's something about drinking, because that seems to be what most of their songs are about.

at first i was all "hell yeah" cuz, although i'd never heard of the band "mindfunk" i was like, well, like i said, "hell yeah" - then i did some research (youtubes is teh blocked at work) and i was like, "nineties? grunge? metal? FUNK??"  and i was like, "HELLS YEAH!"

but then i listened to them and i can't help wonder if it was some sort of veiled insult. 

either it was, or i clearly need to post moar.

Fuck YES to the first one. That sort of music is just what the doctor ordered, in fact, its the sort of thing I've been listening to more and more these days (but completely instrumental). Awesome. The second one is death metal, really not into the vocals in death metal but I REALLY appreciate the instrumental work, with that fast pumping base drum in the back ground. The heavier and harder the better. And the guitar IS sweet. Again, much the sort of thing I've been listening to these days.

Thanks!

I'm sure I've linked you to this one before,

Cynic - Veil of Maya

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5VzbQQEQo0

and so as a bonus-

Souls at Zero - Never

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4egdPn7exE


gf just went to bed (in the same room), so I'll lsiten to these tomorrow. Thanks! :)

Cynic -- vocoder, check :) (or is it an autotune, I'm not sure, I'm kinda bored with autotunes)

Souls at Zero is kinda cool. Until he started singing ..

Regarding of vocoders in metal, I still like this one best http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kQE-4aOkiU
(other videos are more interesting to watch, but this one has better sound quality--at least on my crappy
laptop speakers)

The sort of metal I've been listening to these days: http://www.metroidmetal.com/

I'm really addicted to that, metal covers of old metroid tunes.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gn1xiSofSZY

I had a hard time with you, so this might be kind of random. 


at first i was all "hell yeah" cuz, although i'd never heard of the band "mindfunk" i was like, well, like i said, "hell yeah" - then i did some research (youtubes is teh blocked at work) and i was like, "nineties? grunge? metal? FUNK??"  and i was like, "HELLS YEAH!"

but then i listened to them and i can't help wonder if it was some sort of veiled insult. 

either it was, or i clearly need to post moar.

No.  Actually, I posted that one for you becaues I did a little post-archaeology and saw that you posted something about Primus, so, I was trying to come up with another "funky" metal band.  Maybe I should've done Infectious Grooves instead.

I believe it's a vocoder, at least, that's what they used on the album. 

A little trivia about Souls at Zero, they were formally known as Wrathchild America.  Their music wasn't selling very well, so they decided to cut their hair, and change their name, which fooled no one.  Now, their drummer is the drummer for Godsmack.

Hah.  Well I don't know what would be tougher than someone who posted about once a day for a year, but you seemed to do pretty well with me.  I don't know metal, but I was cool with both of the ones you linked.

no reasonable person could expect you to come up with ZOMG!!! that is the perfect song to describe me!!

all in all - thanks much for a thread.  i really like metal, but theres a lot of bands you mention that i've never heard of before.  and you also have given me a lot of, "oh yeah, i remember that band" moments.  i'd like to try a similar thread for bluegrass bands, but that's unpossible.  songs maybe, but not bands.

oh - and sorry to put you on the DEfensive.  the veiled insult thing is just my latent paranoia.

I don't know why, but I find myself wanting to match you up with the Galactic Cowboys, particularily these tunes:

Pump Up The Space Suit:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4FP9CS4vQY

Ranch on Mars:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmLHr_lkmNI

ETA:  Additional research has uncovered that the bass player from Galactic Cowboys, Monty Colvin is actually a cousin to Dee Dee Ramone (who's real last name is also Colvin)

Hmm, what kind of music do you normally listen too?  Perhaps it will allow me to refine the process to get you a more suitable match.   :)

Woah.  The lyrics of those songs are pretty damned cool:

QuoteThe Game
The two of us, so young and so wild
We can't find the cure to what has led us astray
Far apart from what we once were
and we both made a choice there's no turning back from here
There's no turning back from here

But we have no aim, just keeping up the pace
Who's the best of us, who's the stronger one
Will it ever end?
This escalating game

We're reborn to live on the edge
Who's the bravest of us?
Who will live to tell?
I'm so scared of what we've become
As we double the bets, the proportions exceed ourselves
The proportions exceed our sanity

We have gone from meek to brave
And we're chasing a dream that never will come true
Letting go of all our fears
The unavoidable end is the enemy we defy

But we have no aim, just keeping up the pace
Who's the best of us, who's the stronger one
Will it ever end?
This escalating game
There can be only one

QuoteI Return
Day and night just come and go
I hate that life is so deceiving
I feel this urge to turn away
From all the sadness and grieving

I find my way back to the place where we parted
All I hear is my heart pounding inside
I'm so afraid of what I'll see when I return
There's a part of me that needs to say goodbye
Until we meet again

Now and then he reappears
In my dreams
In my illusions
Pointing out the chosen path
It feels so real
Am I really dreaming?

Soon I'll see what time has done to my creation
Hell on Earth is just a few steps away
The Sun is hiding
I am in the heart of darkness
I'm closing in on the godforsaken tree

The moment I defy the pain
Is here again, in another way
All the fear in my life
Is erased from my soul
I never knew that my fantasies
Could be oh so close to reality
And what I see here right now
Is so hard to believe

I see the rope, my friend is gone
His body's nowhere to be found
I hear him whisper in the wind
I hear him calling out my name
Am I going insane?

The moment I defy the fear
Is here again, I can feel he's near
All the fear in my life
Have returned to my soul
I never knew that my fantasies
Could be oh so close to reality
And what I'm hearing right now
Is so hard to believe




Thanks!

I definitely liked the chuggy-ness, as well as the minimalist guitar solo, though I was hoping for something along the speedier end of the genre. Out of curiosity, what lead you to this selection?

Fair enough. Though, what about Penn & Teller?
