Pendragon, As Good As Gold

Steve Vai - Sound Theories vol. 1 + 2

Track: [04] The Murder

[johninblack]

I will very soon have Pendragon - Pure on in the car on the way to work. At work I WILL break the rules and have my mp3 player on probably starting where I left off last night/this morning with Edguy - Rocket Ride.

[maddox]

Never heard of this one. How does it sound like ?

I assume you know both Gary Moore and Phil Lynott. Gary once was a guitarist in Thin Lizzy.
This song Out In The Fields is recorded in 1983.
Lots of childhood memories rise when i hear this song. Everyone seemed to dislike the song except for me and a friend at school.

You can watch the song on Youtube.

Trust me, this song rocks!!!

Steve Vai - Sound Theories vol. 1 + 2

Thanks for reminding me, Mad.

I actually bought this album some time ago, but didnt listen properly to it, so I'l give it a run soon.

What's your impression of it ?

At work I WILL break the rules and have my mp3 player on ....

Right Johnny boy. Music must have first priority 


NP  Caamora  She  (on repeat)

Getting deeper into it 

I'm surprised that you guys arent more interested in this masterpiece. How can you rave so much about Arena and ignore Caamora She 

Inconsistency again

NP  Steve Vai:  Sound Theories

There was some mad roomie who got me interested 

Nice, that Stevie sure plays a badass guitar 

Another groundbreaking musician who merits faaar more attention 

Tom, are you into SV ?  If not, then

NP Sacrifice - Edguy. This is one really great album (Rocket Ride) I recommend it to the room.

Not at work now. I sent myself home before I threw a total wobbly. Lots of shit happening and undue pressure being applied. I'm not going to play those games.

Hey, that doesnt sound good, John. Are you leaving your present job ?

NP  Steve Vai:  Sound Theories  Vol. I

RPWL - Stock.

[Nicky007]

NP  Scar Symmetry:  Pitch Black Progress

Up there at the pinnacle with Nevermore and DT imm.

I'm surprised that these guys are so young and yet so mature and groundbreaking musically and philosophically 

Raises my spirit 

Yaknow, it's not easy being me 

Nicky.

[Steve Jones]

Yaknow, it's not easy being me 

You leave us in no doubt about that!


NP Manning - Number Ten.  Excellent album and highly recommended.  I'm trying to give it my undivided attention at the moment, which isn't always easy at Jones Towers!

I trust you and I'll check 

NP Thin Lizzy - Renegade   

[johninblack]

Hey, that doesnt sound good, John. Are you leaving your present job ?

That very much depends what happens when I get back, I've been signed off for a week minimum and already feel better knowing I have some time to get myself sorted out both physically and mentally. I've had this viral throat infection that seems to have taken half of Europe out and trying to deal with management that seem to think they know better than me how I feel and what I can do has just pushed me to far. The problem I have is where I am now we are very well paid compared to the local average so as much as I might want to leave i'd almost certainly have to take a pay cut. A modest cut I could manage but there are not many jobs in that league.

NP Joe Jackson - Fools In Love.

NP  Steve Vai:  Sound Theories

There was some mad roomie who got me interested 

I'm glad i could help. 

I'll get back to you with my insights regarding the album.

Marillion - Market Square Hero

[Nicky007]

NP  Dark Suns on MySpace

http://www.myspace.com/dunklesonnen

Tom, absolutely music to my taste. Very varied and imaginative. Some of it is delicate and dreamy, occasionally like Anathema. And at other times it gets very heavy and intense.

I'l definitely get some of their albums.

Thanks, Tom, for this great tip 

Highly recommended to all roomies 

Nicky.

[Teunis]

Just played IQ - Are You Sitting Comfortably?

np: Knight Area - Under A New Sign

I know. Grave Human Genuine is a heck of an album. 

[Iggy]

A fine day to exit - Anathema

[Nicky007]

BP  Nile  on MySpace

That sorta music is rather remote from my taste. It seems monotonous to me, the grey noisy fast guitars and grunt (more than growl).


NP  We Are the Ocean  on MySpace

Much more appealing to me, altho it doesnt seem particularly original. Good regular melodic hard rock, with some screamo that I like. But presently I'm not considering getting any albums by'm.


Anyone into any of these two groups ?

Nicky.

[Bupie]

NP Joe Jackson - Fools In Love.

Good choice but it seems that love is not the first preoccupation of the fools you have to deal with ...

PP Shakin' Street - Solid As A Rock
JF UFO - Lights Out
NP The Angels - Night Attack

I'm caught in a severe hard rock nostalgia crisis 

[Nicky007]

NP  Scar Symmetry:  Pitch Black Progress

They'v put so much care and attention into each one of the thirteen tracks on this album.

Guess they were aware that they were making music for the ages 

Admittedly, it's very dense - music for repeated listening 

Mad, has the baby displaced this album again ? 

And Tom, what's goin on ? - havent seen you for some days 

Nicky.

[The Butterfly Man]

NP  Steve Vai:  Sound Theories

Tom, are you into SV ?  If not, then 

No, I'm not really into Steve Vai to be honest. I don't really have a good reason why, but sometimes when you listen to something that you are 'supposed' to like that special feeling is just not there. A feeling I do have with guitarplayers like John Mitchell, John Petrucci, Joe Satriani and Paul Gilbert for example.

Thanks, Tom, for this great tip 

You're welcome! I already had a feeling that you would like Dark Suns. Your description of their music is quite accurate I think, so there's no need to add something to that!

As mentioned earlier, I like 'em (sometimes)! So I guess that makes me the most heavy of us both! Yeah!

Tom, what's goin on ? - havent seen you for some days 

Ah nothing serious, I'm doing fine! It's just because I'm in the middle of a very busy week with a couple of birthdays, band rehearsals, work related stuff and hanging out with (girl)friend(s) so that leaves almost no time to check what's going on in here. But come tomorrow I'll have more time, I hope...
