Mooi Safari

Man, all those cows ;)

NP  Subsignal:  Paraiso  (last two songs)

If one takes Colossus and Swimming Home alone, they sound very fresh. It's just that I tire a bit with Stillness and Blueprint.

Paxi, you might wanna know that I took A Long Way Since The Earth Crashed to my Classic Song list  *horns*

Great music and touching YouTube:

Killswitch Engage:  Always   www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEEsWEOqpGY

Wiki: The band's name is derived from an episode of the television series The X-Files entitled "Kill Switch", written by William Gibson, who gave the episode this title after meeting the industrial band Kill Switch...Klick.

But I'm posting with my pc now, so no worries.

That's nice Nicky.

After listening to Subsignal for a while, I thought it would be nice to actually buy the album. But the Dutch web shops have a long delivery time (a month). So I went to a local record store yesterday, but they didn't have it. They even didn't know what I was talking about ("sup single?").
So I thought "let's get it from the official website", but they want me to pay 9 euros shipping costs! :o

Where did you (dutch) guys get it from?


NP:
Leprous - "Coil"

Heavily impressed! 8)
I just have to get that album!

I am not Dutch but I got the De Luxe edition (2 CD) for a very decent price here : http://www.amazon.fr/Paraiso-Deluxe-Edition-Album-live/dp/B00ECJB3E2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1387896911&sr=8-1&keywords=subsignal+paraiso And I added another CD to get the free shipping (it's free from 15 €). I don't know what you would pay to get it sent to the Netherlands but it is worth checking  ;)

NP Steve Lukather - Transition

That seems to be very cheap! Let's see what it does with shipping costs!

Do I really need a credit card for Amazon?


NP:
Symphony X - "Paradise Lost"

By the way, is anyone familiar with "Grooves Inc."? They have a world wide free delivery (which is better than 9 euros delivery costs).

Leprous - "Coal"
(again)

8) I'm in the process of making a best of 2013 list, and I have a feeling this one should be on it, although it would be strange since I don't have it in my cd collection yet.

The music (and vocals) make me think of Devin Townsend at times.

Amazon, .fr (Bupie) or .co.uk (me). 15€ everything included sounds right. You may get a slight benefit from buying it on the British site, as the pound is relatively low currently.

Yes ! How else do you imagine that the money transfer can take place ?

If you don't (wanna) have a credit card, then you can give someone else cash - anyone say Daddy ? ;)

That doesn't make any difference, Paxi ;)

I was wondering about that :o


NP  Immortal:  All Shall Fall

Admittedly it's pretty noisy on first listens (you can't listen to this sorta music at low volume) ... but bingo: after a few runs, it sounds just great  *horns*

You need a good set tho, and preferably headphones ;)

I'm now checking internet whether Grooves-Inc.com is a good choice. They are really cheap and I've yet to read any negative stories. I was wondering why I haven't heard of them before! I'm considering buying from them.

Leprous - "Coal"
Have you already listened to this album, Nicky? 8)

I listened to some Leprous about a year ago - I think it was Mad who recommended them - and I very much liked it. I will return, but atm I'm into some other groups, like:

NP  Shining:  Blackjazz  *horns*

www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_wF3g01Ktc&list=ALNb4maWNoT6S1WsmV7oFpJ0YqpsTcm5hj

Wiki: Shining is a Norwegian avant-garde music band from Oslo. The release of their fifth album Blackjazz in 2010 saw Shining turn into an extreme avant-garde metal band, with the use of growled vocals. Shining's album was received with much acclaim from both jazz, heavy metal, and more mainstream critics.

Well, I guess that excludes Teunis, Cap and Erik, but not necessarily the rest of you ;)

Yesterday I did Shining, Dying Fetus and Suffocation, despite the names excellent and exciting music (with growl, needles to say) :)

Fughu - Human (The Tales)
Sea Vine - Sea Vine
Fughu - Human (The Facts)

Listened to Fughu because they received the highest rating possible ('vette krent') in the prog magazine 'iO-pages'. The music is really nice, but like so often the singer is really not my cup of tea :o. Except for one track when Damian Wilson replaces him ;). As I like Polish prog, I also listened to Sea Vine. Same story ... . Some bands should keep it instrumental ::).

NP  Dream Theater:  Along For The Ride  (on repeat)  *horns*

www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHqLK229G3A

This is really one of the loveliest DT-songs. Even lesser DT-fans will enjoy it ;)

Jamie sings fine here. His voice is maturing nicely 8)

And Jan moves upstage. Super that Master JP gives room to his talented pals. He also does some groovy stuff here.

And Mike II has moved in seamlessly, and puts in his pulses.

And so many fine details - meaning you can play it over and over again and discover new stuff.

A real tight and progressive band - undoubtedly the flagship of prog.

Guys, here you can experience how great it is to be a proggie :)

As the reviews state - bit of Floyd , PT and even some a-ha make for a chilled prog experience.

OK, the usual DT-craze comes on:

NP  Dream Theater:  Self-titled  (on crazed repeat)   *horns* *horns* *horns*

This takes some days ;)

Man, looking forward to the concert in February - this time with two Danish friends who know what good music is 8)
