Mission of Burma "Mica" "That's How I Escaped My Certain Fate" "That's When I Reach for My Revolver"
In This Moment "Forever"
Lacuna Coil "Closer" "Swamped"
Crooked X "Gone"
Not familiar with any of these songs. Anybody wanna hardcore recommend one for me to take a listen to?
I hope that Beatles rumor is true as I've spent all weekend listening to Sgt. Pepper to prepare for a reading in my playwriting class and it's been awesome. (Read the lead, he says. OK, I reply. And btw you sing "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" at the end, he adds.)
BTW sorry for forgetting the icon last week. This week is my latest attempt at one. I just reversed the colors (which was much harder than you'd think) to improve visibility .

Just use ours - it gets them into the table that lets you click on the icon to bring back all the past threads on one page. (I have finally remembered to add it to the icon list on the new threads page.)

Songs I will buy from this week: - Holiday in Cambodia - the three Misson of Burma songs, even though I haven never heard them, because my girlfriend is insisting on it and she is using her own points for them, so whatever

I couldn't speak to the other sings.

In This Moment are a metalcore band from LA, again female-fronted, again fairly hot singer. They're...average.
Apart from DK, I've no idea about the others.
EDIT: Wow, I took so long trying to figure out what to write, Lise jumped in ahead of me with some Lacuna Coil knowledge. Oh well, for those who don't know...

| #8 Posted on 18.11.08 1746.17 | Instant Rating: 8.78 | Personally, I like Within Temptation, and The Gathering more than Lacuna Coil, peppered with a little Nightwish for when I want a band that takes its "epic" sound a little too seriously sometimes.
But I really can't imagine myself wanting to "play" any of these. Maybe it's because I just can't imagine anyone strapping on a corset and playing air guitar... unless they were looking for a little Ziggy Stardust fix. |
