Schiphol airport is full of both happy and sad memories for me. My trips to Amsterdam have been very funny and relaxing. I went there in 2009 to meet a girl from Seattle and it was unbelievable. I couldn't believe I had a full week to speak English only. That was gold. And I like the Dutch, or...
I think you should listen to Falling Into Infinity. Sure, it's a lot poppier than the albums you mention, but there's Trial Of Tears in it (and a good shorter song like Peruvian Skies) Sad that you didn't like I&W. Under A Glass Moon is VERY good IMO.
In Italy, it's kinda tricky: we say "mezz'ora e mezza" for "half an hour and a half". So it kinda sounds like he (my friend) means "half an hour and half half an hour". This is why this "game" drove my whole circle of friends crazy. We have a LOT of time on our hands in summer nights.
A friend of mine, looking at that picture and reading that brand, would instantly look up everything available about that beer :bigsmile:
The same guy once asked me: how much is half an hour and a half? I said it was 45 minutes. What do you think?
Right. I do agree with you when you say that bands like Iron Maiden and Metallica don't need to appeal to an even wider audience, but I do also believe such attempts are made because there are corporate interests at play in the day-to-day life of such "heavyweights", so if they make lots of...
The Man Who Would Be King
Yes, there are lots of references to what "you" (the listener?) could've heard from TV, radio and internet sources. I think the "message" of the song is: the media blows things out of proportion, they exploit and nurture society's fear and anxiety for political...
They opened for Tool in Florence in late 2006, they were quite good at "warming up" the crowd. I haven't seriously listened to them ever since but I like their Colony Of Birchmen.
Not exactly. My political views are a mix between right wing and left wing. I don't want private property to become illegal and I don't want the state to control gun ownership, but at the same time I'm pro-choice on everything, from drugs to abortion to euthanasia and I'm also a supporter of gay...
I don't agree with the first part of your post. Many of the artists I listen to are apolitical and musically devoid of philosophical (or otherwise) concerns. But I agree with the rest: I'm musically amoral. If the music sucks, then it deserves to be avoided, but that's about it, not because of...
I didn't explain myself well there. What I meant to say was: in a clearly propagandistic way. Not in Slayer's terms. I meant to say that it'd be weird to sing along to a song written by a band of true nazis, no matter how well written.
Well, it would be weird (to say the least) to sing along to a band that writes songs about concentrations camps or other similar subjects, but then, I wouldn't write off a band because of politics. I'd judge the overall product instead, if it sucks, then I'll stop listening to that artist's...
