Music, Music, Music

So I'm not the only person who doesn't attend a lot of shows? I'd describe the number of bands I've seen as only "several," whereas it feels like everyone else goes to shows all the time (or at least have seen many over the years).

My sister is the same with concerts as I am with coasters... so naturally, she drags us to places like Sacramento, Fresno, Amador, etc. to see bands she likes. Thankfully, I like a lot of the same bands as her, so I have a good time going as well.

Not sure how heavy folks around here like to go, but hey, it's worth a shot.

There's a band called La Dispute. They're crazy good. A little heavier on the music side, and their vocalist takes a bit of time to get used to, but once you've given their stuff a try, it's hard to stop listening. Their album "Somewhere at the Bottom of the River Between Vega and Altair" is a post-hardcore masterpiece, musically and (definitely) lyrically.

(The song isn't actually seven minutes long, but the video is for some reason.)

I recently took a real liking to the band Nightwish. Their sound is so unique and I really haven't heard anything like them before. I still can't say they're my favorite band, but still really good.

I'm so ecstatic because the Jacksons recently announced a reunion tour for this year and I wanna get tickets for their Apollo Theater concert so badly!

[CCG2I know quite a lot about Donkeys!]

I thought I would show you guys some music from a friend of mine. His name is Sasha Sosin but he goes by the name of Action (formerly Action Movie Hero Boy). He makes really good electronic dance tunes. Here's one of them.

And one of my other friends from Montreal who goes by the stagename of Kaytradamus will be performing at Osheaga Music Festival in August.

I've been doing a lot of musical exploration over the last year or so and I've found that Christians tend to consistently make the best rock and roll. Skillet, Red, Thousand Foot Krutch, Disciple, Nine Lashes, Pillar, and there's a lot more Christian rock bands I haven't tried yet but probably should.

Of all the songs that have been leaked from Lana Del Rey's TWO, yes TWO albums being released this summer.. this one wasn't one of them. Hopefully the rest of the song lives up to what i think is a stunning 25 seconds. I could see this song knocking it out of the park if the rest goes well, but then again, ever since SNL, she's been in a serious pickle and its going to be tough for her to get out of it. Her first of two albums being released is a re-release of her first album when she used her real name. (Album: Lana Del Rey AKA Lizzy Grant). The second one is something that fans are calling the "Summer MixTape" or the "HollyWood Mix Tape". The track list for Lana Del Rey AKA Lizzy Grant is already leaked, and so is Hollywood Mix Tape's list. I assume This will be the title as the album looks to be based around that theme.

Not sure how you folks feel about some good ol' classical music, but this is a solo i had at a my high school orchestra's concert

The actual piece is the second movement of Telemann's Viola Concerto in G Major

I know a lot of people hate Skrillex (and I mean *HATE* him), but since I heard his works for the first time last fall, I've been hooked. I thought I read somewhere that Voltage was supposed to come out on April 23rd, but that came and went with no album release (Make It Bun Dem might have been a taste though). Anyone know anything about a possible release date? I check back on the youtube channel every day like a loser and there's still nothing.
