Influenced by the hxc / metal / punk and hiphop of the 90's as Biohazard, Madball,

Danforth has developed an original and powerfull style of hardcore.

The songs alternates English and French, screaming and phrasing Hiphop.
Lyrics without concessions invite listeners to share the rage of the band.

So, scrobble 83,838 was Peter Tosh'sPick Myself Up.

For some reason people tend to remember Bob Marley but forget Peter Tosh, perhaps because his lyrics were more overtly political/vocal over the injustices faced by black people, a problem that many would argue is still being faced today.

Whatever you think, there is no denying the music is damn good.

Back onto the palindromic journal entries.

This time scrobble 80,808 was The Black Crowes with their track Sting Me. Interestingly, or not as the case may be, around 1991/92 the then drummer from the Black Crowes was in the St Moritz club in London's Wardour Street on the same night I was there with my girlfriend Lotta.

I was talking to the DJ and returned to the bar to find them in conversation, when I joined them he turned and said, "What the fuck do you want?" Lotta then told him we were a couple to which he replied, "Lose the fucker and come back to my hotel"

To this day I'm still surprised she didn't.

question: why are we obsessed with people bitching and moaning?
...I can’t think of anything...

Why does it feel like we need something to bitch about? what the fucks up with that?

For Example:
Skrillex / dubstep / music in general (just look at the comments in said pages >:|)
news story’s (although some stories are just plain funny)
Sport (damn footballers, overpaid wankers)
games (Console wars and endless "videos games are bad" thing)
religion (fucking fake gods 'n' shit)
food (this is bad for you, that’s bad for you... bla bla bla)
countries ("oh why can’t we be like Japan", etc)
people (people who make others happy end up on the news's shitlist)
everything fucking else (movies, TV, ads, copyright, you name it)

yes, I’m bitching about people bitching, seems to be the only way to get through to people >:|

when I say 'Look on the bright side' to anyone, 9 times of 10, they say 'what light side? everything’s bad'
Bollocks :|

I ask again: why? well... I guess this is just my welcome to the internet :)

BEST VIDEO ON YOUTUBE :D

(watch the video, ignore the rest!)

Wed 8 Feb – Shinedown, Halestorm, Liberty Lies

I have to be honest and admit I was only at the gig for Halestorm, more specifically to see and hear Lzzy Hale. This is not to disrespect the other acts, they just weren't Halestorm!

I didn't catch Liberty Lies so can't comment and only stayed for about 45 mins of Shinedown's set, which was pretty good or very good if the excitement of the crowd was anything to go by. Was bemused to hear them say they were starting their tour in the UK, especially given they played Germany the week before. Do they think we don't know their tour schedule?

Halestorm were fantastic, 45minutes seemed to fly by and I struggle to understand why they weren't over headlining themselves. Lzzy was in fine form with a voice that handles the gentleness of Familiar Taste Of Poison to the harder edge required on tracks like Bet U Wish U Had Me Back and I Get Off

I'm only sorry i found out about the tour so late as I'd have made a point of getting to the front of the stage at Manchester's gig on 14 Feb in the vain hope Lzzy popped the question, tho to be honest I'd have been happy if she just sung It's Not You at me ;-]

Tak oto pozwalam sobie podsumować ten miniony rok po kątem muzycznym. Trochę pewnie przypadku wkradło się w kolejność, ale mniej więcej (mam nadzieję) udało mi się oddać co w 2011 roku zrobiło na mnie największe wrażenie.
