If Trent Reznor would do rap, his music would sound like "The Inevitable Raise And Liberation Of NiggyTardust", latest album of Saul Williams. The album is fantastic, but it reeks of Trent, yet, it is Saul Williams'. You can "read" Trent Reznor in the music, in the sounds, and effects, but the background sound mixes perfectly with Saul's vocals and lyrics and concept. And, a wonderful and great surprise for me - the cover of "Sunday Bloody Sunday", my most fav U2 song ever. I couldn't detect much of Trent's vocals, I wonder if…

Saturday been at the Muse gig, which was awesome, and also a nice surprise for me. I knew about Muse, but never listened to them. There's been some vids on the music channels here too, but again I didn't pay much attention. So it was something new for me.

First surprise was seeing Brett Anderson, former singer in UK band Suede, very big in the 1990s. I knew he and his band would do the warm-up but wasn't expecting to be that good. For someone reaching 40s, he looks and moves awesome. The music was ok, also.…

My review of this awsome gig of Gogol Bordello will consist only of images, because, isn't it?, an image speaks a thousand words. So, here's for everyone to read…

Ha, I'm gonna see Nine Inch Nails in February, next year, in Spain.
I'm ze man!

Why did the chicken cross the road?

Rhapsody: To slay the mighty, great and glorious dragon which honorably bears the unholy symbol of the five flaming crossed swords!

Hammerfall: To come to the home of the brave!

My Dying Bride: To die alone and embrace the unescapable cold embrace of death on a cold, dark, misty autumn night… It's bloodied body is what I cling to…

Iron Maiden: It was afraid of the dark.

Sinergy: It went to the fourth world!

W.A.S.P. : To fuck something.

Manowar: TO FIGHT SIDE BY SIDE WITH THOR'S…

Since I'm a master in wasting time, I don't find anything better to do than amuse myself reading the tags others gave to songs played on Last.FM

So… I will give only few examples, since they tend to repeat themselves.

According to some, Chopin's Nocturne No 1 is: funk, blues, Hiop-Hop, metal, electronica, post-rock and indie rock, Grunge, free jazz and contemporary classical, psy.chedelic.

Ok, next - Beethoven's Theme Russe: Allegro: alternative, punk, indie, classic rock, alternative rock, electronic, new wave, new age, folk, Melodic Death Metal (HAHAHAHAHAHAHA), 80s, ska, Gothic Metal, blues, funk, Power Metal, reggae, soul, cool, post-punk,…

Pretty Hate Machine. No, I won't do a review of the album. That's what Answers.com and Rolling Stones Mag. are for :P

Anyway, it's the album I like the least. It sounds too late 80's hip-hop thinggie for my tastes. I hate the 80's with all my being, imagine how I feel for 80's hip-hop stuff. That doesn't mean I consider the album to be bad. Oh, no, is way better than most of the shit produced back then. But…

It sounds so different from the stuff that Trent Reznor came up with later. It's as if he started on…

Nine Inch Nails have only few good vids, and the one for We're In This Together is one of them. That post-apocalyptic scenario, the desperation on the men's faces. Reminds me of those episodes when Aussie land was only a prison colony and, when the new ships with female prisoners arrived, they gathered all the male prisoners on the shore and it all ended up into a mass raping and abuse. Anyway…

About the song itself - Ever been so in love with someone to cling literally of them and refuse to let go no matter what? To hang in…

If you were a song, what kind of song would you be?

First and foremost, the song I'd be should have cellos. I love the sound of cellos more than anything. And Nine Inch Nails and cellos = goose-bumps and a tune to listen to on and on and on and drive insane everyone around me with it.

This tune begins as if received from a very far away place in the Universe. Or as if someone starts an old weird and dusty machine. Then, the smooth and intricate sounds of the cellos and violins. Over those, what seems like…
