Music

A Thai rapper, Thai metal band and a Japanese kawaii metal band combine to make something wonderful, subtitles are available.

 

I see Steve Harley has passed away. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-68590846

 

The Warning.

Three sisters that went from this video, the bass player was 8, drummer 11 and lead guitar/vocals 13 at the time ffs....



To this in around 11 years. Incredibly talented to say the least and they have only really got started.



This is their youtube page https://www.youtube.com/@TheWarning/videos sort by oldest first and follow the journey.

 

This lot should be far, far bigger than they are. Randomly happened across them on Facebook about 18 months ago when I clicked on someone's profile, and I saw one of their friends profile picture was of them holding a guitar playing in a band, so I clicked on out of interest, and... Blacktop Mojo:

 

A bit Halestorm/The Pretty Reckless.

 

There are some great rock bands around at the moment, a heavy female influence bringing something new and exciting to the scene.

 

Just fall in love with them, exceptional talents in instrument craft, lyrics and performance. Pau the drummer is something else, belting out a song while heavy drumming, no problem.

 

I hear some country, blues and southern rock sounds in there. No idea where they are from etc, will check out some live stuff.

 

Great cover of Aerosmith's Dream On too

 

Yes, v sad.
Cockney rebles "Judy teen" was a great song as was the famous "Come up and see me (make me smile)" which sounds a happy jolly song but the lyrics are actually vindictively directed at his former band members who, he felt, had abandoned him and forced him to form a whole new band with whom he then had his biggest hit, so "Come up and see me, make me smile"

You've done it all
You've broken every code
And pulled the rebel to the floor
You spoiled the game
No matter what you say
For only metal, what a bore.

There ain't no more
You've taken everything
From my belief in Mother Earth
Can you ignore
My faith in everything?
'Cause I know what faith is and what it's worth

 

Good old Texas!

As you mentioned, they tick the box on a few different genres. They're very much a rock band, but some songs are a very different to others. Heavy rock, soft rock, southern rock, blues, a bit of country.

Fantastic band.

 

Rebel’s.

Tough week?

 

Yep, and their acoustic cover of In The Air Tonight is brilliant, as well:

 

I liked them.

 

Sharleen you cannot be serious ?
Yeah me too.

 

Give my mates vids a watch please, great taste in music.

 

Damn, hits deeper when you understand the lyrics. Why I love delving into world music.

 

You are ill and need help.

Only got into The Warning about a week ago, spent £70 already lol, waiting to see if they tour near me now. Special band.

 

Bily Idol and friends still going strong even if his voice isnt what it was but whose is on the rock circuit.

 

Best band name ever?

XavlegbmaofffassssitimiwoamndutroabcwapwaeiippohfffX

Which means "Acidic Vaginal Liquid Explosion Generated by Mass Amounts of Filthy Fecal Fisting and Sadistic Septic Syphilic Sodomy Inside the Infected Maggot Infested Womb of a Molested Nun Dying Under the Roof of a Burning Church While a Priest Watches and Ejaculates in Immense Perverse Pleasure over His First Fresh Fetus"

An example of their fine work here.



Happy Zombie Jesus Day everyone.

 

Listening to James' new album 'Yummy' while working. It's decent. Feel like I've missed out only really getting into them in recent times.

Here's one of the singles, 'Our World'.

 

I liked this which is also relatively recent....a bit different and takes a minute to warm up ! Pierluigi Collina had assumed lead singer responsibilites by then .

 

My god this is a masterpiece.

 

Do they do weddings?

 

Never heard of them but really like that, Unbelievable talent

 

New album drops end of June, already pre-ordered. Hoping to see them live at some point.

 

They're in the UK now and again in the summer

 

Everywhere is too far away and I am reliant on public transport which I dont mind for short journeys. Would have been at Leeds on the 22nd or maybe Glasgow if I had my own car. Not really up for a festival by myself. If they had been at Newcastle or Sunderland I would have gone as they are short public transport journeys for me.

I was meant to go to see Babymetal in Wolverhampton in November, bought the ticket but then I had to give my car up in August, couldnt afford to keep running it plus the MOT was up and it failed badly. Was gutted about that.

 

Looks like a good setlist, great crowd here.

 

For anyone who maybe interested I have stumbled across a website called ukmix.org which has a tonne of information and not least charts and sales .
Someone had access to the top 200 singles from between 1983 and 1993 and is posting them up which is no mean feat in itself . The site is a bit hard to navigate but look for chart analysis to see where that single you purchased in 1986 ,but never reached the top 75 ended up !.

 

You can do that on https://www.officialcharts.com/. Although it doesn’t give sales figures.

 

The official charts only go to top 75 . 76 to 200 was never released publicly and only
to the record company of the artist occupying one of those positions .

 

Ah, I see.
