cocteau twins??? sappy 80s pop balladeers????

o. the injustice of it all.

it's ok, tho. i'll... be ok. (she sez, weeping, surrounded by balled up kleenex.)

ps. back to yer regularly scheduled blind melon song.

[Lord Grendel]

I liked the song you posted Kath.....if it's any consolation.

[Salmacis]

Sorry Kath, but it's just what it sounded like to me D:

[kath]

it's ok, y'all. i was being melodramatic for the helluvit. if i want cocteau support, i can venture on over to this certain brit board i visit on occasion. there, i'll get... well, some support. mwhahahahaa. they're a cantankerous if witty lot.

i do hope someone'll repost that blind melon. cuz i already forgot what it was.

[Lord Grendel]

I'm leaving the Blind Melon for someone else, I am not a big fan myself. I love the Pish that some of my British friends talk, they are hilarious.

[Salmacis]

I'll rate the Blind Melon song then, swing things back on topic

It was quite good, the lead voice was slightly annoying (not much though) but the female voice more than made up for it. Also liked the strings usage too, so 7/10.

[Cosmic Harmony]

Ooo mow mow ma mow mow. I really liked this song. 9 out of 10.

[Salmacis]

I like it, The Dandy Warhols are one of the better rock bands going around, and their most famous song is no disappointment 8/10

My favourite song from The Mess Hall:

[Magic]

Not bad, Sal. The vocals are the weak point, IMO. 7/10

[Cosmic Harmony]

Does the singer of that band have a Flock of Seagulls haircut? :wft:

I didn't care for the first minute or so where everything sound kinda muffled like it's in a tin can or something but after that it got better. I liked the chorus and the strings were nice but it's not really my preferred sort of song. I can't really knock it for anything major since I can see why anyone more into that type of sound would like it.

I'll give it a 6 out of 10.

Now for something more uppity perhaps?

(((Nevermind the crappy fan made video that goes along with the song)))

[rockgoddess1968]

Not a bad song, nice to tap my foot along too, but not keen on the vocals.

6/10


Now for something a little heavier

[Cosmic Harmony]

I really liked how it sounded in the beginning but I really hate death growls. Aside from that I enjoyed the song well enough. 7 out of 10.

[Salmacis]

Pirate rock you say? Alestorm do it better IMO, but that's still a fun little song.

Direct from my journal, a song from a band I've been loving lately:

[Cosmic Harmony]

Now it wasn't until recently that I learned of "Wizard Rock" but there's Pirate Rock too? Is there Ninja rock out there somewhere too or is it so stealthy that no one knows of it?
The Dropkick Murphys are Celtic punk but with that song in particular (along with "Shipping Off The Boston") I could see how they come across very piratey.

That's a pretty cool song. I thought the video with the Twinkie man was pretty cool too. 8 our of 10.

[rockgoddess1968]

I really liked this album by The Rasmus, and this is one of my favourite tracks from it. So it's an 8/10 from me.
