guud morning

Hello fellow crossies,

My second week of internship at some Science and Entertainment bureau in NetherlandsEindhoven has just started. And quite honestly, I am tired of it already!

It is my task here to develop a communication strategy along with matching resources. I haven't really gotten to it though, since I'm waiting for the creative dude to outline the corporate house design of the company. Which is taking him bloody long if I may say so.

Since I have many more hours to fill here with not much to do I turn to you lot.

GIVE ME SOMETHING TO DO PLEASE

Any online games that need no downloading or other occupations would be much appreciated. I have also brought my epic book A storm of swords out of the A song of ice and fire series (of which the first book is A game of thrones) but I'd rather read it at night in bed.

Some nice songs are welcome aswell. I'm mostly into classic rock and some cool metal, but I also like some drum n bass and dubstep.
Any funny or cool vids would ofcourse be much appreciated!

Thank you in advance!


Shoutout to Europe#erAse.et. We are trying to get back on top of things :)

Cool version of Marilyn Mansons "Beautiful People", http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QMtDyvAzVw

Possibly the best thing what Sweden has to give, At The Gates "Slaughter Of The Soul", http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJme5uubkyQ

And something Finland local too, Sentenced "Lower The Flags", http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSpRpH8IcSg

The Red In The Sky Is Ours, With Fear I Kiss The Burning Darkness and Gardens Of Grief blow the later albums out of the water.

Additionally, don't forget about bands like ...And Oceans.

I would like to get re-mastered versions from the older ones, not such a fan of garage-quality, it eats so much out of it / not such a hipster that I would like to be an intentional oldschooler and dissing newer albums.

Are you kidding me? The earlier albums might be a bit rougher around the edges, but that's exactly why I like them (the orchestrated, overly melodic sound of the later albums is one of the reasons why I don't like them as much). Try keeping a straight face when you say that the overall sound of an album like Burning Darkness is inadequate.

And I'm not intentionally oldschooling at all. I've really tried liking Terminal Spirit Disease and Slaughter Of The Soul when they were released, but no such luck.

I am not saying that they suck or arguing about which album is better, but for me they just sound unfinished. Sometimes a band can pull it out, but I like the "finished" ones more. So many bands have sounded like shit, until they have gotten proper sounds behind the skills.

I found that both full-length albums apparently have been re-released in both 2001 and 2003. I wouldn't be surprised if they're also remastered.

I've learned to live with the fact that bands not always find the best sound for their music (due to budget or other circumstances) or intentionally go for a low fidelity sound. The composition and atmosphere are way more important.

The beautiful people bionic shit is quite cool! Dont like the At The Gates thing, not really my type of metal. I like the Sentenced thing though :)

That song is not half bad! She has a very original style :)

My weekend was pretty cool except for the fact that I found out my knee is fucked up. Will probably have to quit football for the next few months and that while I've just started playing it again after 3 years :<

Have a nice day schnee!

Had to listen the song more than 10s after your "original style" comment. It was the same shit to the end. You owe me 2 minutes.

Deann 12 Sep 2011, 11:28
original style does not mean the song is not 2 minutes of the same shit to the end bro :P I meant to say that she has a defined way of bringing her music, can't really be compared to any other artist I know I at least! And I respect original artists, even if their music is not super good.

Thomm 12 Sep 2011, 11:31
I didn't mean that I was expecting the song to change somewhat, just didn't find anything original from it. I tried hard :&

Deann 12 Sep 2011, 11:33
To what other artists would you compare her then?
Parent
▼
Thomm 12 Sep 2011, 11:38
Not really even sure since I am bad with names. But I couldnt make a difference with her and basically any other random-song from some of those dance-radio-stations.

Fair enough.

Deann 12 Sep 2011, 13:28
