Doo-doo meringue. Every time.

That too, was actually pretty awesome.

One more, I swear. XD

(This one's two songs. The first ends at about 1:23ish. The songs end before the video does, but the video's credits are set to a live version of the second song.)



?

Yes. I totally mind listening to awesome new music and want you to stop.

That too, was pretty awesome. What is this Symphony X?

They're a Progressive Metal outfit from New Jersey. They also (As you've probably noticed) experiment with Symphonic and Neo-Classical Metal. They're pretty legit. For instance, here's a song(with intro track) from their album about Paradise Lost:



Thoughts on that one?

Neo-classical...fun to say. Is it just me, or is that sort of the flavor of the month for mildly unknown metal bands? I mean...zero complaints. I love it. It's so complex, and yet you don't hear the complexity.

It's just I hear them a lourd now. That was, by the way, epic win. Is the rest of the album as good?

More important I 'spose, does it do Paradise Lost justice? Because I could totally see myself getting into that. XD

I'd say that the album is pretty decent. The beginning and end of the album are fantastic. Towards the middle, it feels like they got a bit distracted or something because it looses some momentum. It picks it up a bit later though. As for faithfulness to Paradise Lost...not entirely sure. It seems to follow the general plot outline and references a few pieces directly. It's not a musical PL though.

Here's something from their newest album:



Thoughts on this one?

Hmm...musical paradise lost may be most epic ever invented. XD

That was cool. It's easier to pick out their themes and such the more I listen to them. I likes the pants they wear.

Ashton Nyte?

I liked it. Mayhaps morbid, but...old school feeling.

Yeah, that's alt country for ya.

How've you been?

Weird. Don't call it country anything or I'll have a kneejerk. >_>

Grumpy. Depressed. Sleepy.

You?

Do you have Steam?

Theoretically? Yes. Practically? No. -_- I have a Steam account, and in ages past I used it to play Half Life and such. But this compy would have trouble even running the Steam client, let alone the games.
