Hi, and greetings from Russia. I see you like Nemesea. Which album do you like more? You have different genres of rock music... it's interesting).

Favourites from the Dragon Age: Inquisition OST, you mean? There's no way to pick something, just go for the [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9FvEhX3E0w]whole thing[/url]. [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuJnvC8voJY]Lindsey Stirling[/url] did her own rendition of the main theme and even though it's not as great as the [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OGGOWCOLL8]original[/url], it's still very interesting to check out. The composer is the same guy who wrote the music for Vikings, The Bridge, The Pillars of the Earth series and many more. I'm beginning to recognize his style whenever I hear him during movies or TV, haha. He has his own phrasing. WT's Our Farewell is wonderful, I'm only sad that it was omitted from the recent DVD. Here's the [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHpDZP1aw_I]duet[/url] from Elements. I attended the concert, it was a touching moment. Thanks for the Apocalyptica link, I love this song :D

Ignorance is bliss, remember? :D Don't hesitate to ask for recommendations if you ever need any. That reminds me, have you listened to the new Dragon Age OST?

We can talk for months about the US being intolerant, arrogant and aggressive while disguising it in different ways that we all know of but I'd rather not spoil the evening with politics. It's not like discussing it over the Internet or even face to face will change anything anyway. So, on to your question, there are many Christmas metal tracks, haha. I always think of [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wgVXracm_ng]Austrian Death Machine[/url] and [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9U5FWIS4KLA]WT[/url] when it comes to it. Then there's the fantastic [url=https://www.facebook.com/ChristmasMetalSymphonie]Christmas Metal Symphony[/url] event hosted each year (well, not this one) featuring names that you should be familiar with :) Check out the page. You'll also find various performances from the previous years on YouTube.

December is all quiet. Everything has been dealt with in advance so we take it easy. I took the week off but there will be no pressure until the beginning of 2015, I think. It's usually this way. As for the American way of 'embracing all faiths', screw that.

Good luck with the flat purchase. Don't really know about prices there but things here are more or less steady as of late. And yes, at work we speak mostly English. Not to mention the company was recently bought by a huge US software giant so things will get even more crucial after the undertaking. :D

Sorry for the late reply again. How have you been? Yes, I know Antimatter, Duncan Patterson was here in Bulgaria several times in a row. Not really my cup of tea (same as Anathema, except for let's say one album) but some tracks are enjoyable.

Thanks for inviting :) Yeah, I love music. I love Rock, Pop, Pop Rock, Pop Punk, Punk Rock, Alternative Rock, R&B, Soul, Hip Hop, Electropop, Metal, Grunge, Dance... almost everything, just depends on the style of the band or artist ;D Yes, that's Taylor from The Pretty Reckless ;) Thanks for the link, I really like the music from Halestorm. Thanks :) It's always amazing to find new bands and artists :D How are you?

It's a train going from Bucharest to Sibiu in Romania, where the annual ARTmania festival takes place. It's a long but picturesque trip and you don't really feel the hours passing while travelling with friends :D The weather was good, all sunny and shining after the thick morning mist. it was during the hottest days but then suddenly this cloud rushed at us and it started raining O.o Lasted no longer than ten minutes but it was enough for us to take some shots. Here's some [url=http://postimg.org/gallery/1yluv0vpo/]more[/url].

Seems like everyone can have a successful black metal career these days. The scene is so rehashed it hurts. That's me, I'll link you as soon as Facebook stops lagging. It's killing me tonight.

Haha :D I've heard parts of it but never the whole thing, So there are many ways of being misunderstood, eh. I wonder if that guy killed himself in the end :D

Thank you, I love that song! Ivan's voice is great, I dig both his cleans and harsh chords. Cool band, something more commercial that I can enjoy freely. They're overdoing it with the lyrics but heck, it's fun.

Sorry it's been a while! I really enjoyed both tracks you recommended. Rise Up had good build up and a very decent rhythm, Irreversible was a fairly standard but enjoyable rock track :) Oh I absolutely love M.I.N.E (End this way) definitely my favourite FFDP song - which is a little weird as it's not their normal style! What have you been up to anyway? I've been on another two day hike since Peru, and have another planned (in Snowdonia :) a couple in a couple of weeks. We've got a haloween party tonight at work, which looks to be very amusing, all anyone can talk about today is what everybody is going to dress up as :) Do you have any Halloween plans?

I did, it was insane. The bands nailed it and the promo team did a wonderful job. I'll tell and show you more soon, still recovering from the damn flu that kept me company during my stay there. Cheers!

Misery's Crown and Focus Shift are both ace, I'm particularly in love with the latter :) Prefer metal than rock but I do indulge in some guilty pleasures from time to time. Take [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2-HOaIO7Wg]Poets of the Fall[/url], for example. If I'm not listening to some of the usual bands on my charts here, then I'm almost always busy with movie or video games soundtracks. As for Linkin Park, I used to like some of their earlier songs. The sound was decent, the videos were also good. But that was back in the day during their first and second album, I guess. Recently stumbled upon a new song and didn't like it. Muse ain't my cup of tea but I see why so many people dig their stuff. Thanks for the kind words! :)

You're welcome. Come to think of it, most of my favourite bands have the necessary diversification that really makes them stick in my mind. DT, WT, Moonspell, Paradise Lost, Amorphis etc. are anything but repetitive. Some might stick to a comfort zone for an album or two but then they change for good. I definitely need more artists like these, especially in current rehash times where there are barely any standouts.

No worries, I mistype often myself :D Most people here know the language, I'd say. English, Russian, German/French - these were all mandatory at one point and English still is. Jeremy is special to me, regardless of the project. As a matter of fact, I can't wait to get my hands on [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CeU6kb2rR9g]Everquest Next[/url] because of the score. The samples sound beautiful and I agree with your statement - there's nothing better to listen to at night when I want to clear my mind and get rid of pesky daily stress. Dark Tranquillity is an entire world on its own, I'm seeing them live in a week. The puritans label them as melodeath but I have no idea how to define their music nowadays. Something edgy and atmospheric. Each album is different which is why I value the band so much. If you want an easy start, go for [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kliQ417Isww]Fiction[/url].

Hi there :) No prob about the add. Autumnal is doom metal in the likes of Katatonia, My Dying Bride, etc. so if you're looking for something mellow and atmospheric, it's a decent choice but I've definitely heard better. It should be out this Friday and it's their sophomore record, they were absent for several years. If you want other recommendations, let me know what you feel like listening to and I'll see if I can think of something that's not present on your charts here.

Atmosphere is EVERYTHING! I'm jealous. Your weather sounds wonderful right about now:) I started dancing WAY before the girls were on the radar! I'm on the OTHER side of the pond - So Cal to be exact.

Hmmm.............I think I listen to more of the older WoW music here - BC, Cata - where in game I get my fix for all else. Looking forward to the new expansion for new tunes:0 I had to warm up to 11, but he makes my top 3 I guess - 9 thru 11. (But his hair doesn't compare to 10's!) Ah the screen name. One day at a former job a few friends & I were discussing possibly rejected Spice Girls names. One friend claimed HairySpice - few takers - while my BitchySpice evolved to Pissy.

No problem:) Let me know what you're in the mood for & I'll see what I can come up with. Hmmm maybe the numbers don't jive because I tend to listen to many tracks on a regular basis - like all Warcraft tracks (I love the music even when I'm NOT playing:) Sadly after 10 I haven't watched a whole lot of The Doctor:( Just not the same.............

Hey, it's great to hear from you :) and also great to be back - except the going back to work part! How's things in sunny Wales? I must say I'm surprised by the sun here, I was expecting much worse! Sadly they have no good music in Peru, so I have been new-songless (is that a thing?) for 3 weeks - I hope you have some awesome new stuff to recommend? :) if not I'll be happy to hear how you've been?

Ah and no I don't speak very good Spanish, although I did learn it for a few years at School, and I'm taking a backpack to Peru, so it might be a little difficult for you to stow away, I'm not sure I could give you a piggy back to South America ;) Good luck with your flat search!

Haha, no worries it's not like I have limited wall space, it's always good to hear from you! Yeah I'm looking forward to Peru, I've never been before so gonna do all the touristy things like visit Machu Picchu and try and get a trip to the Amazon in too! Should be an awesome three weeks! No, no South American Blood that I know of, I am a cross-breed though, my mum's from the Philippines and my dad's English :) Cool, Eastleigh sounds good, I used to live in Hampshire few years ago, but closer to London - it's a lovely county. Yeah you're right a great way to see a place is to get lost in it, although perhaps I won't try that in Peru, I do want to make it back in one piece! What job are you looking for if you don't mind me asking, whats worth leaving all your Welsh sheep and abundant rain to come and join us commoners down here? :)

Hey, happy Saturday! Did you make it to Southampton? What are you up to this weekend? I've been getting needles stuck in me today (fun(!) cos I'm off to Peru in a couple of weeks and don't want to get any tropical diseases! Been getting some last minute things for the trip too, do you find that one of the best parts of holidays is the anticipation? Your fifty foot ice cream cone mirage made me laugh - I think I had a dream like that once, Martin Luther King I am not :) I really liked Fizz and the Tantrums, very upbeat and fun summer tune! Glad you had fun in Sailsbury; plenty of sheep and sun basking natives sounds like lots of UK towns and cities, your poetic prose was a nice touch, 'heavenly sheep pens' haha, not sure I've ever heard that one before!! On a music note if you've never listened to The Temperance Movement, I recommend them, Midnight Black is one of my favourites http://www.last.fm/music/The+Temperance+Movement/_/Midnight+Black?ac=midnight%20black%20the%20temp
