Music Tuesday #094: Feel the moment

My Instagram feed looks mainly like this: https://www.instagram.com/creepmachine/ (Beautiful, unusual, dark, and surreal art).  So I like the fantastical, the weird and non-conformist stuff. This song is the perfect music score to that. 
Also, I have been warming up to using electronic music elements in heavy music.  It opens so many possibilities, so much room to experiment.  BTW, check out Camel Dancefloor by Igorrr.  Heavy without any traditional heavy metal.  Back to this week's band though.  In The Moment took 15 years and seven albums to appear on my radar.  How did I not notice Maria Brink all that time?  Quite an appearance and what a voice!  Check out the new album titled "Mother" with a very nice opening cover "Fly Like An Eagle" (Steve Miller). Some songs are too much pop for me, but the voice of Maria on top makes it all a-OK.  Apparently this is going to be one of those albums that will grow on us, let's see then.

Within 3 minutes you will have caught this fantastic earworm that goes like this:

I'm gonna bring a little hell
I'm gonna bring a little heaven
You just keep wanting more
With your blood and your whore
I'm gonna bring a little hell
I'm gonna bring a little heaven
It's a beautiful tragedy
You wanna be sick like me
'Cause I can bring a little hell

Now don't tell me I didn't warn you.

Music Tuesday #083: The Belgian Stooges

When everything is the same and you can't find any change in an endless monotone landscape you would be bored to death.  That is why people go to the sea or climb mountains.  When there is an end, a cravasse, a feature which is unique there you will find mankind.  We need something else to feel alive.  I will give you La Muerte this week.   Although the name sounds like they're a Latin band, they're definitely not. Do you know them?  They have been a band from Brussels since 1983.  And just like Brussels who gets its character by being squeezed between the Flemish, Walloon and European expat forces, these guys have been molded by many musical trends and influences.  As a result, think blues meets heavy-metal, with some synth thrown for good measure.  This is not for the fainthearted. But this does cleanse the soul. La Muerte - Crash Baby, Crash https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NR3SH6lGBZk

Music Tuesday #176: Success is a fleeting moment

This week marks the 4th year that this blog has been running.  Countless times I have almost given up, the stress of coming up with new songs and writing something about it is not a mere trifle. This week I was thinking about bands that missed their opportunity to become hugely successful, not that you must pursue this of course.  But sometimes bands disappear from the scene just before they will make it.  And that's a pity. The band I present to you split just when their breakthrough was imminent.  Maybe, in true punk style, they didn't want success?  I don't blame them.  Ultimately everyone should be allowed to make that choice.  Success is not a guarantee for happiness I guess.

Music Tuesday #212: Welcome to the AA

This band is not neutral, this song certainly isn't.  I like music that has something to say.  Enjoy. Anti-Flag - American Attraction (Acoustic) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6INbXgIB6P0 Anti-Flag - American Attraction (Original version) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w008c1-fHIk
