HhH), dj babyboi, dh GReddy, dj kurvy, dj 2, dj trippy, dj x0duzz, revolution boi, ect. it's mostly underground and considered a separate genre from the florida breakbeat scene (dj baby anne, dj acid aka johnny cage, ect.). 3gnmedia and hypnotika have alot of the music still. there was another is another forum but he turned his forum into a WoW forum... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v290/djl...nshots/bb01.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v290/djl...nshots/bb02.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v290/djl...nshots/bb03.jpg the only crystal method albums i have is legion of doom and community service.

Ghadrack Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I'm really happy with the new The Prodigy album that came out last week, borrowed it from a friend because I wasn't sure if they still had any gas in the tank, my copy should be at the house tonight. The new Isis record is out in a week, I'm looking forward to that and the new record by Big Business the week after. Slayer is in the studio as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarja Turunen "Smells Like Teen Spirit" (Nirvana cover) It doesn't sound much different than Tori Amos's version from soon after the song initially came out. It's a little unoriginal, maybe, but I don't see what's so revolting about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taksraven Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Not that I cared much for Nirvana, but this cover is revolting. Oh, how Tarja has fallen after Nightwish fired her four years ago... Tarja Turunen "Smells Like Teen Spirit" (Nirvana cover) I think that the first rule of covering songs by other bands should be NEVER cover a bands biggest hit. UNLESS, you are really sure of yourself or have a very interesting idea of what to do with the song. So many artists fall into this trap of covering another bands most popular or successful song. A better idea would be to cover a song that was an album-only track, or is a little bit more rare or obscure. A lot of bands have covered "Have a Cigar" by Pink Floyd. It is one of their greatest songs but is relatively obscure compared to other tracks by the band. Other musical artists are attracted to the song because of its lyrical content, which slags off at record companies and record company executives. Another cover I really enjoy is "Cars", originally by Gary Numan but then covered brilliantly by Fear Factory. The cover is especially good because Numan himself takes part in the song and the videoclip. It sounds great. Taksraven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cover is especially good because Numan himself takes part in the song and the videoclip. It sounds great. Speaking of good Numan covers, Marilyn Manson's cover of Down In The Park is one of the greatest. It even inspired Gary Numan to make a more updated "gothy" version. And I am not even a MM fan I see in your sig you like VAST, good band, never got into the third album though. The wife and I caught them live long time ago. Fun show.

Valkyrie Hunter D Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Ever since I saw that damned Lincoln TV commercial, I was on a frantic search for the cover of Peter Shilling's Major Tom-it didn't take me too long to find it: Normally, Shiny Toy Guns isn't my cup of tea but I really dig this remake with a female vocalist. Although being a child of the 80's, the original will always have a special place in my memory. (And to a lesser extent, so does David Bowie's Space Oddity).

Excillon Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 You'll take Peter Schiling over Bowie? Blasphemer! I wouldn't take Schilling over Bowie. I like Bowie, however, anyone remember the Ziggy Stardust cover done by Bauhaus? Soooo much better than Bowie's version, of course, Peter Murphy is probably one of the greatest voices ever. I'm going to have to pull out the old Bauhaus CD's now and give them a spin. New Prodigy album was surprisingly good... Been listening to lately: Alice In Chains : Dirt (revisiting my teenage angst I guess) Killing Joke : Pandemonium (probably the most underrated album of all time) Skinny Puppy: Cleanse, Fold + Manipulate Pig : Genuine American Monster Fugazi : Repeater Front 242: Pulse Depeche Mode : Violator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziggy Stardust is an easy song to play, but it's really difficult to play well. Bauhaus played it very well indeed, but they don't top Bowie's version in my opinion. Of course, a lot of that is due to the fact that if I hear Ziggy Stardust, and it DOESN'T immediately zoom into Suffragette City, it feels like half the song's been cut off. I will say that I like Bauhaus's version of Telegram Sam better than T.Rex's, and I like T.Rex's A LOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True...I think the reason I feel Bauhaus version is better is because it was performed by 4 very talented musicians. It's rare when a band comes together with each member being such a visionary and superior artist. Now, I'm not taking anything away from Bowie, who is an excellent vocalist and even more talented songwriter. I just think Bauhaus's execution of the song was better, due to the fact that Murphy is the better singer, and the band themselves are superior in every way to Bowie's band at the time.

I like Bauhaus a lot (and even hung out with David J one evening...nice guy), but I wouldn't say that they were better than Bowie and his band at the time. I doubt Mick Ronson could've pulled off some of the stuff that Daniel Ash did, but likewise, I doubt Daniel Ash could've pulled off a lot of Ronson's riffs. As for Bowie and Peter Murphy's vocal stylings, it's pretty much apples and oranges. Bowie has more range, though, I think. And I think he's a far better lyricist. (Musically, "In the Flat Field" is my favorite Bauhaus album, but some of the lyrics really make me cringe...) But saying that I think Bauhaus isn't quite as good as Bowie isn't any slag on them in my book. Bowie is really in the top of top five for me, so it's kind of like saying that a very good movie isn't quite as good as Fellini at his best. It's still a high compliment even to be considered worthy of comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still a high compliment even to be considered worthy of comparison. Well, I know you can't really compare the two, except for that one song they both did a version of. I don't know, the lyrics, the notes, I always felt Bowie's version wasn't aggresive enough, and Bauhaus made it darker sounding, aggresive, and even a smidge of punkish angst to it. As for talent, they're all talented, don't get me wrong. Of course not everyone can be as talented as Pop Will Eat Itself... On another note, we all talk about music we like, what about the music we like that we don't admit to anyone we like?

I just think Bauhaus's execution of the song was better, due to the fact that Murphy is the better singer, and the band themselves are superior in every way to Bowie's band at the time. Wern't Bauhaus born out of the same punk movement as Joy Division? Basically four ordinary guys who happened to be in the right place at the right time and stumbled into brilliance. Bauhaus had an emphasis on live preformance pieces tho, but from what I remember both bands use to attend each others gigs. I actually prefer the Bauhaus cover of Ziggy as well, but I was never a huge Bowie fan, but was a huge Bauhaus fan. Telegram Sam not so much but Rosegarden Funeral Of Sores again wins out in my humble (and biased) opinion. Peter Murphy's earliaer solo I stuff I like as well, especially 'Deep' - I was totally mesmerised when I first heard "Cuts You Up" (awful video tho). I like Bauhaus a lot (and even hung out with David J one evening...nice guy),.. Lucky bugger, arn't the bass player and drummer brothers? I think the J is his middle initial... The drummer (Haskins?) was the one who looked 'normal' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chas Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 ust discovered this band "Aural Vampire" a few weeks ago on youtube. Apparently they've played a few Anime conventions in various countries ( the latest being Katsucon, I believe) Anyway I cannot get enough of these two songs do yourself a favour and give them a go. I'm not going to try and label them as far as genre as that has become increasingly difficult - suffice it to say that the music is created electronically and it has stong dancibility with some aggressive overtones whilst the lyrics tend to be on the darker side. (now you're curious right? ) If you click let me know what you think, Shonan Zoku Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an early 90's industrial band "Institute for the criminally insane" and the song is called "Slasher". It's the song playing in Hitman Blood money, when you go to club hell.
