Now Listening To, You know the drill Options

Well, I missed this good ol' thread, so I am pulling out My Necromancer robe and raising the dead. Anyways, I believe the last post, other than the closer, was

Don't mind if I old-school punk this place up a bit do you?

Garden of Serenity - Ramones.

The Ramones have almost no musical talent, but they are somehow still awesome. It baffles even me."

Not at all, especially if its the Ramones. But no musical talent? They were pretty fresh when they started, but they grew amazing. Remember when they covered "What a wonderful world"? It was dead on with punk stylings.

Well, I'll see your Garden of Serenity with a Happy Birthday Mr. Burns by the Ramones, and add a We're a Happy Family by the one and only, Ramones.

Trans-Siberian Orchestra- Carol of the Bells


No lyrics this time, it's an intrumental. (hence the "Orchestra" part) Other than that, really, 'nuff said. I think just about anybody who's heard it can agree with me here. This song just rocks. It's an hard rock version of Carol of the Bells, with bits and pieces of other Christmas charols, in rock form, mixed into it, both in the background and foreground. I most definately reccomend listening to this, it's one of the better ways to spend three and a half minutes that I can think of. And, of course, this song matches the season.

I have to say this is the first time I've ever found myself headbanging to classical music. Except Beethoven. This is semi classical, semi rock, has piano, electric guitar, it's really a perfect blend of the two.

This song is sometimes partially attributed to Metallica, but I have my doubts that this is Metallica. Not because it's not good enough, this does kinda seem like Metallica material music, and the rock is Metallica style, but I think this one was the Trans-Siberian Orchestra all on it's own, they are certainly talented enough for it, and I've seen no real proof that Metallica had a hand in this.

Here is there official site. Trans-Siberian Orchestra I'm sure you can see from their intro music their general style, they most definately rock.

Rock ON!
According to their schedule, they'll be here in Buffalo the day before my birthday! How's that for an awsome birthday present?

Done ranting about them, but one last time, ROCK ON! And definately give them a listen.
