I think this song is all about the key to becoming an overrated band: Please Play This Song on the Radio NOFX We wrote this song, it's not too short, not too long It's got back-up vocals in just the right places It's got a few oohs and ahhs It takes a little pause Just before I sing the anthem Please play this song on the radio Almost every line is sung on time Almost every verse ends in a rhyme The only problem we had was writing enough words But that's okay, because the chorus is Coming up again now Please play this song on the radio Please play this song on the radio Right about this time Some shit head will be drawin a fat fuckin' line Over the title on the back sleeve What an asshole! So Mr. DJ I hope you've already made your segue Or the FCC's gonna take a shit right on your head Can't play this song on the radio Can't play this song on the radio Sorry for the foul language. It's art, right? -- Ian posted by: juniperflux (reply) post date: 05.03.04 (3:18 am) Reply to: newbie Thanks for your list... although, I think some stoa songs can be snuck in here ~ even though technically they are a neoclassical band. posted by: juniperflux (reply) post date: 05.03.04 (3:19 am) Reply to: brogonzo Absolutely. :) posted by: chicalookate (reply) post date: 05.03.04 (5:54 am) What first came to mind was Concrete Blond.. Neco Case's song "Pretty Girls" might work. I am blanking on others right now... but I am sure I can scrounge up a few more. posted by: jenxer (reply) post date: 05.03.04 (12:20 pm) Girl vocals & dark music. Hmm... One of my standbys is Delerium. I listen to Siouxsie & the Banshees, Switchblade Symphony, Xymox (some female lead songs), and now my mind is blanking out 'cause I'm at work. And it's Monday. And I don't have the personal well-developed indie archive. And by the way, I remember you said you'd burn a cd or 2 for me over a year ago. After reading about the 40 bands that I must listen to on this blog, I'd love a compolation from you. :-) If I think of more, I will add another post. posted by: newbie (reply) post date: 05.03.04 (2:43 pm) Charlotte Church is doing a girls of gothic complication. Should be interesting. posted by: juniperflux (reply) post date: 05.03.04 (2:59 pm) Reply to: newbie Whoa! That sounds cool! I hope you will hook me up with a copy, dude. :) posted by: juniperflux (reply) post date: 05.03.04 (3:01 pm) Reply to: jenxer Haaa... well, 2 years is about my turn-around time. :) Actually, maybe you can send me a list of the bands you would like (or at least any that come to mind), and I will make you one with those plus a few surprises. :) posted by: newbie (reply) post date: 05.03.04 (6:16 pm) good luck jenxer posted by: juniperflux (reply) post date: 05.03.04 (6:29 pm) Reply to: newbie wow... somebody is being mean. posted by: ferriman (reply) post date: 05.03.04 (6:45 pm) great blog! very interesting juniperflux! posted by: hardtoimagine (reply) post date: 05.04.04 (9:14 am) Definitely Evanescence. I would also include Tori Amos. She has some pretty dark lyrics at times. posted by: jenxer (reply) post date: 05.04.04 (9:32 am) Reply to: hardtoimagine Oooo. Yeah, especially Tori Amos' version of '97 Bonnie and Clyde off of Stangle Girls. Haunting and Creepy! posted by: hardtoimagine (reply) post date: 05.04.04 (1:06 pm) Reply to: jenxer That's actually the song I had in mind when I wrote that! posted by: jenxer (reply) post date: 05.04.04 (1:56 pm) I can't believe that the first band I didn't think of was Romeo Void. But there it is - popping into my head just now. posted by: shadowmusic (reply) post date: 05.04.04 (7:25 pm) For those interested in a list of artists who make dark music with female vocals, one place to start is here: http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach/1546/goth-music.html posted by: blondebondgirl (reply) post date: 05.05.04 (8:21 am) now when you say dark, how dark are we going? are we going like evanescence dark or alanis morisette dark? posted by: blondebondgirl (reply) post date: 05.05.04 (8:22 am) well, ill say bif naked, because she's awesome. she's pretty dark i think. posted by: juniperflux (reply) post date: 05.05.04 (5:24 pm) Reply to: blondebondgirl i guess i don't really consider alanis "dark" but then i suppose some of her subject matter is. in general, i think its up to your interpretation. i'm flexible. :) posted by: cmaze (reply) post date: 05.06.04 (3:15 pm) i am a big fan of your blog!! i love reading your reviews and thinking about your questions. i wuv woo! ;-) lol posted by: juniperflux (reply) post date: 05.07.04 (3:33 am) Reply to: cmaze thanks! I appreciate your comments! :) posted by: ScarlettGKPi (reply) post date: 05.07.04 (6:41 pm) Evanescence who by the way is phenomenal. I have a post on my blog about them only!! I love this blog by the way! posted by: SheSpecies (reply) post date: 05.08.04 (1:44 pm) This is one of my favourite kinds of music. The first that come to mind for me are: Lamb 12 Rounds Switchblade Symphony Jack Off Jill Lords Of Acid Tori Amos Vanessa Daou (a few of her songs) Lacuna Coil Faith and the Muse Siouxsie and the Banshees Delirium Portishead Everything but the Girl (a couple of mixes re-done by Massive Attack) posted by: SheSpecies (reply) post date: 05.08.04 (1:51 pm) Oh shiznat. I totally forgot to put one of my faves of all time on that list... PJ Harvey. posted by: jonathan (reply) post date: 05.08.04 (7:31 pm) Unfortunately, lead singer Suzanne Perry left LSD a couple of years ago. Ryan Lum (the other half of the band) continued with a new vocalist and new name Love Spirals (original, huh?) but things were bever really the same. posted by: juniperflux (reply) post date: 05.09.04 (10:27 am) Reply to: jonathan I love how that's the one thing you noticed... posted by: RedTigress (reply) post date: 05.10.04 (4:58 pm) would evanessance count as dark music? |
