Music Questionaire
1. What are you listening to right now?
Combichrist: Sex Drogen und Industrial
2. What song makes you sad?
Malice Mizer: Bel Air. There's something about this song that just...I don't know. Knowing what it means, in conjunction with the emotion in the vocalist's voice, you can hear his grief, his heartbreak. It's so sad. (I actually just cried listening to it. Damn pregnant hormones.)
My Chemical Romance: Cancer So cheesy, but this song gets to me SO BAD. The only song off Black Parade that I simply cannot listen to, unless I'm feeling particularly masochistic. It's so simple and poignantly upsetting.
Now turn away. 'Cause I'm awful just to see.
3. What is the most annoying song in the world?
Eminem featuring Rihanna: Love the way you Lie
Okay. So I liked this song the first time it came out. Even after the first couple million times. But then I started working at Radioshack and it started playing literally every hour on the hour. One day I got on the bus and I heard this song coming out of five different pairs of headphones. I hid in the back and cranked Tool.
4. Your all time favorite band?
My Chemical Romance
Loud and proud.
5. Your newly discovered band is?
Blind Guardian My baby loves them!
6. Best female voice?
Okay, you guys are going to bust my balls for this.
Tarja Turunen
This woman has such a powerful vocal range that it absolutely blows my mind. Even if you hate Nightwish, I don't care, just click the link. This is Tarja's rendition of Ave Maria. It's just...outstanding. Perfect. And I'm damn picky about Ave Maria.
7. Best male voice?
Japan.
Gackt I'm saying Gackt because of the pretty, his voice is just so...powerful, and emotive.
Kyo Kyo's vocal range also amazes me. First off, it doesn't just make you relate to an emotion, it grabs you by the balls and makes you feel it. It amazes me how he can go from harrowing shrieks to something like this. Link is Ain't Afraid to Die, one of my all time favourite Diru songs. I dare you to listen to the song in its entirety and not feel anything. Not want to burst out crying and laughing at the same time. Maybe that's the pregnant talking again. Lol.
8. Music type you find yourself listening to most?
Ahm, I go through phases. Variations of rock and metal with some industrial thrown in for variation. Lately, a lot of power metal.
9. What do you listen to, to hype you up?
Angelspit: Wreak Havoc (Stromkern) GOD I love this song. Dude. I used to listen to this while exercising (you know, back when I wasn't knocked up and could actually exercise vigorously) and would just go freakin' nuts. Bang out like 5 miles on the treadmill and shit without feeling it.
Aural Vampire: Economical Animal Superstar This song is basically the equivalent of a cup of coffee for me. I just want to boogie when I hear it :D
The Doors: Roadhouse Blues
I was at a bar last month and there was this cover band. They started up Roadhouse Blues. I shrieked. Jumped up. Grabbed my friend, dragged her over, and danced my ass off. They did a really good job of it, too.
MSI: Shut Me Up
:D
10. What do you listen to when you want to calm down?
Pink Floyd: Speak to me/Breathe/On the Run This is the ultimate Blunt Song: kick your feet up, smoke weed, and chiiiillll oooouuuuut.
Led Zeppelin: Since I've Been Loving You Ditto.
Oh yes, and any piano renditions of songs that I like.
Fantastic Piano Covers:
My Chemical Romance: The Jetset Life is Gonna Kill You It's so different from the original, yet this take on it is just... daaaaaamn. Especially after 2:50 it's just like, gah, I wanna cry.
My Chemical Romance: Sleep I feel like this song was made for the piano.
Silent Hill OST: Not Tomorrow (aka the music that plays when Lisa dies.) I dig this cover, dude did a good job with mixing in bits from Theme of Laura (Silent Hill 2). I even put it on my iTunes.
And finally, which I think is genius. Cradle of Filth: Her Ghost in the Fog It's beautiful, but BE CAREFUL, there's a shriek at the end he put in for a gag. Scared the HELL out of me the first time!
11. Last gig/concert you went to?
I don't go to a lot of shows. I saw AbSynthe, Broken Neck Lullaby, and Deadstar Assembly at Hell like last year.
12. Band you find yourself listening to the most right now?
I've been on a Jack off Jill binge lately. And MCR. But there's always with the MCR.
13. Most hated band?
Blood on the Dance Floor This TRASH, and trash like it, is what is destroying today's youth. I just want to find these fuckers and kill them. Seriously.
14. Song that makes you think?
Tool: 46 and 2 Okay. I just don't get what Maynard's talking about, here. The first verse and variations thereof indicate that the song is about shedding the skin of a former self: change. I don't understand the bit about human interpretation of the shadow, though, and nor do I get all the Jungian shit (or the meaning of the numbers themselves: 46 and 2) A long time ago, someone told me that 46 and 2 was a suicide thing: 46 pills plus 2 equals death. Having discussed this with my husband-to-be, he brought up the extremely valid point of Maynard not touching upon a subject as "petty" as suicide. I don't know. Someone explain this shit to me.
15. Band that you think the world should love as much as you do?
ANGELSPIT Seriously, I love them. And no one else does.
Raise your bony little fists on high
Scratch my anger into your eyes.
Wake the DEAD, it's time to DIE
Bang, bang, silver hammer
GO.FOR.THE. JUGULAR!!!!
16. Coolest music video?
Lol, if you actually thought I was going to pick one.
Prodigy: Smack my Bitch Up Because anything banned from MTV is automatically cool. Actually, let me watch this again right quick, it's been awhile. (Unfortunately, it's censored, the original in all its nude glory is no longer on YouTube.)
Placebo: Meds If you've never heard of Placebo, or have not seen this video...just watch it. Just do it. I swear, you won't be disappointed.
Cradle of Filth: Nymphetamine THE HAMLET REFERENCES :D :D Also, I know this song is clearly about sex, but I think it's just so pretty and romantic XD;
My Chemical Romance: Honey, This Mirror Isn't Big Enough For The Two Of Us This music video, though it did not begin my love affair with MCR, certainly began my lust affliction with Gerard Way. Also, it's one gigantic Audition tribute and I fucking love that movie. (This is off the best MCR album in my opinion, as well. This song is one of my favourites.)
17. Music video with the most babe watch?
Mmmmmmmmm.
Kidney Thieves: Zerospace
I didn't even have to think about that one. Oh god. What I'd give to be in that bathtub with her. Gaaah. She'ssofuckinghot. The way she rocks that tub is just like "Ohhhhemgee I am HAWT look at me" Okay! -drool-

That it shouldn't exist.
34. What do you think of Death metal?
I remember this one time I said something like "Our child's gonna be death metal duuuude" totally joking and my fiancee got all pissed, saying that Death Metal is trash and that Black Metal's where it's at or vise versa. Idk. I remember thinking "what's the difference and who cares?" Metal's metal.
