And finding this song, by ASP. Love it!



Niiice.  :plus:

That doesn't seem to be the full version though, I looked up the lyrics and translation, and it fades out on the last verse before the end.

Take it you liekiee then raxis? I have literally been playing that track on repeat. So often and so loud that my old man has been bitching me out non stop, and every moment I so much as go for a bong or to take a slash interfering with volume setting. Trying to demand I turn it down to such a volume I cannot hear it.

I got a liking for the band ASP after buying their album schwartzes schmetterling one day whilst out on a hefty belter of IV ethylphenidate (NO not ritalin, the ethyl homolog, not bad I daresay and decided to update my CD music collection. Makes me think of the large hawkmoth flying around thats trapped in the place but needs rescuing. Yet I as yet cannot. I can't catch the wee devil. So at the time, I had enough to burn a bit on a few CDs, so I did, looked for some katatonia stuff I wanted, found it, but found this as well amongst the new new stuff. Or at least, schwartzes schmetterling, hasn't got this on it. But this, I like. Been belting it out on manual repeat, interspersed with porcelain and the tramps, some disturbed,  some of the rock-ier steeleye span tracks (you might well not get this lot if you aren't a brit)

That and the songs 'leftovers' and 'gasoline' by PATC, as well as some jack off jill (check em that bitch fucking owns) lollirot is a class track by them. And some kittie. Pretty much my background entertainment whilst I've beavered away in the lab all day (and night, bar a few hours...really been throwing myself into my work these days, it helps keep me from being depressed for want of..certain changes in life.

Yep, I like melodic fantasy metal. Or whatever the official name for this stuff is. I played that track on repeat for a little while tonight. Not too loud though because WolFish is not as keen on it as I am and he was in the other room working.

My other musical obsession tonight was Hanggai - Baifang. Is that your tastes?



I don't know Schwartz Schmetterling. There's a Japanese group called Schwartz Stein that I like but that's an entirely different thing.

black butterfly (meaning of schwartz schmetteling) is by ASP again, they use the 'schwartze schmetterling' motif over and over in their stuff. Look on their youtube tracks and you will see a ghostly black butterfly repeatedly. That is the literal translation of the words, I do not know what it means to them personally.
But strikes me as ephemeral. That much seems clear.

Just listening to your link, after going w/ the laptop to the temp. lab and sticking it on (my old man HATES the sound from this box's speakers even on a level i can barely, barely describe as audible. Unfortunately I do not speak...mongolian? is it?  The ethnic look of the performers, going from the facies and eye canting seems mongolian. Correct or otherwise?

Yeah, it's Mongolian.

I don't speak it, but I don't speak German either and I like the music. Actually I like a lot of foreign music. It's good for when I'm working, when understanding words in lyrics would get in the way. So I pick stuff for tone and melody and sound.

Be warned, that ASP track, has a way of worming its way into your head and not leaving any time soon. Still hasn't.

Thanks Lestat, that's a good song and the good thing that happened today was that I listened to it. :)

No worries ren. Just listening to that a few moments ago for about the third or fourth time in a row, while I rolled and am smoking my rollie.

Now got this on- Porcelain and the Tramps-my leftovers.

Just found a 200ml bottle of tincture of opium, which I had completely and totally forgotten about.

And knocked it back in one shot, washed down with a little chocolate fudge brownie milkshake, because it has a habit of stinging moderately strongly, due to its having an alcohol content of 22%.

Found this song:
(ASP-Sweet Gwendoline)  Don't forget the video, its top notch.

Son turned 13! I have TWO teenagers and all three minions are in double-digits after youngest turned 10 last week.

Crazy, I'm halfway to crazy
Suicide would waste me
Homicide would break me

Tongue tied and tied to the tongue
Oh, is life as bad as dreams
I guess that's just the way it seems
