The Big 4 of Metal

After a while of posting mainly of electronic and dance music with the exception of Taylor Swift, we decided to introduce the heavy and dark side of music. Metal, is one of the genres we highly praise and we are sure some of you also do it, so to decently introduce it to our blog we decided to dedicate a post to the Great 4 of Thrash Metal -Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer and Anthrax-
Thrash metal is a genre derived from heavy metal, characterized by insanely fast and heavy guitar riffs, loud mindblowing drums and dark lyrics. Out of the vast list of bands that can be mentioned, we can say 4 of them are really outstanding out of them, previously mentioned.

Metallica- Is one of the most succesful bands of the metal industry. it provided us with various moments of headbanging and made us wish we could play the guitar as well as  Kirk Hammett. Leaded by James Hetfield in vocals and rhythm guitar, Robert Trujillo in bass, Lars Ulrich in Drums and Kirk Hammett in the lead guitar. Some memorable songs: Master of Puppets, One, Enter Sandman, Nothing Else Matters, Fade To Black, Trapped Under Ice, The Day That Never Comes. *

Megadeth- What can be called the esssence of modern Thrash Metal. Maintaining its heavy, fast songs with ironical and sarcastic lyrics, praised by some, hated by others. Has achieved a high status among metal fans. Leaded by Dave Mustaine in vocals and rhythm guitar, Dave Ellefson in bass, Shawn Drover in drums and Chris Broderick in lead guitars. Memorable songs: Peace Sells, A Tout Le Monde, Symphony of Destruction, Tornado Of Souls, Sweating Bullets, This Day We Fight, Sudden Death. *

Slayer- The living image of pure hell, the way we see it. The band from which not one single album is considered anything but Thrash. One of the loudest, fastes and darkest bands in the whole industry. It is praised for their outstanding live shows and heavy records. Leaded by Tom Araya in bass and vocals, Jeff Hanneman in lead guitars, Kerry King in rhythm guitars and Dave Lombardo in drums. outstanding songs: Raining Blood, Angel of Death, Hell Awaits, Dittohead, South of Heaven, Stain of Mind, World Painted Blood.

Anthrax- An underated giant. A band known for its insane metal anthems which basically symbolized the whole Thrash movement. It is a decent carrier of the genre. Leaded by Joey Belladonna in vocals, Scott Ian in rhythmic guitar, Rob Caggiano in lead guitars, Frank Bello in bass and Carlie Benante in drums. Memorable songs: Madhouse, Indians, Caught in a Mosh, Antisocial, I Am The Law

YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!

Like a BOSS

So... the other day talking to a friend of us, suddenly showed us a video he claimed made him laugh in a way he ended up sitting there emmiting no sound and clapping like a retarded seal (he actually did).

This video will actually make you LOL in epic magnitudes, specially if you are a Battlefield 3 fanboy. The original song belongs to The Lonely Island. Enjoy it.

Oh, by the way

GTA V - The most anticipated mayhem of the year

For all of those who spent hours driving and flying around Lo Santos in GTA San Andreas, being chased by the police and gangsters some years ago; you will be doing it again this year.

Yeah,  we bet you guys are excited for this new realease; we are, obviously after seeing that almost real adaptation of LA in a video game in which you are allowed to do anything you can imagine.

This GTA follows the previous release GTA 4 in which we controlled a russian guy called Niko Bellic who tried to solve his family problems as well as other struggles in Liberty CIty.

To the date we dont have any other information of the game than this trailer, but we can say that it will be one of the most anticipated releases of the year. We've heard some comments of the game such as CJ being the main character of this game, others say its Tony, but all we can say is that whoever it is it will be one of the best experiences creating mayhem in this open world called Los Santos

The game is expected to be released this April for PS3, XBox 360 and PC

Florence + The Machine - Sake It Out

An amazing song from an amazing band. Florence + The Machine is a british indie pop band fronted by the talented singer Florence Welch. This band has produced music since a while ago, but has been recently acquiring more attention after the release of their album Ceremonials, from which songs such as "Shake It Out", "No Light, No Light" and "What The Water Gave Me" have been famous singles. We can say that this band has a really soft, melodic sound and at the same time has a strong, secure voice provided by Florence with very deep meaningfull lyrics.

We highky recomend this band if you want to escape the everyday stress and somehow express your feelings.

Sick Russian - Human Skrillex Reproducer

The other day, while we were searching on YouTube some videos of Skrillex, we encountered ourselves with this video of this guy who can actually.... BEATBOX "reproduce" DUBSTEP. Yeah, we were somehow freaked out but at the same time really impressed by him. He can reproduce exactly the same effects Skrillex uses in many of his songs with no difficulty and combine them to create a really sick track you'll like to hear over and over again.

Here's the video, and we can assure you it will blow your mind.  

Taylor Swift ft. The Civil Wars - Safe and Sound (The Hunger Games)

So, as we mentioned last week, the music video for Safe and Sound by Taylor Swift ft. The Civil Wars premiered February 13. This song will be featured in The Hunger Games movie sountrack. The movie is an adaptation of the novel by Suzanne Collins.
 In our opinion, this song actually fits in one specific part of the book, which we won't mention to prevent spoiling the story to some of you guys that might be reading the book. We also think that this song can show us the great lyrical power of Taylor which blends perfectly with the accoustic guitar and drums of the melody as well as her ability to give a distinctive sound to any song she participates in.

So while we wait for the movie premiere we hope you like the song as much as we did, and enjoy the music video.
