FoW was my wife and I first date… Irving Plaza.

Adam is missed. A super talented songwriter.

Their concert was my first official date with my spouse. The Aqua Bats opened. They played at La Luna in Portland, which to this day is still the best venue I've ever experienced. I fully agree, they are freaking fantastic live!

Awww...now I miss La Luna again (I am still partial to Satyricon, but La Luna was awsome). And The Aqua Bats.

Day 22: A song from the '00s

When I think Avant Garde, I think of one instrument in particular; the electric violin. Taking a symbol of the classical and smashing it against the wall is cathartic, poetic, creative.

Emilie Autumn is a virtuoso violinist who plays something called industrial neo-victorian music. It is steampunk and lace. It is heavy, screeching machinery. It is raw and stripped and horrific and captivating.

Manic Depression is a track from her 2007 instrumental double album Laced/Unlaced, where she combines the unique, futuristic sound of the electric violin with a traditional Harpischord, a proto-piano popular through the baroque era, where the strings are plucked as opposed to hit with a hammer like with modern pianos.
Separated by more than 500 years, the anachronistic contrast between these two instruments is maddeningly beautiful.

She captures the essence of her illness in two very distinct voices, played simultaneously, in a never ending battle with each other. Music can be both beautiful and violent, so, while Harrison made his guitar weep, Autumn wrings death rattles from her violin.

Emilie Autumn - Manic Depression

I had the fortune of seeing her live once, some 20 years ago. It was a four-hour long macabre jumble of burlesque performance, stage-play, insane music and emotion so raw it still feels fresh when I think back on it. An absolute delight.

I love Emilie Autumn. Saw her on he FLAG (Fight Like A Girl) tour. It was truly an amazing experience.

I missed that one! I bet it was. It was such a great album. She's been teasing a few new singles lately, I really hope she's going to put out another album again!

 

[UnquietDreams]

Oh Yeahhh...Nicole and The Dolls know about Love....2005...Yeah Baby Plus Two..

With the hook based on "Swass," from Sir Mix-A-Lot's first album. Which is about as much as I know of that one, as ubiquitous as it was.

[Lord Pmann]

Song from the 2000s.

Damien Rice- Rootless Tree

This is my all time favourite song. I don’t think I can name another song with more emotion than this. It’s amazing. If you don’t feel this song, you are a robot and have a heart of shit and splinters.

Maybe it’s less shit and splinters than you think. Maybe it’s poo and twigs.
