K, so like, I'm bored, and I have nothing to do rather than wait for my sushi. Therefore, I will just post lyrics to songs that I really liked/ put me thinking/ caught my attention/ etc.

I'll be adding more when I'm bored.

Nadie Se Atreve - Cultura Profética

No se por que nadie se atreve
dime por que nadie se atreve ya
a hacer lo que les llene... aca.
nadie se atreve ya.
y no se por que nadie se atreve
dime por que nadie se atreve ya
a hacer algo decente, algo de musica...

Y tu que crees
Que es lo que esperabas de mi escuchar?
No soy de esa gente que canta y no piensa, ni siente, ni ve, no.
Yo lo se hacer me se expresa, la musa es mi razon de ser.
Solo se crear a mis sentidos fiel, nada comercial.

Aunque hay,
hay una escena; hay una escena,
que no come cuento con la mierda comercial.
Y no basa su musa en venderte nooooooo.
Solo en expresar sin miedo a opinar de lo que pasa y lo que tiene
que cambiar. Que cree en el arte puro y se mantiene real.

Pue por que hay tanto pop, lolly pop, pop corn...
pop tu camisa, pop tu pantalon.
el pop azucarado, pop rosita en un helado,
hay tanto pop que he vomitado pop
y esnap cracker pop, je! que imaginacion (corta!)
con tanto imagen y la mente ya no importa
y quien soporta, no se?
es solo el que se pasa tó el dia sentao viendo en la T.V.
tanto pop, lolly pop, pop corn
pop tu camisa, pop tu pantalón
el pop un engaño, pop realmente me hace daño
hay tanto pop que me vomito pop, pop volcón pop
no mezcla con (hip hop) ni con reagge, ni con jazz, ni con soul.
yo no me tiro de ese lado, el pop a mi me suena empaquetado!
(its real , its real) ah ah ah ah ah
Hace falta musica!! Hace falta musica real !

Saba dab da du dab de....... saba dep,,, dep be dep, OH OH ah ah ahhhh
Saba dep oh ah oh ah ah ah oh ....

Porque ya nadie quiere ser, nadie quiere decir.
Generalizar no es bueno pero ya no aguanto este sentir.
que haya tanta musica buena y lo que se escucha diario no,
no vale la pena, no vale la pena y que eso se venda
a mi me da verguenza ajena
que la musica real tenga que JODERSE y sudar!
mientras los que posan y solo posan se la guillan de derrochar
pa presumir y aparentar.

Hace falta musica real (its real!)

Saba dab da du dab de....... saba dep,,, dep be dep, OH OH ah ah ahhhh
Saba dep.... oh ah oh ah ah ah oh .... (x2)

No se por que nadie se atreve
dime por que nadie se atreve ya
a hacer lo que les llene... aca.
nadie se atreve ya.
y no se por que nadie se atreve
dime por que nadie quiere ya
hacer algo decente, algo de musica...

Sorry for those who do not speak Spanish, but essentially, it talks about the current state of music. How pop music is now everywhere and peole get their brains washed with all the comercial music there is. The title can be translated to "Why doesn't anybody dare?" Which says that why doesn't anybody dare to do music just for the beauty of it and not for money or fame?

Connect the Dots - Ayreon

Ty:
I hugged the wife and drove to work today,
It was only a few miles.
Was in no hurry but the lights were changing up ahead,
So I stepped on the gas.

I checked the Mac,I left it on overnight,
Downloading all the latest files.
Peer-to-peer, the torrent flows into my lap,
And I disconnect.

Ty:
We all know
Arjen:
We all know, no need to remind us
Ty:
We all know
Arjen:
We all know, but won't connect the dots
Ty:
We all know
Arjen:
We all know, locked away inside us
Ty and Arjen:
We are dying for tomorrow, We are living for today

Ty:
I rushed back home to my family,
I got my son a brand new game.
No need to cook, I picked up fast food on the way,
And it's fingerlickin' good.

Have you seen little Steve today?
Guess he's still up there in his room.
But if he comes down, tell him
I'll be right here just staring at the tube
Playing his game.

Ty:
We all know
Arjen:
We all know, no need to remind us
Ty:
We all know
Arjen:
We all know, but won't connect the dots
Ty:
We all know
Arjen:
We all know, locked away inside us
Ty and Arjen:
We are dying for tomorrow, We are living for today

Don't you think it's rather warm tonight?
Especially for the time of year.
I turn up the air pull the sheets up to my chin,
And I close my eyes.

Can't relax, can't fall asleep,
Should I take another pill?
I turn on the lights, light up a cigarette and smile,
I've got it made.

Ty:
We all know
Arjen:
We all know, no need to remind us
Ty:
We all know
Arjen:
We all know, but won't connect the dots
Ty:
We all know
Arjen:

Ty and Arjen:
We are dying for tomorrow, We are living for today

Yup. We all know, there's no need to remind us. The storyline follows a man who doesn't really care overusing energy and downloading illegal torrents, and who also is not worrying about his familly. I'm pretty sure some of us can relate to this, don't deny it, yet, we do not really care, for "We are living for today."

For the Greater Good of God - Iron Maiden

Are you a man of peace
Or man of holy war
Too many sides to you
Don't know wich anymore
So many full of life
But also filled with pain
Don't know just how many
Will live to breathe again

A life that's made to breath
destruction or defense
A mind that's vain corruption
bad or good intent
A wolf in sheep's clothing
Or saintly or sinner
Or some that would believe
A holy war winner

They fire off many shots
and many parting blows
Their actions beyond a reasoning
only god would know
And as he lies in heaven
or it could be in hell
I feel he's somewhere here
or looking from below
But I don't know, I don't know

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well tell me now what war is
Again tell me what life is

More pain and misery in the history of mankind
Sometimes it seems more like
the blind leading the blind
It brings upon us more of famine,death and war
You know religion has a lot to answer for

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well tell me now what war is
Again tell me what life is

And as they search to find the bodies in the sand
They find it's ashes that are
scattered across the land
And as their spirits seem to whistle on the wind
A shot is fired somewhere another war begins

And all because of it you'd think
that we would learn
But still the body count the city fires burn
Somewhere there's someone dying
in a foreign land
Meanwhile the world is crying stupidity of man
Tell me why, tell me why

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well tell me now what war is
Again tell me what life is

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well tell me now what war is
Again tell me what life is

For the greater good of God

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well tell me now what war is
Again tell me what life is

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well tell me now what war is
Again tell me what life is

For the greater good of God

He gave his life for us he fell upon the cross
To die for all of those who never mourn his loss
It wasn't meant for us to feel the pain again
Tell me why, tell me why

Even though I'm not a religious person, I found the lyrics to this Maiden song to be telling the truth. People claim themselves to be religious but they want to convert people, and even get to the point of "holy wars".


Poison - Alice Cooper

Your cruel
Deep eyes
Your blood
Like ice
One look
Could kill
My pain
Your thrill

I wanna love you but I better not touch (don't touch)
I wanna hold you but my senses tell me stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much (too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison

You're poison runnin' through my veins
You're poison, I don't wanna break these chains

Your mouth
So Hot
Your web
I'm caught
Your skin
So wet
Black lace
On Sweat

I hear you callin' and it's needles and pins (and pins)
I wanna hurt you just to hear you screamin' my name
Don't wanna touch you but you're under my skin (deep in)
I wanna kiss you but your lips are venomous poison

You're poison runnin' through my veins
You're poison, I don't wanna break these chains
Poison

One look (one look), could kill (could kill),
My pain, your thrill.

I wanna love you, but I better not touch (Don't touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you, but I want it too much (too much)
I wanna taste you, but your lips are venomous poison

You're poison runnin' through my veins
You're poison, I don't wanna break these chains
Poison

I wanna love you, but I better not touch (Don't touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you, but I wanna too much (too much)
I wanna taste you, but your lips are venomous poison

Yeah
Well I don't wanna break these chains
Poison

Runnin' deep inside my veins
Burnin' deep inside my veins
Poison (Poison)
I don't wanna break these chains

I like it, because it's not the stereotypical love song. I mean, this guy loves the girl so much (I guess you can even call it infatuation) that he's willing to do everything for her to love him, even "hurt you just to hear you screaming my name", but he knows that girl is no good for him.

Well I've been on last.fm for almost 2 years now and my taste has changed dramatically over time. Looking at my top 50 overall I'm really not happy with most of the artist on their. Partly because at first when I discovered a band I loved I would scrobble the shit out of them until they reached a high status on my charts. Nowadays I can't be bothered with how much I scrobble an artist because there's always so much other music I want to check out. So here I am at 2 am listening to Tom Waits wasting the night away writing about what I think about my top 50.
= Looks great on my charts
= I like them but I'm not for 100% in having them high in my charts
= GTFO my charts.

1. Tool
Took me a while for me to love them. Then when they finally grew on me they immediately became one of my favorite bands. All their albums are great even their live album Salival is something worth checking out. And with each album better than the last I can only imagine how amazing their next album will be since 10,000 Days was so perfect.


2. The Cure
Immediately loved them when I first heard Disintegration. There early post-punk stuff is great but I think they hit they're peak with Disintegration. Weak was alright but everything after pretty much sucks. I still haven't checked out everything by them even with over 2000 scrobbles. They have so much material.


3. Opeth
First checked out Still Life. Loved it. Then Damnation. Bored me, except Windowpane. Like Tool it took me awhile before fully appreciating them. Now they've become one of my favorite bands.


4. Pink Floyd
Yeah classic band. Darkside Of The Moon, The Wall, and Animals are all classics to me.


5. A Perfect Circle
I don't really listen to them at all anymore. At first I was just a blind Tool fan loving Maynard's voice and his lyrics, now I think most lyrics are complete bullshit and appreciate artist for their musicianship. These guys are better than your average mainstream rock bands, some nice song writing that sets them apart from simply sounding generic. 3 Libras will always be one of my favorite songs.


6. Katatonia
I'm always an "on again off again" type of relationship with these guys. First heard The Great Cold Distance, loved it at first now I can barely sit through the whole thing. There other albums are the same, except Brave Murder Day which will always be their best. Overall, they have a lot of gems spread out in their albums, the best usually being bonus tracks and CD-singles.


7. Celldweller
I used to listen to this guy all the time. Now I think he is pretty overrated. Being a part of the AMV community is really sickening because everyone considers this guy a genius, pretty much every single song is done to death. Why do people praise this guy for being a one man band? Like there isn't millions of other solo artist who also create great music. He has some great material but I wouldn't call anything he's done a masterpiece. Every song he has released lately has been solid but I really don't think he can create a great album. I'll take a great album over a great song any day.


8. Puscifer
Actually checked him out before APC or Tool. Still love this project. V is for Vagina is a great album but I do think that it is very hit and miss. The stuff he has been putting out lately especially The Humbling River have got to be the best material released on here. I'm liking this new atmospheric direction.


9. Rise Against
My favorite generic nostalgic band. I don't really listen to them at all anymore but I don't mind it when I do.


10. Metallica
Really not sure how they got this high on my charts in the first place. I think they're classic albums for the most part are very overrated. Kill 'em All and ...And Justice for All are pretty good though. When Death Magnetic first released I loved it but since then I've gotten into a lot of other superior metal bands.


11. Eminem
Yeah hes a guilty pleasure. Will always be.


12. Devin Townsend
I completely love this guys work. His insanity is of my liking. Great musicianship. Addicted has also got to be one of my favorite 09 releases.


13. Agalloch
These guys can't release a bad record. Everything they've done is great.


14. King Crimson
Masters of Prog? Yeah In the Court of the Crimson King, Larks Tongue in Aspic and Red. are all essential for every prog lover.


15. Shining
Checked these guys out when I read that fucked up description about their beliefs and live performances, I just had to hear how fucked up this was. I'm glad I did give them a listen. Besides being fucked up V: Halmstad has got to be one of the greatest pieces of music I have ever heard. Every track is mind blowing. I haven't really gave their earlier stuff much of a listen. VI: Klagopsalmer was awful though.


16. Meshuggah
Didn't really want to check them out because how stupid their band pictures look. Chaosphere made me laugh, Jens Kidman sounded like a barking dog and the music just sucked. Catch-33 was a much better experience, their music was kind of annoying but I think that's what inevitably made them great for me....for some reason, don't really know how to describe my feelings toward them. They also became the headliners of the first concert I attended :).


17. Infected Mushroom
First heard the song Artillery which was great. I didn't check out the full album until a long time after which I regret because Vicious Delicious is a damn satisfying album. I don't care about how pop it is compared to how magical their earlier albums are. Infected Popshroom > Infected Mushroom. Not too much of a fan of them, they're live performance was hands down the best I've been too. I also helped advertise for them in their fanmanager street team and won an autographed poster and CD :D.


18. Amon Amarth
Twilight of the Thunder God unleashed my hidden craving for death metal. Now I think it's a pretty boring record. Metal gets old fast man.


19. Jerry Goldsmith
Lol, short lived movie soundtrack craving.


20. Angelspit
Addicting shit. Addicting when I first heard them. Still as addicting now. Even they're new release cleared my disappointment after a few listens. 2nd album has yet to grasp me.


21. My Bloody Valentine
Loveless


22. Beastie Boys
Hell Yeah! Probably a guilty pleasure, isn't it?


23. "Weird Al" Yankovic
Another guilty pleasure, right?


24. Nine Inch Nails
I never really liked them as much as I wanted to. All these scrobbles are a failed attempt for the most part. The Downward Spiral and The Fragile have some good songs but other than that I have never been able to see the magic.


25. Linkin Park
Angry generic emo shit.


26. Joy Division
A truly great band. Ian Curtis wrote some wonderful songs. Lyrics are all fantastic. Simple but hold so much meaning.


27. Ayreon
Gets old after while.


28. Mastodon
They're pretty good. Crack The Skye is such an overrated album it's ridiculous. Leviathan is great.


29. Cynic
Metal Gods!


30. Tom Waits
Absolute genius!


31. maudlin of the Well
Fucking insane band. Toby Driver is a genius.


32. Mindless Self Indulgence
Yeah I considered myself daring for listening to a band like this. They still have a few classics but I don't really listen to them anymore.


33. Modest Mouse
Have some great songs but as albums go they tend to fade with time.


34. John Carpenter
Only around Halloween


35. Scarling.
They are great...I haven't listened to them in a long time now


36. Guns N' Roses
Meh.


37. Shpongle
Should be as high as Infected Mushroom. Great music.


38. Porcupine Tree
I haven't really listened to many albums by them. I love Deadwing and Lightbulb Sun but most of the other stuff I've checked out is pretty boring.


39. Astronautalis
Amazing artist. Barrel Jumping (A Man Of Letters), The Waterfall and The Story of My Life all have got to be some of the greatest songs I've heard.


40. Thousand Foot Krutch
Generic Christian Rock


41. System of a Down
Such a faux pas


42. Vader
They won't be relevant in a couple of months


43. Have a Nice Life
Great album. Great bootleg demo album but recently I'm not feeling what I felt when I first listened months ago.


44. ASHES dIVIDE
Wow something completely shot out of my life.


45. Gojira
Metal that doesn't get boring. Great drumming also.


46. J.Viewz
Local New York band. Chill out album. So great.


47. Unwound
Leaves Turn Inside You is so great but like Have a Nice Life I think I'm growing out of this depressing shit.


48. Dane Cook
Why did I have him to begin with? =(


49. Bill Conti
Short lived Rocky soundtrack addiction. Still great but not something meant for heavy listening.


50. Black Light Burns
I kind of forced myself to like them. They suck. Only New Hunger, Cruel Melody and Lucretia My Reflection are good.



Final Verdict: Only 23 out of 50 artist I am satisfied with =(

I have a dream that one day metal elitists will take their heads out their arses, and realise taste is purely subjective, such that "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all genres are created equal."

I have a dream that one day on the grim frostbitten hills of Norway, the black metalheads and the gangsta rappers will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.

I have a dream that one day even Gothenburg, a place sweltering with shitty melodeath, and rife with generic sellouts, will be transformed into an oasis of progressive soul nurturing music.

I have a dream where bands will not be judged by how 'catchy their riffs are' but by how well they accomplish what they set out to do.

I've had a long list of artists I need to listen to or need to listen to more of sometime for some time now and felt I should put it up on Last.fm incase anyone is willing to suggest me tracks or albums for the listed artists. Forgive me if any of the artist have been placed under the wrong genres. Most of these artist are there for me to refer to sometime in the future whenever I'm wanting to listen to more of a certain genre.
