Arcangelo Corelli’s La Folia (Follia) performed by one of the most amazing and talented singer/songwriter/musician/artists I know of…Emilie Autumn. The one thing I love about her more than anything else is you cannot lock her into any genre. Her music is so diverse. Not only from album to album but many times from track to track. She truly epitomizes the saying “you can’t judge a book by it’s cover”. I will be posting a few tracks of hers just so show the diversity of this amazing woman.
Here’s one more by Inkubus Sukkbus. A sweet little ditty about the ever so wonderful days of the ever so holy (cough cough choke choke) christian church and their world famous thrill ride “The Inquisition”. Led by the most graceous of hosts Torquemada.
There is an official video for this song but I chose not to use it here because I much prefer this version which isn’t as slow. Enjoy
“Church Of Madness”
Here come the Christian knights
Dressed in red and white
To bring the Holy Word and set the world alight
Here comes a plague of idiots blinded by their faith
Here comes the Inquisition to burn you at the stake
Here comes the Church of Madness
Bearing gifts of death and torture
Here comes the Church of Madness
Of Jesus Christ their Lord
The fire and the fury
To be our judge to be our jury
Here comes the Church of Madness
Of Jesus Christ their Lord
A new dark age descending, it’s Torquemada’s dream
Liberty lies raped, crushed, broken
Neath the Christian war machine
Nation after nation falling
In the shadow of the Christian sword
With death they bring the lore of love
Here comes the Church of Madness
Bearing gifts of death and torture
Here comes the Church of Madness
Of Jesus Christ their Lord
The fire and the fury
To be our judge to be our jury
Here comes the Church of Madness
Of Jesus Christ their Lord
(aaaaaaah)
What do they tell the people of their old crusades?
Of the women and the children
Impaled on Christian blades
Rejoice they say for we are saved
And we must sing the fight
Sing it till your lungs burst or they’ll set you alight!
Here comes the Church of Madness
Bearing gifts of death and torture
Here comes the Church of Madness
Of Jesus Christ their Lord
The fire and the fury
To be our judge to be our jury
Here comes the Church of Madness
Of Jesus Christ their Lord
Always thought that here was something very erotic about vampires. So dark, mysterious and seductive. Does that make me weird? I hope so. Would hate to be labeled as normal.
In no way am I referring to the utterly disgraceful butchering of vampire lore performed by that disgusting fucking “Twatlight” book and movie shite. Stephenie Meyer you deserve a good ass kicking for bedazzling vampires. They don’t go into the sun because they sparkle? Really? Fuck you and anyone else who actually thinks that “Dream Dust Dracula” was a great idea.
Here’s a little song by a band that understands what it is supposed to be about.
Here’s the lyrics
“Vampyre Erotica”
Your heart burns for love
My soul burns for blood
I’ll take you, I’ll break you
I’ll crush you, I’ll break you
If you want me, I’ll need you
I’ll kill you, feed from you
I’ll take you down that road
That leads to destruction
Come and take a walk with me
Where the angels fear to tread
Kiss the flame, feel the pain
In the furnace of our love
I can’t feed my hunger
Your youth makes me younger
I’ll hurt you, desert you
Turn your dreams to nightmares
I’ll cheat you, I’ll eat you
I’ll maim you, I’ll drain you
Come to me, come to me
To the dark side where love sleeps
I’ll hurt you, you’ll love me
I’ll scratch you, I’ll cut you
You’ll kiss me, then miss me
I’ll laugh at your torment
I’ll have you, and own you
Be hard and cold to you
I’ll be your dark angel
I’ll be your worst nightmare
Corrosion of Conformity. If you have never heard of this band then I only have one thing to say to you…..What the fuck is your problem douche bag?…lol This is another of those completely underrated bands I find myself talking about quite a bit. If you honestly have never heard these guys then do yourself a favor and check this out.
When you mention Layne Staley everyone instantly thinks of Alice In Chains but most forget or don’t even know about Mad Season. Here is my fav by them. Well actually tied with the song “I Don’t Know Anything”. Hope you enjoy.
My favorite band to come out of Seattle in the 90s. Kim Thayil fuckin’ rocks. Extremely underrated guitar player and that voice of Chris Cornell. Holy shit. What a kick ass band.
It has been a very long time since I have seen a band replace their lead vocalist so well. Tommy Karevik picks up where Khan left off with ease. Excellent move Kamelot and another amazing video,song and album.
“Sacrimony (Angel Of Afterlife)”
A passing life each day, a carving on the wall
It’s like a night without awakening
The truth is lost and maybe never to be found
Like the shadows of my pantomime
When all the world is gathered for the final feast
Will there be someone to believe in me?
Voices echoing in my distorted mind
Is this for real or just a dream?
(Am I losing my mind? I am not afraid, my dear)
[Chorus:]
Sing for me angel of afterlife calming me down
Chaos inside my nebula
And make the wrong turn to right in a celestial light
Forgive my sacrimony
Tell me what they say that I’m supposed to know
Tell me every little detail
Make truth appear for me as distant memories
Like pictures on a silver screen
It all becomes clear
The truth will appear
Forever a debt for you and me
[Chorus]
And now leave me alone
Erase my memory
Don’t want to hear, don’t want to see
Don’t want to think about the lie that follows me
All becomes clear
But no one will hear my testimony
I am your angel of afterlife calming you down
Silence inside your nebula
And when the wrong turns to right in a celestial light
I’ll heed your testimony
[Chorus]
(Ring around a rosie,
A pocketful of posies,
Ashes, ashes
We all fall down)
I couldn’t find a decent copy of a video of the band performing this song so the link is just to the audio. This song goes out to all those people who…well…I think we all know some people this should be dedicated to. You may be one of them. 😉 Lyrics below. Enjoy.
“Gotta Kill Capt. Stupid”
Ah damn, we got a lot of stupid people
Doing a lot of stupid things
Thinking a lot of stupid thoughts
And if you want to see one
Just look in the mirror
Gotta kill Captain Stupid, can’t you see him
Today we start the new way, we’re Suicidal
Gotta kill the old way, we’ll make it better
Won’t you join our mission, don’t be stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Brothers killing brothers, what up with that?
Can’t you see they’re laughing, that ain’t funny
Babies making babies, that ain’t love
You just got screwed over, get some respect
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Kill him, kill him, kill him
Gotta kill Captain Stupid
Kill him, kill him, kill him
Gotta kill Captain Stupid
Kill him, kill him, kill him
Gotta kill Captain Stupid
Kill him, kill him, kill him
And I don’t understand why
People be bringin’ Captain Stupid in their lives
Treating him like a superhero
Glorifying him when he ain’t nothing but a superpunk
And you see, you’re the one who’s gonna have to stop him
‘Cause you’re the one that started him
Oh, what’s that?
So now you say life sucks
Well, ninety-nine percent of it’s
What you make of it…
So if your life sucks, you suck
What’s that crap you’re smoking, playing the fool
Waste your life for nothing, when you’re something
What the hell you thinking, mind pollution
Got to get back control, it’s your life fool
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Kill him, kill him, kill him
Gotta kill Captain Stupid
I gotta, you gotta, I gotta
Gotta kill Captain Stupid
Kill him, kill him, kill him
Gotta kill Captain Stupid
I gotta, you gotta, I gotta
Gotta kill Captain Stupid
What’s that now?
Ah, so you’re scared to do something about it
Well, you better be scared not to do something about it
Because if you don’t kill Captain Stupid
Captain Stupid gonna kill you
Got to kill Captain Stupid…fool
