post what you’re into – UPDATED
UPDATE: okay, ross calls me out in the comments that me liking ebtg is old news. okay, here’s some stuff i’ve been getting into since coming to china. had a brief moment with a clerk at a music/pirated dvd store in beijing where she played me some sweet chinese independent music. here are a couple choice cuts from the cds i bought:
优美的低于生活 (google translation = lower than the beautiful life) by Sound Fragment:
and then The For-You Song by Miserable Faith:
Miserable Faith are listed as “Beijing Heavy Metal.” lol, i don’t know about that guys…
Chu told me that when she was in college there was a kind of Hair Metal/Power Metal type band that was popular – Tang Dynasty – you can check out one of their videos here.
—————————————
in the spirit of ross’s o’so krispie post, i’ve been digging hard on everything but the girl’s brief full-on adult contemporary phase. here’s “one place” from the album “worldwide.” i defy anyone to find a tighter start to a song. side-of-drum clack, bass line, 5 note piano intro, straight to super understated late-80s-early-90s guitar line.

this is an awesome song, but the spirit of my o’so krispie post was you have to post something NEW that you’re into, something you just discovered!!!

lol, for me?
is the post what you’re into only for music? I haven’t gotten into too much new recently.
I’ve been diving into the world of ff7 fanfic. but I’m not sure if you’d want to read about that.
