• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Your Top 10 Favorite Albums, Take 2

    Which is why I would just put Godspeed You! Black Emperor on as background music. I have to say that I enjoy GY!BE when I hear it because it's very forceful and atmospherical - but it's not really interesting enough to hold my attention for 90 minutes (hence my favourite is the Slow Riot For New...

    Your Top 10 Favorite Albums, Take 2

    I used to love them, but the problem is I have not listened to that stuff in forever and the other problem is that despite me loving those albums it was never about the technicality of the playing - the songs had to be good. And as I've grown older the novelty of it being...

    Your Top 10 Favorite Albums, Take 2

    this is code for boring. Steven Wilson is better when he keeps to what he does best - prog music in a format we can all stomach, not smearing it out over 20 minute long tracks that go nowhere. Also Insurgentes leans very heavily on a post-punk background and things like Joy Division are...

    Your Top 10 Favorite Albums, Take 2

    Your list could be my list three years ago. (Although I would argue that Blackwater Park is better than Still Life, I honestly prefer Images and Words and Awake to Scenes, The Way of All Flesh is better than From Mars, etc.) Can agree on the Devin pick. I don't like The Mantle apart from the...

    If you had your own band/group....

    Hahaha since I am in a band, I guess I should now answer the question what I would play solo - I think that would just be me and an acoustic guitar doing old folk tunes and singing songs about trains and things.

    I didn't look most of that up in a dictionary - I was fucking around at 1 am and had to write something. (It was literally: shit - SWEDISH BRAIN TIME). And I had to post it to get it out of my system.

    That's still arbitrary as long as you don't say why musicologists picked those three as opposed to anything else. (They'll have a reason, I just don't know why).

    Define "pop" music and "artistic". I can name plenty of popular artists that are very artistic and are not famed for lip-synching at shows, you know ;)

    "Speak a language a man understands, and you touch his head. Speak a language a man was born with, and you touch his heart." Mandela :) I personally think that any language is learned out of interest, because in terms of getting by, there's an English bubble anywhere.

    It's still spoken in some areas of Ireland. It's not dead, and every moment you're not speaking it is contributing to its decay. Keep it alive if you wish, it's still there and people do speak it.
