All fall down together.

 

This one carries a lot of history for me. I got a call from a friend late at night. I picked up and she said "there's blood everywhere". I got very worried and she added that she had done it herself.

It was a weird conversation.

 

I can't explain why. This song just reminds me of that late night phonecall.

Symphony X, A fool's paradise.

 

This is how my girlfriend at the time got me up in the morning. She put this song on and I could not sleep. The tonality just made me awake.

Listening to it is like listening to the scale without the last note.

Not sure what "Sigrid" means, but my daughter's name is "Sigrun". It's the name of the head valkyrie from viking battles, collecting souls from battles. It means "Rune of victory". It's not getting much better. Maybe contested by my son who's name is Eldar, meaning "Guardian of fire".

 

Good song, btw.

 

EDIT: Yea, I do speak norwegain. Maybe not in the late night when there's no work the next day.

Nice voice. Good guitar player.

I'll leave it at that.

"Sprengemobil", sometimes you listen to awesome stuff. And sometimes utter crap

 

EDIT:

Example of awesome:

 

1/8 drums. Unbeatable (pun intended)

Sigrid means "victory", "wisdom", and "beautiful". Sigrid = Sigr + fríðr ("victory" and "beautiful", respectively).

Jeg hadde et band i studio for ørten år siden. De kalte seg Postgirobygget. Jeg spilte inn demoen deres.

De gav ut ei skive rett etter, med delvis endrede tekster. De var hakket vassere i original versjon.

Denne låten var muligens min absolutte favoritt da, og den låten som ikke ble forandret i hele tatt fra demo til skive.

And if you want to hear a weird song from the same album, this would be it. It's a "happy" song about someone drowning. Can't beat that.

I still distinctly remember when these guys came to the studio. They wanted to record a complete album during one single day. I said "sorry, that can't be done". They said "yes it can, just shove all of us in the same room and we'll make it work".

Awesome.

 

They were right.
