Here is that band I was talking about Saturday. Elvenking!
Be warned. They are weird. My favorite album from them is The Scythe because it's more hardcore death metal, but their other albums are quite folky and happy. Plus, they're simply awesome because they can rock a violin and their singer's name is Damnagoras.

This makes me laugh, but it's pretty true:
"Sounds Like - Groovy melodic metal with the addition of the violin. Fresh and original sound that mixes enchanting melodies, heavy metal groove, catchy choruses and acoustic folk elements."

Not until quite extremely recently. I just looked them up.
Sounds great, but the current song (Televators) is so sad! Ha-ha.

Haha, that was the song I was gonna suggest! It makes me want to cry, and I can't even understand half of what he's saying. I love the way they harmonize in that song. My friend gave me their Frances The Mute album, I can burn you a copy if you want.

Voodoo-Wolf In reply to apachetears [2009-10-22 19:59:25 +0000 UTC]

Oh, I know! It just has that sort of sad feeling. I think that's what makes music art. Even if you can't hear lyrics, you still get an emotion out of it.
Thank you so much, but it's okay. Don't waste your CDs on me. I would just rip it onto my computer anyway.

Hay girl haaay. Whazzup? Is your drummer friend coming to class on Saturday? And are we still on for the Renaissance Festival on Sunday? I'm sososo excited!

Voodoo-Wolf In reply to apachetears [2009-11-11 20:43:17 +0000 UTC]

Hey! You gotta tell me about the competition sometime. We should definitely party about it too, but hey...
We are going to have some serious fun this weekend!

It's tricky getting Justin to come to class, but we might be able to go jam at his house after class Saturday if that's cool and you don't have anything to do. I was over there Sunday playing with him and one of his guitarist friends. I kept screwing stuff up and playing like a loser of course, but it was so funny. I wish you could've heard me!
I'm going to bug Justin tomorrow to get some plans together, but as of now that's what's going on.

I surely hope we're still going to the Renaissance Festival. I saved money to spend.

I will! It's a long story, but that's what Saturdays are for
I'm ready for some turkey legs! Maybe I'll bring pizza on Saturday...

Haha, alright man. I'm sure you sounded fine . I might have to ride over there with you, and then my mom can come pick me up...Should I bring my acoustic with me, then?

ZOMG I finally got the coat that I won at Worlds in the mail, I'll wear it to class because it is so gorgeous!

Voodoo-Wolf In reply to apachetears [2009-11-12 21:45:36 +0000 UTC]

Excellent!

I'll ask my mother if she will drop us off, no problem. Your acoustic sounds like a fab idea, so sure. I'm probably going to have both my Schecter and SG, haven't quite decided yet, so you can use one of them if you need an electric for anything. You're probably going to need an amp, though.

I can't wait to see!

I'm learning how to play Bush "Glycerine" right now. I used to not like it because it's almost too grunge, but it's just so pretty. Also working on major and minor chords. Hitting all these notes is so tricky...

Hey - I'm not going to be at class on saturday, because I'll be doing henna at a bilingual festival at the Raptor Center from 9 am to 5 pm You guys should come by, though, it's free to get in and free to get facepaintings/henna! And 2 dollars to see a flight show with the raptors.

I want to come. We'll just see how things work out I guess.

Are we still going to see 9 Sunday? I want to see it so bad!

I do, but I can't. Sorry. School tomorrow. I have to get up at the most ridiculous hours.

Maybe we should try for another day. We figured out that it isn't playing at Norhlake, though, which I find depressingly odd.

Hi! So here are the ten best pics that we got yesterday. [link]

I cropped, adjusted, and numbered them for you! Which ones would you like? I can e-mail them all if you don't mind the massive size issue, or I could just upload them on here or Photobucket so you can download them. Whatever you think is best.

I think your guitar has Dissociative Identity Disorder. No kidding.

I'm going to work on the pics from the guitar show too, so I'll get you those.

Ha! I think so too!

Krunk skunk!

Hey, so how was the Sick Puppies concert?
I just heard one of their songs on the radio! It's amazing.

apachetears In reply to Voodoo-Wolf [2009-08-17 22:11:25 +0000 UTC]

It was amazing!!! They only played for an hour, though, because after their set, there was an intermission, and then Hurt came on. Sick Puppies were supposed to be the headliners, so I don't know what happened there.

I got them to sign the electronics plate on my guitar with silver sharpie, though! And the lead singer flipped out because it was color-shifting, I talked to him about it a little. Anddd I got to take a picture with them!

Haha yeah, he asked my name, and he was like "Did you make this?! I have a lot of respect for you, people who can do that. Wish I could do stuff like that." When I was walking away, he was all excited about it, talking to the drummer & bassist It made me feel special

I plan on it! Chevelle is coming to Amos' in November, and the NEVER come to small venues! It's gonna be SICK! So I might have to sneak you in. But first, i've gotta convince your parents...

Chevelle... I'm going to go hang out at their YouTube page.
Ha-ha! Maybe we can lock my parents in the guitar cabinet.
Maybe not.

Hey, at least now I've only got a little over a year left until I'm free forever! Which is actually pretty scary. We're getting old!

Ha-ha, yeah! We might have to make sure they never escape after that! Or I could run away to Africa or somewhere bizarre.

It is terribly depressing. Ah, man. You only have one more year until you start college, right? I'd be freaking out.
Hey, so what do you want for your birthday?

Lawl, we could run away to Cary, and then everyone would get lost trying to find us! haha.

I don't even have a year left, i'm dual enrolling soon .
Jesus, I hate deciding on birthday stuff. . I'm just suuuper indecisive. Hmmm. I want...Chevelle's new album Sci-Fi Crimes, it doesn't come out until August 31st. Or a Free Hugs/Sick Puppies t-shirt or a Death Cab for Cutie - Long Division T-Shirt...or a Ra Ra Riot t-shirt...I dunno! I can't pick one!

I'm thinking I don't have any Trivium albums yet. Shogun is my fav. I like their Neon Rat t-shirt too. And then of course I always want any and all DragonForce merch! If only there was a poster of their hot arses somewhere. Ha. I wish.

Hi! I'm finally home!!!!! I've never been so happy to be sitting at my own computer

My hippology team won Easter Regionals, and my horsebowl team won the AQHYA World competition, so I got an enormous belt buckle and a customised, embroidered jacket! I'm so happy, in an exhausted sort of way

Oh! And my mom and I saved a puppy right out of the middle of the road in Oklahoma City, so if you know of anyone who wants a chocolate lab mix, lemme know

Have fun with Spore! It's the most addicting game EVER!

Voodoo-Wolf In reply to apachetears [2009-08-09 03:33:03 +0000 UTC]

That is crazy!!! I'm so happy for you!

Reminds me of the time I saved three turtles off of the road. All within 5 minutes! They couldn't get back up the curb and one growled at me. Of course those were safe to set back in the woods.
I love puppies. I wish I could take him...( or her?) I'll ask around and let you know if anybody is interested.

Thanks! I haven't gotten very far yet. My creatures just now finished migrating inland from the ocean. I keep dying.

apachetears In reply to Voodoo-Wolf [2009-08-10 23:38:29 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha I love turtles! They are so amazing. A turtle peed on me once, actually. It was one of the most bizzare things that ever happened to me!

I bet that we'll end up keeping the puppy, because him and our dog Ozzy are having a blast! haha

There's not a whole lot of advice I can give you about the whole dying thing, but it makes it a whole lot easier to live if you're an omnivore...Make allies with the tribes immediately surrounding you, and eat everyone else! ahahahaha

Oh! And the Mortal Instruments series is fabulous, i've just finished the 3rd book.

Ha-ha! Hey, turtle gotta go too, you know.

Sounds awesome. Have you named him yet?

I'm starting to think that just eating everyone is a good strategy! I tried being friends with a tribe that I had accidentally attacked at first. Understandably, things didn't work out so well.

Sounds interesting. What's it about?

I just tried to send you a message, but I don't think it went through- if it did, just ignore this, on account of me being a spaz

Not much is going on, just been sitting around and practicing for a couple gigs. And i've been getting ready for a vet school workout. Oh! I recorded a song (I can't remember if I told you that yet) and a painting I made (of my horse) won a state art contest, which is pretty sweet.

Sick Puppies' new album came out today!!! I'm gonna go buy it as fast as humanly possible! Aaand the neck of my guitar is almost finished, but i'm still stalling on the whole inlay design idea...

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

alexgabriel In reply to apachetears [2009-07-15 09:12:23 +0000 UTC]

Yes, you did encounter succsess with the sending of the message
Um, why don't you show me the song, you cheeky devil?
And also, why don't you upload a picture of the painting on Deviant, for the sake of all those wannabe critics
Anyways, congrats for both achievements D D D

I wanna tell you that i'm gonna be away for about a week, i'm visiting someone with a few friends of mine I hope itll be fun
So, i'll leave you for now, you now have time to upload the painting and the recording until i return :-w
So go buy that album, and be careful with the inlay, i want to see a flawless instrument
bye bye!

Hi! Sorry for my disappearance, I was traveling with my equine science team to Arkansas and Oklahoma, aka the places where NOTHING EVER HAPPENS. Except for cows, there were a lot of those.

I'm...still working on the uploading of the recording, because i'm a retard when it comes to computers. And, the canvas is being uncooperative because it's too big for my scanner
Hope dies last, however, so i'll get both online soonish...

I stole the album from my aunt! And it is excellent, but it takes some adjustment for me, because they really experimented with new stuff in this album. Change is good, however.

How was your visit? I hope that you acted like a hooligan and ate cheescake like a beast, or disturbed the peace in some way

No progress has been made on the inlays as of yet, because i've been gone. Oh! I saw your David study, it's excellent! It would be awesome if you did one in charcoal, the contrast would be striking.
