Bloody Panda Review

P.S. this is my music journalism myspace.

 

[Helm]

When one thinks of music described as "Doom", bands such as Khanate, Sunn, Esoteric, and the like come to mind.

Not at all!

 

[xfer]

"extreme doom", say

 

[Helm]

Is that what you ment, Paul?

 

[FuSoYa]

paul is probably speaking to his own generation in the review...

 

[FrostGiant]

I thought Doom was a video game?

 

[rachmiel]

somebody post a pic of the singer of candlemass!

I'm 22. To talk about music you just have to have a passion about it, and I don't think judgements can be made about this. But to do 'music journalism' it might be a good idea to have a strong historical understanding of the music you're talking about.

 

[Ralph_Tweed]

The accuracy of that statement depends on what audience Paul's aiming for. If he's writing with a Southern Lord type of crowd in mind, Khanate, Sunn0)) etc. as a reference point makes perfect sense. But if he's aiming broader Esoteric is pretty obscure. The band your average Metal guy used to use as a yardstick was My Dying Bride.

does that large man eat the large burger?

 

[Barista_Dot]

I was just throwing out mainly modern extreme doom bands. I mean...if i wanted I could have thrown in Black Sabbath because they basically...started the whole thing *awaits debate*.

But I guess, i should have specified that Im talking mainly about what is considered modern doom.

SORRY FOLKS.

Music is my passion. The review isnt an all encompassing historical volume dating back to the first second the word "Doom" was uttered regarding music, although I somewhat undestand what your saying, dont you think that the current comparison suites BP?

Again, I could throw in Pentagram and Black Sabbath, but thats stating what is already a known fact, by narrowing it down, someone that reads the review can most likely immediatly make the connection of what BP sounds like.

Thanks for reading though!!

 

[Ralph_Tweed]

There's being concise then there's implying music started last week.

 

[Helm]

I have not heard Bloody Panda and have no idea if your comparisons fall close, although I'd bet that they do.

 

[Barista_Dot]

True, Tweed....the sentence is a bit bold. And I would definitly check it out helm, but im sure you probably ordered the split...so you might find out soon!

Really good stuff
