Favourite lyric writers

[spawn]

Phil Anselmo? Thats it, you are on phloggys list.

 

[Winmar]

What list is that?

Mike Muir used to write some great stuff......not sure about recent efforts though.

 

[Sydo]

What about Blackie Lawless and the lyrics to his more 'serious' tracks?
Such as The Last Command, The Heretic, The Headless Children, Great Misconceptions Of Me, Scared To Death, Goodbye America, Killahead?

 

[spawn]

And most of The Crimson Idol too Sydo

(phloggys list from the "Worst Maiden Song" thread Winmar )

Hansi Kurch.... god that guy can create wonderous stories and just send my mind in loops of how he can come up with all of it.

 

[Sydo]

No, Hansi rewrites wonderous stories.

 

[ShaneBarnes1982]

Yes... that is true, but how he change the original story or theme that he is writing about, into a lyrical masterpiece is amazing. Well to me it is anyway.

 

[spawn]

Hansi? I dont know if I can take that guy seriously ever again. He wrote THREE songs about a gnome called Azrael who ended the universe...

Metal.

 

[ShaneBarnes1982]

I knew someone would say something like that! Ah well, it's all personal taste.

 

[spawn]

Actually, those 3 songs rock, but I mean COME ON! Dio will be singing about rainbows or some shit next...

 

[ShaneBarnes1982]

I just love the subject matter, I love fantasy and all that. And usually everything they write about I love. And Then There Was Silence is about the trojan war, and I just read an analyis about it recently, and it's really comprehensive!

 

[spawn]

Me too actually, its just easy to make fun of fluffy elves and the like, thats all

 

[ShaneBarnes1982]

Yeah I know... you either think it's cool, or the gayest thing in the world, there isn't a happy medium!

 

[Sydo]

I once knew a gnome called Azrael. I don't think he ended the universe however.

 

[spawn]

Obviously not, or we wouldnt be reading this, would we?

 

[ShaneBarnes1982]

Maybe this is the second universe... this first WAS destroyed by him... Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

[spawn]

Did he seem like the vindictive type Sydo?

 

[Sydo]

As far as Gnomes go, I'd say he was anything but! But who knows anything these days.

 

[spawn]

All too true
