For those who don't give a shit...

[Smelly Metal]

...to a new band section, I just wanted to introduce this new prog-metal effort a bit.

First of all, the lineup

Martin LeMar - Vocals (Tomorrow's Eve)
Vivien Lalu - Keys (Hubi meisel)
Joop Wolters - Guits (ex-Arabesque)
Russell Bergquist - Bass (ex-Annihilator)
Ryan Van Poederooyen - Drums (The Devin Townsend Band)

An MP3 being better than a long talk, you can trow an ear to this :

The name of this track is "YESTERDAYMAN". It was the "free" sampler available for download.

There are also other samples you can listen to:

http://www.smellymetal.com/lalusworld/mp3/moonstruck.mp3
http://www.smellymetal.com/lalusworld/mp3/final1.mp3
http://www.smellymetal.com/lalusworld/mp3/final2.mp3
http://www.smellymetal.com/lalusworld/mp3/wolven.mp3
http://www.smellymetal.com/lalusworld/mp3/Timestop.mp3

So that's all I can do to introduce LALU because I believe the music is a matter of taste, your ears will tell you what to think (better than our words would do)

However, thanks for reading so far and spending time on such a smelly topic!

Hey Viv,

Has LeMar record any albums with Tomorrow's Eve yet? I know they had different singers on their first two discs, right?

Thanks!

Noppe my friend

He only recorded "demos" with them, they are trying to find a label (for the new album) if I understood well...

You're welcome!!!

Oniric Metal should take an award for its production i think. It is one of the very good productions i've heard. Each instrument sounds great. Awesome.

 

[Kenneth R.]

great stuff, love the album

(and the artwork )

 

[Kev3136]

Yea I like it guys!

 

[Smelly Metal]

Thanks a lot! Gives us lots of inspiration & motivation for the 2nd one

You rule

Oniric Metal is an excellent album...also dig your work with Hubi Meisel, especially Kailash...outstanding. Do you have an approximation when Shadrane will see the light of day?

 

[Smelly Metal]

Thanks a lot Iced Dog

You're too kind....well before I checked these forums I was preparing a Shadrane track (for Göran Edman to record). The master has to be sent in 3 months, so I guess "somewhere in the second half of 2006" would be the answer

Thanks again for your awesome comments.

Viv, I gotta ask...what was your inspiration behind Pot Boy? At first when I heard the beginning section with the goofy skit, I didn't know what to expect (read: WTF? ), but it turns into quite the fine epic track

I always think it is a "critter" (like in the old movie, you know) talking in that song It sounds very similar, but they can't talk that good in the movies, and i don't think they can command a ship, so never mind what i think

 

[Smelly Metal]

LOL turke

Nah...

Well Iced Dog it was just a stupid story about some stupid alien searching some stupid weed on earth :Smokin:

Anyway the opening dialogue between Devin (the hero/alien) and Infinity (the ship's computer) tells it all:

"Hello Devin, did you have a good sleep man?
- Yes Infinity! Wassup?
- Oh, everything's fine, but weed level is getting low
- Getting low? How's that possible?
- You smoke too much pot yesterday, sucker!
- Oh, guess we have to find some more. Any idea infinity?
- Nearest planet featuring weed is planet Earth
- Ok, let's get there, FULL SPEED!
- Don't know if we can make it to Earth - weed level too low
- Hey! I said "get there"!
- As you wish my lord, your words are orders
- Stop it Infinity! Now I'm gonna get into weedogenic sleep, but before... Shall I make one? It's gonna be a good one!"

There are many good actors acting in this song (their names are included in the lyrics)... Christopher Floyd, Gary Youngman, Charles Danz, Westley Stripes and Alan Fickman

[Tamadrummer73]

[Kenneth R.]

i cracked up at "FULL SPEED" and then the song busted in and rocked

 

[Virtual Scott]

That's a killer track, by the way. One of my favorites... so much so, I accidentally rechristened it "Tomorrow Man". Yikes!
