The winter is wrong. It´s raining cats and dogs all day long, getting dark at 5pm, it´s cold, the wind is blowing, everything that was green died allready and it´s getting worser and worser with every day!!!:( I HATE THIS!!! :mad:
Any questions?

Interview with the vampire

Princess mononoke,Andromeda Stories and other japanese cartoon-movies,mostly from the 80's.they cut deep,that's for sure...

i cant think of any others atm(blonde)

saturnus(any)
nick cave-the good son
jethro tull-benefit
dark tranquillity-haven
pink floyd-the final cut
antimatter- a dream for the blind:p

all these contribute to a sweet sweet sleep!

as for movies:*the english patient*!:confused: pure greek trnslation...sophia heeelp!
 
Interesting. Most guys (including me) are on the downside these.... Hope things get better (I know they will - time heals).


Back on topic, I saw an ecxcellent movie on the Thessaloniki film fest 2 days ago by some Swedish guy named Lucas Moodysson... It's called "Lilja 4-ever" and it's so realistic and painful (talks about a 16 year old girl from Russia that is so poor and helpless that ends up being sexualy abused by all sorts of weird fucks, while not making any money). There are actualy thousands of girls that live like that in those poor countries of eastern europe. It was so intense that after it ended I started hating meself for being a man..... I got to find the rest of his movies...
 
saturnus - martyre
saturnus - paradise belongs to you.

be careful my friend, listening to this music
can tear you to shreds if yr feeling down.
i'm sure you know the feeling....
desperation.

Me, I'm breaking the fuck down :cry:
Nevermind me, I don't mean to look for attention....

Welcome to the club, mate... Hey, try to cheer up allright? If there's something you haven't heard on the lists people here have suggested, just pick up a cd or two and concentrate on those... I just did that. There really should be a law that forbids bad things happening in the winter time. In the summer everything is somehow easier...

I've heard good things about this Saturnus, maybe I should check 'em out also. Tho I think my bank account is drawing its last breath..

And about that music, yes I know what it can do to you, but still I prefer that than just facing things in silence u know?
 
dunno, but when I'm in bad times, listening to depressive music always relieved me...

tomorrow? do you know what time that'll be..(little late last time, i was..but that's cos of my work, which i'm not having anymore..so now i have all the time time time..and time.)
hey, me bro's comin here today, (you know the ND gig..:rolleyes: ) maybe we'll come tomorrow to buck you up, a little..?! we start to drink tonight, soon, so after 24 hours i think we should be kinda nice company..eh?! :D
no, i'd really like to hear you guys playing..!

hang on, mate!:)

:) We'll play last (there's two bands) 'cause the drummer of the first band wants go see Hellacopters, so I guess we'll be startin around 23:00 maybe? Maybe earlier.. Anyways it'd be nice if you make it, tho I'm kinda suspicious how it will go. I've had some problems with my voice lately and I guess smokin doesn't help much :rolleyes: And I ain't exactly in the mood for performin but whatever (do I sound like a wannabe-artist now? :err: )

Oh, and thanks to you and the others who suggested Buckley. I picked up Sketches yesterday and haven't listened to anything else since. Goosebumps.
 
Uh, it actually depends on the situation, but I guess if I listened to for example Requiem for a dream -soundtrack now, I'd probly saw my hand off... and tho I don't really listen to them, I think listening to MDB or similar stuff might not do good at the moment. I need bittersweet stuff, melancholy, not crushing desperation.
