I may have to order this from Record Shop X. June is waaaaay too long to wait!

 

[Rookie Bassist]

As crazy as I am, I ordered it from the Rot Shop. I want it now. It's to be the first cd played on my new radio in me bus. heh.

 

[St Enigma]

Went out to the city today just to buy the new CD.

It's been on repeat in my player for the last four hours now and there is only one word to describe "Gravity Of Light": EPIC!


My favourite is the last track "Gone", makes the hair in the back of the neck stand straight up.

A question for Tarot fans... which would you consider their best disc? Thanks.

Zod

"To Live Forever", followed by "Crows Fly Black". I would also pick up their debut "Spell of Iron".

 

[Rookie Bassist]

Best album is hard to pick but I really like Suffer Our Pleasures, Pyre of Gods/ Rider of the Last Day is awesome.
Crows is awesome too, it's just too hard to pick. Im hunting down the early stuff right now.

I got my Gravity of Light cd & tshirt today, I am freaking stoked. the album rocks...so far my faves are Gone and Magic & Technology - in the latter Zac told me he stuck a bass G string on the guitar...you can hear it, it sounds weird...good weird. not bad weird. lol

God this new album (Gravity of Light) kicks solid ass!!! Can't wait to see this played live in September!!

 

[General Zod]

There's not a lot of bands at this year's fest that excite me, so I was really rooting for this disc to kick ass. Unfortunately, it falls well short of Suffer Our Pleasures, which for me is solid, but less than spectacular disc.

The bands may disappoint, but you never do.

Seriously, I kind of agree it may not be quite as good as Suffer Our Pleasure, but after only two spins, I like it a lot. Gonna give it a few more before I make a definitive assessment.

That' why this will be my 10th time at the fest and only their first.

There are those bands that will never appeal to me; don't care for the vocalist, style not to my liking, etc. Tarot doesn't fall into that category. I like the vocalist and like their musical direction. Unfortunately, for whatever reason, their songs don't grab me.

I love this tune.

Did you yet see this VERY amusing version of it? (from the Finnish "Choir war" TV show where they do choir versions of all sorts of rock/pop songs, gotta laugh at all the dance choreographies and stuff)

 

[Diamond45]

That was great. Thanks for posting Aki!

 

[Rookie Bassist]

since were posting Kuorosota hehe...Marco's boys Antto and Miro got to get in on it



sadly the didnt win the comp...which IMO is a major shame cos i think they did great. Desperado was the best of the last 3 they did.
