An Australian band who I absolutely LOVE The only mp3 I have is one called 'Smoking Johnny Cash', which is a brilliantly dark rock song. For interesting reasons Rahvin, the song reminds me much of the story of Paidan Fain.
'...I had a vision in my sleep the stars began to fall they were like confetti at my feet and rising up above me, and riding on my back was the one I owed it all to, that man dressed in black.
I've got sugar, and I've got silk, I've got pockets, lined with hash Now I'm drinking your alcohol And I'm smoking Johnny Cash'
i'm listening to the samples on their site... sounds something nick cave would have been proud of. and indeed one of the band members joined the bad seeds at some point.
about padan fain: yes, i can see the "corrupted merchant" theme there. this goes straight to our soundtrack for the 3000 episodes of the wot soap opera we're working so hard on (or at least that's what i just decided we're doing )
what about nightwish's kinslayer for the "birth on the mountains" flashback when moiraine remembers plotting with siuan in the presence of the old amyrlin? :Spin:
