VNV Nation

[shade]

ronan harris, vnv nation singer, once stated: "civilisation is what distinguishes us from animals, laughter is what distinguishes us from goths".

hih hih.

I guess they wouldn't be goths if they didn't say that they weren't...
(rule number one)

great music, by the way.
the kind of that makes you want to dance the hole night...and never go home.

that leads to some paradox... argh, me head! *detonates because of fuzzy logics*

ronan harris also introduced the reunited sisters of mercy headlining the m'era luna festival in 2002 by saying "and for those of you who like sisters of mercy, enjoy the puppet show".

he must be such a warm-hearted person.

Didn't you know? for example, when you pass a certain stage in being a goth, you don't try to look as goth as you can, you try to look as opposite to that as you can...

is this before or after you start drinking human blood?


@hearse: i'm going to be gothic: die. screaming.

 

[shade]

Goths drink only red wine...
and the guys are killing me if I turn this discussion to goths...
but that would be very goth!

always make fun about goths.
-rule number two-

so.... what do you think of death metal...

 

[rahvin]

Goths drink only red wine...

damn, i like red wine.

always make fun about goths.
-rule number two-

they're an extremely easy and willing target.

so.... what do you think of death metal...

some i like and some i don't. was that in connection with our friends the vampires or just out of curiosity?

 

[shade]

well, I just tried to save my soul,
trying to change the direction of conversation...
But I like to listen that kind of music,
especially when I'm cleaning...

i'll make arrangements for dark tranquillity's new album to be called "vacuum dancer".

edit: @hearse: you were goth-er in denial

 

[Horza]

Ohh fuck, VNV Nation is fucking awful

That's great! Fucking awful is awesome and so goddamn cool, and by cool I mean totally sweet.

Nyt ymmärrän miksi horza ei pidä The Mind's I: sta...

(Speak English or die.)

Ehh. The Gallery is one of the best metal albums ever. The Mind's I... well, it's among the worst.

Looks like I still have it. I thought I traded it away a few years ago. Apparently not. Well, then. Let's give it a spin. (Gives it a spin.) OH MY GOD WHAT A HORRIBLE PILE OF YAK EXCREMENT!

Really. Somehow those guys managed to make a re-make of The Gallery without any depth or feeling at all. Second hand riffs and songwriting. I'm vomiting here, guys.

 

[Windom Pearl]

great music, by the way.
the kind of that makes you want to dance the hole night...and never go home.

Damn that sounds terrible I prefer the music to be totally opposite. To absolutely not make anyone dance and make me feel like staying home.

 

[rahvin]

And speak English or die.

we've found a compromise already: he'll do both.

 

[Horza]

we've found a compromise already: he'll do both.

Speaks English and dies?

 

[rahvin]

Speaks English and dies?

precisely. we found it was the best solution for everybody, all things considered. for the sake of honesty i must admit hearse would have settled for just dying, but he felt it was good and right to help us a little.

 

[Horza]

Goths are pussies. And dancing... ehm, well that's for pussies too. (I'm such a lovable character.)

And I've seen the comedy extreme. Some sort-of-a-metalheads tried to dance Manowar (in sort-of-a-metal-bar). They gave up after a few seconds, though. But it sure was fun to watch.

That's good, because I woudn't want to
see you dancing...

...and maybe not myself either.
But that's easily solved...

 

[Lee_B]

I do quite like VNV, but they still sound like a slightly beefy Front 242 to me.

Suicide Commando do it more for me. They've taken that old Belgian EBM sound to the max.

 

[Lolita Vampiriá]

Lee, wtf is your avatar this time? :zombie:

[Windom Pearl]

That's good, because I woudn't want to

It's not that bad. I can do decent foxtrot and waltz

 

[shade]

I believe you and actually that's more dancing that I can!
In high school we had a boycott against our
wanhojen tanssit="the prom-kind-of-party"
so I don't know even walz...

In my wedding there's going to be
only Depeche Mode and Madonna...
(+maybe some Twin Peaks-music...)
Poor relatives!
