I am tripping out on myself
I am tripping out on myself
I have to watch my thoughts
Before they come to life
Before they come to life

I have to get you out of my head
I have to swallow my tongue
I have to find where I went
Before she comes to life
Before she comes to life

They're coming to get me
She's coming right towards me
They're coming to take me away
She's getting closer
(From 'Mint')

9. What is your favorite song by 5?

10. Is there a song by 6 that makes you happy? (Lunatica)

18. What is your favorite album by 11? (Subway to Sally)

19. What is your favorite song by 1? (Epica)

21. What is a good memory involving 27? (Collide)
Nothing. This band is DEFINITELY being kicked out of my music collection.

22. What is your favorite song by 16? (Dashboard Confessional)

28. What is you favorite song by 2? (Elane)
Another toughie. The thing I love about this band is that their albums carry on like a story and the songs connect very well together. I can't answer this question.

A few days ago I was thinking about creating a personal tag as I was in urgent need for some new music, adequate for a special mood. I really thought it to be easy to find some name for it as I just needed something to describe music which soothes and calms, which is gentle and somewhat "soft"... I just wanted a personal category perhaps for a cup of green tea and some Jane Austen or Virginia Woolf. But what name should I use?

I am an aquarius who really fits the cliche - or let me better say the stereotype, concerning the "mental processes". I had brooded over a possible name quite a long time when I suddenly thought that I could use a figure from the ancient Greek mythology. I really love the ancient world, most especially the Greek, and I would love it even if I had not studied philosophy.
So as I wanted something to tag music with which I can forget the everyday stress I chosed to use "forgetfulness", personified in Lethe, and I named it lovesongs for lethe. For those of you who possibly don't know: Lethe is one of the rivers of Hades, the underworld, and it's personification as a naiad. Those who drink from it experience complete forgetfulness.
Isn't this just perfect for such wonderful artists like Ataraxia, Narsilion, Artesia or Vas?





As I began to tag music with this wonderful creation I realised that there are many artists who really don't fit in this new category. Some make music which is simply too harsh although it is quite ambient, the songs from others are often too dark, apocalyptic and martial as if I could listen to them while reading "Pride & Pejudice"... The solution was easy to find: I simply needed another tag. I had the name quite fast in mind: lovesongs for eris. I decided to use Eris, Greek goddess of "strife" (named Discordia in Latin), because I just love the fact that she is responsible for the Trojan War: The goddesses Hera, Athena and Aphrodite had been invited to the wedding of Peleus and Thetis (they would become the parents of Achilles), but Eris was unwelcome because of her unbearable inclinations. She therefore tossed into the party the Apple of Discord... Well, I guess I won't have to tell the whole story.
And isn't it interesting that Lethe is one of her daughters? So with this I have another wonderful poetical tag for artists such as Der Blutharsch, Ordo Rosarius Equilibrio, Conscientia Peccati or Of the Wand and the Moon.





As I thought about this wonderful "pseudo-dualism" I again realised that this is not enough, that I absolutely urgently needed to tag my most beloved classical artists as well in this way... Sure, I could listen to Claudio Monteverdi or Antonio Vivaldi the whole day, and it's the same with the arias interpreted by Maria Callas, that's no secret at all, and it's also nothing special about it - but I decided that it would be nice to have a special tag I could use while working. Something to categorise music which is good to concentrate. (And I just wanted another lovesong, I admit it...) The choice was as simple as the last one: Mnemosyne, of course. What could be better than the personification of memory? lovesongs for mnemosyne was guite obvious. Another fact is important: She was also a river in Hades, counterpart to the river Lethe (how logical...). I guess that there's no need to tell that Zeus and Mnemosyne created the nine muses.
So the Mater Musarum shall help me along with composers like Thomas Tallis, Carl Maria von Weber, Frédéric Chopin and Georg Friedrich Händel.





What is next? Are three tags of this form sufficient? I know that I am a person tending to exaggerate... So I foresee what will happen: Lovesongs for Melete, for Terpsichore, for Euterpe and Erato... One for each of all the Muses, one for each Titan, one for each Giant. One for every single ancient Greek Deity, wouldn't that be just great? Hm, I guess I better should chose only one, and that had to be Apollo. He is the archer-god of medicine, healing, light and truth; as the patron of Delphi he is also an oracular god; and as the leader of the Muses (hence his second name "Musagetes") and master of their choir he is the god of music and poetry. And he is male - that is of great importance.

"Thunder on, O thou, with thy flaming steeds,
Phoebus, bringer of day, into infinite space!"

It's been only a million years since I've posted an entry, so I figured it was time! So here's an entry filled with comments on the albums I have loved and hated this year, along with a few observations.

Sorry if I sound vague sometimes, I'm getting sleepy. xD

Nox Arcana - Shadow of the Raven. I need to pick up a volume of Poe's works. I love this cd to death. If I read any complaints at all about it, it's that the sound is canned and lacks the feel of other NA cds. Nonetheless, this album is brilliant and worth a listen.

Favorite tracks: Melancholia, Madeline's Lament, Haunted Memories, Legacy of Sorrow, Mysteries of the Night, Morbid Reminiscence, Lenore, and A Dream Within A Dream.

Artesia - Chants d'Automne. I love this cd. SO much. I was blown away by it, and I think they are better than Dark Sanctuary, even. It's in French and it has such a mystical feel that it takes me on a journey every time.

Favorite tracks: Invitation, Chant d'automne, La maison des Feins

Hannah Fury - Through the Gash. Watch out world, because Hannah's gonna take over! I was so excited for this release, and it holds up to her other work

Favorite tracks: You Had Me, Where the Wounds Are, The Apple, Carousel.

Karmacoda- Illuminate. I felt let down this year by the trip-hop genre, there were only two cds that came out of it that I love. This is the first one. Gods, I love Karmacoda. What an underappreciated act, featuring the lovely vocals of Heather Pierce. DO yourself a favor and treat yourself to Karmacoda today.

Favorite tracks: Turn, Glow, Endings, Ambient Song.

Tearwave - Tearwave. Not a lot of good shoegaze albums this year, but Projekt has a winner with Tearwave, so this is an act to watch.

Favorite tracks: Emotional Cocoon, Lady Aurora, Dream Bliss

Noe Venable- The Summer Storm Journals. Noe, Noe Noe. What an amazing woman. This album is very easily a contender for top ten best-of lists. She gives me goosebumps.

Favorite tracks: Prayer for Beauty, Sea Of Possilibity, Ice Dragons

Katharine Blake - Midnight Flower. Despite the fact she is behind Miranda Sex Garden and Medieval Baebes, this album isn't that well known. And it's a pity, because people are missing out on a very soothing folk album. I listen to this one when I fall asleep. It's a bit different than the Katharine most people are used to.

Favorite tracks: Midnight Flower, Song Of The Twilight Faeries, Frozen On The Morn

Minnie Driver- Seastories. She was a singer before she became an actress, so she's not Mariah Carey or anything similar. Her first album was amazing, but her second is leaps and bounds above that. Please, please give Minnie a chance.

Favorite tracks: Cold Dark River, London Skies.

The Moon and the Nightspirit- Rego Retjem. It's sung in Hungarian but retains a mystical feel. For fans of fantasy music that want to be transported to other realms. :)

Favorite tracks: Orokke, Szarvaslélek.

The Secret Meeting- Ultrashiver. Whoa, is this cd ever sexy or what! I'm not a big fan of Collide except for a song or two, but this album is WICKED!

Favorite tracks: Am I Here, Touch, Every Little Thing

Au Revoir Simone- The Bird of Music. I hope this band grows musically, but their first two albums are superb. Light, fluffy music, and I enjoy it. :)

Favorite tracks: Fallen Snow, Dark Halls, Night Majestic

Mermaid Kiss - Etarlis. One of my all-time favorite artists already, despite the fact I've only had their music a short while. I first found this artist through this siteand was itching to get their discography. Well, I have it and was knocked off my feet. Their delightful music hovers between soft rock and ambient pop, with a style that is all their own. They have gone through a couple of different vocalists - Evelyn Downing and Kate Emerson. I love the way this band is evolving, and they are one to watch.

http://www.mermaidkiss.co.uk/

Favortie songs: Walking With Ghosts, Siren Song, Dark Cover, A Different Sky

All My Faith Lost...- The Hours. This is their third cd, if you count their album Chamber Music, which never got released due to copyright issues. They have improved drastically since that and When You're Vanishing In Silence, and the result is one of the most ethereal and dreamy albums of the year. I could weep for it's sheer beauty.

Favortie songs: Angelike, The Waves, Luminal, Ocean Sea, Ivory.

Well, it seems like its been over a year and a half (!) since I have last written a journal entry, so I guess maybe it is about time for me to write one as I have been overwhelmed by the amount of amazing music that has come my way lately. There is so much, I don't even know where to begin! And still so much I have yet to listen to...

I really meant to do a best of 2006 list, but procastinator that I am, I never got around to it, and I think that maybe it is too late to do one now. So I will focus instead on 2007. Here, not in order of preference (as that changes depending on my mood), but in alphabetical order instead (in hommage to the nerdiness instilled in me by library work), is a mish mash list of my musical adventures thus far in 2007.

Current Favourites of 2007

After Forever - After Forever
Amber Asylum - Still Point
Artesia - Chants D'Automne
Autumn Tears - The Hallowing
Backworld - Good Infection
Faun - Totem
Imperia- Queen of Light
In the Nursery - Era
The Moon and the Nightspirit - Regö Rejtem
The Secret Meeting - Ultrashiver
Stormfågel - Ett Berg Av Fasa
Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble of Shadows - Les Fleurs du Mal
Virgin Black - Requiem Mezzo Forte (I'm sure the next two parts of the trilogy will be just as amazing!)

Honourable Mentions (May or may not make the final best of 2007 list upon further listens...)

Ataraxia - Kremasta Nera
Elend - A World in their Screams
Epica - The Divine Conspiracy
Daemonia Nymphe - Krataia Asterope
Dwelling - Ainda É Noite
Hannah Fury - Through the Gash
Miriam - When Beauty is Invisible
Pearls of Dew - Alpha
Tearwave - Tearwave

Releases I Am Looking Forward to in 2007

I'm too lazy to look up release dates and album titles, so artist names will have to suffice! Of course there may be more, but these are the ones I can think of off the top of my head. I hope they all actually come out in 2007...

Am'ganesha'n
Corde Oblique
Haggard
Hexperos
Irfan
Narsilion
Omnia
Trobar de Morte


And then there are all those great albums that I have discovered recently that did not come out in 2007 that I would love to make note of. But, partially due to lack of time right now and even more due to laziness, I shall have to save those for another time, if ever...
