A place to post links to great music!

Rules:
1 No Known Zappa since we all know he's fantastic;
2 Always list song name with link because links may disappear.

Here's what I've been listening to for the past four days:
Mein Teil by Rammstein

The lyrics are fantastic! They refer to the notorious cannibal case in Germany 2001 (look up details at your own risk, though you probably just remember what happened if you heard it.)

Denn du bist was du ist! You are what you eat!

Cool idea, Bonny, I wonder why I didn't have it.:freak:

You could post something you like... I'm going into too much of a Dir en grey phase now to find new stuff and my sister keeps bugging me to send her music.

I should try mailing her some Merzbow.

I didn't know that one, it sounds very '80s, but cool.

It's from 1978 and came with a booklet with utterly awesome paintings, as a kid I could stare at those and listen to this music for hours. If you can find it, especially on vinyl, don't hesitate!

I'll try that.

And now for something completely different, for those who like metal, breakcore and baroque music: Igorrr: Hallelujah.

Oof, that singer misses quite a few notes.

This is one of my favourite vocal performances: extremely heavy with a rapid succession of one long note, a longer note, then a still longer note that ascends in the chorus. Not to mention the high notes in the bridge. It goes right to the throat, this one.

Edited, thanks for the note Poly: this is Rona Nishliu live on Albanian television with Suus.

I don't want to be a pain but you did say post the name of the song with the link.

Rona Nishliu's got quite a voice.

This is her doing an English jazz version of Suus, but without that super high stuff she did in the Eurovision song contest.

Reconstructie is one of the major turning points in Dutch 20th century art music. Composed by The Hand: Micha Mengelberg, Peter Schat, Louis Andriessen, Reinbert de Leeuw and Jan van Vlijmen, with libretto by literary greats Hugo Claus and Harry Mulisch (though I beg to differ on Mulisch's case). It was dedicated to Che Guevara and obviously inspired by the Vietnam war. Musical inspirations are, among others, Mozart's Don Giovanni and FZ + MOI. The script even specifically mentions a certain section should be sung in MOI style.

It was never performed after the initial run of 6 shows: probably because the 11 m high statue of Che Guevara was a bit of a hassle.


Louos Andriessen is considered to be the most prominent Dutch composer of the last three centuries. Here is his work De Staat:

Dutch television organised a hard rock concert performed by a choir of elderly last year, and they were such a charming hit, they're touring Germany now.
Here they are, the Golden Oldies, flashmobbing Cologne with Rammstein's Die Sonne:
