New Blog on the Blog

Alright, you fuckers. Here is my blog as you kept telling me to start it like "When you gonna make a blog?" "Please make a blog so you can talk about stuff about all types of metal!" Well, it's on right now!

Nah, I wouldn't have that attitude when greeting my visitors to my blog. Welcome to my blog, and my name is Brayden. Now I don't have to say when it comes to introductions, but I'll be talking about metal and rock bands, incidents that go on, I'll even pave the way to put on a bucket list of things I want to do, including stuff I've done in real life, and album reviews on straight-forward and concept albums.

Did I mention that I am in a Punk band? Oh yes, I'm the lead guitarist in that band. But we're nowhere near the other bands who have been successful. My band's name is called "Totaly Drained".

Well, gotta run now! Stay kvlt to all my black metal fans out there, stay metal to all my metalhead friends out there! \m/

Nightwish - Demo - 1996 (Review)

Alas, we begin the very first review for the very first product that counts as a studio album. Yes, it's only a demo with three songs, but I still consider it a studio album because it came with the CD of 'Angels Fall First', which you will see in the next review. 'DEMO' from: Nightwish Let's kick off this party with how this demo sounds like. This was back in the year that Nightwish first formed in 1996, the same year this demo came out. At this point, the only three members at the time were Tarja, Emppu and Tuomas. You will notice that there is a large absence of drums and bass from the recording. The demo mainly is composed with beautiful acoustic guitars and synth/clean piano with majestic soaring vocals that Tarja delivers. Funny thing, there is two guitars doing leads but panning left and right. 1. THE FOREVER MOMENTS - 9.5/10 The song kicks off immediately with a grand piano playing a serene tune, before the acoustics kick in with a clean s...

A Journey from Humanity to Nature - Nightwish "Human. :||: Nature." Track-By-Track Review

Nightwish is a band that is one of the reasons why I got into metal in the first place. They have and still are quite an influence for me for many reasons, being that it's symphonic side is what captivates me as well as the magic they have from every beginning to end of a song they release or have. Their previous album Endless Forms Most Beautiful , released back in 2015 - I remember my excitement and eagerness to listen to the album when it came out. I almost could not sleep that night five years ago because of how excited I was to hear something new from the Finnish masters of symphonic power metal. I wasn't disappointed to say the least. Then come in 2019. News comes in that they are making a new album. And a two disc album to my own surprise! I was really excited to hear this, just like five years ago. They released their two singles in the last two months and I ended up listening to them a lot to the point where I could then find myself singing the songs. Having receiv...

November 2017 - A Missed Opportunity

Hello everyone! How is everyone doing? I'd like to first off apologize for the long delay of posting for a while as I have been doing my own thing which also includes being at work. Not exactly the easiest you know. I've delayed a hella lot on concert reviews and thoughts, but I will most likely have one coming up in early December, with an album review coming before. Well, since I missed writing for October, I will be including 10 songs for this blog post for favorite songs of November 2017. 10. Animals as Leaders - On Impulse I recall that this was the first AAL song that I have heard, which includes one of my favorite guitar players ever: Tosin Abasi. For this album and as a guitar player in general, he uses an eight-string guitar, and uses the bottom string as part of bass. This would probably be one of my favorites as well as a few others. 9. Between the Buried and Me - Lay Your Ghosts to Rest At least one or two of my friends have recommended this band t...
