Lowlands 2013

Last saturday (2-2-'13) was the time of the year again, I had to buy tickets to Lowlands Festival again. So I anxiously sat in front of my computer and waited... And waited... When the ticket sale began, there was a waiting line to get on the site. After 30 minutes of waiting I finally got through and was able to purchase tickets for me and my bf! I am so excited, this is going to be my fourth year in a row.
And I am so glad that disclosure is coming, because I am addicted to 'Latch'.

Skrillex

I'm very sorry for not posting for a long time! I will make it up to you, i promise ;)
But i am very sorry to announce that i will have to make you jealous again, this time by telling you that i got tickets to see skrillex on the 28th of april!
His music is okay, but his show is AWESOME and i am really excited already!

So, therefore, his new single: Bangarang

Kasabian

Yeah guys i have got tickets to see Kasabian!
Even though it's 3 march, i am already super excited! I love love love Kasabian!

So to make you all jealous:

Me is happy ;D

I'm Not A Vampire

On october 24th, Falling in Reverse released a new music video for the song 'I'm Not A Vampire'.
I was super excited because this is one of my favourite songs of their debut album. And i love the video now too! The video takes place in rehab, which has got to do with Ronnie's drug addiction. In the beginning it also says 'Reality Rehab' in the video, which has got to do with Ronnie's comeback. It's all so surreal, he left Escape The Fate, went to prison and came back stronger than ever. They need a reality check sometimes.
Enough said, enjoy this amazing video!

Random

I just wanted to make a long random post. I think it's called: 'avoiding the studying i should actually be doing for my exam week.'
Anyway, there is going to be a new Wolfmother album on November 7th. Excited! It will be the first album with their new drummer.

I am listening to this at the moment:

Love this song so much! I just adore DeWolff! Seen them live 2 weeks ago and again it was G-R-E-A-T! The boys are so young, yet they have such a mature sound. They don't even have a bass player and they don't need it, they rock! Plus they are really cute, that's just a nice extra ;)

Cool news! Dave Grohl is replacing the drummer for Cage The Elephant for a certain time, because he is sick or something. It's so cool to see Dave Grohl play the drums again. Just like he does in Them Crooked Vultures.  I think i like him better as a drummer than as a singer (he is a good singer though, he is just a brilliant drummer).

I am very annoyed by the fact that Kink FM is off the radio... I want Kink FM back!!! Or at least give us a radio station that plays good alternative music.

Well i think i've bored you enough, so now i really have to start studying byexxxxxxxxxx

Red Hot Chili Peppers

OH MY GOD!!!!
Red Hot Chili Peppers was yesterday and it was A-MA-ZING!!! I still can't believe i've actually seen them live. Damn, it was so great. Funny is that i have exam week this week and today i had maths and dutch but i really don't give a %&$( if i fail, RHCP is so worth it! Wow. I don't have enough words.
Flea is just a brilliant bass player, anthony is just as good live as on CD, Josh is the best possible replacement they could've found for John and Chad is so energetic.

So for you, this song. It's been stuck in my head since the concert and damn i want to go back and re-do yesterday!

Gotye

There is this Australian-Belgian Singer-songwriter (that's a mouth ful) who is starting to break through in the music scene. More the poppy music scene though, which i normally don't like, but his music is beautiful!
His real name is Wouter de Backer. Gotye is a name his mother gave him when he was little.
The song i wanted to show you, called Somebody That I Used To Know featuring Kimbra, is a big hit in The Netherlands. It's just beautiful.

enjoy!

Nirvana

Again another post about Nirvana. I can't help it, they're my favourite band and they always will be. Today was the Nevermind documentary on television and immediately after that a concert of Nirvana in Paradiso. I have watched them both and got reminden again why i love Nirvana so much. They're brilliant, i would give up everything to see them live. 

So for you one of my favourite songs from Bleach.

Nirvana - Love buzz

Inside my head

Two songs have been stuck in my head for the past weeks, so I thought it would be fun to share them with you. 

Caution! Can be dangerous for you/family/friends when the songs get stuck in your head too. (you'll be the one who will be singing them all the time and they'll be the ones who have to deal with you singing ;p)

Wolf Gang - Lions in Cages

Btw, i have also seen them live (on lowlands) which was cute :)

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Brendan's Death Song

One of my favourite songs of their new album, I'm With You.

Appelpop

Two weeks ago, I have been to a free festival in Tiel. Appelpop. It's small festival, completely loaded with people. It's so crowded! But anyway, i had a great time with my friends. The line-up is usually not that great, most of the time 2/3 great bands, but the atmosphere is good :)
I wanted to make this post to show you two of my own videos (:D) and to promote the bands, because they really deserve to be promoted.

The first one is De Staat.

De Staat - Ah I See

This is one of the most original bands in the Netherlands. They use a big machine (which you see at the middle of the stage) in a song. They have a unique sounds and a unique performance. From the clothes to the instruments used (in this video they use a steering wheel as an instrument), De Staat is different. I love it!

DeWolff - Seashell Woman

DeWolff is one of my favourite bands at the moment. I have seen them on Lowlands, Appelpop and i am going to see them again on october 8th. Three young boys, two brothers and a friend, who make music like they've been in this business for many years. They don't even have a bass player (even though the keyboard player plays the bass sometimes) and still manage to have a warm and 'full' sound. They have catchy rock 'n roll songs which make the whole crowd go crazy. If DeWolff goes on like this, we'll hear a lot more from them!

Both videos have been made by me

Kasabian

Like I promised, a video of one of the songs of the Kasabian album! I had a really hard time chosing which one to put in this post, so i grabbed my ipod, pressed shuffle and the first one that came up was re-wired (which i forgot to recommend btw).
Enjoy!

I think i am going to post all the songs of the album, because i like all of them except one. So if you want to hear more, stay tuned!

Nevermind

Let's all take a moment to remember the (in my opinion) greatest album ever, Nevermind. Because this year is its 20th anniversary.

Kasabian

Kasabian did it again! Last friday they realeased their 4th album already, called Velociraptor! After kasabian, empire and west ryder pauper lunatic asylum another masterpiece. They re-invented theirselves again, without losing their unique kasabian-sound.
This album has got catchy lyrics, electronical beats yet still a rock 'n roll attitude. I just love it!
I am on the iPad now, so i will post a video of one of the songs later. In the meantime, you guys can also look the songs up for yourselves ;) i recommend i hear voices, let's roll just like we used to, days are forgotten, switchblade smiles, man of simple pleasures and la fee verte. Enjoy!

LOWLANDS

GUYZ! I HAVE HAD THE BEST WEEKEND OF THIS YEAR! LOWLANDS! OMG IT WAS PERFECT! JUST PERFECT!
We had to wait 2 hours for a freaking bus, 4 hours for the lowlands-bracelets (which are fucking ugly btw) and it rained a lot on our first day, but the next three days made up for that.
I can't really explain why i feel so good @ Lowlands, it just makes me feel at home. The music, the atmosphere, the people, just everything is good!
My favourites this weekend were: Crystal Castles, Fleet Foxes, Skrillex, Omar Souleyman and Emalkay.

So.. Crystal Castles. Sat there an hour before they began, but hey! At least we stood in the middle, at the fence, which is completely at the front. They started 15 minutes too late and ended 5 minutes too early, but their show is so great! Creepy, intimidating, dark. Perfect. I even touched Alice Glass' hand!

(sorry for the quality of this video)

Then Fleet Foxes. Again, sat there an hour before they begain and again stood at the fence. They were very modest. When they came on stage, everyone clapped and they couldn't believe the reaction of the people was so good. I don't know why this is, because their music is beautiful. And live is even better! Goosebumps throughout the whole show.

Skrillex. YES OH MY GOD! This is what you can hear in one of his songs and this explains my thoughts about the show completely. That was the biggest party i had ever seen, fucking hell. Everyone was covered in sweat from head to toe. My shirt was wet, just soaking wet. I love Skrillex, he brings so much energy on stage and people pick it up and go crazy.

(sorry for the quality of this video)

Omar Souleyman. I went there as a joke, but it turned out to be amazing! He is from Syria and gets to play on a lot of weddings and parties there. When i saw he was coming to Lowlands, i thought: WHAT THE HELL? Then i listened to the music and thought: why not check it out just for fun? Well it was fun, a lot of fun! The whole x-ray was loaded and everyone had a blast!

(sorry for the quality of this video)

And last but not least, Emalkay. One of my favourite dubstep producers and the last artist to play in the x-ray. I thought this was going to be amazing and i was right! I love his music and it was so good live.

(sorry for the quality of this video)

The Drug In Me Is You

You guys know how much i love Ronnie Radke, right? Well, his new band Falling In Reverse released their debut Album! It's called The Drug In Me Is You.
I L-O-V-E the album! It's energetic, has great guitar-riffs and ofcourse Ronnie's voice is making me a typical fangirl again *squeels*.

One of my favourite songs of the album:

This is called I'm Not A Vampire. I love the guitar in this song, it's energetic. I want to get off my lazy ass and jump around the room. The lyrics is funny, 'Hi my name is Ronnie I'm an addict. *HI RONNIE!* Daddy should have never raised me on Black Sabbath.'

Ronnie is back! I hope he never goes back to prison and keeps on doing what he's doing, cuz he's so talented. Making music is just what he does and he should never stop.

The Adventures Of Rain Dance Maggie

I have returned from my vacation in Terschelling and Croatia! I had a blast, really. It was so great! Had the most fun with my friends in Terschelling and I had great weather and met nice people in Croatia together with my family and my best friend's family :)

But, back to business. While I was away, Red Hot Chili Peppers released a new single, called The Adventures Of Rain Dance Maggie. This is from their coming album, I'm With You, to be released on august 30th. 

I like the single. When I first listened to it, I thought: hmmm, this is... i don't know. But I listened to it more and started to like it better each time. Now i really like it. It's old RHCP style, with a new twist. Can't wait to hear the new album AND see them live!!!

Vacation

Yay, today was the first day of my official summer vacation! I got my marks back from the test week, and i must say i am really satisfied. One bad mark, for economics, but i didn't do anything for it so hey i don't f***ing care!
Now, i want to say goodbye to you, because i will be going away for 10 days with my amazing friends! We are going on a holiday to Terschelling, an island which of part The Netherlands. It will be drinking, partying and sleeping the whole time i guess, so I will not be able to post.
I apologise for that, wish you all the greatest holiday you've ever had! Eat enough vegetables! ;)

What would this post be without any kind of music involved? You know me...
Therefore, this song from Matisyahu.

My friends think he's a hero and to honour my friends and express my excitement for this holiday, here's this song.

Enjoy!!!

Falling In Reverse Music Video

YAY! The first Falling In Reverse Music Video is out! I am crying like a baby right now, Ronnie Radke had been my hero since i first heard his voice and now he's back! He's $8$8)_$3_89&#82&( back!

This video, The Drug In Me Is You, is why i cried like a baby:

Isn't this great???

His voice is still so lovely! And his looks!
And I must say the band is really great too! I like them better than the present Escape the Fate, a lot better.

PS. Their new album will be in stores on 26th july

RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS

I'VE GOT TICKETS TO SEE RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS IN AHOY, ROTTERDAM!!!!

Piercings

I wanted to post something again, that hasn't got anything to do with music. So therefore i though: 'what can i post?' I can never think of something interesting, but then i thought.'why not make a post about something i am really interested in.' So i dug in my mind and found a subject.
PIERCINGS!
I am just totally in love with any kind of piercing. I don't know why. I am just obsessed with piercings and tattoos.

I have one piercing myself, a helix.

This is a helix piercing. I got it when i was 14, for my birthday. This was the only piercing i was allowed to get. Now i am 16, and i think that i'm old enough to decide for myself. I have wanted more piercings since i got the helix. Now i don't know which one to get, therefore i want your help.
I will show the piercings I really like, and you can vote for the one you like the most, okay? :)

Okay, the first one, a septum.

I really like this kind of piercing. I think it looks extremely awesome and tough.

Second one, a lip piercing.

I have wanted a lip piercing for ages, but I don't know if i still want it, because there are so many other piercings that i like.

Third one, a smiley piercing.

I like this one because it's only visible when you smile, that's what i think is so cool. I just wonder if it isn't irritating.

The last one i would like, collarbone piercings.

These are skin plates, on your collarbones. They look so cool! The only thing about these is that it could be annoying with your clothes and showering etc.

So, which one do you guys like the most?
