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.

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.
