Lilitu :
LILITU's enchanting, heavily melancholic sound is lush and deeply moody. Their command of rich harmony and sweeping, expressive dynamics is amazing. - Terrorizer
Lilitu doesnt rest on one style very long, rather they embrace the challenge of creating music with passion and intellect, adding fragments of styles to the music, as if the were painters adding colors to a canvas as the music goes along. Unrestrained
Ministry :
A tribute to MINISTRY, one of the most outspoken, Interesting & anti-Mainstreem "older" band that there ever was...
Well mainly the front man, who is the basic core and driving force behind it, Al Jourgensen.. his preseverance and fighting for what he believes, dispite insumountable problems and dificulties, personal and related....
The vein of his band's recent music has been to expose and uncover the lies and deception in the current world situation regarding government corruption and deciet and abuse of power. through his music.. as for thier 2 latest releases, the message is thier music..
and we end with.... "power corrupts.... and absolute power corrupts absolutely."
Poets of The Fall:
"Maybe tomorrow is a better day..."
... Is all about hope. Hope, now, is a tricky thing. A real double edged sword. It is the sole power that keeps mankind on its feet. Heads up and at it. Even in time of crisis. An invaluable force of nature. But as hope can be true... it can also be false. We choose the way to go, but will the road set us free? I wrote the lyrics to 'Maybe tomorrow is a better day' in context with this duality. In other words, where there is hope there must be doubt. There is no one without the other. And so, devilishly, parts of the lyric can be experienced either as doubting or as giving true hope... it is up to you to give it meaning."
The Fray:
Their debut album, How to Save a Life, became the best selling digital album of all time, and has sold over 2 million copies. The album reached the top fifteen of the Billboard 200 album charts and was certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.
