Velvet Acid Christ News Nov 19th 2007.

November 19th, 2007 by Hexfix93

Okay, We have a new site here now. It is a magazine now, well kind of, sort of a blog, well kind of. Let’s just say that it is a media hub. Where we (velvet acid christ) write reviews about all the things that inspire us. The things that make our hearts tick. I normally get depressed, but when i am into all these video games, this music, this anime, this gear, i don’t have time to be sad. So i plan on immersing myself as part of my therapy. Hopefully this benefits all of you who are thirsty for new things to listen to, watch, play, learn etc. But the main thing, i think the scene has lost focus on good music, on good art. Now its more about being trendy and sucking. I hope to cut through all that, and show the read deal. The stuff that is good with out being super trendy and clicky. I will not suck the cock of any record label, or other people in any scene. If i don’t like it, it will not be spoken of here. So. I’m going to focus on the strange, the dark, the different. That is the goal here. Hope you like it..

 

Look who won!!! Pretty Toy click here!, good job mr gaddy. Ok so let me update a few things, I got a line 6 amp and no longer need the pod, please buy it, need the money. I love my ps3, i love my psp, i love playing my acoustic guitar. Today is about love.

I love curse of the golden flower as well. I am making my new record with logic 8, and kick ass hardware, so if it sucks, it means i suck. But so far, it doesnt suck. I am still looking to put together a band. I am a health nazi again, feeling great, eating raw. working out. Really into my new sony walkman mp3 player, 8 gig model, with my ultimate ears headphones. i love the jericho game on ps3, i love skate on ps3, i love wariors on psp, i love gta vice city on psp, i love songs written in the key of G, minor. lol. I’m listeing to the pink dots again, and pyromania by def leppard, oh and the knife still, oh and some diamanda galas on top. I also recently bought some mp3s off amazon.com, i got 2 yeah yeah yeah’s lps, and the new young pony club. I love it, good sound quality and cheap, 8.99 an lp. happy days. I want to make brutal music. Stuff that is way out there but catchy but evil and dark as hell. Don’t for a second think that i has gone to fluffy land. I’m not your typical health nut, I think i will post some new studio clips up very soon, show off working on music with the modular and stuff. So stay tuned.

Music: Loved by The Cranes. Disease Factory’s take.

November 19th, 2007 by Hexfix93

lfb2 Loved
  1. Shining Road
  2. Pale Blue Sky
  3. Reverie
  4. Lilies
  5. Are You Gone?
  6. Loved
  7. Beautiful Friend
  8. Bewildered
  9. Come This Far
  10. Paris and Rome
  11. In The Night
  12. Shining Road (Brauer Mix)
  13. Paris and Rome (Flood Mix)
  14. Lilies (Flood Mix)

For a long time, this has been one of my favorite lps of all time. I listen to this when i am down, and lately that is a lot. Again, what makes me love this band? The very non typical vocals. Like an Erie little girl haunting you. The music has energy, a lot of energy. The guitars are very powerful, the bass drives, and the drums are always matching. From very pretty and beautiful, to angry and thriving and driving.

 

I would put this band in the post 4ad label as well. I hear a ton of influences in their sound, from fleetwood mac, to the cure. Some of the songs just sound like monsters. Lilies for example, this song is jacked and strange. My Favorite song on the record is Beautiful Friend. Those long guitar bends, kind of like Chris Isaak but not lame..

This is a band that never got enough credit. To me their music is timeless. And even after all these years, i still listen to it constantly. Ok now for my favorite songs off this lp, Shining road, Reverie, Beautiful Friend, Loved, Come This far. You will either love it, or hate it. A lot of people cannot get past the voice. Well, that is what i will be show casing mostly on this site. Vocalists who are unique and original and really expressive. If you like boring typical tones and voices, well, i wont be showing you much of that here. Sorry. Any way. If you like this, go buy it! Click here to buy.

Music: Show your bones by Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Disease Factory’s Take.

November 19th, 2007 by Hexfix93

lfb2 Show your bones
  1. Gold Lion
  2. Way Out
  3. Fancy
  4. Phenomena
  5. Honeybear
  6. Cheated Hearts
  7. Dudley
  8. Mysteries
  9. Sweets
  10. Warrior
  11. Turn Into

Wow. I bought this on a whim, I was bored and needed something new and fresh. I got this record off of amazon, i downloaded it for 8.99. What a deal, the sound quality is good (256 bitrate), the lp art is embedded into the mp3s. Awesome. My first time buying music online. I am not an Itunes fan at all, i don’t like itunes, cannot search files by folders and directories, so it puts me off big time, not to mention the drm. Enough of that. On amazon i download their downloader, and click to buy, and it throws it on my computer drm free, and i can use it on any player.. GREAT! wow a review of amazon.com music store along with this yeah yeah yeahs review.. ahahaahah. Enough of that.

 

Well the above Video is a good example of why i was attracted to this band. I love strange singers who act out the sound and freak out. I love strange voices that don’t sound like every other typical voice you hear when listening to people talk etc. She reminds me of Siouxsie meets Lene Lovich. How can i explain the sound, how about this, a more rocked out 4ad band. It has this huge rock sound to it, but still has that strange edge that kind of puts it with bands like joy division, the cure, Siouxsie. I know these days there are all these new labels the kids throw around, emo, hipster, whatever. i don’t know, and don’t care what crowd of people listens to it. The point is i like it. I recommend checking this out if any of what i am writing is making sense at all to you.. Song’s that i like the most are Gold Lion, Way Out, Fancy, Phenomena. Very rock oriented. But doesn’t sound like everything else out there. Most new music sucks ass, So it’s very rare that i would recommend a current band. But here it is. Check this out. and hell on amazon.com it won’t set you back to bad.. Click here to buy.

VAC: Pretty Toy Video Wins Awards! Not Kid Safe, Not Work Safe!

November 19th, 2007 by Hexfix93

Shawn Gaddy won the award for “Creepiest Character” in a short film on this site here: http://www.chillertv.com/Dare_To_Direct/. That is really good news. The other thing is, i plan on using him as my artist again, he made the header for this page, the art. I hope to get a budget for another video, i could never afford to pay him for this video. And that really sucks. It was worth much more than he ever got. He tried to sell dvds, and didn’t have much luck. So he gave me a kick ass cut of the new new version of pretty toy to do what i want with. So i uploaded it to youtube. and here it is. If you are underage. Don’t bother..

I hope in the future, Shawn and i can work to bring even creepier stuff than this. I am seriously going way more horror on the new record. Darker, And Darker i go. Enjoy!
