Industrial Addiction

Random Expressions To The Industrial Genre

by User ImageAmbient Decay on March 25th, 2008

Sitting back and listening to a few artists that have incorporated classical instruments into their music seems to always amaze. Emilie Autumn is astounding when she lets loose on her custom violin, or when Shadows in The Dark doesn’t say a word and bedazzles people with just a piano.

A friend recently sent me a song by Within Temptation called “Running Up That Hill”. Now WHERE have I heard that song from..? oh yeah..

Placebo.

Rock on, I thought. Within Temptation most often has decent music and the chick can sing. Plus since I’m a remix fiend, this was like getting a gift card for McDonalds when you are broke! So I gave it a listen and at first I really didn’t care for it. I then listened to it about 3 more times and I understand why I didn’t like it first.

They actually make the song non-depressing. (Okay so it took me a bit longer than normal to figure something out… I’ve been up for 36 hours get off my back). I do enjoy the song NOW, and mainly the intro of the song with the “windpipes” or whatever they are playing.

Kinda reminds me of those Chinese movies that are set back in the Han Dynasty era.

    Hey, i really enjoy your blog. I think that I may just start reading regularly.
    I have a bit of advice, do you recommend Placebo?
    Are there any bands that they have a similar tone to? I have heard a lot of people talk about that band, but I guess I never really took the time to listen to them despite my interest in music.
