  • Hollowmind - Soundscape of Emotions

    17 Nov 2007, 01:28

    Okay, this may sound a little bit biased and I really don't care if it does. But this new release, from a friend of mine's band is good. Very good. The band is called Hollowmind and the album is called Soundscape of Emotions. If you like quality heavy metal with a flavor of progressive rock, they are worth a listen or two.

    Roberto, the singer, bass player and songwriter for all songs in the album is a good old friend of mine and he has put several hours of his life into this production. Alexandre Silveira, the man behind all guitars was also terrific on composing all the insane guitar solos from this album, like the ones in PlayBeyond the Distance - The Song of Confidence.

    Check them out.
  • Funeral for a Friend

    I was recommended this band by Last.fm, when I was listening to Keane or Coldplay... Checked some of their songs, they sound like a simple, yet interesting rock band. Check out their latest video from their latest single:

  • Asia 25th Anniversary Tour - Sao Paulo leg

    28 Mar 2007, 03:33

    Sábado 24 Mar – Asia
    O show do Asia no Credicard Hall foi composto por músicas basicamente do primeiro disco do Asia, aproveitando a atual formação da banda. Além das músicas da banda, os músicos também aproveitaram para tocar músicas das bandas pelas quais os quatro componentes do Asia passaram ao longo das últimas décadas (Yes - Steve Howe; Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Carl Palmer; The Buggles - Geoff Downes; King Crimson - John Wetton).

    Foi gratificante ver que todos os músicos estão em excelente forma, mesmo depois de tantos anos de estrada.

    Apesar de alguns problemas técnicos no som do Credicard Hall no início do evento, a qualidade do show foi muito boa, em geral. Excelente pedida para os fãs do gênero.
  • Dreamer Easy in the Chair that Really Fits You

    25 Feb 2007, 03:40

    Don't ask me what it means. I don't know. I don't have any idea. This line is from Yes' PlayHeart of the Sunrise song and it is probably from Jon Anderson's mind. Sometimes I try to figure out what the chair that really fits someone could be or what a "Dreamer Easy" really means... But then I give up and just listen to the music. It is a hell of a song, one of my all-time favorites! Any ideas?
