Tune Tuesday

I have no photos at the moment to update my blog with so I decided to get inspiration from some other blogs that I have come across recently and do a Tune Tuesday! :D Just some music that I have come across and have been listening to recently. I might try some other ones like Movie Monday, Weekly Links Wednesday, This Is Me Thursday (ideas from Samantha Nandez Photography) and anything else I can think of for other days! Not sure if I'll be able to keep it up but it will make me more active on this blog! I don't like leaving it not updated for long! Anyhow if you have any other ideas of what I can do or what you would like to see let me know thanks!

On to the music....

Foetus

I was google images of Henry Rollins (Yes this is what I do with my time :P) and somehow ended up on flickr when I spotted a thumbnail view of a portrait. From the thumbnail view I actually thought it looked like Tom Waits because of his hair but it was an artist called "Foetus". He looks quite mad in the photo, a commenter even says so along with ""the nail" is spectacular". The photo is here btw if you want to take a look (you can see Henry is the next photo hehe!)

So with some more googling and youtubing I found out that Foetus is a man called J. G. Thirlwell. With some youtubing I listened to some tracks from the album "Nail" and soon after I downloaded it I liked it that much! Its hard to explain the type of music it is. It seems to be put under the genre of Industrial mostly but I think I would sit it in Experimental! It is very odd indeed. To me I can hear sounds of Mr. Bungle, Captain Beefheart (RIP), Tom Waits and it kind of reminds me of Nine Inch Nails first album Pretty Hate Machine. Its has that 80's thing. That is what I think anyhow. It won't be to everyones taste but tbh I really love it! I have to check out his other albums as there is quite a few of them (Including other acts and solo stuff) so the sound could change quite a bit.

Foetus - Thrown Of Agony


Decent Into Inferno



Danzig

I've also being listening to a lot, A LOT of Danzig. I really really love Danzig and I have their self titled album listened to through and through. Finally got around to listening to Danzig II: Lucifuge which is just fantastic. My favourite track at the moment is "Killer Wolf" oh I just love it and you have to check out the great video to go along with it haha! :D



Spinnerette 

Last but not least for this post is "Spinnerette - Ghetto Love" Brody Dalle's awesome solo project! I honestly could just have this song on repeat forever. Its just so good! Also I want her tophat!



Enjoy those tunes and hopefully I will have more next week if I remember to do this lol! :D
