Normal. I like what I hear but after about a minute it's starting to be too much. The same way I'm not really into concerts even of the artists I like. I like their songs and all but big concert, the way it sounds is just too much for me.. I went to rawa blues once. The big concerts weren't my thing. But after, sitting on the floor in some bar listening to the same type of music- heaven.
Poles are very good at Heavy Metal, but I would call most Polish bands of that ilk, VERY METAL. Which is why I don't post their music on here.Most of you would hate it!Have any of you heard music from the Polish band Behemoth?Or seen their videos?I rest my case.
I will try with a few Heavy Polish bands and see how we go.This lot use a bit of electronica, which slightly softens their edge.....see what you think.
This lot were one of Adrian's(RIP) favourite Polish Rock bands.
Coma are one of my favourite Polish Rock Bands.Hopefully, you will like this one.
I'll end with a band that will challenge you.They are basically a Polish/Celtic Folk band that incorporate Hard Rock/Heavy Metal into their music, but being young,they use "The Grunt" which is the term for that "growling" voice used in a lot of new Metal.I am curious to see any reactions!They are called Netherfell.
I still prefer Old timer jazz, boogey-woogey, "The Duke" Ellington, some early Beatles, Paul Mauriac "Love is blue" (L'amour est bleu) and a whole bunch of antedelluvian hits:-)
Two versions of that posted last night in the other music thread.
If you like that, you'll probably like Nick Drake. Alive (sadly for all too short a time) and writing msic at the same time as L'amour est bleu. I'll post something there.
This kind of music is not to my taste, but Poles are very good at it.And although the music does not do it for me personally, I can appreciate the fact that these guys know how to play!
Some less Rocky posts from me tonight.
Polish music is so varied and very broad.
Whilst lacking the "Umph" that American and British Funk have, this is pretty good.
Rock Music still survives in Poland, but it is changing with the influence of other forms of music that are more appealing to the young Poles. This is from 10 years ago and as you can see, Rock was still big then....
Classic old Polish Hard Rock!I don't know why, but you need to click on "Watch on YouTube" to see this video.
My last post.I like the music but I think that the old videos swung me...... reminded me of my childhood.....
Jazz is a genre that I like some aspects of but I am no expert.Even less so with Polish Jazz.I know it was quite big in Poland in the 1930's and then the war came along.After the war, when Stalin ruled, Jazz was suppressed as a subversive form of music.When he died, Rock'n'Roll was seen as a greater threat by the Communists and Jazz was again tolerated as a less subversive alternative.As I said, I don't know much about Polish Jazz but I know a few names. Here is my first post of three;
This is my second Polish Jazz post tonight;
My last Polish Jazz post;
If you know more about Polish Jazz than I do(Not difficult!) please post on this thread, I am especially interested in the older stuff.
I absolutely loved your post too!Great song, great video and I loved the use of Red and white in the video too, intentional or not!
I have just one very late night post tonight. Many of you have probably seen this before but I think it is so sensational that it deserves to be heard again.
