Heard This Song For The First Time Today (Warning:It's DARK!)

It was released earlier this year.
I really like it. It rocks & there's tons going on musically.
But, the video is dark with violent imagery (movie style), so don't click if that sort of thing bothers you.
Or, click & listen but don't watch it.

didn't strike me as that outrageous. I've also posted a song by Die Toten Hosen that ends with a strongly implied murder/suicide (just realized I posted that in a thread about them in the Lounge, not here - https://democraticunderground.com/10181664814#post51 ).

This Falling In Reverse video is interesting, musically. I knew nothing about the band, had to google them. Quite a strange history.

I will check out more of their music.

When I was googling them a recent news story popped up that I think I'll link to here, since I remember your commenting on some musician friends you felt had become too reliant on technology:

Yep, if those guys (who I saw again by dropping in on a rehearsal last Sunday) lost a computer, they'd be sunk.
They're playing to backing tracks on one laptop & using another to run the mix. Either computer fails, they've got nothing.
That said, these guys can play enough that they could 3 piece it if they had to.
I don't know enough about Falling... to know if they could pull it off or not. Obviously, they don't think they can.
