Now that August has come to a close, here is a new Top5 Spotify Playlist, in the order I would listen to these songs. It has been a while since Over The Under by Down came out but “On March The Saints” is a song I have listened to over the years, and having purchased a copy this o month the song got stuck in my head once again.
One summer, a long time ago I had Collected by Massive Attack on rotation and this August I decided to revisit some of my favorite songs, first “Risingson” and later, “Sly”. Both songs are polar opposites: “Risingson” is a bass driven, dark, atmospheric song that relies on both vocalists rap, while “Sly” is an orchestral affair with uplifting lyrics sung by Nicolette. Both are different sides of Massive Attack, and both are incredibly catchy in their own right.
Having seen last year Lacuna Coil live, many of the songs played that night are still with me, with the original version of “Swamped” being one of my favorite ones from their setlist and subsequent listens!
Many years ago, I bought several records by Fear Factory, but only this month did I dedicate myself to listen to Obsolete, and “Resurrection” stuck out for me. It is a song where Burton C. Bell’s voice is used in all in its range, showing how much he is capable of. Also, the use of live strings along with synths (by regular colaborator Rhys Fulber) adds a lot to the groove by the bands instruments (guitar, bass and drums) and makes the song sound more epic.
