Uncle Acid And The Deadbeats - I'll Cut You Down

Yesterday, was the Hard Rock Society's annual meeting, for the fifth year in a row at the Twelfth Night. A really wonderful event where 12 music geeks drinking beer and playing music, talking music and dreaming music. Alot of music will be played under a event like this, eight categories are examined, with each disc incisions around 40 minutes times 12:) Holy moses, but hell this is fun.

Here is my choices under each category that I stood for during this evening.

1. Band, That I Missed Live: Thin Lizzy - Are You Ready
One of the bands that I really wanted to see live when I was younger, but unfortunately never got the chance and now it's too late.

2. Bang Your Head: Motörhead - Overkill
This is a category that it really is plenty to choose from, but this is a song that I could never stand still when it is played.

3. Worst Production: Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats - I'll Cut You Down
There are also plenty of bands who are suffering from a bad production but still got something so you can listen to it. This band I have selected seems to have tried a little too much to get to the old classic garage sound, so the sound is a bit too messy, but the song is great.

4. Best Ballad: Great White - Since I've Been Loving You
Ballad, hmm... In this case, quite simply, do not want to play "Wind Of Change" exactly, but choose a really great classics from the world's top band "Led Zeppelin", to spice it up a bit, I picked a really good cover of this performed by Great White .

5. Best Song Title: Ministry - Jesus Built My Hotrod
Right troublesome category, wanted something clever and good, so it had simply become a Ministry

6. Music For A Darkened Room: Opeth - Coil
A category that can be interpreted in many ways, my interpretation was a bit romantic, candlelight, a bottle of fine wine and a partner to share this with.

7. Honor The Dead: Patti Smith - Smells Like Teen Spirit
One category that you can celebrate their heroes one of, have already paid tribute to John Bonham in the ballad, so I could not take one more Led Zeppelin song, Dio is guaranteed to be choosed by someone else so this becomes too obvious. In the end, I looked at the classic twenty-seven year old deaths and found Kurt Cobain and his Nirvana, a song that does not directly have been a favorite, but when I heard Patti Smith's version of Smells Like Teen Spirit, I got sold, flowersinyourhead as good it is.

8. Best Right Now: Vektor - Cosmic Cortex
An obvious choice right now, an album has been played dozens of times and recommended warmly.

Here are some pictures.

Motörhead - Rock Out

The past weekend did the music stand in the "middle" as usual. This time, we got a pleasant visit from Motörhead. The band that once again did stop here on their tour, they regularly visit Sweden during their almost constant touring. Have actually lost count how many times I've seen them live. This time, was they accompanied with the Norwegian guy called Jorn, who was the support act on this run.

Same day as this, it were an release party of the new Motörhead Vodka.

Demonia did visit the party, you can read about it here!

Motörhead delivered as expected and it had actually been great to have to have the opportunity to photograph the gig, but there was no time on this occasion so I have just a little stray images. But a good friend had actually had time, so I offer some really awesome pictures from Micke Sandström, Enjoy.
