Tiempos Draconicos: Bavaro's Blues

I AM BACK!!

not really back I am on Dominican Republic and I am trying to live off the dream. I am in one of the best Hotel in Dominican Republic. It’s A five star monster resort. It has a beach and three swimming pools and a disco and the biggest, more bad assed restaurant. and it’s just plain awesome and I love it.

I have many stories to tell and I will try and write off each day in the morning (i mean the day before)

So yesterday we got here and we were happy. The trip by plane was so awesome I just can’t forget it. It was AWESOME!!! And I love it. I love flying in Planes. I have some pictures of the islands from above in the sky. Also Some of the resort. But it was late at night and I hope I can take some more pictures today in the evening. OF ALL THE RESORT

I will try to take pictures of myself but hey I am only human.

So we got to santo Domingo and into a van and drove three hours to here. In the way, my boss, gave me a Presidente... A BEER, but it was THE BEER, it was enormously BIG, it was 650ml almost half liter I mean COME ON!!

So i did drink half of it, and it was good. so good. after that we got to the resort, argued with the front desk guy because of the room (it was hilarious we are such nice tourist making the guy laugh with us instead of fight) and then we got here. I took three pictures, of the bathroom of the room. I will in a bit take pictures of everything else in this place. because is awesome.

We went t eat and the buffet is SO SO SO SO SO BIG that i didn’t know what I wanted to eat! I think it was so amazingly big that I lost my appetite right away

first I ate some Steak with a weird salad and a Wiener. after I finished I went for fries and mashed potatoes with baked pork and a chicken steak FUCKING AWESOME, and after that some desserts, cheesecake with ice cream. I am so very happy. I went after that sightseeing. Looking the place at night is just beautiful. You peeps will love it when I can afford all of you staying here with moi.

And after that We went to the beach that was so awesome.. And the sand so white. and the place so awesome. And so many different people talking so many different languages. Eh?

Then I came to bed, surfed the net in the beautiful lobby and had a of fun. A lot of fun. And I still think this is one of the best places I have come to be. Astonished and out of my mind. I dread the day i have to return to my own country but I will try and not even think about it. It’s Definately not worth my energy...

Now... What will I do today...

Tiempos Draconicos XXXVII: Musical Exo Skeleton

In this one little thing I'ma explore the skeleton of a song of many genres! I have been writing this piece for a while and Now it's time to start to dwelve in it.

Trash Metal:

This songs are awesome, perse, their theme is about war, death and destruction, and sometimes, how god hates us all. Big trashers are:  Anthrax, Slayer, Sodom, Metallica, Megadeth, And many many others.

The structure is as follows:

Intro, begin of the song, Chorus, And here comes the interesting part, THE SOLO, it is a pointless, mindless, fast, mind melting, trash at the guitar with such awesome speed and technique you would say it was all planned but no! it's just mindless tapping in a sort of way "how many notes you can smash into 1:30 minutes", Chorus, End of the song

Heavy Metal:

This songs are classics and practically defined everything we know today and take as granted. Big exponents are later metallica, Iron maiden, Iced Earth, Judas Priest, Manowar, Black Sabbath and Dio, Among others.

The structure is easier, intro, Chorus, Solo that must be said are always best arranged and are perfectly coded to sound near perfect, and an outro. Usually these songs a catchy and become mainstream and Classics of rock. Examples would Master of Puppets by metallica, fear of the dark by Iron maiden And so on.

Emo metal:

This songs are extremely slow and are the extasis of the commercial impact of MTV in the music. these bands are My chemical romance, Simple Plan, Good Charlotte, and almost every single new band that has been coming out for a while.

The structure is... ONE LONG SUICIDE NOTE... most of them (being the only exception the guys in MCR who like to talk about killing other people) Are extremely slow and drowzy with men singing with feminine tones and pain in their tongues. The structure is as simple as it gets, Intro, Chorus, Outro, usually they are catchy for angsty Teenager or those who believe these are trendy or something.

In my humble opinion these bands are the WORSE impact in music, and the AIDS of the sound Spectrum. Also has the worse impact on teenager, making them think they deserve everything just by being born instead of earning it with work and sweat.

Power Metal:

The power metal has two connotations, one is the HEAVIER side made in the us, and the other is the Speed side made in the old continent

So we are going to divide it into two categories!

American Power Metal: Pantera, Lamb of God.

This are one of my favorite the structure might be extremely complex in execution but they all share something in common. SCREAMING! The singer doesnt sing usually, just screams and it sounds awesome. the music is aggressive and is a big 3 minutes solo overall. every single song (most of them anyway) are highly elaborated and the musicians hold the best records as musicians. Examples of this Would be Dime Bag Darrel, pantera's guitarrist, one of my favorite for his RAW way of playing the guitar.

European power metal: Stratovarious, Sonata Arctica

this is the top of the european, becoming famous, unlike their american counter parts, these guys SING in very high pitched voices, With the greatest of techniques to play their instruments and usually in a very speedy fashions. the songs are happy or sad, but always nice. and are catchy.

Then there is the... ugly part of the metal: all the sub genres that even I consider just Noise.

Death metal, Death Core, Noise Metal, HardCore And so forth:

They all start Extremely fast with the same note over and over again, pointless solo (even much more pointless than the trash, HECK in comparison trash metal solos are beautiful masterpieces of music) I must note that even tho the musicians are extremely good and most of them are very gifted to play at those speeds for such long periods of time. And the never ending gutural grunt of the song. here is an extract:

GRUNT GRUNT GRUNT GRUNT GRUNT GRUNT GRUNT SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAACCCCHHHH!!!!!!!! TATATATATATATATATATATTAAT (this is the drums) And the guitar IRIRIRIRIRIIRIRIRIRIRIIRIR And then the bas in a never ending POMPPOMPOMPOMPOMPOMPOM

it's just Meaningless, but then again I like some songs that are actually understandable. Here are some names of the bands (Notice the Humanity is death theme in the names alone)

Cannibal Corpse (who could imagine..)

Napam Death (nice way to die)

Morbid Angel (... Just..)

Rotting Christ (Sometimes they go and violate 3/4 of the world beliefs XD)

Carcass (Like my friend says "you are eating a steak? Cow's carcass?")

As blood Runs Black (I seriously don't know what this mean)

Obituary (but obituary strangely is somewhat good)

Cadaver (haha...)

cattle Decapitation (seriously guys, Do you really think that's nice?)

Decapitated (haha.. and more heads rolling.)

Dissection (Something ..obscure, notice the medical names of all bands...)

Deicide (these guys are somewhat the precursors of the thought that god is evil and satan is better)

Dying Fetus (And it keeps going with the Doctor Satan)

impaled (And some are religious again with the catholic church-....)

Immolation (another nice way to be burnt)

Prostitute Disfigurement (this guys have such fetish of fucking grilled women)

Six feet under (these are even original)

Vomitory (extremely "nice" and "awesome" vacational place for all the family!!)
