Eddie Vedder - Society (with Johnny Depp)

It's been a while since the last post, uh? I didn't post anything in this past days because I didn't have any time for the blog. I was really occupied with college related stuff, and partying hard x)

So, I was listening to an Eddie Vedder's solo album, which is the official soundtrack of the movie Into the Wild, and I thought of putting a song from the album here. It's not exactly my favorite song from the album, but I find this live performance very curious and interesting, because Eddie shares the stage with Johnny Depp (didn't know he plays guitar)!

I highly recommend the album, since it's a very good work by Eddie Vedder and, although this blog is about music, I also recommend the movie Into the Wild.

The xx - Intro (Cover)

Today i decided to post a cover i did, almost a year ago.

The song is really simple and easy to play, but i decided to cover it, even if it's not that challenging...
I hope you like it! :)

Since this blog is about music, I've been wondering about what's your favorite music genre, or your favorite band...

That is a good thing for me to know, so I can post stuff you like, in order to make you enjoy my blog. :D

Sigur Rós – Popplagið

• Sigur Rós myspace;
• Heima, a documentary by Sigur Rós;

In the past weeks I've been listening a lot of post-rock, mainly because I've been through a lot of stress lately - exams, lol. From my music knowledge I can say that, probably, Sigur Rós is the most well known band from this genre, so today i decided to post a song from them.



This song is so intense it can make me travel through the deepest places of my mind, while it gives me inner peace and chills me out. When I show this song to people I know, they always whine about the singer, because in the beginning of the song he keeps repeating the same thing over and over... I find it relaxing, actually... Post-rock songs are supposed to be progressive, and should gradually increase the feeling, until they reach the 'peak', to finish epically. It's not just a bunch of chords and fills... If you listen to the song, grab your headphones or listen it loud. I guarantee that the experience should be a lot better. :)

PS: This live performance is from a documentary of the band. It is named 'Heima'. I recommend you to watch it.
