Steven Wilson's To the Bone album. The 23rd album released in 2017 that I have listened to.
This guy has released songs so far in hype of this album that ranged from like NIN-influenced stuff to prog rock to ballads to ABBA-influences so this album is definitely going to be very polarized among those that listens to it.
Well, I've done this for the last few concerts I've been to and I guess I'll go ahead and do it for this one. I shall go ahead and listen to all the discography (or at least, as much of the discography) of all of the bands from the upcoming Halestorm show that I'm heading to. Let's start with this band.
New Years Day's My Dear album. They described their music as Hauntedmansioncore, a genre categorized by eerie haunted mansion sounds mixed with hard rock music. I also looked at their debut album and apparently they are pop punk, pop rock, and emo. Oh dear....... Thank goodness, I'm getting this out of the way before getting to the Starset and Halestorm stuff.
Edit: All right, screw it. Let's get to the next New Years Day album. A six year wait in between. I read their label went bankrupt and they hit some sort of snafu that is the cons of the music industry and naturally, only the female lead singer is the only original member left of the band.
Well, might as well get the third album out of the way and then I can finally get to listening to Starset.
New Years Day's Malevolence album.
Honestly, I apologize for saying this, but I think this band keeps getting worst in worst in sound as the years go by. Maybe they may wow me at the show and I can look back and say I was wrong. I wouldn't mind that.
Edit: I take that back. The middle of the album is starting to pick up.
So I heard this song because it was played as an intro to a golf game that I saw Cryaotic play on Youtube and edit on Twitch. It's pretty darn catchy and cheery.
Edit: Screw it, I'm listening to an album from them.
I do not know, but I do know that Owl City is that band that does that Firefly song. I heard that song one time during a music course in college. I liked it and have it in my non-hard rock playlist on Spotify. It also helps that a lot of Twitch streamers I watch know that song as well.
I got to start diving into their two albums before seeing them at the Halestorm show. There's a good amount of stuff there and probably some that I have missed when I first listened to them.
