This is sick, check it out!
« on: October 01, 2011, 07:23:55 AM »
edit: Not really sick, but I had to change the title cause I havent even got 1 damn view on the post.. wtf!! :) Thanks for looking ;)

Hi,

I recently started listening to Jonny Lang, and I quite enjoy his music. I like this kind of bluesy stuff.

However, what promted me to start this thread is to get some help.. See, I was listening to a song of his called "Turn Around", quite good actually but besides the point, and for quite a time I was almost certain I was listening to Pain of Salvation! I actually had to check that I was still playing a Jonny Lang album. And I was.

Someone care to listen to it, and if youīre a PoS fan, maybe you could explain to me why this popped into my head? :-) 

Btw, specifically, I was listening to a live album called "Live at the Ryman". Actually, listen to the whole album if your a PoS fan and like the Road Salt stuff.. cause when I think about it (note, I havent really listened extensively to PoS or RS for a long time), a lot of the music reminds me a bit of that!

Try posting a link to some material.  I never heard of Jonny Lang, so I certainly don't have any of his albums.

I'm assuming the same could be said for the bulk of the forum.

Orion....that's the one with a bunch of power chords and boringly harsh vocals, isn't it?

Hehe, I figured most people are aware of the various possibilities that exist to find and listen to music if they want  :angel: But, since you insist, heres a link to grooveshark:

People are aware, but going all the way to the top of my browser and opening a new tab is a totally arduous task. If it ain't hyperlinked it's no deal.

Of course, I was just being a bit of an arse.. I know people are lazy when it comes to stuff like that, Iīm the same mostly   ;)

Btw, now you have no excuse!  :biggrin:

Disregard that stuff about Road Salt ... I think I was way off. But anyhow, the song still reminds me of something from PoS, but I just canīt figure out which song. So that is my main agenda with this thread :P Tried to listen through some of the PoS discography but I couldnīt find it. Would be glad if someone could check it out :) Peace out.

Pretty sweet song, actually.  Not my usual kind of thing, but I really dug it.

I can see the Road Salt similarities, mostly in the vocals; the guy has a similar vocal style to Daniel's in the RS albums.  As far as specific songs, I guess it sounds sort of like a cross between Tell Me You Don't Know and Of Dust.  Maybe a bit of Darkness of Mine in there.  I think.
