Just thought I'd introduce you to another band, presuming you've never heard of them. They are called Dry The River. I first heard their song 'New Ceremony' early in 2012, and since then have been hooked. They only have two albums, firstly 'Shallow Bed' and secondly 'Shallow Bed (Acoustic)'. Same songs, whole different album. I loved, and still have a lot of love for them and even labelled the Shallow Bed album my album of 2012. That's saying something when you think Mumford & Sons and The Killers brought out new albums, and they're by far up hovering around the top of my favorite bands. I'm not saying those albums were bad, Babel by Mumford was incredible, just Dry The River have something about them. Something that keeps you gripped, and that was evident when I saw them live. One of the calmest yet best gigs I've ever been to.
Anyway enough babbling, and on to the song. I highly recommend you give their album a listen and I'm sure that 9/10 of you will not be disappointed.
This is New Ceremony.
Not really had and feelings, moods or thoughts to post about today other than the fact 'Mad Dogs' is a very good tv series, and well worth watching. I've been listening to piano music for the majority of the day, however whilst doing my weights this song came on and I can't get enough of it. It's from the same band I posted yesterday, Imagine Dragons, but I felt it too good not to share with you. It is called Bleeding Out.
And just to fit in with my calm day full of piano, here's the same song piano-ised.
So I've been in a bit of a dark place over the last week. Mainly caused by too many thoughts in to my relationship, what I want from it and what I want in the future.
Luckily I know to control myself and know these phases come in patches, so I just had to ride it out.
What works for me however is the influence of music on my mindset. The lyrics and style of a piece of music, as well as friends to talk to, is what gets me through and I basically want to share with you my band of choice that I hope can help anyone else who has similar feelings about life; and relationships in particular.
The band is 'Imagine Dragons' and my song of choice for you is 'On Top of the World'. Quality band that I've just discovered and such an uplifting track.
I hope this can help at least one other person, and remember you are always in control.
