Thursday, March 7: Impellitteri, "Goodnight and Goodbye" [ENCORE]

The Today’s Metal Tune tumblr posted its first song March 5, 2014.  Amazingly, 10 YEARS LATER we are still here and going strong.  A huge THANK YOU to everyone that has followed, liked, reblogged and commented over the past 10 years, this tumblr has been a passion project that took on a life of its own and far exceeded humble expectations, and that is all because so many have listened and gotten in on the fun.  To celebrate the past decade, we are revisiting some favorites from the early years.  Stay Metal everyone, there’s much more still to come…

Stand in Line saw Graham Bonnet team up with his fifth guitar hero and mixed late ‘80s LA hair metal with ridiculous shredding and Bonnet’s incomparable vocals and unique POV.  “Goodnight and Goodbye” fit in well with the scene at the time, while also offering commentary on the emptiness of that same scene.  Bonnet was an interesting lyricist, offering a specificity that made his words feel lived-in, and the words here read as celebratory at first, but by the end felt rather lonely, especially when paired with Bonnet’s delivery.  Meanwhile, Chris Impellitteri claimed he tried to play like Ritchie Blackmore on this album in order to give it a more Rainbow-like feel and fit Bonnet’s voice better, but he really sounded like an even more coked-out Yngwie Malmsteen.  Still, “Goodnight and Goodbye” and much of Stand in Line rocked out convincingly, even if Chris Impellitteri’s shredding frequently crossed over into absurdity.  It was the sound of a time and place long gone, and a scene that’s looked back on with both derision and fondness.

DRAGON AGE ORIGINS

[natade-art]

got hit by the sudden realization that i never posted my piece for the moments between zine even though we got our copies in, what, september? looking at it now there's things i'd do differently but that's what makes zine pieces such a good learning experience ^^

One of the most underrated scenes from AFTG is in TRK when Neil tells Andrew “I hope she was worth it” talking about Cass and Andrew turns and says “Neil, you are far too heavy to tread ice this thin”.

even if I came to love humanity in the end, there’s no proof I was ever here, right?

Scary Sunset.

I'm concepting things way outta order in this story, but I'm sure you can piece things together. Context is for a storybeat where, after defeating and capturing Adagio (thus having all three sirens in her possession), Sunset enacts her revenge plot to release the sirens on Canterlot as Thea discovers she's been manipulated. In a confrontation, the two scuffle and fight over the siren orbs while Sunset struggles with her conflicting wants and emotions.

i had a dream last night that i organized a tumblr meetup and we all agreed to go to a local bar together. so i go to the bar but it was a really busy night and i didn't want to ask every stranger "are u here for tumblr reasons" bc that's embarrassing and i'm shy. so i just got a drink and felt very awkward & hoped someone would approach me. tried to look inviting and like i was from tumblr but not like i was "from tumblr". when i left some girl stopped me to ask if i was there for the meetup but i was too shy and asked what's tumblr?

in the dream i went home to make a post about how nobody showed up to the tumblr meetup but my entire dash was people saying they'd gone to the bar but were too fucking shy to admit to being on tumblr so we'd all just had a drink and gone home

i have lots of flaws but i do at least take a fair amount of comfort knowing that, if i were a customer NPC in a fast food/retail management game, i would be one of the chill early-level ones that can wait a super long time before they start getting impatient, and you breathe a sigh of a relief when you see them show up in a harder level
