Easier Way to be a Rock Star

July 4th, 2011

For decades now, bands have dominated the music scene and even now that singers with gold chains and electronically modified voices seem to dominate the airwaves, there are still a lot of decent bands that really make good music. It is so sad to know that there are a lot of great talents that were not signed by record label during the previous decades.I have good news for upcoming bands though, if you want to catch attention of record companies, you may do s by going to social network for music. You may register on these sites and you need not to worry because these are for free.

This magic word is enough for the budding musicians to sign up on these sites.As compared before where you need to hunt every recording mogul for them to even hear a minute of your demo, now you just need to upload your craft online and let the social network for music connect you with your possible managers. It is somehow the hub for your songs to be spread to fans as well. Of course before you get to the top of the pillar of success, you have to go through the struggles of musicians. Having financial problems is one of those and with these; it can help you get gigs within your local area first. Not only do you get to have some earnings, you may also view this as a way for you to showcase your talent. Every exposure is still a venture for you to be nearer your goal.Once you are already known in the music community, your fans will be multiplied. Every musician will surely agree when I say that these screams and cheers will help build your morale. To be honest, being an artist is really more than the paycheck, it is being able to show to everyone what God has given you.

Showing to the world what you can do and being able to express what you feel through lyrics and notes is definitely priceless.The music community also has to thank these forms of sites because it is easier for them to look for artists to have a go see with. Instead of going to miles and miles just to check out if the artist with the demo really is for real, they can check out the reviews of other music followers and they are already set to know the market value of the band. We all know this industry is still a business.Social network for music serves a bridge between the artists and the music industry. This does not only open a lot of opportunities for them to meet big people it also enables the band to affect a person with every song they perform.

What is Doom Metal?

July 4th, 2011

Doom metal is another genre within the metal music tree of life. Like every other genre of music, everything depends on the instruments, the development and style of the music to classify it. The guitar tuning, speed and the distortion is what separates doom metal from almost every other metal music. Doom metal songs and lyrics have a lot to do with death, fear and misery. Most of these metal music bands follow this trend.

Doom Metal Vocals

Most of the doom metal vocals possess a clean feel. Some band will give out a scream here and there within their music. Some great vocalists that enhanced this characteristic are Bobby Lebling and Ozzy Osbourne. Like any other kind of music, other bands will have different ways to do things. You will discover the high pitched screams with a mix of growl vocals.

Doom metal songs are structure with different aspects of their life. One of the most popular emotions they sing about are depression, anger, death, fear and sorrow. However, there is always two sides of the story. Other bands sing about symbolism, inspiration from literature and religion, which inspires them in life.

Instruments

Like the majority of musical bands, the structure of the band is comparable.. The band consists of drums, bass guitar and electric guitars. You can even through a keyboard in the mix. To get the guitarists, bass guitarists and low distortion will tune their instruments several notes less than the standard. This method gives them a dark and unsettling sound. The bass guitar would have a heavier sounding bass to its sound. Adding more bass to the music gives it more of a dark sound. The drummer would add to this. Playing a double bass drums or double bass pedal to the mix.

Sub Genres of Doom Metal

You may also find different styles and features in the sub genres of doom metal music. Their music has the same feel, however with another twist to it. This is a list of the various sub categories of doom metal music.

Traditional Doom Metal
Epic Doom Metal
Stoner
Sludge Metal
Death Doom
Black Doom Metal

I’m going to be posting another post regarding the doom metal sub genres soon. Like any other type of music there will also be that different style in each genre. The genre will continue to produce other styles and features of doom metal later on.
