Some string hints from the band people

A little research with some Estonian bands like Encased Sun and Shelton Son and with some others showed that almost everyone has their own favorite guitar strings. The top five have to be: GHS (Boomer, Gyro), Ernie Ball (Beefy Slinky), Dean Markley, Addario, McWill. GHS has to be the best right now for the electric guitar. And if the guitar has GHS Boomer strings, you can be sure that the melodic heavy metal from the speaker will melt your ears. Ernie Ball also has the quality to compare with GHS, but sounds a lot better on Gipson guitars, no one can explain it, but with lots of practice and good hearing anyone can hear the differents. A good way to make your acoustic guitar sound a lot better, is to go to the music shop and buy Dean Markley strings. If to be a little bit cheaper and wanting almost the same sound, La Bella will to the work.
Notice: These good guitar strings will lose their quality with in a few months and the string pack costs 150-350 Estonian money.

Metsatöll - crazy folk guys or real music makers?

Metsatöll started playing at the end of the 1990-s. Metsatöll includes heavy metal with small influences from ancient Estonian folklore. The music of Metsatöll has intertwined more and more with old Estonian rune-singing and traditional melodies. At first the band did not have many fans. Many thought that the band is a media joke. Time went on and people started to like the different sound and the weird image. In the beginning of 2004 the drummer Factor dedicated himself completely to science and he was replaced by another drummer Atso. Metsatöll has re-recorded all old material and released a brand new CD. On 11.th of November at seven o clock there will be “The Big Film” taking and the presentation of a new album “Terast mis hangund me hinge” in Rock Café. So if you want to get your pretty face on the film, get yourself in the club on 11.th of November.

What about free time?

Free time- yes it is the time when people like to spend time doing something what they really like. Hobbies are different, one guy likes to be home, watch TV in bed and drink beer, other guy likes to plant vegetables at the country side. When we watch VH1 and see what rockstaars do on their free time-partying, drinking, having trobles with their love life, it does not differ so much from Estonian rockstars free time. Surely they drink, smoke and make lots of fun orgies, but there is this other differents.The only main differents may be the wealth. Lots of Estonian band people have work also after school or after music making. It is well known and quite a bitty that Estonian rockbands have to work harder to get the album out. But despite all these things, they still have the mood to make music what lots and lots of young Estonians admire.

29.10.05 Depeche Mode Party:Elegant Machinery

Today at Club Hollywood is the 7`th Depeche Mode party. The party is for presenting the new Depeche Mode album "Playing the Angel". It is become like a tradition for Hollywood to make an awesome party with good Depeche Mode music and with other new bands. Quest artist from Swede Elegant Machinery will kick the place even more parting. I think for 125 Kr. To spend an evening today at Club Hollywood will be the perfect choice. The success of Elegant Machinery began at the 80`s. Depeche Mode was the main influence to this band.Everyone who will join the party can win many different prices, like the new album and also tickets to the contsert on 16. of March in Saku Suurhall. Better go, it is much harder to read about it after.

Little story for beginning

As we all know and also lots of people from other countries that Estonians are a little bit different from other people- with their characteristics and being.
That goes to Estonian rock people also. I will try to tell about them with less criticism and try finally bringing out the good and interesting about them.
Free time for these rock machines is very important. The more free time, the more ideas and good stuff we hear on Estonian radio. When we but away such clubs like Hollywood and other fancy places and look what these rock bands have to offer we can find lots of interesting and cool parties. I will write also about these opportunities.When we go to the music stores we can see prices what will make our eyes bigger and wet as they are. Luckily many people have lots of used equipment with good quality and with good prices. Good equipment with good prices will be brought out other time.
