[Video] Phoenix: "Lisztomania" (PS22 Elementary School Choir)
Author: admin // Category: News“Lisztomania” has been involved in some cool things since Phoenix released it, first there was the great dancing video done on the rooftops of Brooklyn and now a slew of 5th graders from a New York City public school contribute their own rendition. Thanks to a tweet from Bryant of Part-Time Music, I spent the duration of “Lisztomania” watching some soulful students from PS22 rock out the tune with great facial and hand expressions to boot! Talented kids and a passionate teacher can sure put one big smile on your face.
Yours truly has had a very busy weekend and is just now getting around to posting this video of Kingsbury Manx from their show at Slim’s on Friday. Sad to say, this was my first time ever seeing the band, and I’m glad I got a chance to catch part of the show. This video is of their first song, “Indian Isle”. Other songs from the show have already made their way onto Youtube, and apparently some other folks at the show were shooting a documentary, so be on the lookout for that.

Normally signs of orchestration on a metal album are like warning signs to me. So when I saw that France’s Qantice had a full-time violin player and the albums also included flute, oboe and other instruments I was skeptical. Not that I am against have a diverse sound, but to me having too orchestration can cut into the heaviness of the overall sound. In this instance my fears were quickly pushed away once I actually started the album. The band’s Myspace page refers to their music as “movie metal” as they seem to love soundtrack music as well as metal. The overriding sound here is European style power metal that relies heavily on soaring melodies that dominate most of the songs. The quality of the musicianship is high and consistent. The sound does manage to add a degree of texture that other bands of this style don’t always have. The orchestration is smooth and is designed to fit in with the spirit and style of the metal parts. There are a few occasions where it sounds like the metal parts are being swallowed by the other instruments. That’s a production issue that could easily be fixed on the next go around. Lead singer Vince has a fair amount of range, but gets a little out of tune on some of the highest notes. Still that’s just a minor complaint. All in all this was a fairly unique sound and a fine effort. I was half expecting a lot of Floris and little substance, but instead Qantice delivered an intriguing album.
