Calling all mods, rockers, ravers, psychobillies, metalheads, post-punks, shoegazers, new wavers, proto-ambient post-retro metal-industrial/goth fusion eb movers, hip-hoppers, trip-hoppers and boogie-woogie bugle boys of Company B...
For a bit of fun we are thinking of having some music reviews in a future issue of E-ON; reviews of albums that are fitting to the experience of playing EVE (whether that be mining, fighting, or immersing yourself in Matari lore), but also music that could almost be an extension of the current EVE soundtrack. What IÆm saying it has to be a bit space-y, maybe a bit tribalà Actually IÆm a bit loathed to accept hardcore nutter metal reviews, but what the hell, anything goes. So long as the review is well written, fair and/or funny and you can connect the music to your EVE experience then go for it.
Please keep your reviews between 150-175 words, rate them out of five and EVEmail them to me and maybe for the best we can sort out some signed RealX loot, or some iTunes rations, or something. Maybe we'll even do this each issue.
HereÆs an example of what might be suitable (yes, the second is made up):
EON æVoid DwellerÆ (1992) 'Void Dweller' is a slice of nostalgia for old rave heads. Few of the white glove anthems of the 80's and early 90's stand the test of time, but this album definitely does. The problem is that û as was the vogue û there are countless film samples layered in, which constantly remind you that you are back on Earth: samples from Basket Case, Dune (the classic line æThe Spice must flowÆ) and various B-movies now lost to memory. Of note is the track 'Electromagnetic Waves' a slice of breakbeat trance in which you can almost imagine some distant listening post sifting through battle transmissions, while æDawn on a New WorldÆ could easily pass itself off as a Matari funeral march, before it transforms into a squeltchy race across the galaxy. But then those Hollywood samples keep breaking the connection. Without them Void Dweller might be essential, but then it wouldnÆt be classic rave either.
ROXOR æTwo Hundred ThousandÆ (2007) Having just finished a grueling European tour EVEÆs in-house dev band have finally released their debut album, all studio cover versions of their live set list. Even without the crowd, itÆs a rousing and eclectic compilation, ranging from crowd favorites æ<happy happy> BarÆ and æKilling in the Name ofÆ to the reworking of Leonard CohenÆs æHallelujahÆ from which the album takes its name. For a bunch of people more used to pondering binary, the musicianship is quite striking and variably coherent, in some cases, even original. However, when played in tandem with EVE itself, the last thing you want to be doing is mining. Coupled with a few beers, youÆre more likely to end up taking on the nearest ship and ending up in a pod, or worse, then waking up with a hangover. So although itÆs no measure of the quality of the album itself, sitting and playing EVE and RoXoR is a bad combination. You have been warned. (There goes my job)

Edited by: Corey Grim on 09/03/2007 07:44:54 Edited by: Corey Grim on 09/03/2007 07:42:07 Too bad you havent got many responses :/ well hope this cheers you up a little
Mining Album:
Anathema: Judgement
Quite relaxing really, heavy sounds and nice deep guitarwall, this is exactly the music u want to listen 4 am when u still dont get sleep and are mining alone. Even when its not instrumental theres very atmospheric sound in every track. Theres definately that "red line" in the album and no song jumps out from it wich is good thing in this case. Vocalist sound is immersive and a bit spooky, wich reminds you that you should be watching local all the time...
Combat Album:
Racer X: Technical Difficulties
Paul Gilbert in guitar so what can you expect ? Theres lot of different hard rhythms and the tempo is hard troughout the album. Some riffes make you feel like a superhero and helps you get that last drop of adrenaline running. Alltho i allways drop "Waiting" track out of my playlist. Excelent album if you go soloing and looking for fight. minus side is that this album aint so "spacy" and lacks depth in sounds. Also Vocalist doesnt fit the music as much as i would hope.
Allaround Album:
Joe Satriani: Crystal Planet
Well well, its hard to find any better or more suitable music to listen while drifting in space doing whatever you feel like. The fact its instrumental helps a lot becouse something in me says that Ronnie James Dio aint exactly the dude im gonna hear in local matar station. Album is just too good to be true. While there are of course long guitar solos in tracks Satriani manages to keep it in control and the album aint just one lengthy guitar solo, Theres actually songs in it, can u believe that?
For Coolness factor For Heavy rock (adrenaline bumping abilities) For being good music Disapointing

I've always found that there are several things that work well with Eve.
www.bluemars.org This site has 3 streaming audio channels. Each channel has different artists and seems to have a different genre. The songs are a track or two from each artist's CD. Some of them are absolutely perfect, some of them are barely noticeable (because you couldn't care less or because it fits so well you don't realize it), some of them you want to hit the fast forward button. Overall a good choice.
Other good groups that I listen to are Astral Projection (Israeli Trance duo), Orbital, and Crystal Method. -----

Floyd. Anything by pink floyd, especially "Dark side of the moon", and "Momentary Lapse of reason".
I also like GOOD rock music... But also some newer stuff too. But mainly floyd, and since I have every album, some on vinyl - yes, I AM old - it's worth listening to.

Almost anything by Nine Inch Nails goes well with different aspects of EVE. However the latest (read: upcoming) release will probably be especially so. I've only heard 4 songs thus far, but they're all great. Just look at the track listing:
Hyperpower The Beginning Of The End Survivalism The Good Soldier Vessel Me, I'm Not Capital G My Violent Heart The Warning God Given Meet Your Master The Greater Good The Great Destoyer Another Version Of The Truth In This Twilight Zero-Sum
If that doesn't scream "fitting to the experience of playing EVE" then I don't know what does!

Pvp Music
Aborted: All the cd's. The insane deep growls and the fast drumming are just amaizing, gets the adrenaline flowing trough your body
Cryptopsy : None So Vile, this cd is almost one of the best death metal cd's in the whole world, That drummer is so fast that it blows my brains out. just check it out for yourself Linkage
Then its ofcourse the gatecamping music Arcturus : Sideshow Synphonies, This Cd is just amaizing in it's strange way,Vortexes awsome singing always gets me giggling and gets my mind from the boring big bubbles and the hope of a fleet coming trough...
Cradle oF Filth: All the old cd's before Cruelty, Altho i think cruelty and all the cd's after that are good but dont have tha same athomsphere, I reconmend Dusk and her embrace or Vempire. Danis insane vocals just get me each time.
Solo pirate music
Gorgoroth : Well all theyr cd's are awsome, every single one, But what stand's up the most for me is Under the sign of hell, it makes you feel more evil when you are killing that hauler and it just gives you a grate feeling
Twisted Sister: My favorite twisted sister cd is Stay hungry, its always good for pirating because it makes you feel so rebelious and ofcourse because dee is so sexy
Mining Music I dont mine that much anymore except when im relly desprate for isk, So i usually listen do depressive stuff to remind me that im doing a shamefull thing
Silencer: Death- Pierce me, it took me quite some time to get used to nattramns vocals they are pretty extreme and funny at first, but listen to it a few times and youl see how pain full the Screams are, He accually cut himself while singing to make the vocals more painfull. He was institusionised shortly after the cd because of the sick touring.... Myspace
Sterbend Yet another Depressing Black Metal band, From germany this time, he got the same vocal stile as nattramn in silencer but its not as extreme, very depressing and helps with the mining
Missioning Music
I basicly listen to my whole Playlist (its accually around 20gb and around 16 days but.. )
Casual stuff like, Cannibal Corpse, Emperor, Cryptopsy, Aborted, Deeds of Flesh, Dying fetus, Satanic Warmaster.... so on and so on
I could have made a Lot longer list but im just to tired
Hope it was any help to the metalheads in eve :) Biggest black and death metal fan in iceland |
