I don't want them to release an album with instruments! The technical aspects, quality, superb harmonies, and uniqueness of their concept is absolutely AMAZING! I have yet to come across a song that I dislike. Completely breathtaking!
amazing group, such a unique idea, great tunes, awesome covers... they just need a better frontman. don't get me wrong, in studio sly sounds awesome.... live however, he's almost tone deaf... imo a band has to be able to deliver the same quality on a stage as in a recording booth or they'll wash out like so many bands before.
before you judge them too much... have you listened to any of the following:
Lost Forever
Fear of the Dark
The Mission
Speed of Light
???????
those are my favorite VC songs... If you haven't given any of them a shot, then i'd suggest it... if you have and still don't like it that much then eh... to each his own.
@RobEDL2010 ok yes, they are great, but my opinion is that they would be grater if they used and other instruments than drams! i'm only saying that they have a big talent and by doing metal acapella are not enough recognized.again thats my opinios.
@berdgar I'm quite sure if enough people ask Van Canto very nicely they may release a CD with the songs done with instruments, As they play all their songs with instruments 1st, I'm guessing it makes it easier for them to know what sound they gonna use for the A'Capella stuff
That's like telling slash that or claypool that they would be better if they dropped their guitar or bass and picked up some other more popular instrument or type of music because it might appeal to more people.
They can probably play their instruments well, and maybe they can incorporate it to an extent, but they ARE the ONLY A cappela metal band I know. And they do things with their voices no one else has.
It's bands like Van Canto that makes you really want to grab all of your friends for a road trip. Just blast this and have everyone imitate one of the singers. If there's five of you, then hells yeah...leave Bastian to the car's sound, and sing your hearts out :D
Even though the lyrics are a bit ropey, this is just a great song. These lot have really grown on me. I wasn't sure to start with, but it's definitely an acquired taste. :3
Me encanta. Sin duda algo diferente dentro del mundo del heavy. Ellos fueron arriesgados y decidieron no hacer lo de siempre ya solo por eso merecen ser escuchados! =)
In other words: Being good at something that you don't have an in-born talent in is something that you have earned. While being talented is un-earned LUCK, dont'cha think? :P
@JonasDenVise No, actually, I don't agree. I concede that it may be easier for someone to excel at something they have a natural aptitude for; however, that fact doesn't make their accomplishment any less worthy.
the dum dum dum is the whole band twat. and if you hate them so much stop commenting on them. also you called the whole band retards and asked if they had another album. EPIC FAIL
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
You got pissed off and read only half the post, horsefart. I asked if they had an album with real instuments, not just any album.
I get why you're angry. I get the same when some nu-metal retard complains at my favourite songs, but at least I gave my reason for the dislike of this.
i actually cant see why people think tehir covers are shit?! what is wrong with these people i saw one comment a battery video that said "my down-syndrome child could do better" btw im not being negative, that comment is real!!
Metal here and metal there, this is simply a Capella with a drummer. Nothing more, nothing less. This takes real talent, anybody who isn't impressed knows nothing about music.
lol they may be true but cannot do any good song, yeah maybe fear of the dark is a nice one, but serieusly, metal evolves into core. not into a bunch of gay guys singing guitar riffs XD LOL
Actually, metalcore is a fusion genre between punk and metal, so it evolved from both. I can't ready Enfirnity's comment thanks to thumbs-downing, so sorry if my comment was pointless.
@Enfirnity Speed metal does not equal ALL metal, kid. (I don't care what your age is, your entire comment is childish.) Dragonforce are pretentious to the max. Just because you think metal = HEAVY HEAVY GEETARZ doesn't make it true. Vocals are the core of many big metal bands, in fact pretty much all the biggest ones have distinctive vocals.
But at the same time, why try to pigeonhole it? If you don't like it, whatever. The closest genre is metal, but it IS obviously going to be different!
hehe so nice i normally don't listen to metal but this is nice... hmm i still feel evil i thought i would feel evil on a demonic level. i still feel evil on a tormenting levil. but still very nice
This isn't talent, THIS IS VAN CANTO!
