Alesana frail wings of vanity and wax zip

Begitu lagu masuk chorus, gue langsung jatuh cinta dengan lagu itu. Nggak sampai semenit, lagu itu pun sudah berada di handphone gue.

Mungkin orang-orang sekarang banyak yang nggak tau fungsi Bluetooth karena sudah tergantikan oleh MiDrop atau Share It, tapi percayalah, sebelum Bluetooth bahkan pernah ada teknologi bernama Infrared yang penggunaannya untuk bertukar file lebih menegangkan dari sekadar nonton video format. Setelah Shany pergi gue mendengarkan Congratulation, I Hate You berulang-ulang dan benar, gue semakin suka sama lagu ini.

Setelah sampai di rumah, gue pun mencari tau lebih lanjut tentang Alesana dan lagu-lagu mereka lainnya. Selain dua lagu tersebut, gue juga suka beberapa lagu lain seperti Apology, Ambrossia, Annabel, The Artist, The Murderer, dan Curse of the Virgin Canvas hingga akhirnya gue menyadari kalau ternyata gue suka seluruh lagu-lagu yang dibuat Alesana. Lee, being the screamer of the group, does a fantastic with his vocal duties, and it is inevitable to notice it on tracks such as Ambrosia and Alchemy Sounded Good at the Time.

Lee has the ability to go from the above standard screams commonly associated with the genre, and adds in Death screams that match the low end riffs of the guitars in many of the songs. Even on the minute long opener of piano and voices, Icarus, the screams and the singing both show they have an important and essential part in the band. Onto the instruments, arguably what makes this band such a driving force.

Alesana has 3 guitars, each playing different parts, but all important to the other. Milke, the singer also plays guitar while singing, and the other two guitarists, Patrick Thompson and Adam Ferguson all play a role each important to each other. The lead guitar sticks out on many of the tracks, adding a creative and faster feel to the music, something that not a lot of screamo bands are able to pull off successfully.

The lead guitar is hard to miss in many of the songs, especially Pathetic, Ordinary and the most metal song on the album, Alchemy Sounded Good at the Time. The drums on this band aren't typical from a screamo band, they play a much more important role in keeping a fast and driving tempo and every little thing from the sometimes fast double bass to every cymbal hit makes this band even more impressive with the blend of impressive drums, crunching guitars, and the harmony of vocals.

Alesana is a band that shows their emotion in their music. The lyrics in most of these songs are yes, typical emo or screamo lyrics, but they just seem to have more depth and emotion to them then say Hawthorne Heights or From First to Last.

Minggu, 22 Mei I am here to tell you a story. A story that will torture your thoughts by day and poison your dreams by night. And though I will do my best, there are no words that can be written nor brush strokes laid on canvas that can describe the stark and utter horror of the night that Annabel died.

The emptiness will haunt you. This is a nightmare, is my Annabel really gone? My eyes are stung by daylight, I find it hard to breathe. Her body teases me as the sun reveals the dawn. The smell of blood still crawls, I kiss you softly goodbye. Baby, lay in my arms and cuddle me close. Soon this will be just an awful memory Will I ever be able to sleep again?

My angel lie to me and tell me I'm dreaming.
