Within Temptation - Mother Earth

Today is Earth Day. And what a better way to celebrate it than a song dedicated to Her, our Mother? Sharon Den Adel's movements show that She, our Mother, is not always beautiful and peaceful. Sometimes an earthquake, a tsunami, or a volcano eruption shows us we all are at Her mercy.

The video is great, but unfortunately I can't post it here.

MM - Eddie Van Halen - Eruption

Welcome to a new Music Monday edition.

I'm sure a lot of you will know him. Edward Lodewijk Van Halen, more known as Eddie Van Halen, is widely known for his innovative performing. He greatly helped popularise the tapping technique for the modern audience and influenced many guitarists in his wake. Enjoy this video where guitar god Eddie Van Halen plays the best guitar solo I've ever seen.

Elvenking - The Divided Heart

This great song is included on Elvenking's album The Scythe. The whole album is about Death, and this song is not an exception. Death here is personified as a girl. Just check video, and at 4:04 you'll see that girl's shadow is the Grim Reaper, Death itself.

Metal Queen - 02 - Cristina Scabbia

Today's featured metal queen is:

Cristina Scabbia

A delicious creature coming from Italy, Cristina Adriana Chiara Scabbia is one of the two vocalists in the gothic metal band Lacuna Coil. She has a contralto vocal range.

MM - Demons & Wizards - Fiddler On The Green

Well, this is my first Music Monday, and I thought it'd be a great idea to share with all of you this beautiful ballad titled 'Fiddler On The Green' by an amazing power metal band from Germany called Demons And Wizards. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do.
