The blog has over 2100 hits now coming in from all over the world. The best day saw some 260 hits. If there is anything cool or out of the ordinary about Tull, let me know. Most any content is cool.

Great cover by Turisas.  A little info from wikipedia : Stand Up and Fight is the third album by the Finnish symphonic / folk metal band Turisas,
released worldwide on February 23, 2011 through Century Media as a single disc jewelcase and two disc digibook.
The album continues to develop the themes started by The Varangian Way, but it is not wholly a sequel.
According to Nygård, the lyrics, (dealing in part with the 11th century Byzantine Empire)
have a universal appeal and are applicable to the modern world.
Musically, the band incorporated more progressive elements, as well as influences
from such genres as the 1980s stadium rock.
For the first time, real string and horn sections were used to record the album, adding to the dynamic sound.

I knew of that cover because of a guy at work who regularly listens to Turisas and several other bands of that genre (he calls it 'Viking Metal'). I don't mind when he plays it, it's all good fun stuff, and besides, he tolerates my huge prog epics. Anyway, when this song came on I stopped what I was doing and said "That's TULL! They're doing Tull!" - he had no idea it wasn't an original tune. |
