This is what you see when you listen to Tarantula A.D. - Book of Sand. A record without voices, for the most part. Electric violins, violently loud guitars, let's play classical bits, and how about some metal riffs, and oh! let's throw in a quiet interlude with a harp and a saw but end it by hammering out some more metal riffs? yeah I like that.
i can only think of a post world war I europe, young soldiers returning home, bored, disillusioned and deciding to trek across the continent to the sands of egypt or the mountains of spain in search of whatever.
and meeting a gorgeous, but dangerous woman along the way - the song "Sealake" is my strongest recommendation for download. It is absolutely beautiful.
Go here:
Preistbird (Ex-Tarantula A.D.) Myspace.
The band changed their name to Priest Bird for unknown reasons. And by 'unknown reasons' I mean that I was too lazy to look it up. It doesn't matter. Book of Sand is under their previous (and cooler) name.
oh, and in my version of the film the soldiers never find what it was they were looking for. no, they end up losing all their money. shooting their best friend in a parisian hotel. committing suicide by jumping under a train.
Maybe you will have a happier ending.
