Godsmack Batalla De Los Concert Album Download Godsmack godsmack batalla de los concert album download Godsmack. Godsmack is a hard rock/alternative metal band from Lawrence, Massachusetts, United States which formed in 1995. They are often mis- categorized as post-grunge or nu metal. The band comprises founder, frontman and songwriter Sully Erna, guitarist Tony Rombola, bassist Robbie Merrill, and drummer Shannon Larkin. Since its formation, Godsmack has released five studio albums, one EP, four DVDs, and one greatest hits collection. The band has had three consecutive #1 albums (Faceless,IV,The Oracle) on the Billboard 200. Godsmack's fifth studio album, titled The Oracle was released on May 3, 2010. The band has also parked a ratified 18 top ten rock radio hits, including 15 songs in the Top Five, more than bands such as Linkin Park and Metallica. Godsmack are one of the most popular metal acts of the last decade in the United States, selling over 19 million records worldwide. Since its inception, Godsmack has toured on Ozzfest on more than one occasion, and have toured with many other large tours and festivals, including supporting its albums with its own arena tours. In the summer of 2009, Godsmack toured as support to M?tley Cr?e's Cr?e Fest 2 tour. In February 1995, Sully Erna decided to start a new band as the lead singer after playing the drums for more than 23 years, including over two years in the now-defunct band Strip Mind. His new band The Scam formed with Erna on vocals, Robbie Merrill on bass, local guitarist and friend Lee Richards on guitar, and Tommy Stewart on drums. The Scam quickly changed its name to Godsmack, after recording one demo. The newly formed band started playing small bars in their hometown of Boston, Mass.. Locally popular songs such as "Keep Away" and "Whatever" soon brought them to the top of the hit charts in the Boston/New England area. The band's name, according to Merrill in the Smack This! DVD, was taken from the Alice in Chains' song "God Smack". However, Erna stated in a 1999 interview that "I was making fun of somebody who had a cold sore on his lip and the next day I had one myself and somebody said, 'It's a godsmack.' The name stuck. We were aware of the Alice in Chains song but didn't really think much about it. It's a cool song and the name had meaning for us". In 1996, Tony Rombola and Joe D'Arco joined Godsmack as the guitarist and drummer, after Richards left after finding out he had a six-year-old child and Stewart left due to personal differences. In the same year the band entered the studio for the first time, recording its first CD titled "All Wound Up". The CD was recorded in just three days for $2,600. For the next two years, the band played throughout the Boston area. Eventually Godsmack's CD landed in the hands of Rocko, the night-time DJ for Boston radio station WAAF (FM). The radio station put "Keep Away" into heavy rotation and the song rose to the number one spot at the station very quickly. Newbury Comics, a New England record store chain, agreed to sell the CD on consignment. Shortly after the success of "Keep Away", Godsmack went back into the studio and recorded a single titled "Whatever", which became the new local favorite on WAAF (FM). In an interview Sully Erna stated, "we had been selling maybe 50 copies a month at the time WAAF picked up the album. All of a sudden we started moving over records a week. It was insane. Even crazier, I was doing all this from my bedroom. After years of grinding away, things finally started taking off." Alice in Chains is believed to be the primary influence to Godsmack. Many believe Godsmack obtained their name from the Alice in Chains song "God Smack" off the album Dirt. In an interview with MTV upon the death of Alice in Chains lead singer Layne Staley, Godsmack frontman Sully Erna stated that Staley "was single-handedly the guy that got me to start singing." Erna went on to later confirm that indeed "God Smack" is the inspiration for the bands name and the reason their sound sounds similar to that of Alice in Chains Other bands cited by Godsmack members as their primary influences typically include Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Rush, Black Sabbath, ? and White Zombie. More recently, Godsmack have attempted to distance themselves from the Alice in Chains comparison with Erna stating in an interview with Matt Ashare, "I've just never really heard that in our music." In that same interview, Erna offers an alternative explanation to the origin of their band name by stating, "It happened at rehearsal when our drummer came in with a big cold sore on his lip. I was making fun of him all day because we had a photo shoot coming up. And then the next day when I came in, I had a big cold sore on my lip. So my guitar player said, See, God just smacked you for making fun of him." Nevertheless, the comparison to Alice in Chains is well documented. Sully Erna's style of singing mirrors that of Layne Staley's while the overall sound of the band's first two albums sound incredibly similar to the sound of Dirt. The logo of Godsmack is similar to the sun logo of Alice in Chains. Godsmack also released an album titled "Faceless" which is similar in name to Alice in Chain's first album Facelift. The band even transcended from their heavy sound to a more mellow acoustic sound on their album "The Other Side" in the same manner Alice in Chains did in "Jar of Flies". In 2002, Godsmack received a Grammy nomination in "Best Rock Instrumental Performance" for the song "Vampires" from the album Awake. In 2004, they opened for Metallica, while headlining with Dropbox in the summer. They did acoustic shows for their newly released album The Other Side in the fall of 2004, while still opening for Metallica. In September 2004, Godsmack issued a live DVD titled "Changes" which the band recorded earlier that year. That same month, the group also released "Batalla de los Tambores", a live cut available only via online services such as Apple's iTunes Music Store, Real and Napster. They released their latest album 'The Oracle' on May 3rd, 2010. Some songs from the album "Faceless" are also in the video game soundtrack for "Prince of Persia: Warrior Within". * Sully Erna - Vocals, Lyrics, Guitar and Percussion. * Robbie Merrill - Bass and Backing Vocals * Tony Rombola - Guitars and Backing Vocals * Shannon Larkin - Drums/Percussion.

  • Kant, Mission Command, and What It Means to Take
    OPERATIONALIZING A PEOPLE-FIRST STRATEGY: KANT, MISSION COMMAND, AND WHAT IT MEANS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY IN A 21ST CENTURY MILITARY A Thesis by JON GENE THOMPSON, JR. Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Chair of Committee, Kristi Sweet Committee Members, Theodore George Marian Eide Head of Department, Theodore George May 2021 Major Subject: Philosophy Copyright 2021 Jon Gene Thompson, Jr. ABSTRACT The purpose of this thesis is to argue for the adoption of Mission Command because it stands to promote the kind of functioning proper to the aims and conditions of the increasingly tech-enabled military. It does this because there are no mission, battle, or war conditions where good judgment and responsible action are not critical to the success of the military’s endeavors. In this, there is a moral basis to the proper functioning of a good military – trust and responsibility taking. While some argue that implementing Mission Command is infeasible, I argue that Kant, in fact, provides a model of moral education that suits Mission Command’s integration quite well. I turn to Kant because he is the thinker for whom responsibility is the key concept, so his thoughts on how to cultivate it are relevant to the successful integration of Mission Command. In order to support my argument for Mission Command, I first focus the thesis on the ethical debates of autonomous weapons systems (AWS), specifically, drones. In finding the literature too narrow, I argue the ethical discussion must be recast in terms of judgment, autonomy, and responsibility in order to locate a balanced path forward for the ethical research and development of technology that privileges the centrality of the human agent.

  • Devokan Tsahno
    Devokan Tsahno NebThauDragmire When a teenage girl finds an odd looking book in the New Mexican desert, she’s transported to a strange new world... but the world is nothing next to the family that lives there. Pre-Myst, Myst, Riven. Author’s note: Trust me, this isn’t your usual Myst fanfic. This is Alternate Universe as you’ve never seen it before. When writing the outline for this story, the first thing I did was promptly take canon and chuck it out the nearest window. Cyan owns Myst and all related characters/Ages/etc. I own the character of Cecilia. “Devokan” means “hope” and “Tsahno” means “eternal”. So, the title for the story is “Eternal Hope” (In D’ni, the adjective comes after the noun). Devokan Tsahno Prologue: The Finding of the Book I watched with anticipation as the dust cloud grew closer. It was a big one this time; the biggest devil that I’ve seen all summer. I steadied myself on the rocky outcropping, gripping the tarp. I watched as the dirt devil came nearer. It was almost eight feet tall, two feet shorter than the small cliff on which I stood. This thing was powerful, too - it was ripping up the smaller plants by the roots. It was close now. I pulled the tarp into the right position. Then, after a swift count to three, I threw the tarp into the wind. It was airborne! The tarp, with the rock attached, was flying right along with the dirt devil! But it was turning away from me.

  • Tsotsi Study Guide Secondary
    INTRODUCTION It is important to remember that the novel and film version of Tsotsi are totally different from each other. The timelines differ as the film version is set in the post-apartheid era and the novel is set during the apartheid era. There are also major plot differences between the novel and film version. SETTING Tsotsi is set in an unnamed township just outside Johannesburg (possibly Sophiatown), in the 1950’s. There are references to the bus boycott and the first man-made object to land on the moon. The novel clearly describes the difficulties of living in the townships and a number of passages are critical of the actions taken by the apartheid government and of the society it created. Sophiatown Sophiatown, also known as Sof'town or Kofifi, is a suburb of Johannesburg, South Africa. Sophiatown was a legendary black cultural hub that was destroyed under apartheid, rebuilt under the name of Triomf, and in 2006 officially returned to its original name. Sophiatown was one of the oldest black areas in Johannesburg and its destruction represents some of the excesses of South Africa under apartheid. Despite the violence and poverty, it was the epicentre of politics, jazz and blues during the 1940s and 1950s. It produced some of South Africa's most famous writers, musicians, politicians and artists. Sophiatown was originally part of the Waterfall farm. Over time it included the neighbouring areas of Martindale and Newclare. It was purchased by a speculator, Hermann Tobiansky, in 1897. The township was named after Tobiansky's wife, Sophia, and some of the streets were named after his children Toby, Gerty, Bertha and Victoria.

Translated from the " Litterarisches Echo,"" August 15, 1911 STRINDBERG'S WORKS (By I. E. PoRiTZKY, Berlin) The republication of The Confession of a Fool represents the last link in the chain of Strindberg's autobiographical novels. A German version of the book was published as far back as 1893, but it was mutilated, abbreviated, corrupted, and falsified to such an extent that the attorney-general, misled by the revolting language, blamed the author for the misdeeds of the translator and prohibited the sale of the book. This was a splendid advertisement for this profound work, but there were many who would have rejoiced if the translation had been completely ignored. It distorted Strindberg's character and was the cause of many prejudices which exist to this day. Schering's new translation is an attempt to make reparation for this crime. "It is impossible," he says, "that any attorney-general can now doubt the high morality of this book." Strindberg himself has called it a terrible book, and has regretted that he ever wrote it.

  • The Myth of Suicide 5
    5 The Myth of Suicide Volitional Independence and Problematized Control in the First Century C.E. Estragon: Let’s hang ourselves immediately! Vladimir: From a bough? (They go towards the tree.) I wouldn’t trust it. Estragon: We can always try. Vladimir: Go ahead. Estragon: After you. Vladimir: No, you first. Estragon: Why me? —samuel beckett, Waiting for Godot “I’ll neck myself, and you’ll lose your job.” —tatz (1997) The presence of an affective disorder, especially manic-depressive illness, is the single most important risk factor for actual completed suicide. —goodwin and jamison (1990, 7) People do not kill themselves because they are depressed or lovesick or bored or in pain—that is, not unless they are characters in fiction. They kill them- selves because they are ill, with manic depression, for example, or schizo- phrenia. Their deaths are usually swift, private, and accomplished without much warning. People also kill themselves when they are under the influence of drugs or alcohol. But that is a different matter. Judgment then has been ir- reparably impaired. People who are depressed, lovesick, bored, or in pain often attempt to kill themselves.1 The lack of success and the often quite public nature of their death attempts point to a motive that has little to do with an attempt to gain 161 162 Melancholy, Love, and Time relief from pain. Such attempts speak to an implied audience. The suicide at- tempt in such cases represents a dialogue with friends, family, associates. The suicide attempt enacts a message for the audience that is not a plea for help or understanding.
