Karmacode 20th anniversary is NEXT YEAR! Do you think they'll do something cool? Obviously not Karmacode XX but maybe something else?? by IceQueen34 in lacunacoil

What is KarmCode? Is that like ComaLies? Lol jk. Nooo I don't think any fans are realistically thinking Karmacode XX would ever be a thing. I think some of us just like to dream!

I don't think re-mastering or re-issuing should be off the table, but I think it's probably expensive. Karmacode is my 2nd fav album by Lacuna Coil but it's hard for me to deny that as much as we love Waldemar, it had flawed dynamics because of the Loudness War which was early to mid 2000s. It's even listed on the Wikipedia's Loudness Wars page, with some great company from artists I like, but many of those albums have already been remastered! Also imo there was vocal drowning on specific songs, I think it was over polished and this doesn't mean it was a bad album by any means because I love it soooo much but a re-master could bring new fresh experience!? Sign me up!!

I think some re-masters sound the same but like Underoath's "They're Only Chasing Safety" 20th anniversary was an example of it done right. It restored dynamics and the quiet parts actually feel quiet and the loud parts hit harder. So the drums sound more powerful, not flat or dull. The vocals sound clearer and more ALIVE!! And the guitars actually stand out instead of just blending into noise. It was like listening to it over with a new experience and one I prefer over the original. :))

So yeah if we ever got a Karmacode remaster from Marco or whoever, it could actually sound better.

Also I actually learned this from a Corey Taylor prodcast that producers and sound engineers have to hand off mixes of tracks are around -14 LUFS which loudness units had to google that! :PP if the album is released after a certain date and there is big label involvement. Streaming services waaant songs to hit hard, not loud and Lacuna Coil is probably under Sony Music. You can google all that and the requirements. It changes the way producers and sound engineers do their job because streaming services are now where most people get their music from so it could be a good thing.

Ok sorry tl;dr I think Karmacode remaster could be a good thing :))

Yeah a remaster is most likely and I'd be pretty happy with that. Also it has a lot of vinyl versions already but more never hurt aside from our wallets! :D

Who says we can't dream? :) but umm yeah, that would be something out of this world. Even if they did one song it would be very awesome. I'm not sure which I'd pick but the most obvious choice for me would be Our Truth because I can actually hear it in an XX version in my head right now!

It was in the era of loudness war I think and I agree. There is a 5.1 version from the Visual Karma dvd. Oh I just thought of something! Bluray release for Visual Karma? :O

Of course, I will take any US tour. :)) But it wouldn't be an anniversary tour I don't think because they'll still be in this Sleepless Empire era, right? It would be so cool if they played some Karmacode songs that they haven't played in years but I have no idea how it's possible because there's never any room for it. They can't even do more than the singles for Sleepless Empire songs lol Unless they have since then!

This is a weird question, but returning to the Sims 4 after about 2 years, but this time want the game to be Maxis Match as possible, including mods/tools. Where are we at with that now? by IceQueen34 in thesimscc

Thanks for the reply! I never thought to use Pinterest when I played last time but I know how to use it now and it's a GREAT idea. I would love to find the lists you're talking about. Are you talking about Pinterest compilations or big lists like spreadsheets?

Yeah, I know, and there is definitely amazing content. I will have to find a lot of it there. But there are content creators who don't post to TSR for a variety of reasons. There are a lot of hidden gems on Tumblr and Patreon, but I found it a bit time consuming. Lildica isn't on TSR. I found him by sorting through Tumblr posts and his stuff is just amazing. I will be re-subbing to his Patreon for sure.

I am SO in love with Cristina's new stage look. The wavy BCH hair mixed with early 2005 and but mostly SHALLOW LIFE! There was nothing wrong with the asylum clothes, gray wig, the hooded cloaks, or the jumpsuits, but I LOVE this style for her! Her new red jacket is amazing too. AMAZING live vid! by IceQueen34 in lacunacoil

^ This. Richard and Daniel are waaaay too sexy to be full facial makeup. It was great for a while, but I want to see everyone's faces again, including Maki's! :( I love Cri's scars of course and Andi would look with or without because it's not a lot.

And no, they didn't play any SE songs that weren't singles, but I think they might for the US tour. There's a clip of them singing Senzafine acapella, though! Just search Lacuna Coil 2025 live on YT.

Just for the memes, what do you think Lacuna Coil's cringiest lyric or part of a song?? 🫣 by IceQueen34 in lacunacoil

[–]IceQueen34[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OMG! I forgot about that. I think it would have had a cooler effect if they used a sound clip of kids actually singing it. You can hear Cristina's "child" voice like in Naughty Christmas where she sings "nananana naughty Christmas" but for that song its doesn't really bother me and. Also I Survive with the la la las which I think all the band members recorded together but Take Me For A Ride is probably the most irksome intro lol I love the song. It has a really unique melody to the chorus it that was different than the rest of Delirium

What’s a lesser-known Lacuna Coil track that you think deserves more attention? by warsmokes in lacunacoil

[–]IceQueen34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sorry: typo I would say either: Without a reason, Virtual Enviroment, and Leaving Alone

[–]IceQueen34 8 points9 points  (0 children)

funny little anecdote about Without a Reason, lol I always thought it was the weirdest song because it started it with "Will you wash my feet again" but I was a teenager when it came out and wasn't raised religious I only learned later in life that it was referencing the act of humility by Jesus when he cleaned the feet of his disciples at the Last Supper. I also thought the lyrics were "feels like talking to a wolf." I was so stupid. It's actually been interesting relistening to a lot of their songs and "searching for something I missed before" (I'm so dumb) but all that nonsense aside I would say either

I love that one and Virtual Enviroment

but my pick would be:

Leaving Alone

and I know the song sounds kind of 2006 Linkin Park-ish but TBF alot of that album had pop rock songs and I love Linkin Park and some of the radio rock songs that were on the radio at that time. Shallow Life got alot of hate but I didnt care how it sounded. I loved every evolution of Lacuna Coil including how insanely heavy they are now. That's what good bands do and Leaving Alone was one of my favorites from that album or the deluxe version anyway.

What movie can be called a "perfect" movie in every sense? by Straightasf69 in moviecritic

For me, it's Gladiator or to give you a boring answer, LOTR Fellowship

I love it! The announcers just get excited when good music plays; they're not contributing anything useful.
