You're gonna have to hook me up with some of that Thai music though. I've been meaning to find out who the artists are... www.wnyu.org when they have their servertron dj-bot running plays a lot of it. |

The Sublime Frequencies Thai records (Molam: Thai Country Groove from Isan Volumes 1 and 2 and Thai Pop Spectacular) are also awesome, as is the Siamese Temple Ball album. |

| _______________________________________ [May 28,2008 8:31am - y_ddraig_goch ""] bennyhillifier I think I have a FTW here, this is Yezidi music. brief history of the Yezidi people: Basic teachings and Beliefs of Yezidism: Yezidi beliefs are a complicated mixture of Islamic and Zoroastrian beliefs, with Gnostic, Jewish, and Shamanistic elements. Worship centers around Angels (Malek is from the Arabic word for 'angel'), the most important of which is named Melek Taus, or the "Peacock Angel," also known as Lucifer. Lucifer plays a different role in Yezidism, where he is considered the chief Archangel, and the creator of the material world. In Yezidi belief, Lucifer is not a fallen angel, nor Satan, nor the enemy of God. In Yezidi cosmology, the Universal Spirit (the Supreme, unknowable deity) created a pearl, which became shattered after a period of forty thousand years. Melek, or Lucifer, used the remains of the pearl to create the material world. After this creation, the Spirit created the remaining Angels. Yezidi theology claims that Lucifer was forgiven for his transgressions, and those who revere him are the spiritual elect of humanity. They are forbidden from referring to him as Satan. That's right, they worship Satan! but not in his form as evil devil dude. They've been persecuted by Muslims, Christians and Jews for this worship of a good lucifer. |

I was spinning that clint eastwood song today actually clint eastwood was off the first cd. i was talking about the second one. the first one has more good songs on it but i think some of the songs off demon days are better than any on the first cd. i rock a mean clint eastwood at karaoke, though. won me $50 one time. :shocked: |
| ______________________________________ [May 28,2008 12:05pm - sacreligion ""] that yezidi stuff sounds like a ba'al cult with christian influences all those near-eastern philosophies all pretty much say the same thing but call it a different name. for me, it's the annunaki or nothing |
