But that’s the thing it’s not really mainstream for sure. I was thinking if I didn’t want to do acoustic then it would almost run the risk of sounding like led zeppelin because they said it was Tolkien for them, that’s where medieval gets you in music .I don’t know if I want to be a high concept prog rock band, I kind of want to avoid that, so that’s sort of the issue. It wouldn’t really be obvious though if I were to do that I think. Led Zeppelin did a pretty good job balancing without seeming prog rock at all while going into ‘out there’ themes like that.

Another band is probably opeth they do a lot of acoustic mixed with electric and they make it work pretty well while having that sort of folk vibe that sounds almost whimsical and like it’s from a far off time.

But I don’t know I’m sort of stuck between wanting to sound really modern and maybe futuristic, with these new ideas I’ve concocted.

And another thing, Tim Burton did an interesting annotation on the swan night, he took that topic and added it to the penguin in Batman returns and they took a really interesting spin on it to where I don’t wholly remember altogether but it was super interesting. Basically the penguin sees himself like he’s this classically European tragic figure, and also much like the swan knight himself, but in reality he falls short drastically and it opens him up to all these different aspects of the world.

And that’s basically what all that reminds me of, I just can’t help it. Ugh, a lot of people would probably think my mind was poisoned by the Jews
