Music inspirations: A Road to Damascus (DK)

Self indulgent post incoming but I need to talk about the last time I felt this passionate about a musician/band (and yes it was over a decade ago) because I just rediscovered them and oh my gosh they are still giving me the strongest feeling of seretonin and I can sing along with almost all their songs !!! (until I stopped listening to them in 2014 since those songs I’ve only just heard now)

Let me introduce you to the danish band A Road To Damascus - a metal/rock/pop punk band I learned about when they played a local gig in my hometown - I fell in love with them from the moment I heard this one song (second below). No, actually I fell in love as soon as I saw the guitarist’s purple guitar x’D (I got to hold it afterwards :3). Since then I basically followed them around anywhere on their Danish tour, bought all their albums and merch, gifted them a piece of fanart (and got them to sign the copy for myself) and even was gifted back a sheet of chords (signed of course) so I could play their song live at an open mic event :’3 It got to a point that I was on first name basis with most of if not the entire band :’D

I’ve tried to find some of my favourite songs from each album (they don’t have a lot but it is worth checking out anyways) below :3

1) Sweetheart, 2010 (Pretty alright for first outing :3)

2) Head High, Hands Down, 2011 (aka the song that got me HOOKED)

3) The Best is Yet to Come, 2011

4) Home is Where Your Heart Was, 2014 (aka the song I got the chords to)

5) All Said and Done, 2014 (the intro sends me back so it’s a big nostalgia kick - funny when the lyrics fit with my current state more xD)

6) The Last Straw, 2019

7) Fearless, 2020

6) Sirens, 2023 (as soon I heard it, it reminded me how much I love these guys!)

There’ll be some even more selfindulgent parts under the line x’D

Here’s me with the bassist and guitarist (I’m wearing their merch which is sadly almost too worn to wear now and I ruined it by trying to make it into a croptop x’D):

Here’s me and the frontman (don’t mind me looking away x’D): 

Here I am holding up the signed copy of the fanart :3

Here’s me in their music video:

So yeah if you need something to listen to I can recommend these guys.

#did my mind just run back to artd instead of listening to icip? possibly x'D #I am warming up to the idea of listening to icip tho but I'll wait until I get there in the love spam x'D #so until then let me have my nostalgia moment :'D #oh to be a fan of a local band - I miss it :'3 #especially a smaller one where you can just gush with the artist themselves x'D #I don't expect this to get many notes but maybe somebody is in need of a new band to listen to #or want to see my past self be a fanboy x'D #(I am very tempted to redraw the art tbh and send it to the band like 'hi guys - almost a decade has past: surprise I am trans now x'D' #hahahaah) #micahs thoughts #micahs foolery #me #personal #danish music
