Not necessarily true, here's an example of Diamond Dave being just a funny guy....

Sorry for my lack of clarity. I’d never tell any musician what they ought to play! I simply don’t relate to the aggression or focus on psychologically troubled states. I don’t like the way such music makes me feel physically or psychologically but clearly, this is highly subjective. I’m a Jazz fan and can only tolerate so much dissonance. On the other hand, I don’t care for music that is too far to the other side of the spectrum. A certain amount of dissonance/tension can be enlivening. Too much can be assaultive. I like Richie Kotzen because he has incredible chops (he began as a shredder) and can definitely rock hard but is at the same time, very soulful and melodic. |
@stuartk - Oh, I know you wouldn't, Stuart. I was just curious as to what themes you prefer for hard rock and metal, but now I see that this isn't really your preferred genre anyway. It's all good! Enjoy your week.... |

Essentially reads me to me as a anti-war message, based around true life events from the 1854 Crimean war.....an anti-war message which is much needed in the current world of warlords who are about to nuke the world soon, i suppose.
(can’t quite sing flower gardens, kissing roses or how a gal broke yer heart into a million different pieces to this one....i suppose)
