    The Hold Steady

    As I've never understood the whole prettyboy faux biker look employed by latter day hard rock bands.:confused:

    The Hold Steady

    On 2006's Boys and Girls in America... Finn puts aside the linear narrative for a minute and employs a more big-picture approach, allowing listeners to fill details of their own lives into the songs rather than be required to commit fully to those of his characters. These stand alone story songs...

    The Hold Steady

    The Second album, Separation Sunday, tells the story of Holly (also known as Halleluiah), a sometimes addict, sometimes prostitute, sometimes born again Christian/Catholic, and her fall from grace, redemption and eventual disillusionment with that redemption. Finn's heavy use of religious...

    The Hold Steady

    OK, that's what I thought, but I wanted to make sure it wasn't Sex Pistols or Silversun Pickups.:heheh: Finn's lyrics are loaded with metaphores, the more you listen, the more unfolds, but I agree on first listen it sounds like some hipster nonsense.:pimp:

    What exactly is a zoobie thumper? And who do you mean by SP Soot?

    The Hold Steady

    From the ashes of 90's Minneapolis indie legends Lifter Puller, singer Craig Finn and bassist turned guitarist Tad Kubler went to Brooklyn to form The Hold Steady. Reportedly they started planning the band after watching The Last Waltz and lamenting that their weren't any bands like The Band...

    Rod Stewart (Official Thread)

    Re: Rod Stewart I'm with Tattoo on this. His first four solo records (essentially Faces records) are good and I love his Faces and JBG stuff. I could probably make one good mix CD out of the records he put out after Atlantic Crossing. I don't hate it, just doesn't grab me.

    Hype! A great movie about the grunge explosion. A very insightful and often funny movie. The best scene was an interview with a girl who used to be a sales rep for Subpop. She got a call from the New York Times asking for slang terms used in the grunge scene. Annoyed at the constant media...

    Your Top ABC's Bands

    A couple technical questions. If it's a "the" band, do we go with the first word that's not the? Like W=The Who. Also, bands only or solo artists too? And if we list solo artists, is it last name first as in Y= Young, Neil?

    T-Bone Wolk Dies

    He played with everybody from Buddy Guy to Elvis Costello to Bette Midler. And The Hall and Oates band was tight live.

    Blondie (Official Thread)

    Re: The Blondie thread! I guess I take a middle path on this debate. I don't think there is any question that their early records were punk Rock records. In fact, if there was a "Mt. Rushmore" of punk, Debbie's head better be on it. By the same token, I don't think there is any question...

    Blondie (Official Thread)

    Re: The Blondie thread! Dreaming was on the Video Album version of Eat to the Beat. They filmed a video for every song on the record, I beleive they were the first group to do this (I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong). I still have it on VHS.:grinthumb The Eat to the Beat videos...

    Blondie (Official Thread)

    Re: The Blondie thread! Minor correction. She wasn't a "Playboy bunny turned singer". She was a singer all along, she was a member of hippie folk group "The Wind in the Willows" who released their only record in 1968. The stint as a bunny was just one of many jobs she took as a struggling...
