Holy crap you're alive! Good to see you posting. Seems we got the same forum reminder this month hahaha :grinthumb
(in case you don't remember me I was one of the main cranky pants at RM)
If the look accentuates the message of the band then by all means do it up (like Primus). It's when the look becomes the focal point of the band that there's a problem (like KISS).
Clutch is probably one of the most criminally underrated bands out there. Their last disc 'Strange Cousins From The West' is a truly great blues rock album but Neil Fallon is far too philosophical with his lyrical approach to embrace any of the tropes of the style. You won't find Robert...
Back in the 90s I would have said
Soundgarden
RHCP
Metallica
White Zombie
Smashing Pumpkins
Monster Magnet
Now I'd say
Clutch
Faith No More
Mr. Bungle
Kyuss
Definitely interesting but I most definitely prefer Mastodon's actual covers rather than her sample / remix method of doing a cover.
Been listening to the band since Blood Mountain, liked all the earlier stuff whenever I had the chance to hear it. Took forever and a day to get into Crack the...
Far too concerned with figuring out how to tie my shoes at the time. Wasn't there. Don't think it really wandered into my neck of the woods until much later. My first taste of the punk rock attitude was like getting zapped by lightning (via old school mid-80s Red Hot Chili Peppers). I fully...
No Herbie Hancock? For shame... this is arguably the track that propelled fusion jazz funk to the masses. Those first 6 notes are all it takes, but most definitely not all it gives.

Time is BROKEN on this site
I just got a super guilt trip email from Magic being all boo-hoo boo-hoo I get sad when regulars don't visit anymore - it's been about 2 weeks.
Two weeks? :wtf:
Last time I signed in was Two Thousand and NINE. Holy crap, Magic only joined the site in...
i guess i just see a difference between 'reasonable' make believe and 'bash you head against the wall' make believe.
The Yard Animals being a perfect example of the kind of awesome fantasy a thread like this could create. random tits to replace one of the greatest frontmen of the most...
you were either not alive or a total moron in the 80s to make a claim like that.
yes he's being martyred a little too much now, yes he did turn into a freakshow. but he was most definitely worthy of all the praise and accolades he received back in his day. Thriller was beyond massive...
tell me this track doesn't rock. that groove. that beat. that bass line. and a trombone solo! oh yeah haha

yep pretty much. in this case the 'elders' would start with the older siblings rather than the parents.
i think it's also one of the reasons mainstream music has been recycling itself more often.
it's unfortunate but there's some stuff that's just going to be low quality regardless of what modern format being used. a hi-fi digital reproduction of a scratchy vinyl recording is still going to sound scratchy unless you have access to better source material.
i'm just happy you can get...
how do you figure it's getting harder to find out about these people? check youtube. it's packed with amazing musicians. mind you it's packed with far more people who'd like to think they're amazing musicians but still. loaded with great stuff.
i think punk rock was absolutely necessary but i don't think it was necessarily for the reasons provided in the poll.
for me i think the core of the movement had a lot more to do with social issues than musical ones. the idea that punk rock is supposed to just be fun, a fashion, or made by...
Re: The Official Seven Mary Three Thread
it's all good. shouldn't be a surprise that i didn't really get into them though.
i have to say that it's funny to hear a lot of people complain about how the internet is killing music but how else could a one hit wonder from over a decade ago get a...
same here. it was called 'back when i was a teenager and therefore the target market of the mainstream'. there's still great stuff but if you're taste has grown past your adolescence then your ability to sample new music should increase as well.
you also don't need to download anything...
all their material is instrumental. i think they might have 3 songs total with 'vocals'. the album Flower lists is a very early one. it's well regarded by critics but not my favourite (especially not the 20 minute track that doesn't really go anywhere). personally i'd suggest starting with...
maybe to an extent, and more at the time, but at this point i think the biggest reason for a negative reaction to disco is that it's an obviously watered down corporate rehash of the killer funk that was going down at the same time. just ditch that 'lame' horn section and get a synthesizer...
