He’s some death doom musician who is apparently the pinnacle of the craft.
Yeah, I’m not chick fil A or hobby lobby consumer either. Not Wendy’s either.
I don’t know, I think Kanye was right on the money. Especially in light of W’s mother’s statement about the superdome. Clearly he was raised with those values from an early age.
Yea I like to keep their personal and artistic work separate barring anything truly disgusting like someone being outed as a baby puncher or serial killer. I don’t agree with a lot of Al’s politics and dopey shit he’s done in the past but the man has made some amazing music.
I have a hard time doing that because I find bigotry and anti semitism, unfair working conditions truly disgusting . I don’t like the idea of supporting someone who is a bigot or anti semite or some place or person that is a greedy bitch at the expense of their workers… It’s the least I can do.
Alan Parsons - Ammonia Avenue Boxset
Joe Frawley - Body Nocturnes
Vanilla - Into the Dream
Orbital - Halcyon
That Orbital album is brilliant
Front 242 - Front by Front
I got into Front 242 because they were playing the third Lollapalooza, which I was just ga-ga over (I was 17), and they were described by others as the band filling NIN and Ministry’s “industrial” slot. And I loved NIN and Ministry. So I bought “Fuck Up Evil,” and the rest is history. Amazing band.
About four people watched them at Lollapalooza. Me and three others.
Echo & the Bunnymen- Crocodiles
Fields of the Nephilim- Elizium
Fela Kuti’s “ITT”
Great album
Been on a big Buck Owens kick lately then noticed Buck Satan right there next to him and decided to give that a spin too. Mike’s solos are the highlight of that Buck Satan album.
The Exploited
Mr. Bungle’s cover of The Exploited’s “USA”
Can
Thou’s album of Nirvana covers
Lynyrd Skynyrd (just discovered 'em – didn’t even know the end of Free Bird {and, while we’re on the subject, uh, WOW} until I heard it during the church scene in Kingsman)
I listened to their cover of endless nameless. Pretty impressive that they could cover a noise track like that pretty accurately.
The rest of the album is pretty much in that vein – screaming metal vocals, turgid dirge guitar, lot of feedback. Like Nirvana! Ha, I’m joking. It’s really good, and the final song, “My Girl” (Nirvana called “Where Did You Sleep Last Night?”), is face-meltingly good.
you had me at “face melting,” but when I look for it I can’t find it. Anywhere you can point me to hear this opus?
found it. Oof This is definitely not my cup of tea. enjoy.
I saw those guys in Memphis of all places in the late 80s, maybe '88?. I shit you not.
I laughed out loud at your post. Thanks I needed that today
I ain’t reading everything, but I skimmed through and saw some jibber jabber about Elvis. Elvis fucking RULES and if someone doesn’t like Elvis it’s because they are Communist pussies and hate America. Fact.
My own car has had a busted CD player for about 8 months now, but my wife’s car has streaming music service. I just type in the name of an artist I want to listen to and then it comes up as “________ streaming radio” or something. It’ll then play a random mishmash of somewhat similar or tangentially related artists along with the one of note. My recent go-to’s have mostly been…
W.A.S.P.,
The Mentors
GG Allin
Wall of Voodoo
Del Shannon
Mercyful Fate
Dion and the Belmonts
The really cool feature is that you can just skip a song if you don’t want to listen to it. It’s kinda like setting a playlist on shuffle and being able to skip, haha.
Elvis rules the bakery and Deli section in the supermarket. FACT.
It took Danzig to make Elvis great.
