Oh my God, Matt.

Uh, well duh...

So can you can blow your speakers. With rock and roll.

[Buckyrig]

Blow, yes.

Speakers and rock-n-roll, no.

:blink:

[MattWaterman]

Oh, the speakers will get blown, all right.

The blowing is unavoidable! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mo52aalF2H8)

Well, something's getting blown.

One-Quarter correct: He wrote a song for Kiss.


Speaking of which, that was a sore point I wanted to bring up with you people: Why is it I'm just hearing about THIS (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2TtQmCCz-w&mode=related&search=) nonsense now?!?

:man: :man: :man:

You disappoint me!

[Buckyrig]

Oh no. I knew about that. I mean, I remember hearing - and seeing photos - of him in a cheesy 80s metal band.

Tori Amos too. :blink:

Bolton's (at that time Bolotin's) band was called Blackjack. It opened for Ozzy in '83.

Well DLR's "Sensible Shoes" is quite acceptable...

[Newt]

Yeah, rap and metal had their shining moment of harmony right there, even if Flavor Flav and Scott Ian are both goobers. If only the two genres had parted ways afterwards.

Except then we wouldn't have Rage...

I can't decide if losing Rage would be a fair trade to be spared Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, and the rest of that sorry bunch.

Heh! I almost did. I even considered Dio too. But the Blind Guardian's spoke.

There were other German power metal bands besides the Scorpions? Why?

In the late '90's I saw a show featuring Dio, the Scorps, and Deep Purple. My hand has been permanently contorted into the devil's horns ever since.

In all honesty, I really did like the Dixie Chicks last album. None of the other ones; just that one. I listened to it for about 3 months... Oh, and I like Jenny Lewis, even if her music can be a little affected.

Shania Twain in terminally linked, in my mind, to the convenience store job I had in college...

The Chicks are honestly one of the best mainstream country acts going. They shouldn't be, but they are. Jenny's cool; I liked her album with the Watson Twins. I'm not so sure about the new Rilo Kiley album.

I live close enough to Nashville to pick up most of their radio stations, and most of their country stations are awful- almost exclusively Top 40, with an occasional standby from the '70's or '80's. Even the most popular non-mainstream country artists, like Lucinda Williams, Wilco, or Steve Earle, get no airtime except on the rock and progressive stations. Hell, Brighteyes is more country than most of what gets played on Nashville country stations these days.

As far as I can tell, there is no classic country station to complement the classic rock and oldies stations. Now I'd listen to that; I'm a sucker for Hank, Ernie, Patsy, Johnny, Waylan, Tanya, Loretta, and the rest. Mainstream country got real real bad at the end of the '70's, and it hasn't really recuperated since.

[MattWaterman]

Yeah, I like Wilco on and off too---I really love Airplane to Heaven...and I'm not even religious! ;)

To be honest, I'm not so big into that old stuff. I probably should be...I'd probably like it. The authentic pathos in some of it is probably slit-your-wrist good...if that makes sense.

[Newt]

Give it a shot! I think the traditional path for rockers into old country is via the 'outlaw' country guys- Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylan Jennings, Merle Haggard, David Allan Coe, etc.

[Mike225]

Agreed. Johnny Cash is the Don.

[Screeny]

If by 'Johnny Cash' you mean 'Kenny Rogers' then yes, I also agree. :p

[Newt]

You're serious, aren't you?

[down21]

I dated someone who liked all the old country. He'd always play Bocephus' Kaw-Liga on the juke box.

[Buckyrig]

Who's worst song, 'Behind Blue Eyes'. Sickening.

It just doesn't stop with you, does it? :mad:

[Newt]

It's not a good song compared to what the Who can do. It's still the best song Limp Bizkit ever recorded.

[Buckyrig]

And also, as much as I try to have an open mind about the artistic value of things that I don't like myself...there are a few things I cannot stomach to place on the same planet with other artistic endeavors. One is ballet. Another is country.

Shoot this thread and put it out of its misery!!!

I hate you all and you're all on Newt's list now.

[Buckyrig]

It's not a good song compared to what the Who can do. It's still the best song Limp Bizkit ever recorded.

Nah...it's one of my favorite Who songs.

But whatever...you still toil under the enforced fallacy that Nirvana was a good band. :p

[Newt]

Leave my lise alone! Wait, what's a lise?

And anyway, if you don't like country, just mince your way back to Sissyville. This thread isn't yours anymore.

Nirvana had its moments. It's certainly a better band than Motley Crue YOU HEARD ME WATERMAN!

[Mike225]

But whatever...you still toil under the enforced fallacy that Nirvana was a good band. :pNirvana was a good band..

[Buckyrig]

Nirvana was a good band..

Even Grohl says they weren't. :nyah:

[Newt]

They may not have been the best musicians, but since when does that matter?

[Mike225]

The Doors would've been good if it weren't for their lead singer..

:whistlin:

[Buckyrig]

They may not have been the best musicians, but since when does that matter?

They didn't write good songs either.

[MattWaterman]

I always liked Pear Jam better. And Alice in Chains for that matter...

[dano]

Alternately, i think Foo Fighters is way better than Nirvana was.
I'm not a huge fan but at least they make sense.

[Newt]

Aw, some of their songs were good. Anyways, the whole point of Nirvana was the energy and emotion in their music. I agree, as musicians or as songwriters they can't stand up to many of their contemporaries, and they became way more popular than they should have been, but that's no reason to call them a bad band.

You're right...the fact that they were a bad band is reason.

[Mike225]

You're right...the fact that they were a bad band is reason.Aren't you the same person that liked The Last Action Hero?

[Buckyrig]

Yes.

And Journey. :p


EDIT: And unrelated, but I also like Yes, who had I think the same cover artist as Journey. :laugh:

[Newt]

Alternately, i think Foo Fighters is way better than Nirvana was.
I'm not a huge fan but at least they make sense.

Foo Fighters were good, but they seem to have been stuck in a rut the last few years.

I always liked Pear Jam better. And Alice in Chains for that matter....

I like these bands too, but if you're talking about songwriting, AIC had some real stinkers. But again, like Nirvana, the words are not that important with that kind of band.

Pearl Jam has been pretty consistently good. I for one would like to never hear 'Jeremy' or 'Alive' again, however. Or their cover of that car-wreck song.

[MattWaterman]

No one seems to remember now but at the time of Kurt's suicide the band was kinda on the way out. That's not to say they couldn't have back with a boffo album later but, at the time, they were kinda a pulling a Ratt to Pearl Jam's Motley Crue...

[Buckyrig]

:laugh:

[Newt]

Yes.

And Journey. :p


EDIT: And unrelated, but I also like Yes, who had I think the same cover artist as Journey. :laugh:

Journey is the tool of Satan.

I... I think I'm going to be sick.

[Buckyrig]

Journey is the tool of Satan.

No one is proclaiming them to be anything other than an arena rock band though. Ear candy that I like more out of nostalgia than anything else...and I do get a kick out of how much the band annoys the shit out of 'indie folk'. :laugh:

Ha! Agree on both counts! AIC's Jar of Flies is one of my favorite albums because it has a coherent theme and one that's important to me (the individual vs. the group mind). Facelift, on the other hand... I don't know what's going on.

Pearl Jam I like...in the abstract. But the fact of the matter is I haven't listened to them in years. ... I think we had another thread about that subject... :whistlin:

[dano]

Puke thru your skin, amphibian!

[Buckyrig]

I only listen to sitar music. :whistlin:

[Newt]

Sounds like you let other people's opinions affect your enjoyment of music. Anyway, I don't have anything against arena rock itself, just against most of its practitioners. I'm all for Foghat, for example.

[MattWaterman]

Who else can make an entire line out of:

'Street lights... People.' and a scream?


Top-notch, if you ask me.

[Newt]

Puke thru your skin, amphibian!

I can't do that. Thanks for the suggestion, though!

[Buckyrig]

Sounds like you let other people's opinions affect your enjoyment of music.

Nah...that's just a bonus!

[Mike225]

I can't do that. Thanks for the suggestion, though!Pussy.

Thanks! I like Cheap Trick. They upstaged STP at the only STP concert I ever attended.

Steve Perry is better than Perry Farrell.

YEEEHAWWWWW!!!!

Wow, you're dumb.

[Phatman]

The Foo Fighters might be the best rock band on the planet right now (IMO).

Nirvana is over-rated:largely due to the over-inflating of Cobain's talent by just about everybody. Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots and Pearl Jam are their superior contemporaries(IMO).

[Buckyrig]

Wow, you're dumb.

Duh...I saw some adult magazines on the sidewalk with some matches and I got an idea...duh.

I like taters!

[Newt]

Good for you, Bucky! You're a winner! Have a banana; can you say ba-nan-a? :banana:

[Buckyrig]

Yeah...that was an impersonation. :sure:

Are you trying to tell me you didn't have a crush on Kip Winger?

[Newt]

Yeah...that was an impersonation. :sure:
It was a good try, Bucky! Now, what does the cat say?

[Buckyrig]

Check out this bullshit Newt just PMed me. :eek:


Ha! The irony of this whole thread is that my all time favorite band is really Great White!

I'm just playing with you, but everyone on the board is a bunch of chumps.

[Newt]

That's just low.

[dano]

is that like a glove slap?

[MattWaterman]

Yeah, well, Newt posted this once. But then he, like, deleted it...


No one can replace Vince Neil. He was the best singer ever. Even better than David Lee Roth. I can't listen to anything but them.

Oh, and I'm stupid.

[Newt]

Bucky doesn't have the upper body strength to slap anyone with a glove.

[Newt]

Yeah, well, Newt posted this once. But then he, like, deleted it...

Now Matt, just because you're a loser is no reason to be so bitter and spiteful.

[Buckyrig]

More fun for li'l Newtie. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=rVhK1mGJMFA)

[Newt]

You are utter scum, sir.

[Buckyrig]

Udder scum would be cream...and yese, I am the Cream and I rise high above your chumpish ass, plebe!

[Newt]

You are no Cream. Jack, Ginger, and the Clapster could kick the asses of you and any of your pansy-ass arena 'rockers' any day of the week.

[Buckyrig]

Have some of this! (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2671556445672714458&q=mr+roboto+styx&total=405&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=1)

Thanks, jerk. America's first decent prog band was Tool. We kinda missed the boat on that genre.

[Buckyrig]

You know...you can probably get away with a lot of the other musical bashing...but this statement would mean that you think Rush sucks...big problem on a geek board. :whistlin:


Also, Yes was a very good band. :p

[Mike225]

Rush was a Canadian band, weren't they?

[Buckyrig]

So...? :huh:

[Buckyrig]

...and not 'was'...'is'.

[dano]

i hATE RUSH!!!!! AAAAARGH!!!

[Buckyrig]

i hATE RUSH!!!!! AAAAARGH!!!

You're on Newt's list.

[Mike225]

So...? :huh:He said "American prog band."

[Buckyrig]

He said "American prog band."

Didn't see that in my blind rage.

Well, what about Mothers of Invention?

[Mike225]

Didn't see that in my blind rage.http://thumbnail.search.aolcdn.com/truveo/images/thumbnails/06/D9/06D92FD5253118.jpg

[Newt]

Didn't see that in my blind rage.

Well, what about Mothers of Invention?

I've never heard them called 'prog' before. I think the usual genre applied to them is 'weird'.

I happen to like Rush, as well as several of the British prog bands.

[Buckyrig]

What about The Ramones?

:nyah:







I have a broad definition...REALLY broad...wait, what does broad mean again? :huh:

[Newt]

Right, Bucky... and there's also that great prog act called the Carpenters...

[MattWaterman]

I thought "Prog Rock" was the likes of Kansas, Styx, and, yes, Rush. That zany stuff that goes on for hours without the whimsy of the stoner jam bands...

[Buckyrig]

Nirvana was prog. :whistlin:

[MattWaterman]

You're a prog!!!

[Buckyrig]

I thought "Prog Rock" was the likes of Kansas, Styx, and, yes, Rush. That zany stuff that goes on for hours without the whimsy of the stoner jam bands...

Ooh ooh...that's right! Kansas had a few good songs.



Carry on my wayward son. There'll be peace when you are done. Lay your weary head to rest. Don't you cry no more. No!






And some really shitty ones too.

[Buckyrig]

You're a prog!!!

Go listen to CDB you Kentucky Fried Dipshit!

[Newt]

I thought "Prog Rock" was the likes of Kansas, Styx, and, yes, Rush. That zany stuff that goes on for hours without the whimsy of the stoner jam bands...

There are also good English prog bands, like Jethro Tull, Yes, and King Crimson. Pink Floyd is prog, too, but no one ever calls them that, for some reason.

Aside- Genesis sucks with or without Gabriel.

[Buckyrig]

Why do so many British singers sing without a British accent?

[Newt]

Go listen to CDB you Kentucky Fried Dipshit!
Have you ever listened to the CDB song that goes, "And you never did think that it ever would happen again," and continues on about how America has overcome its internal division and is ready to kick ass again? The instrumental part, while played with typical early '80's country instrumentation, actually sounds like mid-'70's prog-metal. Weird.

[Newt]

In America.

The Vandals covered it. I have that version. :laugh:

[MattWaterman]

Wait...who is CDB? Charlie Daniels Band???!!

:huh:

[Newt]

That is correct.

Not one person has brought up the Travelling Wilburys. Best sense of humor in music. Hmph. And you all call yourselves hip. Or cool. Hot...righteous...whatever the heck y'all call yerselves now...

[Buckyrig]

Bah...who needs Supergroups.

I got Frank Zappa, Barenaked Ladies, and The Vandals for humor. :nyah:

We didn't want to drag George and the Big O down into the mud.

[MattWaterman]

:sure:

I got Wierd Al, motherfuckers.

[Buckyrig]

He's parody. Very sepecific. Artful in it's own way. But I still like original music.

[Newt]

The AQUABATS!!!

[Buckyrig]

The AQUABATS!!!

*cough* Travis Barker *cough*

[Buckyrig]

I better mention The Almighty D before Phats stumbles in and wrecks the joint.

Although I never should have forgotten in the first place.

A Hug For Dano!!! (http://youtube.com/watch?v=yGGdW4-UYbY)

[MattWaterman]

I don't dislike Rush...I just sorta feel bad for them....

They have the worst qualities of both nerds and hippies and, goshdarn it, I think they should be Dungeon Master for once...

[Buckyrig]

Oh, they stopped writing scifi/fantasy themed songs in the 70s. :yawn:

[MattWaterman]

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Best defense evar!!!


"I'm not a nerd. I stopped speaking in Vulcan years ago..."

:laugh:

[Buckyrig]

Hey! :man:

I thought you would defend a band so philosophically-themed in their lyrics. :whistlin:

[dano]

uh, he likes Motley Crue

y'know.. girlsgirlsgirls.

Not if it's coming from a bunch of nerds! Dio is way better at that wildebeasts and angels stuff anyway.

In the meantime, it appears Dano is more the, It's Raining Men, sort... :whistlin:

[Newt]

You really should try some of their newer stuff. I thought Vapor Trails was a good album.

Anyway, they're not NERDS, they're CANAJIANS. It's different, sort of.

[Buckyrig]

Screw you!

They give good advice to aspiring comic creators.

Living in the limelight
The universal dream
For those who wish to seem
Those who wish to be
Must put aside the alienation
Get on with the fascination
The real relation
The underlying theme

WHAT THE HELL IS PROG?!?!?!?

[Buckyrig]

It's an acronym for Prairie Rock Oklahoma Guitar.

It started off as plains hillbillie music around 1957 in Oklahoma, but eventually spread to England where it was developed into what it is today.

[Mike225]

You should be ashamed of that one, John.

:laugh: Brilliant!

[JJ McKool]

Yeah, I knew it meant progressive rock, smart guy, I meant, WHAT THE HELL IS IT? I see no defined lines. It's like Nu-Metal. Or Punk.

[Buckyrig]

Nu-Metal is any metal band that began after 1990 and also sucks hard.

Which is why SOAD is not Nu-Metal.

[Nitecrawlah2]

Yeah, I never got the nu-metal tag myself. If it's metal, it's fucking metal. If it's rap-rock, stop calling it nu-metal!!

[Buckyrig]

Blame Waterman! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n4qVJnhZwWY)

YEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAWWWWW!!!!!

[Newt]

Waterman is not blameless in this, but really the brunt of the guilt lies on you. You are a bad person.

[Buckyrig]

Coulda been worse. I coulda linked Unskinny Bop. :p

But if you really want to lay blame...here ya go! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KW2J_UZ8lQU)

Oh c'mon...link it!!

Yeah, but then why does Godsmack or Disturbed get called Nu-Metal? Or RATM doesn't? Disturbed said themselves they aren't metal anymore, they're hard rock, and Godsmack is sort of post-grunge, but are in pretty much the same category.

Frick, we need some people to sit down, like they did with the music genome project, and just figure out the genres, or if not that, strip the genres back to basics: Rock, Country, Hip hop, Blues, Jazz, and Classical. Pop isn't a genre, because it's just the simplified version of whatever music style is "in" and "mainstream" at that time; Punk started out as an antithesis of pop, therefore it's not a genre either, even if you go the route of it's developed into it's own sound, it's never really been more than unskilled and technically bad garage rock, with few bands transcending that, but mostly just ending up in "rock" anyways, again, negating it. Metal could be it's own genre, but it can be really easy to have the line blurred. Did I miss a major one?
