Gubaba Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 I can listen to just about anything, A to Z. Except country music. I f'ing hate country music... *edit* I suppose that isn't completely true; maybe a few by Jerry Reed, or Charlie Daniels' The Devil Went Down To Georgia. Otherwise... *haaaaggggkk* *ptooh* Do Elvis's early tracks for Sun Records count as country? 'Cause I like those. And Johnny Cash. And the Carter Family.
taksraven Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Do Elvis's early tracks for Sun Records count as country? 'Cause I like those. And Johnny Cash. And the Carter Family. Hard to say. We were theorising at work yesterday, however, that the older you get the more Elvis' music speaks to you. And I am tending to agree with that. Taksraven
taksraven Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 and more recently, Muse. Take a Bow kinda reminds me of Queen's score for the campy Flash Gordon flick from the 80's [childhood fav]. Can hear a bit of Queen's influence in their sound, as well as a bit of Radiohead, I think. I think its that all of the bands you have mentioned have dabbled or dabble in space rock, a great (but underrated) musical genre. Taksraven
shiroikaze Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 (edited) Among other things, I've been listening to this for some good time, I like it alot. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MvEFKCwjaU&fmt=22 Edited September 16, 2009 by shiroikaze

Taksraven Possibly...but I pretty much ONLY like the Sun stuff...things like this, his revolutionary first single: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIWlWA1YTBw Among other things, I've been listening to this for some good time, I like it alot. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MvEFKCwjaU&fmt=22 I've never seen the show, but that's a nice song...the piano's a surprising (but cool) touch.
taksraven Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 La Roux and Ladytron. We need more chicks in rock, they're great! Taksraven
reddsun1 Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Do Elvis's early tracks for Sun Records count as country? 'Cause I like those. And Johnny Cash. And the Carter Family. Oh. I forgot about Johnny Cash's A Boy Named Sue. Well. I guess that makes me something of a perfect hypocrite, doesn't it? 's okay. I can admit it...
Wanzerfan Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 (edited) Oh, and I don't like Led Zeppilin. Sorry. Send me to the flight surgeon. Whatever that is The flight surgeon is the naval version of a shrink. Do Elvis's early tracks for Sun Records count as country? 'Cause I like those. And Johnny Cash. And the Carter Family. Yes, since I've heard most of his Sun stuff on Country Legends 97.5FM. Oh. I forgot about Johnny Cash's A Boy Named Sue. Well. I guess that makes me something of a perfect hypocrite, doesn't it? 's okay. I can admit it... The only Jonny Cash song that will never be aired uncut (mainly because the word censored is motherf*cker ), good song nonethess. Edited September 19, 2009 by Wanzerfan
Gubaba Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 The only Jonny Cash song that will never be aired uncut (mainly because the word censored is motherf*cker ), good song nonethess. No it wasn't. It was "son of a bitch." There was also a "damn" in there that sometimes gets censored.
Wanzerfan Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 No it wasn't. It was "son of a bitch." There was also a "damn" in there that sometimes gets censored. My mistake, but since it takes about the same amount of time to say either of both obsenities (the beep is long enough), and I'm a somewhat of a sick puppy, I thought it was the worse of the two.

And yet, a quick Google search would've set you straight. You ARE doing this deliberately, aren't you?
taksraven Posted September 27, 2009 Posted September 27, 2009 Anybody seen Rammstein's latest clip yet? Fark. Taksraven
Wanzerfan Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Last week I saw a PBS plege drive featuring old Motown groups. I forgot how good those groups were. The Temtations The Four Tops Smokey Robinson and the Miracles The Supremes Marvin Gaye (shame what happened to him) Stevie Wonder
kaiotheforsaken Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Anybody seen Rammstein's latest clip yet? Fark. Taksraven Yes and it is hilarious. I love that band and all their crazy antics.
Wanzerfan Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 (edited) Yes and it is hilarious. I love that band and all their crazy antics. You want crazy antics, check out Tenacious D. Edited for my stupid spelling mistake. Edited September 29, 2009 by Wanzerfan
kaiotheforsaken Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Tenacious D is also awesome, they just don't release enough music.
SVF-Gerwalk Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Sometimes go to youtube to lisen music, with anime theme if is possible , and I found a nice amv of Robot Wars that already have 725.953 at this time. Worth to see, and lisen : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrIAylsOKVk
ruskiiVFaussie Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Gone back to Kill Em All, love the old stuff, and tomorrow i'll get Justice For All for a third time to complete the collection, the new GO media for Sony(psp) is great, seeing that i take my PSP like EVERYwhere lol, having fun uploading...
VFTF1 Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Ever since getting my new car, I have been happily listening to some old CDs that were in storage for a long time - amongst them Boston, Europe, Alice Cooper, Bruce Springstien, Blurr, Orbital and Smashing Pumpkins. I've also started listening to a particular radio station which has a knack for playing good music from multiple genres. Of what I've heard - I don't know who does the songs, because I actually don't follow the music industry that closely - but here is a list of tunes I've enjoyed - maybe somebody can tell me who sings them? 1. "Where did all th Love go?" - this is agreat retro song, with a distinctive sixties feel, but not in the corny sense. It's a serious song, with a great revolutionary ferver to it. 2. "I'll keeel you." - I'll Kill You - sung by a French girl in English. It's hilariously entertaining because of her French accent. It's about a girl whose boyfriend got taken by another woman, and she goes into a sob story, or rather in this case a sob song, about how her future has been stollen and how she'll "keel" the bitch who took her man. It's a hoot. 3. Dominos... I think that's the name of the song... but the chorus goes "These girls fall like dominos" and I like it because it's about women who are easy - or at least I think it is. I hope it is. There are a bunch of other ones but mostly forgetable. Although - still... I listen to Fire Bomber, the Metal songs from Gurren Lagann, and the songs from Haruhi Suzumiya on my MP3 most of all. Pete
Totoro242 Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 I just got into Sigur Ros. Freakin awesome. I had never heard of these guys and I am wondering where I was for the last ten years that our paths didnt cross... Apparently, they did and I missed them in two movies and one TV show I saw. Its like Sparks. I only heard of Sparks 5 years ago even though they have been around as long as I have been alive. Oh well, better late than never.

Excillon Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Listening to Clint Mansell's various film scores. Talk about underrated. F**k Danny Elfman, Clint is the god of scoring.

HappyPenguins Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I'm big into music and listen to quite the variety. my preferences though are rock and trance classic rock though, not too interested in the new stuff I also listen to a lot of 90s music, for nostalgia factor and I really like the oldies like classic jazz also if anyone is interested I've got a bunch of trance on my youtube account which can be found here
kaiotheforsaken Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Rammstein's new album hit here in the states this past Tuesday. Really solid work and probably my favorite album of theirs.
reddsun1 Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Last week I saw a PBS plege drive featuring old Motown groups. I forgot how good those groups were. The Temtations The Four Tops Smokey Robinson and the Miracles The Supremes Marvin Gaye (shame what happened to him) Stevie Wonder yup, pretty much can't go wrong with Motown...
Ghost Train Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 A few months ago I realized everything on the radio is crap... I have NPR on full-time now. As for actual music I like, more of a fan of "20th century stuff" . U2 Madonna Sarah Mclachlan Jewel Beastie Boys Hate to sound like gramps now, but songs just don't have a "soul" anymore. Back in the 80's and 90's gangsta rappas were signing about "the community" and the problems they faced on a daily life (no I'm serious lol) and of the fight against the oppresive force known as the LAPD...today "hip-hop" is just about booty and clubbing.

Hmm...I never realized that "Baby Got Back" and "2 Legit 2 Quit" had such heavy meaning behind them... I dunno, really...even '80s and '90s stuff generally sounds a little TOO produced for my taste, unless I'm just in the mood for ear candy. If I want something that really roars, I'd rather listen to '60s stuff.
Wanzerfan Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 Remeber when Anthrax and Public Enemy did "Bring on the Noise"? Better than the orignial, in my opinion.
Totoro242 Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 "Bring Tha Noise" I think you mean Best rap metal album ever: Judgement Night Soundtrack To me, it captures the essence of the alternative and rap music scenes of the early 90's like nothing else.
