Save Posted June 21, 2010 Posted June 21, 2010 (edited) I saw Weezer when they were the opening band for Lush... I was blown away, I don't think I've missed their show once in L.A. since. That's when Lush went or tried to go mainstream and disappeared. I was at that show downtown LA Glam Slam. Remember the power went out during Lush's second song and they had to reschedule for the next day with "That Dog" opening. That was when Weezer were nobodies and I wish it would have stayed that way. If it wasn't for the Happy Day's video idea they would have most likely have disappeared. Lush didn't disappear they disbanded due to the accidental death of their drummer. Now I know why you look so familiar to me EXO, you must have been in one of the music circle clicks that went to all the Shoegaze and Manchester shows back in the day. Did you know a guy named Brian who was dating somebody named Dianne? Edited June 21, 2010 by Save

Did you know a guy named Brian who was dating somebody named Dianne? Cripes, I was at that show, too... That first night sucked, sitting on the floor and waiting for the power to come back on. I remember Miki on the second night telling everyone to rip some of the bas-relief figures off the columns, because the club sucked so much. And I was a HUGE fan of that dog. Good band... I still see Petra and Rachel when they play, but I lost touch with Anna and Tony...
Wanzerfan Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 If you're into Ozzy Osbourne, he hosted Headbanger's Ball this morning at 2:00 C.D.T.. All it was was a bunch of his videos, and he was hawking his new album Scream. I hope Zack Wilde was able to add his licks to the record. He may not be a Randy Rhodes, but he's an excellent guitar player nonetheless.

Marzan Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 Infinite Arms by Band of Horses. Not as good as their first 2 albums.
taksraven Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 (edited) Lush didn't disappear they disbanded due to the accidental death of their drummer. Well, if we are going to nitpick, Chris Aclands death was not an "accident". Taksraven Edited June 22, 2010 by taksraven

Ozzy fired Zakk Wylde last year because he felt Zakk's guitar riffs sounded too much like Black Label Society (Zakk's band) and it conflicted with Ozzy's music style. Oh, and Zakk was the last to know that Ozzy fired him. The guitar sections of Scream were recorded by Gus G. (of Firewind).

Too bad, I liked Zakk's work on No Rest for the Wicked.As for your little mantra, areaseven: cute, real cute . The reason why I didn't know this little bit of news about Ozzy is that I just about stopped caring about him around halfway through "The Osbounes". He didn't have Gene's, how do I say it, charisma and pure arrogance in doing his reality show. Probably the reason why his show failed, and why "Gene Simmons: Family Jewels" is doing so well (besides, Nick and Sophie are more interesting than Jack and Kelly; probably because they're sober).

Marzan Posted June 25, 2010 Posted June 25, 2010 I like Rush. 2112 Overture has the one of the best openings in rock history for sure.

"Limelight" "Early Distant Warning" (#1 in my book) "Tom Sawyer" "Fly by Night" "Subdivisions" (close #2) "Free Will" "Spirit of Radio" (good song; not one of my favorites, though) "New World Man" "Closer to the Heart" Edited June 26, 2010 by Wanzerfan

Wanzerfan Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 (edited) Hard to beleve Wierd All has been around for 26 years. Not that hard, since the first Artist he parodied was Michael Jackson. At least he recieved permission from the artists to do them (I think the only reason why Coolio says he refused to give permission was to keep his street cred; I suspect that he secretly gave "Weird" Al permission to parody "Gansta's Paradise"). Edited June 27, 2010 by Wanzerfan
Marzan Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 Hard to beleve Wierd All has been around for 26 years. Weird Al's cover of George Harrisons "I got my mind set on you" is one of the best parodies ever.

Motorhead "Born to Raise Hell" "Ace of Spades" "The Game" (it's good that Motorhead that does Triple H's theme music; Lemmy has a very recognizable voice) "Killed by Death" (I love rocking to this one while driving in the video game "Scarface: The World is Yours") Edited June 28, 2010 by Wanzerfan

frothymug Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 Okay, so I had to come in here and see if anyone's mentioned anything about BT's new album "These Hopeful Machines" yet. I searched the forum for it, but didn't see anything, so I wanted to bring this album to your attention. Normally, I listen to hard rock and metal, etc... but I stumbled across this song and had to check out the rest of the songs on this album. BT - Suddenly I loved BT's work in The Fast and the Furious soundtrack, but never really followed him. As soon as I get some extra spending cash, I'm definitely buying this album. Interestingly enough, I started looking into trance and electronica after getting hooked to "Information High" from Macross Plus. Totally worth it, imo...
shiroikaze Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) I haven't paid much attention to Touhou until a little while ago. But since I've been listening to the original tunes, remixes, and arrangements, all I have to say is that the games have some really good music. Some notable arrangements: Phantom Ensemble arranged by UI-70 (not part of any album or release, but this guy is good.)And some recommendations from my little brother: Edited August 25, 2010 by shiroikaze
