punk/ metal discussion. Maybe its the same chords played in different progressions/ tempo...? Black Flag comes to mind... maybe others, too.. i'm blanking... any suggestions? full disclosure: last week I promised to not post (i mean limit!) after midnight. guess i can't help myself..

Apocalyptica's "inquisition symphony" it's a bunch of crazed cellists who cover Metallica and have some originals, too. I think theres 5 of them, and they hail from finland. A girl I used to work with turned me on to them, an unlikely source to say the least. whenever they pop up on the shuffle, i bend an ear!!

now thats just uncallled for. but funny in a way!

Radiohead was wonderful. Al Green delivered on time, and, umm, as much as I hate to admit it... i even enjoyed Coldplay. there. i said it.

good post. food for thought!

thanks, bro. sometimes i feel invisible on this board!!!

I can't even begin to contribute: thats like making a list about my kids least favorite qualities!

Yes!

Bruce, INC. i kinda think that sucks.

jerry, j, verlaine yesyesyes. gotta mention Larry campbell and doug martch, too. great thread, makes me want to soundcheck every entry

freakin love that lineup: a perfect mashup of both me and my 14 year olds music tastes. maybe our version of "motorcycle maintenance" roadtrip from York, Pa to Tennessee, tennesse (ain't no place i'd rather be!)

HAHAHAHA. LOL freaking funny. seriously, I pray I never have to hear it.

summerteeth was my first love. then: AM (and later in the story Uncle Tupelo and son volt) and i was not convinced it was the same BAND. but not un like some finewine and many repeated listenings... it just keeps getting better.

wow that would be a sweet sickening thud sound. no more posting after midnight. promise.

optimism brims over in times of change. it makes us stronger and shit. we'll all laugh about this sooner or later. sooner if wilco releases the record and/or announces spring eastcoast dates!!!

sho' nuff!!! well said, amigo.

hang tight, my bro. this too shall pass. Right. Right??

woahhhh. Gratitude time, people. we're all in this bunker together. vibes. prayers. cocktails. repeat.

Billy zoom: sweet D Boon: immaculate Pete buck: consumate cool or the road tested j mascis lest we forget the immortal Frank Zappa.... and of course i'd be remiss not to mention the sonic soulful jerry... these days I'm loving Malkmus angularity. absolutely Uncle Neil/ Nels/ Doug Martsch/ Verlaine/ sweet lou reed, too, when he wants to. full disclosure: based on sound/ live experience moreso than visual vibe....

YES, 2008 was an incredibly prolific period for relevant, excellent, creative, and fantastic music. Agreed. Artiists too many to mention have been covered on this very site (we could always make 'em up- forward regression, what economy?, Big SillyStupid, DownlukSoseriouss, boy) Thanks, for without your contributions and handiwork, i may have never discovered such artists. STILL: its kinda hard to keep up. our homeland in ruin: agreed/ aggregious/ and okawright. and thats when artists rise to the occasion. thats one theory. or i'm gettin old but its a helluva lot easier to pres

i left my heart.....

Maybe it's me Maybe its the cold Maybe it gets dark way too early Maybe it's cause i'm un (under) employed? Maybeitsme mayBeItsMe May Bee MAYBEEE someone Knows what I'm talkin about

After much thought and consideration: drrrrummmmm rollllllll pleasssssssssssssssssssssssseeee: john coltrane

missed hershey last year due to OCMD vacation w/ kids. hopeful for this year (and Philly, too!!)
