High On Fire Power Trip Devil Master Creeping Death

Electric Wizard and Midnight

i went to see a night of experimental music last night w/ my son... we grabbed dinner before and as a result missed most of Forbes' set, a trumpeter who played with some backing tracks. was pretty good for the couple of minutes we saw. my friend Kate was next. she plays guitar in Major Stars and for tonight she had a half-dozen or so electric guitars and amps scattered amidst the cavernous interior of Boston City Hall, where she would gradually set up a noise loop on one and then move to the next, occasionally adding in some vocals along the journey to the next guitar station. pretty cool.

eventually they will tell us that our social security number is in danger of being shut down and we need to call to re-activate it.

Tool and Killing Joke

bbop, you posted just a bit too early.

how was it? Did Lukas re-create Neil's cocaine booger?

they should have renamed it The Final Waltz

i had heard that of the color variants, white is supposedly the worst re: surface noise, and at least anecdotally i found that to be true. I've got a Warpaint record that's half white and half black, and you can hear the difference as the cartridge moves from zone to zone.

"Man, this spotted owl tastes just like bald eagle!"

count me in for #teamparquet they made it their own song.

right, he'd saunter out w/ his glass of red wine when it was his turn to sing, and then disappear again. must have been a blast on the tour bus!

i haven't seen him in the NP lineup since 2014.

is Bejar fully out of NP now?

i love this song. this record is definitely one of the year's favorites for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrMZ2p1aOAA

i think we can all agree that this is a high water achievement in the realm of music. definitely stick it out until the end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHpNmkgKs5c

yeah i misunderstood what i thought you were saying, and what you were commenting on re: jeff's comment.

well 'rock music' is a pretty big descriptor, no? i guess with the 'normal' 2 gtr/bass/drums lineup i wasn't necessarily defaulting to Stones/'Mats sounds. yeah i wish there were more bands like Dungen but glad we do have them. not sure of your appetite for post-punk/slightly gothy stuff but Idle Hands and Low Life are worth checking out. again though i would say it's covering some well-traveled ground vs anything truly innovative. so i get your point. if you wanna check out some of the fringes of black metal, Oranssi Pazuzu or Laster are two of my favorites lately. i thought Ohmme's

they changed the words too! Fagen was nowhere to be seen during that song. i guess he went backstage to do it. with a fez on, of course. i am glad i went, but i certainly don't need to see Steely Dan play again. I mean, it was great to hear some tracks I'd never otherwise get to hear, like "Caves Of Altamira" or "Green Earrings" or "Haitian Divorce" which was a clear highlight. but i didn't like some of the liberties taken by the guitar player, esp on the iconic solo of "Kid Charlemagne." I mean, play it like it was played, don't put your own spin on it. I never did see The Wall but I woul

i think i am gonna go see Steely Dan tonight. The Royal Scam is too great of a lure not to

yes, and the frequency of the AC does make a different wrt to condenser hum, so state your continent. i mean, if you're really bored w/ the classic rock group instrumentation i would assume you've moved onto other things. forgive me if i haven't checked the now playing thread for a while, but new recommendations are always welcome. btw, here's a rock song that still has that vital spark of urgency. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpD6faiW5Jc

well no accordions (at least not a quintet) but there's this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jM8dCGIm6yc

so what are you listening to instead? the latest electro-clash banger? tuvan throat singers backed by a black metal accordion quintet? the hum from your refrigerator condenser?
