Man, you must have some bruises on that noggin of yours from all that head-bangin' :mrgreen:
Amazingly, not yet. My music tastes have become disturbingly monotonous in the past year -- I listen to thrash, death and classic metal on an almost exclusive basis (mostly for reviewing purposes). I figure at some point I'll hit the wall and swear off everything except Neil Young and Bowie, but it's not happened yet...
My friend tells me the new Perfect Circle is "the Cure with a rockin' guitarist,"
I thought the exact same thing, that they're trying to sound like Depeche Mode or The Cure as opposed to "Tool Lite."
Speaking of Tool, after listening to
Lateralus today for the first time in at least a year, I've decided it's a pretty tedious album. Make of that what you will.
he says he likes it o.k. Your thoughts?
Only gone through it a couple of times, "OK" is about the best I can offer at the moment. For a pop band they certainly take themselves awfully seriously.
Howsabout the new Maiden, I saw they hyped this bad boy enough that it cracked the Top 25.
I'd give it a solid "B" right about now. They're shooting for a
Number of the Beast/
Piece of Mind sound, and hit it for the most part. 'Arry can still tear it up on the bass. There's about two or three songs where Dickinson's voice is like fingernails on a blackboard. Jesus, that man was not meant to sing ballads.
Former Sunny Day Real Estate. Kind of prog-emo, I'm sure most around here would hate it
I had Sunny Day's first album way back in high school. Then they put out the all-pink album which I thought was shit, and for the most part forgot about them. Didn't half the band turn up in the Foo Fighters?
am going to see them play this Sunday
I'm off to Dallas in six weeks to see Slayer. Pretty psyched about it since hearing that they played all of
Reign in Blood in London this summer. Plus Lombardo's still on zee drums. I've only seen the band with Bostaph.
Oh and Arch Enemy's the support act.
