Is it any good? I don't want to download this album for the next 5 to 7 hours if isn't going to be any good.

*50.6 Kbps* :upset:

Off topic- What program do you guys use to size avatars? I had something, but then the free trial expired and it doesn't work any more. I'm getting sick of Lance in the avatar.

Glitterati 08-28-2005 10:17 AM

I use paint.

ATM 08-28-2005 10:18 AM

Same here.

Everyone check out my Grand Funk thread.

The album is sooo good.

[QUOTE=Slug]The album is sooo good.[/QUOTE]

Quoted for truth.

ATM 08-28-2005 10:31 AM

Have you listened yet?

robo2448 08-28-2005 10:31 AM

Meh I suck with avatars. I finished downloading that album.

ATM 08-28-2005 10:34 AM

Post your thoughts in the Grand Funk thread.

I don't want it to drop off the first page already :-/

[QUOTE=Livewired]The guitarist in Stillwater reminded me of George Harrison.[/QUOTE]

He really looks like Dickey Betts though, and plays a Les Paul.

ruffdawg 08-28-2005 11:15 AM

Hey, just wanna throw in my 2 cents. Most really awesome and somewhat popish CR bands have been mentioned (Zep, Floyd, Doors etc.) but then back then there was so much more.

If anyone here is into progressive rock (or even prog metal for that matter) check out bands like:

Yes
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Gentle Giant
King Crimson
Cargo
The Flower Kings
Deep Purple
Uriah Heep
Camel

many many others

also check out the site [url]http://www.progarchives.com[/url] for even more bands n info.

[QUOTE=Lunch]Any chance you could upload Reckoning?[/QUOTE]
For some reason there is 2 discs that I downloaded, but when I look at any website, it says it's 1 :\


I'll upload the 1st(real) disc.

ATM 08-28-2005 11:32 AM

This new Neil Young is awesome.

Hey, everybody, I'm new to the site so I decided to put on one message. First of all...I'm really impressed how so many teenager still like Classic Rock and in my opinion...I do think bands (like the darkness) are a start to a big Classic Rock revival. I don't think they're anywhere near as good or authentic as say The Who, Led Zeppelin, Van Morrison, or Bob Dylan...but I do think that its a start...and a very good attempt at bringing back Classic Rock

ATM 08-28-2005 11:37 AM

Welcome to the forums, man.

Lunch 08-28-2005 11:38 AM

Not that I really care, but whatever happened to the Darkness? Everyone made a huge deal of them a couple years ago.

JonG 08-28-2005 11:45 AM

I didn't even like them. That video made me scared. He was rubbing on that purple thing.


I only liked when they had all them Marshalls stacked up. :lol:


Right now I'm hooked on Help on the Way/Slipknot! and Here Comes Sunshine.

Jacaranda 08-28-2005 11:46 AM

They have a new album coming out, and the lead singer/guitarist Justin Hawkins has his solo CD coming out soon. But their bassist Frankie left so I dunno whats going on there.

[QUOTE=Jacaranda]They have a new album coming out, and the lead singer/guitarist Justin Hawkins has his solo CD coming out soon. But their bassist Frankie left so I dunno whats going on there.[/QUOTE]

His solo single is absolutely awful.

And when is the new Darkness album coming out?

Whoa. He uses punctuation and capitalizes when needed.


WHOA

Jacaranda 08-28-2005 12:04 PM

I'm thinking I heard somewhere around November.

(the superman) 08-28-2005 12:11 PM

Well...I'm new to the site. And so I decided to put up a message. First of all...I'm real impressed with how many teenagers still like Classic Rock...and in my opinion I think that alot of modern bands (like the darkness) are trying hard to make a very big Classic Rock revival. Although they are not nearly as good or authentic as say The Who, Les Zeppelin, Van Morrison, or Bob Dylan. But I think that there's going to be a big Classic Rock comeback thanks to some modern bands.

Illmatic 08-28-2005 12:26 PM

I sometimes hear this argument, and I'd like to know which bands besides The Darkness (who are more of a Van Halen/Queen/AC/DC pastiche) are doing a "classic rock revival".

Jacaranda 08-28-2005 12:33 PM

The Dandy Warhols sound like Classic Rock or have that fibe.

Illmatic 08-28-2005 12:35 PM

The Dandy Warhols don't really sound like a classic rock band to me, which is why I don't think there is or ever will be a "classic rock revival".

Jacaranda 08-28-2005 12:40 PM

I don't think they will be a CR Revival because back then it was a different time, different things going on and IMO less about making big bucks and more about Rock N' Roll, in a sense, also there was only one or two main genres back then that were really popular now we have like 10.
But when I say the Dandy Warhols I can just imagine 30 years from now having my kids listening to them and thinking them as a Classic Rock band.
/makes no sense.

Illmatic 08-28-2005 12:45 PM

Please, there have always been rock bands who were "about making big bucks".

But yes, it was a different time then. It would be impossible to recreate the same context and surroundings that spawned Dylan, Neil Young, Jimi Hendrix, The Stones, Cream, etc.

later[/QUOTE]All of those bands have been mentioned here at one point or another. I've never seen Gentle Giant though. I used to have a copy of [I]In a Glass House[/I] but hated it so I sold it on Ebay. I'm not a big fan of Prog period even the bigger names don't appeal to me (King Crimson, Rush, Yes....etc) the only exception is of course Pink Floyd.

I hate this whole "classic rock revival" thing going around it'll never happen again the greatness will never be matched again. Great new bands will form but there will never be another era of Classic Rock.
