We all gotta go eventually.

[QUOTE=Badmoon]Well, sorry I haven't been here today. But a good day none the less.

- I managed to get high after school.

- Came up with enough money for shrooms for this weekend.

- Still have enough for one CD.


...classic rock is cool.[/QUOTE]

Congrats on getting high. I'm excited for tomorrow. One easy final at 8:30 in the morning then no school til Tuesday. I'm gonna be so baked all weekend, me and all my friends and associates are uniting for one big blaze fest.

Tell me how the shrooms go, I tried to buy some over the Christmas holidays, but it never ended up happening. That's what happens when your drug dealer is a seventeen year old wigger with no brain.

By a Zamfir cd. Good music to chill out to.

edit- and I like Oasis, they wrote some good songs in the nineties, nothing too fancy, but the talent was there. Plus Liam is always good for entertainment (who pays to watch boxing these days?).

[QUOTE=Sgt._Joker]classic rock is the sh*t!

thats all, but classic rock> newer grunge n punk rock,

we need less punk bands and more bands influenced by the who and the stones, and the beatles!!!!

like oasis![/QUOTE]

What we need is less harcore and emo bands. My god, it's like every new band is either some piece of crap hardcore band or a whiney generic emo band. Just look at [url]www.purevolume.com[/url]. Every freaking young band these days is emo or hardcore and maybe a little punk. It's like the **** english sciffle outbreak exept the sccifler had more talent!

sheeshers. :(. My band's going to be good though.


/rant over.

I was watching a Simple Plan video yesterday, and it was the exact same thing every other band like that is doing, no originality at all.

The singer tried to sound angst driven and angry (failed)
They all had matching black shirts, blue jeans, and died black hair (gelled of course)
They all started playing matching black and white guitars/basses (to match their clothes and hair)

I was like WTF, they spend more time on their image than their music...every little aspect of their video had to be colour coordinated black and white to make them look more hardcore and angry, whatever happened to the days when each band member had his own style, and the instruments didn't have to match, they had to sound good. I would hate to hear Simple Plan live, it would be more like a fashion show than a concert, they probably just have a catwalk/runway at their concerts, not a stage.

I've seen them live on muchmusic because my brother was watching. They're amazingly sloppy considering how easy their songs are.

Whenever i'm listening to Won't Get fooled Again by The Who when it's the YEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH! part I always turn it up to full volume. Anyone else do this?[/QUOTE]

Best scream in any song. Ever.

I love the Who.
Especially that song.
Does anyone like "Sister Disco" ?

It's ok, but that whole album is fairly unimpressive to me.

Ha, metal can go fuxor itself. Rodger Daltry has the best scream in music :cool:

I lost interest pretty much completely after Quadrophenia. There are a few good tracks in the later years, but I wasn't big into most of it.

Meh, I'm not a fan of the last..three who albums.
Allthough Eminence Front is a fecking amazing song.

That's one of the few good tracks I was refering to. Without Moon on drums I still think of it as a whole different band though.

AC/DC has got to be the best classic rock band out there.

[QUOTE=Gone Shootin']AC/DC has got to be the best classic rock band out there.[/QUOTE]

No they aren't.

they are. they are also the best band ever.

No.

AC/DC weren't about the music, they were about raw agression.
But no ammount of raw agression can make up, for what really was, lack of musical tallent and writing abilty.
I enjoy listening to high voltage though.

Good point.

Yeah, I got Who Are You for christmas, and it was fairly unimpressive. I got it because I absolutly love the title song (one of my favorite Who songs definitly). I find the album too synthy for my tastes.

Ya know what makes up for all of that? Sounding good. They do that very very well.


Would anyone consider The End by The Doors an epic?

AC/DC were originally about the music. I really like their seventies stuff, Bon Scott was great. The music they made with Brian Johnson just seemed too repetative. The thing about AC/DC is that they wanted to play simple, 3 chord trick rock, in the same decade when bands like Pink Floyd were trying to do exactly the opposite. I think they wrote great songs, they never tried to spark a new revolution, or change the direction of music, or blow anyones minds, they just wanted to play Rock n Roll, which I think they did a good job of doing.

edit- I do consider The End an epic, even if it were only like five minutes long, it is still an epic concept/song. Being that it's over ten minutes, I'd say it's surely an epic. And I laugh how you make sure you included the fact that "your brother" was watching Simple Plan, not you.

Well he was. I was insulting him for watching it :p

When I think of AC/DC I think of Bon Scott. Most people think of Brain Johnson. Most people have never heard anything pre highway to hell exept for TNT. Thier Best Albums are Dirty Deed Done Dirt Cheap, Let There Be Rock, Powerage and Jailbreak 74. All Bon Scott. Also Angus stopped playing fast solos when Brian came. In the md 70s he had some fret blazers I tells ya.

Let There Be Rock is my favourite AC/DC album. It seems very slightly influenced by the punk music that was surrounding the mainstream. Most of the songs were done live, and it has a very edgy, high energy sound to it (more than any other album they released). Whole Lotta Rosie has some great solos in it, I really like that whole album. From Powerage and on they kinda settled down, and refined their sound. Live tracks weren't used as much, a lot of overdubbing and studio EQ type stuff was used, so everything was more polished, yet less energetic.

edit- I'm in a predicament. I don't have a final exam tomorrow, I just have to type up a good copy of a story I wrote and hand it in (not a lot of work). My parents just left, and won't be home til like 9 tonight (it's like 2 here). Should I toke up and type up my story while high? Or just keep working til I'm done and then get high?

Eh, do half of it now, take a break and smoke, then do the other half.

[QUOTE=lunch998]Eh, do half of it now, take a break and smoke, then do the other half.[/QUOTE]

Problem solved.

edit- Oh man, Pipe at the Gates of Dawn trips me out. You always forget what a great guitarist Syd Barret is until you listen to his music again. If he stuck around longer and focused more on the guitar in his songs he could have taken Hendrix's place as the premier psychadelic rock guitarist.

^No he couldn't have. Barret's talent wasn't that huge, and I'm sure many other Psychedelic guitarist are pissed that you put him over them.

He was good, but he is no Hendrix.

I honestly do not see why some people regard Barrett as some type of God. He wrote good psychadelic songs, but only has one good album. The band was able to eventually evolve into so much more with Gilmour on guitar and Waters doing most of the writing than I think they would have if Syd had stayed. If Syd continued in the band, it is quite possible they would have faded out with many other late 60s psychadelic bands because they would not have been able to evolve.

But who knows....just my opinion.

Barret isn't very good at guitar. And I'm pretty sure he didn't plan on improving any time soon (according to bandmates.)

[QUOTE=magicbus]Barret isn't very good at guitar. And I'm pretty sure he didn't plan on improving any time soon (according to bandmates.)[/QUOTE]

Yea, I didn't even get to that. Musically he was very limited.

Yea, I don't think he was to overly talented as a guitar player, but PATGOD is so amazing. Is Syd's solo stuff similar to it?

I believe his writing was overrated. He wrote silly/stupid early Beatle like songs. But where they had good melodies and progressed, be didn't really.
