Gugny Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 Another Rick Rubin masterpiece. Rubin is a genius and this album is pure rock and roll. I love every !@#$ing second of it.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 For a kid with ADHD AND a hyperactive thyroid, this was about the only music that fit how my brain worked at the time. On 2/10/2018 at 1:40 PM, dhg said: Excellent album but before my time.
dickleyjones Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 some Canadian content: Hayden - everything i long for https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzQY7yRDil0 (this was the 'single', album not on youtube) Rheostatics - Introducing Happiness https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqIyaJiwNys&list=PL76ADA3795478B841 Sloan - Smeared https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RHf07SA3vg&list=PLD9FNg1JJ-NmGxvoyXq0HK27z7ODRRUnv (their first full album, they went in a totally different direction after this) and perhaps the most obscure: Sianspheric - Somnium https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dz-DpzIn4Mw (Hamilton, ON's shoegaze) and this, on repeat, ad infinitum (including my 'our song'):

swnybillsfan Posted February 25, 2018 Posted February 25, 2018 this was my favorite band in high school. the dark and brooding melodies, the grungy chugging of the guitar, and Layne Staley's incredible voice. this album was the predecessor to the Jar of Flies, and i just loved the stripped down essence of it.
row_33 Posted March 27, 2018 Posted March 27, 2018 On 2/10/2018 at 12:10 PM, Chef Jim said: Yes. But this one is a bit more of a challenge. Post an album from your high school days that is a bit obscure that you listened to a lot! That England/Wales exchange trip was big fun in the early 80s, their girls were vampires, anything for a Canadian flag pin... Some albums that came back with us that didn't quite make it over here.... Adam still sounds good (never repeated though), the Motorhead/Girlschool EP was in the stack and shows how one could cross styles without a thought in the early 80s.
row_33 Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 How about the reverse effect, where all the skids and goofs and smoking areas losers, and some decent people glommed onto The Wall and Springsteen, the biggest fabricated mind-rot in pop music history? And you tried to put up with it....
swnybillsfan Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 because i have daughters, i have been subjected to mass amounts of ed sheeran. you know what? i like a lot of it. and some of it, i like a lot.
row_33 Posted March 30, 2018 Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) This rocked, the remaining stuff got weaker and weaker, intentionally horrible covers for one album was the end of it. No more LSD for me, I've met the man from Galilee.... Edited March 30, 2018 by row_33
Turk71 Posted March 31, 2018 Posted March 31, 2018 Zappa 'over nite sensation' my buddys garage in SB was our clubhouse and we had a kick ass car stereo that ran off a toy race track inverter. Marantz power booster and 4 Jensen triaxial speakers. His dad was cool and let us drink and smoke. Good times. We had around 25 8track tapes to listen to.
SinceThe70s Posted April 9, 2018 Posted April 9, 2018 Michael Schenker Group, One Night At Budokan. Always thought this recording captured the big sound of a live band really well.
