January 22, 2009 at 10:31 am #91387GoldengloveMemberSo, listened to the vids you posted, melx, Swervedriver are pretty sexy (musically, of course), Sugar – couldn’t hear the vocals well enough, so that spoiled it for me, I guess, Love Battery and Eric’s Trip were also pretty awesome. And the other two videos aren’t allowed for playback in my country, or so YouTube says.
So, here’s some other stuff (a few vids are John 5 songs, he was guitarist for Marilyn Manson and is probably the only shredder I can listen to. His fourth album is a big disappointment, though, – too technical and not enough feel)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfWlpbhWDuY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39qmVPC_UQQ – this and the one before are probably my favourite songs of his
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7UDd8Zd1vM – hilarious video and cool melody, too, the tremolo picking is just wow
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVI2m6cbYtI – some sludgy stuff
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5seCugLrhOM – no comment, I guess
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VK8TwsqIEhc – any people who’ve watched Wristcutters: A Love Story? The song appears in the movie. Tom Waits also plays one of the main characters, and it’s just one of the most awesome, romantic films I’ve ever seen
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PVt4Yix02A – got some cool guitar, tooJanuary 22, 2009 at 11:49 am #91394echodeluxeMemberbrand new, colour revolt, radiohead, led zeppelin, the who, death cab for cutie.
theres more, but these are the important ones.
January 22, 2009 at 11:56 am #91395GoldengloveMemberI recently bought a Led Zeppelin BBC Sessions CD – and I adore it. I never liked Led Zeppelins more intricate material – I enjoy their standard blues stuff a lot more, and this album is full of it.
Of course, I still think some of their later songs are genius – No Quarter, Nobody’s Fault but Mine (The acoustic version on the Page & Plant “No Quarter” tour DVD kicks some serious ass), When The Levee Breaks, but still. I’d choose Jimi over Jimmy anytime, hahaJanuary 22, 2009 at 2:42 pm #91405CostchParticipantQuote:I recently bought a Led Zeppelin BBC Sessions CD – and I adore it.

I think it’s the last Zeppelin album I will need, because I already have all of their studio albums and coda.
January 22, 2009 at 2:59 pm #91407GoldengloveMemberDunno, it just sounds very raw, more like jams rather than a real studio album, and that’s the beauty of it. And the second CD, the live one, has a screwed-up version of Stairway to Heaven.

Awesome slide work.

I just wish he did more stuff with the guitar on the album, but overall its really good.

January 24, 2009 at 6:26 pm #91656BlueSteelParticipantSting is an influence of mine, the music that he’s created over the years, i dont really listen to it, but the fact that he’s creating it, i respect that.
January 26, 2009 at 6:31 pm #91924GoldengloveMemberSo, electro-melx, did you listen to your mates’ TW albums?
January 26, 2009 at 8:38 pm #91928electro-melxModeratorQuote:So, electro-melx, did you listen to your mates’ TW albums?better than that, he’s done me copies of ‘rain dogs’ ‘bone machine’ & ‘unused songs’ … I haven’t listened to them get, I’m saving them for when I have time to listen properly.
January 27, 2009 at 2:16 am #91956julianModeratorThat fuzz sound on Goin Out West is so amazing.
January 27, 2009 at 2:30 pm #91979GoldengloveMemberThat’s the first song I heard of his stuff, in Fight Club. I had to pause the movie, rewind it a bit and air-guitar to it
Don’t know anything about unused songs, but Rain Dogs is a classic, perhaps the widest range of styles on a TW album – from blues to polka to rock to pop ballad (in a good way) to gospel to completely crazy things.
And Bone Machine is soooo dark. I love it -
