It's been a few weeks since we've had a music thread. And it always seems most of them go off course within 3 posts anyway. But I figured I would attempt to start another. The last thread someone did was about meaningful songs so I thought we could do this one about underrated bands or groups. Past or present. My first example is the Germs. Great band but didn't achieve much success. Granted that was the way they wanted it but non-the-less underrated.
Another random music thread
- Thread starter Floptical
- Start date
nothing a man and woman do together is gay, period...just ask fly and ape
and for secret gems of bands:
morphine(vaguely secret)
soul coughing(vaguely secret)
olivia tremor control(very secret...think pink floyd meets the beatles but cooler than both imo)
You are not a man if you think anal is nasty.
Anyways, My Chemical Romance and 30 Seconds to Mars are rockin' my boat.
Ya it's mainstream.. so what?
Oh nooooo it isn't
Some of my favorite groups: New Order, Fatboy Slim, No Doubt (before Gwen went solo). All of them have put out a ton of gold, and all of their best-of CDs are amazing.
they were supposed to have a new cd out like a year or two ago but I don't know if it ever materialized...I got into them living in athens in the '90's
My friend Christi has some of their stuff. She's from out yonder your way in Atlanta. I dig them.
I've been listening to the Greenhornes and the Black Keys lately. Go get an emusic account. You'll find because of the subscription based model, you force yourself to search through what they have. I now have over 50 albums sitting in my saved queue waiting for my monthly allocation to recharge. I'm finding all kinds of good stuff there. If anyone wants a referral, I can get you 25 downloads for free.
Edit : oh yeah, all the songs are mp3's ripped with LAME's standard profile. No DRM + good rips = tits
