blueschica Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 What would be your examples for this thread? I'm going with this tune: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhtoRlVUPo0 That song was big back in the day. I think they were a group from Texas. I had a friend that moved there and she couldn't quit talking about them. :codger:Funny, I think I've made mention of this song a few times here in the past... nice to see an acknowledgement finally. Yes they are a Texas group from the '70's. They were managed by Terry Knight, the same guy who managed Grand Funk Railroad. Their first 3 or 4 albums were pretty good until a format change where they became much softer. I remember I liked their sound! The only songs I remember now are DOA and Sable and Pearls but I remember wondering why they weren't more popular in Pittsburgh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexMike Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Black Sabbath - The Writ (especially the beginning). And E5150, which is the intro to The Mob Rules. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

driventotheedge Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 For me it's all the early Alice like several folks have already said. Dead Babies, whew. How about NIB by Sabbath? The lyrics yes, but the tune itself is a pretty straightforward rocker IMO.Agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember thinking how space age and slightly psychedelic it sounded back then. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steevo Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Lou Reed - lots of options here - but "Harry's Circumcision" is pretty bleak and unpleasant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbine Freight Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 A lot of early Alice Cooper - Dead Babies, I Love The Dead, Raped and Freezin', and others. Amazing how a man that wrote and performed such songs turned out to be an Ozzie Nelson at heart. The Ballad of Dwight Fry is one of his most unnerving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of Welcome To My Nightmare is straight up creepy too. Cooper is fantastic at giving off that vibe with so much of his material. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
