I LOVE the stoner garage vibe. and Chris was NOT human. technically the best singer from the era of these bands IMO. Mick He found a sweet spot between his chest and head voices and learned how to navigate it smoother than a fresh jar of skippy. I’ve now spent most of my morning trying to do the same…. lol. 2
Segue Myles Posted April 8 Posted April 8 So i am trying to get into more modern rock. Its a struggle... ...then today I discovered Nothing More who have shades of Coheed And Cambria, Thrice, 30 Seconds To Mars and other things I enjoy...all on their debut. I won't lie, the band I suspected Sleep Token could become sound an awful lot like Nothing More! How I never heard of these guys is insane to me. In 2009 I was all about this style, and I LOVE it! 1

They've had some good success over here. I know that they've had a few songs that have gone to number one on the mainstream rock charts. They're opening for Disturbed in the US right now. Nothing I've heard from them has ever stuck with me though. I know who they are but can't remember what any of their songs sound like.

I am really enjoying them a lot, but they genuinely sound like a slightly modernised take on what I was already listening too as a teenager.
bluefox4000 Posted April 8 Posted April 8 Rival sons and Black Crowes. Rival Sons have been in my sight for a while and if you're looking for a band to Scratch that classic rock itch. to me theis is the band. i have a hard with what 's been called rock rivial bands cause so many just sound like pale imitations but Rival sons sound like they're paying homage. while having totally they're own thing. And Black Crowes i just sleep on over and over and why???? i LOVE them. Mick 2

Great energy but I'll be damned I remembered anything beyond the energy they projected. My GF had them on in the car on the way back and I didn't even notice.

I did want to go to that show but I'm probably not going to go to any big arena or stadium shows until the ridiculous ticket prices go down. The tickets I was looking at were in the $130-$160 range. After fees we're talking over $200 bucks for a single ticket. I've been a fan of Disturbed since their first album but they are not a spend $200 on a ticket kind of band for me. I'm also skipping out on seeing Metallica in Syracuse next week with their $320 tickets. I mean come on. People shouldn't have to skip a car payment just to see a couple of shows. The pricing is absolutely out of hand. I have no problem going to see a band I like at a smaller/mid sized venue where the tickets are under $100 apiece. 1
Union 5-3992 Posted April 9 Posted April 9 Really?! I ended up paying $40 for nosebleeds which is about what I paid for Rush 13 years ago. Tickets prices must have come down hard in the last few weeks leading up to the show 1

Tickets prices must have come down hard in the last few weeks leading up to the show I wasn't looking for nosebleeds. I actually wanted to have tickets lower down so it actually felt like I was at a concert. Those ticket prices were right from Ticketmaster. Edited April 9 by J2112YYZ
Segue Myles Posted April 22 Posted April 22 Bruce Springsteen I think I've become known a lot for my love for Pearl Jam, but I won't ever claim they match my Springsteen. Hos discography is not without fault, but the man has created my favourite discography in music. 1
bluefox4000 Posted April 22 Posted April 22 This one is getting me NO credit. but when have a cared? Jimmy Buffett. Yes he's known as the Cheeseburger margaritaville jokester but Aside from his persona. I actually LOVE him as a songwriter. some of his deeper cuts are WONDERFUL. it's just his brand took over the music. Mick 2

Never heard of him.

Especially the 2nd half Changes In Lattitutes Changes in Attitudes (the big breakthrough album. has a few novalty hits but also some beautiful stuff. these two if you like either continue on. if not.....he's not for you. like this is an artist if you like what he's about you'll just fukking fall. if not.......you'll probably never like him.

invisible airwave Posted April 27 Posted April 27 My first time streaming albums from The Replacments this week. I’m currently on Tim. i just went through a lot of Hüsker so I might as well keep on with the theme of Minnesota proto grunge and college rock. 1
Segue Myles Posted April 27 Posted April 27 Bruce Springsteen, Fleetwood Mac and solo Stevie Nicks Plus spinning Journey a lot
bluefox4000 Posted April 27 Posted April 27 Still Jimmy buffett but i've added JD souther and Jackson Browne. Mick 1

The Analog Cub Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Been trying out Chevelle. These guys are...angry. But the riffs are amazing 1

Segue Myles Posted May 5 Posted May 5 Its been a long time since I delved into AOR, but it truly is one of my favourite genres in rock history. So, I have been blasting a lot of Journey, Survivor, Strangeways, Toto, Foreigner, Trillion, Styx alongside Bruce Springsteen and Fleetwood Mac. I just love this style at the moment. A band on the rise for me as well is UFO. 1

Funny thing is SD isn't ANY genre. to me they're just SD ya know, lol. they've dabbled in multiple styles. But i have described them as upside down Toto. take that as you will or Toto is rightside up SD. cause SD came first Mick Edited May 5 by bluefox4000 1
