Have you ever considered that no one cares?

Statikk HDM · #**182** 07-08-2006, 05:37 PM

Well SHEEyit then. Nobody posts in this friggin' thing anymore. I tried and failed at necroing a 2 day dead thread, so sue me.

I think the new Muse album is awesomekool. Though it doesn't sound like it's their most recent album, it doesn't sound nearly as professional as Absolution did... Sounds like it could be their first one. Don't get me wrong, it's great, but anyone getting me?

Fez · #**184** 07-09-2006, 01:42 AM

Yeah, it lacks the punch that Absolution had. It sounds like everything they have done all in one.

And I prefered the old versions of Exo-Politics and Assassin. EP had a much better guitar part that didn't copy the bassline and Assassin was 5 minutes long with a tapping solo and the whole middle bit (where the song changed completley) has been cut out. Baaad Muse! Stop going for the commercialness!

I'm gonna try it again.
Steve Miller Band, anybody?
Rush?
Zappa?
Beastie Boys?
Does anybody listen to these bands or have an opinion or are you just going to continue to talk about the Eels without me?
Anyhow, Fax, I bought a Muse album and it was pretty damn good. Absolution, I think.
Diamond Head?
King Diamond?
King Crimson? Anybody? ANYBODY???

I'm a Rush fan.
I used to like Beastie Boys.
I've got a Diamond Head Best Of and it's good shit. Too bad their career died so early (I don't want to acknowledge the later stuff).
I want to hear some King Crimson, as so many great bands cite them as an influence, but I've only heard 21st Century Schizoid Man. I think I would like them, if I could find some of their albums!

On Muse: Although I have to admit, I don't have their first two (Can't find them either) I do know a lot of the stuff off them, and I have Hullabulloo, but it doesn't impress me as much as Black Holes and Revelations does.
Contrary to your opinions, Fez and Super Munch, I think it has way more punch. Not to mention it's far more cohesive than Absolution was. I think Absolution is a great album of individual songs, but BHAR beats it in terms of flow and it feels more like all songs were written to be together. Not to mention it seems more mature than their other stuff.
My two cents.

Fez · #**186** 07-09-2006, 08:18 AM

Its more mature. Thats for sure. Absolution is more in your face though, its louder if you know what I mean. It has about 1 slow song that doesnt build up.

Statikk HDM · #**187** 07-09-2006, 11:07 AM

I was surprised at how up front and loud it was, it wasn't what I was expecting. I really like Stockholm Syndrom after that. For somebody who bought the CD at K-Mart for about 9 bucks and liked it what would be the next album to get?

Rich · #**188** 07-09-2006, 01:28 PM

I like Origin of Symmetry the best I think. Showbiz is fun.

Leto · #**189** 07-09-2006, 01:32 PM

Yes, Showbiz is fun, but mostly just that. Though I like them Escape and Unintended tracks. I can't stand Fillip.

OANST · #**190** 07-09-2006, 01:37 PM

Dan Zanes is the shit. He used to be the front man for the Del Fuegos back in the 80's but now he makes childrens music. It's the coolest childrens music ever made, though. Check him out.

I think its all rather fun. The piano on Sunburn is most fun.

Muscle Museum is good, Hate this and I'll love you is good. Its an album where every song is generally good.

Leto · #**192** 07-09-2006, 01:50 PM

Well, if this is a general music topic, check this out. I'm just such a sucker for tiny guitars. IT'S ALL HIPPY LIKE

Yeah, all the songs are good, few are great. :P Some are iffishly good, like Sober and Uno. But yes, still all goodish.

Rich · #**193** 07-09-2006, 02:03 PM

Whereas Origin has quite a few moments of greatness.

Fez · #**194** 07-10-2006, 03:58 AM

Anyoneheard Thom Yorkes new album yet? I'm listening to the previews on itunes now. Can't wait for my next paycheck!

Fez · #**195** 07-12-2006, 03:15 AM

Due to the new of the Late Syd Barret, any Pink Floyd fans here?

Statikk HDM · #**196** 07-12-2006, 09:43 AM

I never liked them that much but at my job the radio station would always play the Floyd Fix from 11 to 11:30 so I'd crank it on the car ride home.

Rich · #**197** 07-12-2006, 12:02 PM

Strange you should mention them, I was listening to High Hopes while strolling through a field earlier, Floyd are awesome.

Fez · #**198** 07-13-2006, 02:26 PM

Indeed they are. Wish You Were Here is fantastic. Best 5 song album I have :P

I am yet to get Animals.

Pulp? Anyone?

Rich · #**199** 07-13-2006, 02:31 PM

Fez, I'm interested in purchasing a Pulp album, care to direct me to something accessible and/or their best work?

Fez · #**200** 07-13-2006, 02:32 PM

Different Class was how they got "big" in the Britpop era. Its also the only album I have by them :P

It's bloody good though, every track is a gem. I'm getting This Is Hardcore soon so I will tell you what its like.

Crustacean Freak · #**201** 07-13-2006, 11:03 PM

Call me crazy but I like jazz. It's very comforting. I'm not any sort of heavy rocker or anything like that, but jazz is great. It helps me concentrate, and I love the sound of it. I play the alto saxophone, so I know a little bit on how the jazz scales work, and they are fun to play. It's very much a free-form genre of music.

Oh, and please excuse my spelling/capitalization, my keyboard is messed up, and I need to replace it.

Leto · #**202** 07-13-2006, 11:27 PM

What particular 'jazz scale'? Melodic minor or pentatonic? Actually, I might be thinking blues. I've confused myself.

Pray tell!

I hate all rock and pop. Darn it, I am so unique. Why can't I like what everyone else likes?

Fez · #**205** 07-14-2006, 08:57 AM

Get the fuck outta my thread.

Um, I like Opera. That is a type of music you know.

Fez · #**207** 07-14-2006, 08:59 AM

First warning!

If this is your thread, how come one of the choices is Opera? Therfore I am allowed to like Opera.
EDIT: Oh, and this ain't your thread.

Fez · #**209** 07-14-2006, 09:02 AM

Stoping going offtopic!

Second Warning!

Anyway, Supergrass anyone?

Talking about Opera in a music thread is not going off topic. Anyone else like Opera?
