Goran, I don't recall anything about classics in the first post. And slamming other peoples musical taste is opening your taste up for criticism. I'd say several of your choices are either crusty or outright lame. W.A.S.P. headless children is wayyy cheese, Mean Man is he only decent song on the CD. I saw them on that tour at the Disco Circus in Manheim. Worst concert ever, they lip synced & Chris Homes was to drunk to play. Don't tell me you didn't listen to butt rock in the 80s, Shout at the Devil probable started the whole disgraceful movement. Jar of Flies IMO is the lamest of all the Alice in Chains CDs & how do you get any cheesier than sailing the seven seas of cheese?;) :p

I totally agree concerning Slayer (although I do quite like "war ensemble" on SITA). Once they lost Lombardo (Grip Inc? What was he thinking..........) they went down hill, fast. I do really like "God Hates Us All" though, not like the old days, but yahoo. I hope this doesn't mean I'm getting old.

NO, I haven't gotten the DVD yet, but its on my list.

I like Venom. I much prefer King Diamond/Mercyful Fate, but I dig Venom too.

No opinion on Audioslave or Staind because I won't listen to them. Just not my taste.

Metallica..........they lost me when Cliff died.

STP. Isn't that a motor oil?

Motley Crue. You know, I like "Too Fast For Love" and "Shout at the Devil". Lame? Maybe. Started "hair bands"? Most likely. But I like them, I really do. I don't know why.

White Zombie. Didn't care for his movie either.

I would rather have my fingernails pulled one by one than listen to anything "country". Or "rap". Or "jazz". Or "pop". Yuck.

But I like blowers and carbs too. Shows how much I know. :D

Pete

Oh come on, Shout at the Devil ROCKS! Sure it's cheese, but it's a hell of a lot of fun.

Also, about W.A.S.P. You gotta the crotch shooting fire, LOL!

This should make you very happy then. Slayer is on tour right now,.,.,.,and guess who is back. DAVE, yes, Dave Lombardo is back on the skins, and will be on the new album.:eek: :cool: :D

MJ's Thriller.....HEHEHEHE

ACDC...first album whatever the name of it was. "It's a long way to the top if you wana rock and roll"

How bout Richie Blackmores ...Rainbow which came outa Deep Purple.."Hush"

Or

Mountain...Mountain ...."Missippi Queen"


or

Mott the Hoople...Ian Hunter... "All the young dudes" "All the way to Memphis"..... Mick Ralphs went on to....

Bad Company.... which was formed outa Free.

or

Jefferson Airplane...Volunteers....."up against the wall mthr fker" which is what they are telling MJ these days

Tabs, You reminded of a few more favorites....

Deep Purple / Machine Head
Jefferson Starship / Red octopus
Santana / Moonflower

That's pretty damn funny! :D Didn't Al Jourgensen put together a country band at one point?

Near as I can tell, Rob Zombie's whole schtick is to be as cheesy as possible. Therein lies the beauty. ;)

I think it's just fun. If I want to expand my brain I just cue the Beethoven playlist on my iPod.

We built this city on rock and Roll....even Gracie Slick says not... I could never stand the Starship. But the Airplane was a differnet story.

Santana OK

Deep Purple...After 'Hush' oh well.... Like the Floyd...Dark Side of the Moon was the nadir...they became PRETENSIOUS...Artsy Fartsy Commercial...

Anything by Morphine
Houses of the holy, Led Zep

STP!!!

For me, it is a class of one with Floyd's "Dark Side."

It's the ONE album that I don't think I will ever get tired of, and can listen to from front to back on a semi-regular basis. There is something truly magical about it, but most importantly, for me it is very evocative of many stages of my life.

To me, others that go above and beyond the call of duty:

Sex Pistols "Nevermind the Bollocks" - Really groundbreaking, original, and most of all, so authentic. The Pistols burned shortly but brightly - it couldn't have been any other way for them.

Pet Sounds. So reflective of one man's passion and pain.

The middle year U2 albums - Unforgettable Fire and Joshua Tree. Both very inspired albums.

Buck Satan..
I have not seen Al in a few years. Those were some very bad good times for me.

Last I heard, Al was in rehab. I heard one of the guys from Ministry OD'd on heroin. Although that could just be the guy from Skinny Puppy who died a few years ago.

PF / Animals

Starship's Red Octopus was well before "We built this city on RR".

my three desert-island records are

The Beatles THE BEATLES (white album)
Pink Floyd THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON
Radiohead OK COMPUTER

I know, I know, I might as well pick Beethoven -but hey, call me a cliche, I really think they are the best 3 albums ever made.

Jared:
Actually i believe two guys from Ministry died, as far as i remember...guitarist from Psalm69 era slith his throat and other one OD-ed (i think)

Speaking about big Al, i saw him both in person (friend works as backstage "take-hand of artists guy) and in concert this summer and he sure looked realtivly fresh (for being Al). Don't as me how. He's clean they say....

Gig was absolutely amazing...and i mean it. Much better than his previous from "lay lay lady" -95 "high on stage" phase.

5axis: you know him in person?

They really are the best three.
