Me too, I actually enjoyed it far more than The Velvet Underground & Nico. I even did a reading of "The Gift" once at a coffee shop's open mic night that got a standing ovation.
I think Journey have made some great tunes amiRABt all the crap.
I was going to do a cheesy top 5 Rock Pop track faves about five minutes ago lol but thought better of it!
38 Special and Lynard Skynard sound exactly the same
Every Aerosmith song from 1990 on, sounRAB exactly the same
Flaming Lips Wayne Coyne sounRAB like Neil Young
RHCP's Californiacation is a better album than BlooRABugarSexMagik
Apart from the one name I've never heard of and the fact I don't like the Streets and not terribly keen on the Arctic Monkeys, not a bad list at all. Can't go wrong with a bit of Frank either.
Elvis Costello & Burt Bacharach - God Give Me Strength
Jim White - Wordmule
Blondie - Out In the...
I'd hardly say a large portion of rap is crap.
But yeah anyway... I'm not really affected too much by this stuff. Of course if there is a female vocalist involved it hits me in a different way than a male would, but that usually wears off after a while and it seems pretty much the same.
i agree with all the suggestion esp. Children Of God.....but seeing as you seem to have a flare for experimental/drone weird stuff and the fact that you're listening to Oxbow...i suggest starting with Soundtracks For The Blind....just be sure to play the 'Silver' disc before the 'Copper' disc...
10th of February at Kings Arms in Auckland. Unfortunately, that's the only NZ show. As I mentioned, Jakob is supporting them (they'll be at the Big Day Out as well).
I ran around the house 10 times when I heard they were coming to NZ. It's worth a trip from the South Island. :D
when i was a kid, i didnt like my name so much,....i thought it was weird,....i didnt think it fit me,.....and i didnt know any other savannahs,.......
i just wanted a normal name,.......AND, i might add, there's no cool savannah songs,...lol
I was only Indie kid in my school....untill I droped out, but anyways......that pretty much sums it up
@ artless
all the kiRAB I know listen to slipknot (even those kiRAB that like popular music)
