OT: Music Thread

[stranger34]

Nice, enjoy yourself. I'm usually against getting tickets for bigger acts and dropping $30+ on "additional fees" alone, but I couldn't pass up seeing Tool. Instrumentally, they're still on point, however, I was a little disappointed with MJK lyrically and vocally. Fear Inoculum is solid but probably my least favorite album from them, and that's only because their prior albums are so damn good.

I've seen Tool twice and A Perfect Circle 3 times. It's always a solid show when MJK and co. are involved, but I do think MJK's vocals have lost a bit off of the fastball. Skipped on this tour having seen them recently at Governor's Ball a couple of years back.

My hypothesis is that Danny Carey pushed for this album to showcase that he's still a bad ass MFer at age 58. He was the star of the show Saturday night. All-time performance.

Between the music, the imagery in the background, etc., I was feeling preeettttttyyyyy good.

Anybody else in the northeast in the 90s? Didn't it seem like Live was playing somewhere around you for free like once a week? I saw them like 10 times and I don't even like them. They played on the lawn in front of my student union once and I swear nobody stopped and watched. People were just like, "I need to go get my books, wtf is this?"

I actually saw live this past august at jones beach. I really enjoyed it.

Going to Barclays next week. I just saw prices and they’re pretty nuts. They weren’t that bad 2 months ago

How was it? Im taking an amtrak up to mohegan in a few hrs for tonight. Im pretty excited for it.

I heard killing joke was kinda lame.

Listened to the Pretenders' first album 'Pretenders' - masterpiece.

Apology if I posted this before. Although not my favorite Pretenders song, this version showcases Chrissie's voice more than any song I've heard. That vocal build up from 2:47 to 2:53 kills me every time.

Thanks for posting that, Chrissie Hynde is awesome. Personally, she was better in...

To the dumpster?

 

[Bones45]

To the dumpster?

So far? Yes.

(And it pains me to say this. Aside from the hits..its almost unlistenable...)

 

[Richie Daggers Crime]

I hear you, I'm always like "Those Puddle of Mudd hits are so phenomenal, the rest of their output is just a shade weaker, you know?" At least, that's what I tell people.

Hopefully they get that phish stench out of the coliseum before the next game.

Anyone use Spotify and get their year end stuff? It's always sort of surprising to me.

You mean the playlists they make based off your most listened to stuff?

 

[Richie Daggers Crime]

The wrapped or whatever they call it. I don't even know if it's cool or whatever. Spotify sends it to me at the end of the year.

This is great. First of all, I almost forgot when the Letterman house band would play with the musical guests back in the day. Secondly, J Mascis' reaction when the house guitarist throws some lead into the rhythm is hilariously gratifying.

Always loved this clip.

I saw Dinosaur Jr. at the SUNY Binghamton Student Center back in the day, in the middle of a blizzard. They were the loudest band I've ever heard. They played Sludgefeast and it was so suffocatingly loud that I thought the sound was going to gain sentience. My ears rang for a solid week.

I saw them outside in Central Park and it was still one of the loudest shows I've ever been at!
