I agree with Zamo... 'brimful of asha' was cool
I'm no big Foghat fan, but I do like 'slow ride'
But you for sure are more diversified than me... 'Stand by me'??? Seriously? :eek: :)

Liked that. How about these from Metallica:
One
Enter Sandman
I especially like 'Enter Sandman' and 'One' too, even if the music in the 'One' video above is interrupted by... well, the video.

man the One video is so scary... I really don't like watching it :p Enter Sandman is one of my Metallica favs, along with Fade to Black

Hi mew...

Yeup.
LF: 'fatman in the bathtub', 'oh Atlanta' to name a few.
ARS: 'so into you', and 'spooky' are great.

How's the new 4-legged feline addition project coming?

good stuff! those bring back fun time memories. I spent a few energetic nights in Atlanta from time to time a long time ago...

I guess I should do kitty update in 'cat thread'...thnx for asking:)

there was a time were music became great. great bands apperared. those that are still playing are the only actual bands i like.

1988-appetite for destruction.
1991-nevermind
1992-violator
1994-ten
1993-pablo honey
1989-bleach
1991-blood, sugar,sex, magic.
1993-in utero

i awas just a baby back then :(

there's also led zepplin, beatles, dire straits (as older bands).

this is music. this has meaning.
today's "new bands" are disgusting. i can't enjoy a single music made by one of them. why? they sound as garbage.

special thanks to RHCP (californication, by the way and stadium arcadium), pearl jam, depeche mode, radiohead, and some foo fighters albums to make the only actual music that i can and love to listen.

That's nonsense. You may need to look deeper because rock is not that popular these days, but talented bands are still coming out every year.

As for me, I'm in a "rediscovering Deftones" phase. They were truly good, unlike most of their peers at the time.

any recommendation?
ah... muse. they have talent. but that last album..

there's any new guy that makes you feel whatever you feel when listening jimmy page, slash, frusciante, mark knoffler, satriani, eric clapton or even kurt cobain? not forgetting the father of them all? those guitars had soul, voice, feelings. the others that weren't making magic with them were rapping them. that made a nice sound.

you have good taste ;) But I wouldn't say all contemporary bands are bad, some young Belgian ones make very nice songs :)

btw you know this version of brother in arms? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vUDmFjWgVo

you have to see the money for nothing version with knofler sting clapton and (if a am not mistaken) phil collins. sting really fails in the beginning but then does a good job.

i believe that i also saw it in the youtube.

i have discographies from nirvana RDCP radiohead pearl jam and GNR. i also had beatle's and led zepplin's discographies but since i have an old sh*tty hp and i am saving to buy a macbook pro i had to delete them. obviously i kept some albums and as soon as i get my new computer i am going to pay for that music. it's the right thing to do after all.

dire straits are great. if there's one guy that has his own guitar sound\feel, that's mark.

i love that kind of music but there's one band that with time i learned to love... it wasn't nothing special at the beginning but once i started to listen entire albums and not particular songs i just fell in love with that music. depeche mode. download a HQ concert and watch them live. they are amazing!!!! even stephen hawkings loves them! lol

RHCP are possibly the worst band on the face of the planet. Seriously, they needed to go the hell away around about 1994 and they'd be remembered as one of the greats. Instead we get this tepid radio-rock, with Anthony Kiedis' appalling lyrics and a bit of ever-more embarrassing slap bass.

Guns 'n' Roses seemed to be part of the antidote to hair metal, but then bands like Helmet showed up and proved that they were just another arm of it. Helmet stripped heavy music down to its bare essentials, and with no pageantry, no show and no stupid pyrotechnics, just blasted people in the face. The only band that had been having hits with "metal" in the 80s that survived with their dignity intact was Faith No More.

Satriani belongs in the same category as Steve Vai or Yngwie Malmsteen. How can you say they have soul, when all they do is show off their techniques? If I wanted to see a bunch of pretentious idiots slinging their hands all over the fretboard I'd listen to Yes.

The best guitarist of the last 30 years has been Johnny Marr, of the Smiths. Listen to some of his guitar lines. Everything sounds so simple, so catchy. You wonder how on earth these amazing pop melodies had never been written before! And then you try to play them, and you know - because nobody could play them. But where most guitarists would have turned that into a solo, Marr was happy just to make that the hook of the song.

If we're talking great guitarists putting heart, soul and feeling into the sound, then I nominate Dave Gilmour from Pink Floyd. The "Comfortably Numb" solo is perhaps the greatest of all time.

I also argue that Dave Navarro is a better guitarist than John Frusciante. In the Chilis he sucked, but listen to Jane's Addiction's "Three Days", he'll blow your mind. They were much better than most rock bands in the late 80s, Jane's. They were legendary, eclectic and insane. Sadly, multiple reunions have dulled their power and cheapened their history the same way as Chilis albums as they go on into their 40s only moves us further and further away from the days when they were vibrant, controversial and exciting.

go to youtube, slane castle 2003. watch greatness.
RDCP were mediocre until frusciante came even if their first guitar player already was a genius. however frusciante was much more than guitar, apparently.

proof? their album with navarro (mother's milk??) is seen as a huge floop. also, navarro was pathetic back then. californication stadium arcadium and by the way are considered masterpieces. their sound reached a new level since 99, even their live performances provide possitive and amazed critics all over the world.

anthony is the first to say that he is far from having a great voice. but for sure that he has the lirics and he is the soul of that band. "professional" opinion says that frusciante is -unlike navarro- one of the best and i totally agree. chad is viewed as the 5th best drummer of all times (ah..that right foot) and flea as his own style.

stadium arcadium didn't had a californication but overall it his only matched by glories of the past. that album in the present music scene is amazing.

guns n' roses had the potential to be the best rock band ever. at least we have 3 great cds. helmet are a joke compared to GNR sucess\popularity back then. their situation had nothing to do with other bands with maybe the exception of nirvana.

i don't like copy cats. i like guys that bring up something new. hendrix, page, knofler, clapton, frusciante and now bellamy. those(with more one or two) will be remembered as the teachers and others as students.

your paragraph about satriani made me think that you were talking about edge.
