Skywarp! Posted October 30, 2004 Report Posted October 30, 2004 Ben Folds Five. Even though it's cool to hate Nirvana and Sublime these days, I'm curious to know what kind of stuff they'd be putting out right now.

1234-5678 Posted October 30, 2004 Report Posted October 30, 2004 Same goes for Shannon Hoon Were you guys aware that Shannon Hoon was Axl's boy from his hometown in Indiana and that Axl got Blind Melon their big break? Hoon also co-sang "Don't Cry".
Guest ian. Posted October 30, 2004 Report Posted October 30, 2004 Same goes for Shannon Hoon Were you guys aware that Shannon Hoon was Axl's boy from his hometown in Indiana and that Axl got Blind Melon their big break? Hoon also co-sang "Don't Cry". Yeah, I knew that. One thing I didn't like about Don't Cry is that his singing was so low on that track.
Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Posted October 30, 2004 Report Posted October 30, 2004 I wish Cream woulda stayed together longer...I guess. But then we wouldn't have gotten Derek and the Dominos. I wouldn't have midned seeing the Band in their ancient greatness. They were quite marvelous.
Zack Malibu Posted October 30, 2004 Report Posted October 30, 2004 Stabbing Westward. Although lead singer Chris Hall recently formed The Dreaming out in California, so hopefully they break out soon enough.
B. Brian Brunzell Posted October 31, 2004 Report Posted October 31, 2004 Chistopher Hall formed a new band? NICE.
Zack Malibu Posted October 31, 2004 Report Posted October 31, 2004 www.thedreamingonline.com I actually got the link off StabbingWestward.com, which is still updated every so often with what the guys are doing now. Hall's new band kicks ass, their website has a link to their myspace profile, and there are 4 songs you can listen to. They're selling the EP for $5 as well, so I'm gonna pick that up ASAP.
5_moves_of_doom Posted October 31, 2004 Report Posted October 31, 2004 (edited) I haven't really been alive long enough to name many picks... but I'll choose a few anyway, and then a few that I feel like I miss even though I wasn't necessarily around during their peak... Pavement The Ramones The Jesus and Mary Chain Joe Strummer Rage Against the Machine Tool (in album releasing form) The Spice Girls Faith No More Weezer (the old Weezer, I mean) Echo and the Bunnymen (good) REM Talking Heads Edited October 31, 2004 by 5_moves_of_doom
Use Your Illusion Posted October 31, 2004 Report Posted October 31, 2004 Axl Rose and Michael Jackson.
moral suasion Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 Thank you 5 moves of doom for mentioning Rage Against the Machine. I was shocked and disappointed that a two page thead on this topic had no mention of them on the first page. Rage was the best band to come out of the 90s. If I could choose between seeing the Beatles live or Rage live, I would choose Rage, and I like the Beatles more than I like colby cheese, and I LOVE colby cheese.
nl5xsk1 Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 Government Issue Phish (well, it's still too recent for me to 'miss' them but it won't be long until I miss seeing them live) Black Flag Flipper

I think "You Know You're Right" was a nice indiction of where Nirvana was going to go. A little more rock based then punk based.
Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 Considering You Know Your Right was about 25% completed upon its release, I don't think it was an accaurate portrayal of where the band was going. Hell, the song probably would've stayed as a demo.
Red Baron Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 Faith No More Alice In Chains Motley Crue The Smiths STP (Velvet Revolver doesn't cut) Stevie Ray Vaughn Pink Floyd

Hell, the song probably would've stayed as a demo. Ever hear the live version? No. But bands often test out songs live to see how they sound, it doesn't necessarily mean that is how they would've wanted it to sound recorded.

It's still an interesting indication of their possible direction. And I liked it better then most of In Utero.

I think "You Know You're Right" was a nice indiction of where Nirvana was going to go. A little more rock based then punk based. I just found that song very annoying, especially his vocals, and really, would it really matter if Kurt didn't die, I mean most likely the band would have faded away, and he probably would have died of an overdose.
1234-5678 Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 He was quitting Nirvana anyway, you're right.
B. Brian Brunzell Posted November 4, 2004 Report Posted November 4, 2004 Add The Pogues to my list of bans that I miss.
haws bah gawd Posted November 4, 2004 Report Posted November 4, 2004 Far and away I miss Alice and Chains. I would even settle for new material from Jerry Cantrell. I enjoyed Degredation Trip a lot. I also miss Candlebox. I have the cd with You and Far Behind, and the whole thing is great.
converge241 Posted November 5, 2004 Report Posted November 5, 2004 nice update on Hall/the dreaming/SW i miss stabbing westward but not the last album and him constantly pining over that one girl (amy?) i mean come on i used to slum around in heartache for a while but yeesh

"Haunting Me" is my favorite song from them. Wish they were still around.
PsychoDriver Posted November 5, 2004 Report Posted November 5, 2004 The Posies Yes! also off the top of my head: Alice In Chains Lush Letters to cleo Guns N' Roses Jellyfish sane Michael Jackson The Three O'Clock Folk Implosion Faith No More and a bunch others, no one else would care about
Corey_Lazarus Posted November 6, 2004 Report Posted November 6, 2004 Danzig-era Misfits(like most of you didn't see THAT one coming), Stuck Mojo, and Green Jelly.
