Corey_Lazarus Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 I can't wait until they do a tour with a setlist spanning ALL of the albums. Like, their 2 favorite songs per album. Be a long fucking show, but worth every penny.
Kinetic Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 Do you know what's been floating around my brain for the last few days? I'M SO HOOD!
Kinetic Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 IF YOU CAN FEEL ME PUT YOUR HANDS UP! (Hood) I'M SO HOOD!
Kinetic Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 I'm often overwhelmed by the urge to type out the lyrics of whatever I'm listening to at the time. Typically in all caps. Is this a threadworthy idea or a comment that doesn't warrant a thread? Only time will tell. In the meantime... I CAN'T WAIT TO FEEL YOUR LOVE TONIGHT! (I can't wait...to feel your loving tonight) I CAN'T WAIT TO FEEL YOUR LOVE TONIGHT!
PUT THAT DICK IN MY MOUTH! Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 I vote threadworthy idea.
Kinetic Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 That picture in your avatar looks an awful lot like Irish "American Idol" contestant Carly Smithson. See:
Kinetic Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 I d/led the Thin Lizzy album Jailbreak a few weeks ago. It was disappointingly short on brain-rattling rock shit. It doesn't even have the most rocking song about a jailbreak: 10cc claims that with the highly-recommended "Rubber Bullets." The title track is a fine tune, though, and "The Boys are Back in Town" is a quality song, despite being played the fuck out on classic rock and oldies radio.
Kinetic Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON NOW TOUCH ME BABE! CAN'T YOU SEE THAT I AM NOT AFRAID! WHAT WAS THAT PROMISE THAT YOU MADE! The fuck is this doing on my computer?
Kinetic Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 I'm listening to Jailbreak right now. Better than I initially judged it to be. That Stephen Thomas Erlewine was right.
Kinetic Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 The sheer force of Van Halen's cover of "You Really Got Me" makes me wonder about my direction in life before today. What did I think I was doing?
Kinetic Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 I have been awake for three days now. I've been drinking cans of Pabst Blue Ribbon and listening to Van Halen and message boarding all day today. I'm going to Seattle on Thursday to visit my family (excepting my brother, who's in Iraq). I talked to them on the phone today and was too drunk to affect anything other than my normal social persona, which is just a whirlwind of irreverence and self-aggrandizement and general cocksuckery. I'm listening to In Rainbows right now. Shit's on.
Kinetic Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 I recall that I spoke to my neighbors earlier. I confessed that I frequently refer to them as "those assholes in 3" and deride their Literature degrees. I asked them for beard-grooming tips. I'm experimenting with my facial hair right now. Fucking Radiohead, man. "All I Need" is gorgeous. "Faust Arp" is tossed-off but amazing, like a great McCartney Beatles tune. "Reckoner" makes me wish that I had more seriously pursued learning an instrument.
Kinetic Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 I initially hated "House of Cards." The song is smarter than I am. It has revealed itself to me.
Kinetic Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 I still hate this "Videotape" song. Remember the pre-Kid A live recordings of "Motion Picture Soundtack"? Much better than the album version. Oh, and "True Love Waits." This band is better than Gwar. My 16 year old mind was right on that much.
Kinetic Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 I actually met some douche from pitchforkmedia.com at a Radiohead show in Italy back in 2000. I mentioned how I felt that the bears would figure heavily into the artwork for Kid A. He blew me off! There was a shooting star during "Pyramid Song." This was probably the greatest moment of my life.
Kinetic Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 I'm listening to Kid A several years after the fact in Athens, Georgia. This is probably not the greatest moment in my life. It is something less.
Kinetic Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 The Dave Attell series Insomiac suggests a level of fun that is not present with the actual affliction. Do 'Head heads remember a song called "How To Disapper Completely and Never Be Found." The album version of that sucks.
PLAGIARISM! Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 So yeah, I normally like to dig in when Radiohead release something that isn't 100% brilliant cos I live with two insufferable Radio Heads, but In Rainbows is really, really good. Sigh.
PUT THAT DICK IN MY MOUTH! Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 I initially hated "House of Cards." The song is smarter than I am. It has revealed itself to me. Most of the rest of In Rainbows has grown on me but I refuse to ever concede that "House of Cards" is anything other than total shit.
Guest (Loggins Name) Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 I get the same feeling from "Reckoner" that you do, Danny. It makes me want to play the drums. The only song from the album that makes their pantheon of awesong songs. I love "Down Is the New Up," and I wish that would've made the cut. Also great drums. "House of Cards" is a shitpile. It doesn't go anywhere. It just goes. I don't think I'm allowed to discuss this album anymore.
Bruiser Chong Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 The Speakerboxxx intro has one of the best bass grooves to grace a hip-hop album in many years.
PUT THAT DICK IN MY MOUTH! Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 "House of Cards" is a shitpile That song could be the best thing Radiohead ever did musically (it's not, obviously) and the lyrics would still ruin it.
Red Baron Posted April 4, 2008 Report Posted April 4, 2008 Beasts of Burden is my favourite Stones tune. However Ruby Tuesday is fairly awful.
Spaceman Spiff Posted April 4, 2008 Report Posted April 4, 2008 Pearl Jam is doing a 10-date East Coast tour this June, which I'm sure is of no interest to anyone here except me. Got 3 tickets for their stop in Camden!
King Kamala Posted April 4, 2008 Report Posted April 4, 2008 Can any of you guys recommend me some Curtis Mayfield and/or The Impressions stuff. I downloaded an Impressions album a couple weeks ago on a whim and really enjoyed it, I also like what little stuff I've heard of Mayfield's solo stuff.
PUT THAT DICK IN MY MOUTH! Posted April 4, 2008 Report Posted April 4, 2008 However Ruby Tuesday is fairly awful. No
CheesalaIsGood Posted April 4, 2008 Report Posted April 4, 2008 I'm having something of a brain fart here. Who was that guy that had the video where his skin gets blown off and he is dancing around as just a muscle figure? Damn, music trivia!
