Currently: Social Distortion - Don't Take Me For Granted I've had my headphones attached to my head pretty much non-stop for the past couple of weeks, and listening to a lot of post grunge, rock stuff. At the moment I'm listening Social Distortion which is probably way more punk than I'm allowed in my position I think punks do the best love songs though, it's sad in a way you can dance to. __________________ I am not so serious this passion is a plagiarism I might join your century but only on a rare occasion I was taken out before the labor pains set in and now behold the world's worst accident I am the girl anachronism Top Login or register to post comments Fri, 09/01/2009 - 14:20 #1 darkish_angel87 Offline Joined: 17/10/2005 Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells II Couldn't we just resurrect the old thread, or is that too harmful to some people's browsers, or something? __________________ "This racist lady won't let us play catch!"

Saxon - Let Me Feel Your Power Need to get a ticket for their Sheffield gig, really hoping Iced Earth get confirmed for support (co-headliner would be better though like in Europe) I have a playlist of songs I haven't listened to at all or barely, or stuff I haven't listened to in a while, which I have on shuffle quite often __________________ RockSoc Head-Power Metaller 2008 Top Login or register to post comments Fri, 09/01/2009 - 14:33 #3 ring_leader_uk Offline Joined: 26/09/2005 darkish_angel87 wrote: Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells II LEDGE!

Less Than Jake - Landmines and Landslides I bought it as part of a 2-disc set with Tubular Bells III. I then also bought Pink Floyd's Meddle with it as part of the 2 for £10 deal at HMV; bargain, methinks Now listening to Firewind's The Premonition which, oddly, my sister has been borrowing off me quite a lot lately (she mainly likes stuff like The Script or Fall Out Boy) __________________ "This racist lady won't let us play catch!"

Going through a pre-76 Qup phase again....and some Deep Purple. But mosty, Shortwave Set, Sparks and They Might Be Giants. Not exactly 'rock', although the Sparks stuff has some killer guitars.... __________________ "A Knife and Fork in a World of Soup" Top Login or register to post comments Fri, 09/01/2009 - 21:40 #8 BY TOR Offline Joined: 15/10/2006 Mostly been listening to Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me by U2 as it's their only song that i like so i feel like i should make the most of it. Also it's the theme to Batman Forever so i can be forgiven for that as well. Also Misery Business by Paramore as i genuinely enjoy it and it reminds me of Daryl as he hates them, i can imagine him entering a fit of rage when he hears it and this amuses me greatly.

Well I'll make sure to check that out; the original is probably one of my favourite Beatles songs. I've noticed most of the best guitar tracks out there are by musicians whose playing is rooted in the blues or jazz; metal guitarists can be really fast and technical, but they've got nothing on Stevie Ray Vaughan, Freddie King, Django Reinhardt, Wes Montgomery, etc. __________________ "This racist lady won't let us play catch!"
