misfits, dead kennedys,black flag, fear factory, lords of acid. specialy check out the dead kennedys song "kinky sex makes the world go around". freaky shit for the times.
I just posted a way cool song from Jimi Hendrix "Cherokee Mist" and you can get it free at OnlineTV go to the downloads/music and there it is, free too. Done by a guy Richard Black on Skorpyo records.Quote:

TRUSTcompany - SELF TITLED

Look on myspace or purevolume for Psychedelic bands. you'll be suprised what you can find.
That didn't exactly sound right.Quote:

Aphex Twin is another artist I still listen to from those days (esp Druqz), along with Pennywise, Venetian Snares, Squarepusher, Dwarves, fuck it I don't know. A lot.
try THE VELVET UNDERGROUND
well i was checking the bands u guys mentioned and no one mentioned the cure :eek:
they're fucking great, try some of their THREE IMAGINARY BOYS songs.... o_0
Here's some:
The clash (<-- my dads band played two concerts with them in the 70's!
the deady boys <-- get "sonic reducer"...
The white stripes
The velvet underground
Flaming lips
Ben Harper (<--- you'll like him!!! he's awesome... he did burn one down also)
Bob marley
Iron maiden ( may like? not sure... )
Led Zeppelin
Jimi hendrix
Bob dylan ( like a rolling stone, subbteranean homesick blues etc.)
David Bowie
Iggy pop ( get the song "Search and destory")
Misfits ( "Ballroom blitz" is my favorite song by them
Tom Petty ( best song is last dance with maryjane, well that's my favorite )
Marcy Playground is one of the best bands I've ever heard and I just found them. I smell Sex and Candy is good but download Poppies. It's great. and Our Generation. All song titles by Marcy Playground.
THE VANDALSQuote:

all the bands around currently arn't very good, it's more about money for them. Before music in the 60's and 70's, bands weren't making lots of money ( except the beatles and stones )
alot of bands now do it for the money, not saying that hendrix would've played for free at every show...etc.
Basically, not too many good bands out right now IMO
there are some good ones like radiohead, Children of bodom etc.
Music has branched out into so many different forms now. It's been evolving. If you're unaware of the many revolutions in music since the 60's you're simply looking in the wrong place.
Radio is corrupted, along with MTV. It seems like most people primarily get their tunes from these retarded sources. There is a huge wealth of excellent music made since the freaking 70's!!
consider that raw musical technology has been improving. a metal band from the 70's draws from the bands that came before it.
a metal band from 2000 would have 30+ years of musical resource to draw from!!
of course, certain bands like the beatles are certain classics. You cant defeat pure creative genius with electronics. but consider..if this superior technology was given to a creative genius.
If you're not evolving
you're decaying.
Wow, never thought I would see his nameQuote:

(little sub fact - the singers for Frank Zappas group, Mark Vollman and Howard Kalan were actually the group "The Turtles" a big pop group at the same time and complete stoners - contrary to the laws of Freak Out straight egg Frank).
I have some great electronica stuff and industrial, but have to grab the CD's out cause the names were too eclectic to remember. Maybe I will rip the music and post it.
I agree with your assessment. But, what else is there for the masses to talk about. Once you go obscure, which means NOT MTV, you have to provide the source. After I hear a song 5 times I dont want to hear it anymore. So I keep getting new stuff. I have some 5000 cds in boxes, most autographed, and rarely do I pull one out to listen again. I put Rats of Unusual Size in there, and they are a 90's band, most famous as they were the house band for a big Canadian comedy TV show, but they had early hits, like Coffee Man that were classic.Quote:

But the thing is the old bands laid the foundation, and while old folks dont like to change into new forms of music, without the old foundation nothing would be there to build. I have Reason, Fruity Loops and all the tools and crank all kinds of stuff. Sometimes total electric, sometimes I plug in instruments and play with them, and mix with ProTools.

I dont like the hard metal really, even though Rancid and the like are hoodies for me, but, I just cant get that angry being such a wasted stoner. So I go more for Racheal Sage for babe music and Zane Campbell for insaneorock and Ween brother for weird (I do mean early Wean when they made recording by hand pulling the tape through the machines) I have some great hand pressed records from them, early demos they sent to the radio station I worked at. WFMU, check them out, wfmu.org for the wildest radio online.
I work with Reason, Fruity Loops and all the tools and mix them up with ProTools. You cant ignore the present and live the past, but ignoring the past is as bad as ignoring the present. I plug in my guitar and work with that too. Part of living is to respect and learn from history and the past while working with every tool available bringing new horizons to the present. Living in the past may be pleasant for some, safe feelings, but ignoring the changes of the present will only lead to stagnation and that does not go anywhere fun. So; watch the past, play in the present and create the future.
HmMm interesting post Art. heh. I agree with what you said, especially about needing to take the past and present into consideration. To really pioneer i suppose you need to consider the future too, eh? :)
You probably make some trippy music! Do you have a web site? Once you publish your work it's considered copyright :D
