Psychedelic rock

[thcbongman]

Yeah, true psychedelic/acid rock is indeed rare nowadays, hence my avid listening of pre-1970 gems. I live in the past and I'm proud of it.

I live in the past too, but I try to keep up with the times as well in my quest to blast my ears with tunes. Good music is good music, no matter the time period!

Speaking of psychedelic, since it has not been mentioned.....

Funkadelic - Maggot Brain

Me too.

You should check out the box set Nuggets - Original Artyfacts From The First Psychedelic Era 1965-68. Lots of lost garage classics and "forgotten" bands here.

Wow, this is disappointing...some thread on electronica or 50 Cent would have yielded much more replies, I'm sure.

for some reason i take personal offence to that statement. Dont hate on electronica. Theres alot of electronica thats way more psychedelic than your deffinition of psychedelic or acid rock. Before i saw that post i thought you were just a new wave hippy and i was cool with that but then you had to go bashin defenceless music. I feel its my duty to pull you up on your ignorance.


i havent been here in a while but its good to see some things havent changed.

I'm sorry; I just tend to prefer my music created by human hands playing strings or hitting percussion, not technological tinkering. Yeah, I'm aware that there is great skill involved, but it can't really be compared to creating it by hand. It's like comparing pushing some buttons to detonate a bomb (however complex) to defeating a rival sword to sword.

I seem to recall your finding Zeppelin to be overrated? Forgive me, but I think we're just on very different wavelengths.

Not necessarily, a trance band like Wild Marmalade does all their stuff with hands, a couple of drummers and a didgeridoo. but if there's anyone to recommend psychedelic music, it's Metaphor, dude listens to some extremely trippy shit and he'd be a dude to recommend some real blow-your-mind psychedelic music since I tend to like a more poppy style than he prefers. He always got good shit to offer, speaking of which, Metaphor, you come back but don't name-drop. Bleh.

If they play their own instruments, kudos. I'm just really, really not into post-rock or shoegaze or any of that, and I'm of the belief that a Zeppelin hater is unlikely to recommend anything I'd like, since for me they're the epitome of music and all that is great about it. I also disliked the reference made to my "ignorance", which I take to here mean a differing opinion that can't be accepted.

When I feel the need to get "pulled up on my ignorance", I'll let you know. Until then, my opinions will not require your rubber stamp.
