What's on the workbench?

[dawson]

I honestly don't know who Nergal is... I mean, I know he's in Behemoth, but I don't really know who that is either.

All of this made me curious so I looked up a video.

The entire thing was shown black & white and in slow motion, lots of stuff on fire, lots of weird stuff happening to crucifixes, your disemboweled dude singing the chorus- pretty routine deal.

At one point there was a kid spitting what appeared to be milk onto a medicine-man type character, which was almost interesting enough to keep me watching but I still had to leave in the end- the songs are really long.

Anyhow, the update is:
Nobody will be surprised to know that Nazis still can't make good music.

OK I listened... It's not as bad as I expected it to be, but it's definitely not my thing. (like most recent music)

I recently listened to Coheed and Cambria for the first time.... for some reason I thought they were a jam band like Phish.
Imagine my surprise.

 

[Big Monk]

My idea of liking new music is discovering some old music I just hadn’t heard yet.

Sheer disappointment, that’s all I can say.

I mean I clicked play, I saw the band and heard the music and thought "Oh my goodness, this is not what I expected."

Then the helium voiced dude started singing ... what the? ...

Yep. The female singer, I believe it’s the same band, is much much better. They do that wake me up inside song, don’t they?

 

[Robert]

I don't think that's the same band.

 

[jimilee]

I don't think that's the same band.

Sounds equally disappointing though.

That’s evanescence I think, and they were more popular i the early 00s. Coheed and Cambria is one of the more popular modern prog bands, and I think they’re in the same sorta prog-metal vein as opeth, dream theater, and Haken based on what my friends who are into all of that stuff have told me

 

[Harry Klippton]

I always thought of coheed and Cambria as some kind of emo band

I absolutely DO NOT and I don't appreciate you saying such things.

Trick question anyway... there was no music made after the 90s. It's like everyone knew they had no chance and just gave up after the grunge bands disappeared.

Folks tell me I need to be more open minded, that I can't just listen to old 90's music... I gave in, I started listening to 70's and 80s music again too.

 

[Big Monk]

I love 80s music, it was some of the most diverse, creative and best songwriting of any decade. @Harry Klippton thinks I'm a crackhead for it, but IDGAF

Answer honestly: Hall and Oates?

 

[Robert]

You can be a crackhead and still like good music.

It's a little easier now... It was tough admitting you still liked hair bands during the grunge era.

 

[Robert]

Answer honestly: Hall and Oates?

I caught myself rocking out to Huey Lewis and the News the other day.....

"So this is it!?" ... very appropriate lyrics for the moment of realization.

Huey Lewis was big on Vinyl in my house growing up.

I remember my first nightmare as a kid... and it sounds like a joke.

I dreamed that I walked outside and saw my Michael Jackson's Thriller album laying on the ground in the rain... Nearly cried.

The nightmare would have been staying at Neverland!

Answer honestly: Hall and Oates?

Hell yeah. Daryl Hall is an insane talent— it’s no wonder that he was wanted for both King Crimson and Van Halen at one point or another, and John Oates is a brutally good songwriter.

 

[Bricksnbeatles]

Absolutely, I celebrate the decade as a whole. Every genre was lit. Punk, hardcore, metal, pop, new wave, adult contemporary, r&b, rock n roll, smooth jazz, rough jazz, hip hop, indie, weird AL, alternative and the birth of grunge. Even the the boy bands were

Three questions:
-Oingo Boingo?
-Christopher Cross?
-Nick Lowe?
