Wasn't expecting a dead meadow shout out in here. I got all kinda recs for you if you're into that stoner heavy psych stuff.
While we are on aging retired hipster recs, I'll throw out the stooges "I wanna be your dog"

Glad I could surprise you. Bring on the stoner rock recs. Tastes in pysch are broad -- Dead Meadow, Black Angels, Spacemen 3, Tame Impala, Black Mountain, etc. (And above all, I'm a Pink Floyd nut.) If you dig that sort of stuff and country too, I highly recommend you check out Sturgill Simpson. Mostly badass 70s-style country, but his last record was pretty pysched out (as the clip I linked indicates).Quote:

Ftr rage against the machine is NOT a noise band. It may sound like racket to you, but it's just metal melded with rap.
True, you can overproduce and over gloss the music, and there has been a lot of that since the late 80's/early 90's and it liked to kill plain old rock and roll particularly over the airwaves. It drove a lot of potentially good musicians away from rock and pushed them to c&w or to the local/regional club scenes. With society's move away from the airwaves to get their first listen to new releases or new bands there has been a tremendous influx of poorly produced and poorly arranged music released that is making it to the airwaves. And that is where this long time rock and roller prefers to listen, either that way or live in a medium to small venue with good acoustics and comfortable surroundings/seating. Keep in mind that I am late fifties and cut my teeth on live rock and roll with The Jefferson Airplane as my first show attended in early 1972.Quote:

Either that or the blues performers such as Jonny Lang, KW Shepherd, Joe Bonomassa, etc.
As long as it isn't "Catch Us If You Can" --they did
The modern rock stuff on the radio is terrible. Imagine dragons, Mumford and sons, etc. radio has long been a terrible representation of good music though. At least since the mid 70s or so, with the early 90s kinda being a brief hiccup where grunge took over the airwaves and caught the labels and radio stations off guard.Quote:

They don't. This song would give most of our players headaches before they run out the tunnel. I know this music is for some people, but we are in an almost exclusively hip-hop age when it comes to pump-up music for college athletes.Quote:

sounds good. i'm always looking to discuss random music that very few of my real life friends care to listen to. eternal tapestry is a local band for me, so i see them open for other psych and experimental bands all the time.Quote:
