Hey, it's some day, maybe Friday! What ya listening to? Screw you IYC.

Was up late last night because Steelers and I can’t sleep and 120 minutes was on. I Forgot the range of the late 80s and 90s music and the suck to awesome.
Crazy the range that the “establishment” let go and the levels of creativity of that era.
People think of poison, Motley Crue (not harshing them too much) and white lion but we also got husker du, bjork and butthole surfers. Wild times.

 

Have you ever heard Gling Glo? It's an Icelandic jazz trio with Björk singing (between her Sigarcubes days and her solo career).

She sings most of it in Icelandic so it sounds like scat.

 

AI generated 50s and 60s style with hugely inappropriate titles and lyrics.

 

Hugo today

I like this version better than Jigga's...

 

Yes

It can happen

(Because my damn kid sent me a text that reminded me of the song and now it’s in my damn head!)

 

And now, Phil Lesh. So I guess I’m going there for a few hours

 

Listening to Acid Bath today.... because they're getting back together after a 25+ year hiatus

 

Old Ozzy, Old Def Leppard, Alice Cooper, Old Crue, Old Accept, Dio and whatever youtube pulls up next.
Pregaming on sugar and metal for the Halloween onslaught. Multiple costume parties and events.

 

You lost little boy???

 

Wow. That record has a very special nostalgic place in my heart, but holy crap I haven’t listened to it probably in 20 years.

 

Yeah, I had a Blues For Allah night last night.

 

Jeff Beck. -- Goodbye Pork Pie Hat, from the Wired album.

 

New record from The Cure

 

What’s it called?

40 years of depression and whining?

 

After my first listen, I thought: too much cheesy, smooshy, sting synths, too high in the mix. The rest of the music is okay but it kind of ruined it for me.

 

Only been through it once, so I’ll hold on judgement for a few more listens

 

Love em or Love em more!! They been around forever,and I snagged alot of ass in the back of my
71 Camaro playing their cassettes ! Just go back and watch the Charlotte Sometimes videos and look
at them young fellurs! They more than earned their keep!

 

This morning my eldest beastoid was sitting at the table eating breakfast with her headphones on, blabbing something to herself that as an unconcerned, oblivious parent, I completely ignored. She then asked me if I knew what the name of the song was she was listening to, and I said, “Rats”?

“Yes! How did you know?”

“Because you’ve been mumbling it under your breath for the past two minutes.”

So she decided she needed to share this song with me, and pulled up YooToobz on the living room TV and played it.

I have to say, after hearing it, I thought to myself, “Self, it’s kind of remarkable how much your daughter’s current favorite band sounds exactly like the hair metal bands of the 80’s you grew up listening to.”

So I pulled up Dokken “Into the Fire” and she too was taken aback at how musically her 40-years-later music sounded just like the avant-garde anti-establishment protesting conformity trying-to-get-laid music of a time gone by.

Yes, friends. Ghost is just rehashed 80’s hair metal, with some goth imagery so you can pretend you’re hard.

 

Wifey turns it upppp when Life Eternal comes on. The atheist dark goth gimmick hides some great music.
