Crue was awesome. I just wish there were more Crue songs in Crue Ball.

LOL hair metal. Kill the poser!

Back in a jazz/fusion mood lately.

I know, right? I should feel embarrassed, but if it makes it any better, I prefer the early 80s stuff to the crap that came out at the end (excepting Guns N Roses). Motley Crue, Def Leppard, Van Halen, stuff that also gets closer to heavy metal, like Dio.

Jazz is cool, too.

Dio was amazing! R.I.P.

It's alright. I used to listen to Winger. I still like them. Even White Lion was pretty decent. Dokken was O.K. as well. That was really it for me. I also am a die hard David Lee Roth (solo career) fan. I listen to so much variety. Old school punk and hardcore, classical, thrash, jazz fusion, Zappa, game music, it's all good to me. I just couldn't stand most of that poser stuff like Poison, Britney Fox, Enuff Z Nuff, Cinderalla, LOL Stryper

Josh, Ope, if you like Liquid Tension Experiment check out Allan Holdsworth's Heavy Machinery. BTW they also used an Atari ST for some of this recording.

Heh-heh, me too... You know, I watched "Hanoi" Jane Fonda recently in Barbarella and when I heard the name of the scientist/villain, Dr. Durand Durand, I was like WTF?? This is how they got their band's name, from a cliched villain in a weird 60's SciFi movie ? Indeed, when they got started, they used to play near a famous club called "Barbarellas" and later took the name of the movie's villain as their own reflection as fans.

Yes! When I watched Barbarella I wondered the same thing! The movie has a goofier pronunciation so I wasn't sure until I consulted a FAQ—holy cannoli, I didn't know 99% of the stuff in the FAQ.

Why am I suddenly in the mood to watch Barbarella and Flash Gordon (1980's) again?

Yeah, there's a huge divide between the early stuff and the ones who did it to get famous.

And Duran Duran? Ugh, do I really have to admit publicly to liking them?

geise · 05/30/2014, 05:55 PM

One of my favorite albums by Edge of Sanity. Haha and it's an EP. 9 minutes in they do cover of Invisible Sun by The Police. Great stuff.

How could I have forgotten their other nod to the movie, "Electric Barbarella," a fun, whacky pop song. I'm sure you know it, but I got to first hear it when a sibling bought a Greatest Hits collection of Duran Duran like 6 years ago or something.

QuoteWhy am I suddenly in the mood to watch Barbarella and Flash Gordon (1980's) again?

I watched it with Zardoz not that far apart if that counts. ;)

When Blondie was touring for The Hunter, Duran Duran was the opening band and were awesome. This was right around the time Rio was released but before everyone knew who they were really.

I love the Descendents! Milo was my go to album to listen to while cutting the grass for a long time. I've had that shirt for awhile too. Can't remember the last time I listened to them, let alone "cool to be you" but I'll listen to them again tonight

roflmao · 06/03/2014, 10:23 PM

Pump Up the Volume introduced me to the Decendents.

I never got big into them, but I still have a few mix tapes friends made me with them included.

esteban · 06/03/2014, 11:36 PM

If you take away the goofy/juvenile Descendants songs...you're still left with a great bunch of classic 80's tunes. I'm more inclined to listen to the former these days...and, damn, the songs are still brilliant (I.e. Clean Sheets).

Plus, I wish they tried more stuff like:
Iceman
Days are Blood

jtucci31 · 06/04/2014, 02:37 AM

The goofy/juvenile songs are what really brought me to the band!

That being said, I only ever really listened to Milo a bunch. I have never really heard Iceman or Days are Blood but i like these a lot. They kind of remind me of like Fugazi-ish. This is totally something i could get in to.

And by the PURE-POP goodness that oozed out in so many catchy songs. So many super-catchy songs.

I still love my fair share of goofy bands but a band like NOFX hasn't grown on me the best as i find them to be kind of buttholes. But i may just be too cynical for me own good at times.

The Lawrence Arm's new album (Metropole) initially disappointed me, but it's one of those ones that after repeated listens it just gets better and better until you wonder how you could have ever been disappointed with it in the first place. Yeah.

They're playing tonight in Madison, WI then doing their "homecoming" show at the Metro in Chicago on Saturday night. And of course, I already had g'damn plans. Argh. This band barely ever tours.

Anyway, enjoy the first single off the new album:
