Jethro Tull is fucking hippie bullshit, and very much not metal.

[NAD]

But the first riff in the song Aqualung, from 1971, is heavy as fuck.

Discuss.

 

[MFJ]

Jethro Tull fucking rules. That is all.

 

[Black Winter Day]

Hippie bullshit? I take it you haven't heard the song "Minstrel in the Gallery"... much heavier than "Aqualung". And what about "Locomotive Breath"??? NAD, you need to start drinking again so you can start making sense again!

 

[NAD]

I used the term "hippie bullshit" lovingly. :Spin: Locomotive Breath kicks ass, and no I haven't heard Minstrel in the Gallery, what album is that from?

 

[lizard]

er....Minstrel in the Gallery

 

[NAD]

Ha! Cheeky bastards.

I tried to buy some more Tull from Columbia House when I went on a binge the other night, they didn't have anything though. I'll use my Supreme Gift Certificate Power to get some more soon.

hippie bullshit > metal
hm
at least 5 J.T. albums are MASTERPIECES.

BWD: Don't forget To Cry You A...what the fuck am I doing posting here at 4:01 Christmas afternoon? Either I'm suffering from holiday depression, or I'm trying to out-metal the thread resurrected from last year...

 

[Black Winter Day]

How's that Guapo album?

 

[JayKeeley]

I bet most people here would like "Songs from the Wood".

JT have cool basslines too.

 

[NAD]

I bet most people here would like "Songs from the Wood".

Ha, I highly doubt half the regulars would even give it a full spin, they think forests sound like screaming and bad production.

Jethro Tull is one of my favs of all-fucking-time. Ian Anderson was a genius pre-80's.

How the fuck did I miss this thread!!?!??!!

I think he is on tour right now, or just ended myabe. My father has seen him a few times, including 4 years ago, whih was supposedly his last tour.
