I think I'm tripping.

 

[Tonka Time]

Got some new motherfucking jeans.

I just purged my Facebook friends list of coworkers. Monday might be interesting..

Why on earth would you friend coworkers on facebook anyway? Fuck that.

 

[Vimana]

Shit's happening in my mind that I'm not sure I can put into words.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

Thanks for letting us know that

 

[Vimana]

It used to piss me off when people told me about acid trips and said stuff like that, but now I get it.

 

[The Ozzman]

I didn't think about the ramifications at the time. Because everything at work has degenerated since then, I've been forced to do it. I don't want people twisting shit I say online to get me in trouble at work.

I made a cute little music grid on my facebook profile tonight, with my favorite 3 bands from 5 different decades (based on the year of the band's first album).

1960s: Grateful Dead, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin
1970s: Steely Dan, Black Sabbath, Gentle Giant
1980s: Ministry, Metallica, Skinny Puppy
1990s: Therion, Chemical Brothers, Opeth
2000s: Phoenix, Holy Fuck, Ulrich Schnauss

Anyone wanna make their own and post it here?

[King Richard]

JHC that's goign to be a hard list to come up with...

Props to Vimana for mentioning AIC though, fucking love AIC.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

If you are not a fag you should love Alice in Chains.

 

[Xorv]

i did not love, but then suddenly loved aic.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

I almost put them on my list, but the 90s are a competitive decade.

Also swapped out Agalloch for Ulrich Schnauss after Dodens pointed out that Agalloch was 90s.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

How does one deal with bands crossing multiple decades? Just when they started/put out their first full-length? Tool would be on my 90s list, along with like... Suffocation or something.

After a lot of thought it's here (harder than I thought doing this by the way)

1960s: Cream, The Doors, Lynyrd Skynyrd
1970s: Black Sabbath, The Who, Sex Pistols
1980s: Metallica, Anthrax, Megadeth, Pantera
1990s: Nirvana, Moonspell, Pearl Jam, Faith No More
2000s: Audioslave, Foo Fighters, Scars On Broadway, Slipknot

 

[Vossyrus]

I'm really not too well versed in 60s or 70s music. I like Joy Division and Bauhaus, who got started in the late 70s, but that's about it. I mostly listen to 80s & 90s, and to a lesser extent, 00s-onward.

80s: Christian Death, Dead or Alive, The Smiths, Pet Shop Boys
90s: Marilyn Manson, Cradle of Filth, London After Midnight, Pet Shop Boys
00s: Theatres des Vampires (old), Sopor Aeternus, Akercocke (maybe)

*based on the band's contribution to that decade.

I say do whatever feels right to you. I prefer to mark the start of the band's career as the release of their first full-length.

My 2000s list is ridiculous, as i barely listen to any bands that started then.

 

[King Richard]

Ya, I spent 20 minutes going back and forth on my final three in the 60's and gave up. No fucking way I could just name three bands man. But I will say, The Beatles should be on everyone's list by default.

Chicago/Illinois residents:

August 25th is Hot Import Nights at Solider field. It's a huge car show with a lot of hot bitches and cool shit to do. Even if you're apathetic towards cars it'd still be cool to check out. I'm definitely going so if you wanted to head down and meet up I'm down.

If you're interested just PM me or something and I'll remind you when it's getting closer to showtime.

 

[Zephyrus]

That will be the weekend just before classes start at Iowa. I'm not a car person, but I might be able to drive over to Chi-town to grab a round with you.
