was listening to some Pražský Výběr recently. pretty old stuff, oh the memories...

This one has one of my fav examples of how to effectively do a very tasteful guitar solo for escalating the tension in a song @ 3:30:


Also fun:

I'd never heard of these Psychic Ills cats before last week when a link to this song popped up in my feed. Anything involving Hope Sandoval is instantly of interest and this tune has since been on constant rotation. Makes sense Hope was tapped for this, pure Mazzy Star worship.

Really enjoying the music released on Dais Records, they're putting out some great post punk and industrial music.

 

[NinjaSweater]

Anyone heard the new Deftones? Its fantastic!

PiL, one of my absolute favorite bands, and definitive proof that John Lydon is a legend (as if fronting the Sex Pistols wasn't proof enough).

Way better than the Sex Pistols.



Songs of Love and Hate is easily my favorite folk album and a contender for favorite non-metal album of all time. The album has a pretty varied tone from song to song but this one has a dark, brooding atmosphere with well-written lyrics that strongly allude to bitterness over a failed relationship.

I really dig this band from Norway.

I don't know how good of a comparison PiL and the Pistols are, given PiL has put out quite a bit of material whereas to this day the Pistols have only ever made one studio album. So of course PiL outdoes them just based on having recorded more albums, and damn good albums too. But the Pistols will always have a special place in my heart as another of my true favorites and one of the greatest rock and punk bands ever.

They don't sound anything alike. I mentioned it mostly because I'm not a big Pistols fan.

I feel similarly about The Clash. I'm a much bigger fan of the Ramones, The Dead Boys, The Damned, and The Urinals when it comes to '77-punk, just to name a few.

I was having trouble thinking of a song for "burden" but I see that it's over now anyway. I'll try and get in on the next one.

You into Radio Birdman?

 

[no country for old wainds]

i've never been very into the sex pistols or PiL. not that fond of the clash but 'train in vain' has become an all-time favourite tune over the past couple years and i'm gonna revisit their discog at some point to see if anything else jumps out.

aside from stuff already mentioned that i like (the damned, ramones, radio birdman), my '70s punk canon contains the likes of wipers, television, pere ubu, the adverts, germs, richard hell & the voivoids, stiff little fingers, avengers and that superior early misfits shit.

 

[no country for old wainds]

nice! i was avoiding '80s and proto-punk stuff so it didn't become an unwieldy list but i share your enthusiasm for a lot of those. there's also virtually always a few proto-punk gems on any garage nuggets comp you pick at random, i find.

Nice I've been into UK Decay a lot lately.

The Electric Eels were the best.
