A whole bunch of others, too after Christmas. I got Ozzmosis back when it came out, and loved it, but got rid of it during my "Christian only" phase...but I'm glad to have it again!

I'm really happy about The Seventh Power -- anyone else dig it?

Trog -- You just got Under the Blade and Live at Hammersmith? Those are two of TS's best!!! Check out the version of "Under The Blade" on Hammersmith -- listen to the way JJ French bends slightly out of key (intentionally sharp) and gives those leads such a deranged sound![/i]

I've had UTB for some time, but I recently had to replace it when one of my dogs pissed on part of my collection. :x

But yeah, this is the first time I've ever had Live at Hammersmith. I look forward to hearing it!

Quote :

Hehe... I know that's not funny.........but it is!

I know, it sort of is. Had she destroyed anything REALLY rare though, I would have been the one with the "pissing" problem!

AC/DC - Bon Scott Rarities

Tonight I picked up the new (well, from 2005) digipack release of Queen's A Night At The Opera.

Not only is the sound improved (even better than the 1991 remaster), but there's a bonus DVD with the videos for Bohemian Rhapsody and You're My Best Friend, plus live footage edited together to create videos for all the other tracks... which at first didn't sound very cool, but is.

Also, there's great commentary from all four band members... new commentary from Brian & Roger, and old recordings that fit perfectly from Freddie and John.

Sweet! I want to pick that up sometime, man! Sounds awesome!

Elric of Melnibone by Michael Moorcock

Downloaded Coroner's 'Punishment For Decadence' this morning as my rude wake-up call on the way to work. I would say it was worth the $10.

I listened to some of the BUDGIE and was kinda bummed. It kinda sucked.

But the BUDGIE I heard (actually at the PLACE OF SKULLS I was at with

Troggy) was pretty killer! I only listened to the first 3 songs so far though..

The guy at the record show was really into BUDGIE and said this one was

his favorite, so I got it..

So it's out now..

Man, I hope they have the limited edition of this cd at their show
this weekend!! I actually liked the "Devoid Of Color" tracks they had
at their myspace..

Let us know how Whiskey Foote is Trog..

After the first listen, it sounds pretty good. Be forewarned though, Bruce does a good amount of the singing. His voice has improved though since the first album.

CRAP!!!!

I guess Wino is just too lazy to sing..

He has such a killer voice. That is one of the reasons I didn't like the first
HIDDEN HAND that much. I can deal with one or two songs with Bruce, but
anymore than that, and it's annoying. I like Wino's voice alot, so naturally, I want
him to sing the songs..

Thanks for the heads up on that..

Bruce and Wino also do a bit of singing together, like on Mother*Teacher*Destroyer. I think they have a cool sounding combination with the both of them singing harmonies.

Bruce's voice sounds MUCH better on this one than the first one though, bro. So give it a chance.

I just listened to The Vanden Plas- Christ 0

Jorn- THe Duke and Allen/Lande- The Battle on Napster



remind me again... what is all the fuss about? sounds like gay euro-metal to me. The same homogenized stuff over and over. Yet people seem to get all moist over this

Took the off-color language thread quite well, didn't we?



I couldn't agree more with you man. I tend to think that it's simply a
lack of spirit. Extremely tight musicianship at the cost of
originality, soul, & style.

What I meant sweaty???

But yeah I am totally hearing the end of your post. That is exactly it. It is all precision and no feeling. It is like the physics kid who thinks music is just a number sentence

"Moist"...awesome way of putting it!

Then my mind is waaayy down in the gutter, man! My bad. Peace be with ye.

Glad
you agree ... it's one of the reasons I love the Cave! People around
here seem to have a relatively similiar approach to music
appreciation.

Picked up Anthrax - I'm The Man
