USCHO Music Thread: Less Talk, More Rock

[solovsfett]

Oh, Eno saved the Heads. More Songs About Buildings and Food is fine but Remain in Light is genius.

Remain In Light is my favorite TH record by far.

"Hotel California" is a negative review with a 2 minute guitar solo.

Mama Wendy, my best Mama friend, asked me last year to bring "upbeat and calming" music to Out On the Lakeshore, the local LGBT resource center. Since then, I've been listening to exactly that type of music. Lots more Norah Jones, Sara Bareilles, P!nk, Ingrid Michaelson, Cloud Cult, The Shins, etc. Helped bring a change in my attitude, going from usually sad and depressed to pretty f-cking happy.

And part of my transition is the attitude of "f-ck you, I won't do what you tell me." With that in mind, I'm not ashamed to say I've been singing along with Fall Out Boy, P!nk, Boyz II Men, all the pop I grew up with in the 1990s, etc.

How did you miss this? It's literally right in the lyrics.

Was on a bit of a nostalgia kick for a while with The Meters, The Sweet, Edgar Winter and Robin Trower, then weirdly transitioned into Finnish hillbillies Steve N Seagulls covering AC/DC.

Imogen Heap, "Speak For Yourself." Her voice is ethereal....

One of my fave rebellious songs is "Skunx" by Lars Frederiksen And The Bast*ds (yes, the Lars from Rancid). One poignant line:
With another victory I bashed right under the sun
My war was over but a new one has begun
