Attis
09.11.11 | dont get mewithoutYou
start listening to good indie |
Restrikted
09.11.11 | yeah indie blows. i think it's boring |
bannedwarrior
09.11.11 | rule one is jozh is probably the worst user since ravenrock and he hasnt even heard of the wipers so i wouldnt trust his opinion on rock music |
Jozh
09.11.11 | You haven't even heard Frightened Rabbit, I've actually heard Dinosaur Jr. |
Attis
09.11.11 | maybe you didnt give it a chance. pause whatever shitty metal youre listening to atm and get some pixies & the smiths |
Jozh
09.11.11 | I'm listening to Illmatic, good try though. |
Attis
09.11.11 | Frightened Rabbit is alright but nowhere near classic/essential |
Jozh
09.11.11 | You have 94% alt/indie, you really need to expand your taste.. |
bannedwarrior
09.11.11 | all the pixies shit is gold
smiths are cool enough but not my favorite band |
Restrikted
09.11.11 | i agree with Jozh. only 3 genres? c'mon |
Jozh
09.11.11 | And btw, I did like Dinosaur Jr. I just prefer Frightened Rabbit.. |
bannedwarrior
09.11.11 | oh well if you like dinosaur jr that's fine |
Attis
09.11.11 | "You have 94% alt/indie, you really need to expand your taste.."
yes ive listened to 100 albums and 94% of them are alt/indie according to the super accurate sputnik chart. youre on the ball with this one |
Jozh
09.11.11 | I'll get you started on something. Listen to Opeth, Strapping Young Lad and Electric Wizard. |
Attis
09.11.11 | try harder |
Jozh
09.11.11 | You're so close minded, enjoy all the indie. |
Relinquished

09.11.11 | let's see some true metal classics from when i was a kid:
deep purple - in rock
sabbath - master of reality (smoked many a doob to this one especially)
rush - fly by night (it's proto-thrash, just ask dave mustaine)
priest - sad wings
thin lizzy - jailbreak
ufo - strangers in the night
motorhead - ace of spades
diamond head - lightning to the nations
anvil - metal on metal
venom - black metal
iron maiden - number of the beast |
Relinquished
09.11.11 | jozh you're an idiot to the eleventh degree |
Attis
09.11.11 | get some low, ignore other recs |
bannedwarrior
09.11.11 | sabbath may be old but they got more balls even on their shitty records than morrissey's even had in his mouth, that celibate crybaby bitch
you know my band opened for the smiths once in 86 and johnny marr tried to have sex with me, not playing |
Attis
09.11.11 | i actually read that mustaine wanted to recreate the spirit of fly by night back when he was in metallica but then he got kicked off so he recruited some high school friends got baked and wrote killing is my business instead and started death metal |
deathridesahorse
09.11.11 | I love Pixies and I'm lukewarm on Dinosaur Jr. and mewithoutyou. My indie spree was proceeded by a noise/grind/prog binge that lasted two years so now I can't exactly jump back into The Shins and Built to Spill kinda stuff know what I mean?
PS - Let's stick to recs and save the hipster-cred bickering for later please? |
bannedwarrior
09.11.11 | i shot heroin with dave back in 86 we saw them play at a bar and all he did was talk about how small lars ulrich's dick was |

09.11.11 | pixies keep getting less interesting to me as time goes on, there were much better bands from that era that don't get half their exposure.
btw indie is such a vague genre that includes so many different kind of bands that you can't really say you're bored of it |
bannedwarrior
09.11.11 | i listened to bossanova yesterday for the first time in forever, it still kicks some ass but it's not quite as amazing as i remembered it being
doolittle is still the bees knees though |
Adabelle
09.11.11 | Jesus, you weren't lying when you said 94% Alt/indie on the pie chart. That's awesome man. |
Attis

09.11.11 | "i listened to bossanova yesterday for the first time in forever, it still kicks some ass but it's not quite as amazing as i remembered it being"
yeah the second half of that album is pretty weak. havalina and the happening save it though

deathridesahorse
09.11.11 | @porch - yeah no doubt, I agree, all I'm saying is that the kind of indie I used to dig (straight forwardy mellow rock) no longer does what it used to for me but that the kind of stuff I listed was more what I want out of indie now. stuff that dables in experimental/electronics or doesn't stick too closely to a common tag.
thanks for the recs y'all, currently checking out what i haven't heard of |

09.11.11 | The great thing about Indie is that it's such a vague genre tag so there's a huge variety of band. So huge you can't get bored with it cos you just move to a different band with a different sound. |
