The Music Thread

Share some of your favorite songs, artists, ideas, creations, etc.

Here's mine...


I'm a huge fan of The Metal but I think I'll start with some of my legendary, less angry, favorites.

Probably my favorite band of all time across all genres is Primus. I've seen them live twice, and I've seen Les Claypool live in his solo act once.

It all started with "Jerry was a Race car driver"

For those who don't know Les, fun fact: he once audition for Metallica and they denied him based solely on the fact that he is far too damn good for them.

I've seen tons of bands live (Slayer, Megadeth, Sepultura, Napalm Death, Cannibal Corpse, Korn, System of a Down, Pantera, Slipknot, Lamb of God - to name a few). But Primus is the band that showed me first hand the largest mosh pit I've ever seen, and it was to this mighty cute song:

A few thousand people went ape shit at the 1:37 mark.


I hold in high regard just about everything Claypool releases; if I had to pick a favorite song it is simply, Here Come The Bastards

    I'm not allowed to wave my meat stick around any more due to me still being on probation because of the last time I did it  :D

    Don't think I've heard about Jimmy Urine before that FLA song, but he does seem like a swell energetic non-boring lad, lol

    Well, if you scroll up the page a bit you'll find those last two songs already posted by me. :)
    I've been a fan of Jimmy / Mindless Self Indulgence since I saw the Shut Me Up video (directed by Jhonen Vasquez, the creator of Invader Zim).
    I've never worked a register, but this is what I'd imagine it is like. :)


    Ok, how about a bit of Australian music. Here's a rather, umm, unique band: TISM (This Is Serious Mum)
    Humorous and offensive songs by a group of anonymous people in masks. (Their identities were eventually leaked, but for years it was a mystery)

    Sorry :blush: - somehow I must have missed those posts, I just searched for Mr. Urine on YouTube and found those videos, but congrats, you've got an awesome taste in music!

    Can't remember if I've already posted this, Stanley Jordan doing a cover of Stairway To Heaven:

    https://youtu.be/NeooHiX4oH0

    Best version of this song you'll EVER hear. He detunes his guitars using some sort of mathematical formula if I'm remembering correctly, and was discovered when a record executive heard him busk on the Underground (or whatever those in the US call the thing lol).

    He often plays two guitars at the same time and on one of the CDs I had (which has since gone to the charity shop) he's playing one of them in the studio with his feet lmfao :o :D

    I think that was at the Montreux Jazz Festival in the 90s, I used to have it on Betamax years ago which also featured George Benson who's also a great guitarist but stuck too far up his own arsehole for my liking, loves himself WAY too much.

    Great stuff everyone!

    Korn released another new song yesterday. Love the energy on this one:



    Their new album is out, going to buy it today. It's awesome that we have a new Korn and new Rammstein album this year. Adding them both to my workout playlist!

    Nice! I like "You'll never find me" better though.
