Top 150 Best Selling Rock Albums of All Time
MindCrime replied to MindCrime's topic in Music Discussion
I own 49 of the CD's (maybe a miscount?) on that list, most of them being in the Top 50, & a lot of them are one's I'm not too proud of. -
Scott Weiland would be a good singer for Alice in Chains, except that he's with Slash & Duff working on a project called Velvet Revolver, Chris Cornell would be another one, but he's teamed up with Rage for Audioslave, otherwise Jerry Cantrell could fill the void & just label his solo career as Alice in Chains.
-
Okay, I'll have to check out some of MSP's other stuff Not really in a mainstream circle, but they've received mention, I don't think I have heard them played on the radio, but a close friend recommended the album to me years back.
-
What are their other albums like? I read good reviews on "The Holy Bible" but haven't heard their music, except for their following album.
-
I had to look up an online source for that exact tidbit of information, but yeah Richey who disappeared during the recording of "Everything Must Go". He wrote about half of the album & then Wire had to finish it off.
-
I can concur; their mid-90?s set ?Everything Must Go? is a pretty civilized album, but could have been an even better album, had one of the members not left during it's original recording.
-
I agree, they never really glistened into the mainstream, except back in 1990 with Silent Lucidity from Empire. He has a reaching voice like no other rock musician I?ve heard & deserved more recognition for their take during the monotonous 80?s rock scene.

Too bad she can't sing worth a crap, Black Eyed Peas would be better off without her cramping their style. I heard on the radio a few years back, that the song "Yellow" was banned from American radio, because it offended the Chinese population, I don't know if this was true or not, could have just been a smart ass DJ, but I haven't heard the song on the air since.

When I think of innovative music, I tend to think towards the originals Any mid-50's rock group (especially Chuck Berry) Beatles sufficiently gave to influence rock, enough said The Doors were a daring band Jefferson Airplane tried a lot of new things Jimi Hendrix's style of electric guitar playing was new Pink Floyd came to with a brand of their own Velvet Underground revolutionized alternative with their obscure sound Led Zeppelin opened up for Hard Rock Black Sabbath opened the doors for Heavy Metal 10cc put up a new progressive sound George Clinton & Parliament with his brand of funk-pop David Bowie put towards the essence Sex Pistols were outrageous as hard-core punk creators The Police widely created the way for New Wave Rush synthesized Arena Rock Metallica displayed a talented heaviness not yet heard Run DMC put a heavy footnote on Rap Music Red Hot Chili Peppers mixed funk with rock/pop & it worked Sonic Youth created the ?Grunge Movement? Beastie Boys succeeded in ?White Rap? Nine Inch Nails industrialized to the mainstream Tool gave a new meaning to the dark side There?s many more that I am missing & will find later on

Question for the old folks...mellow 70's songs
MindCrime replied to Tenacious_Peaches's topic in Questions and Answers
I agree, I love Classic Tom, it's a good arrangement of Rock Tunes, and in my opinion one of the best of the latter part of the decade, but Damn the Torpedos was the peak point in his career, I still own the original vinyl. -
It depends on your taste in music... A few good ones are... Aerosmith - Angel Art Garfunkel - Since I Don't Have You (GnR version too) Beatles - Love Me Do Bon Jovi - Always Boyz II Men - End of the Road Bryan Adams - Everything I Do (I do it for you) Chicago - I Don't Want To Live Without Your Love Def Leppard - Hysteria Doors, The - Love Me Two Times Eagles - Lyin Eyes Elvis Presley - Can't Help Falling in Love Guns N' Roses - Sweet Child O' Mine John Lennon - Love Journey - Open Arms Lenny Kravitz - Again Madonna - True Blue Matchbox 20 - If You're Gone Meatloaf - Two out of Three Ain't Bad Phil Collins - One More Night Righteous Brothers - Unchained Melody Rolling Stones - Angie Terry Jacks - Seasons in the Sun Tom Petty - Love is a Long Road Tony Rich Project - Nobody Knows U2 - With or Without You Whitesnake - Is This Love? ...just to name a few If you're into older music, try checking out a few by Perry Como or Nat "King" Cole, (or even Wayne Newton maybe ) etc.

From Les Miserables I'm too (morning) tired & lazy :sleepy: to look it up online, any help ? ::

Not much has happened since the release of "Living Out Of Time" earlier this year, where he rejoined with his former band mates & the album is directly classic rock influenced. :guitar:

Meatloaf Tit Wrench Monkey Boy A Radio with Guts Pee-Wee Urine Nation Baz Turd Phat Sh*t

It was Stone Temple Pilots, who incidentally were fairly rated. Commercial reasons, Pearl Jam had a better chance to attract a bigger audience. I can't really think of any underrated bands off hand, to me they've all received a good evaluation from the press, I suppose if I try harder, I could list off a few.
-
Tom Petty - For All the Wrong Reasons It's one of my favorite songs from the early 90's & a good track for the "new beginnings" theme
-
No Problem, & it's very hot here, I can't even go outside anymore, unless I'm running to my car, but I guess it's about the same there in SoCal, I go there and L.A. every once in a while, mostly vacationing.

I remember that character, I had a hell of a time against it, back then I thought the graphics were the coolest thing possible, a lot has changed in games since then. I haven't touched that game in a long time though.

My screen name is influenced by the farsighted book 1984 written by George Orwell. It habitually has to do with Kissinger?s discretion volume, directed towards the Stalin era of Russia, as well as WW2 & was quoted as "met with enthusiastic reviews from most of the idealistic press."

He produced this movie, but didn't direct. It's one of my all time favorite films though, 20 years later & it still doesn't fail to amuse me. It's too hard to specifically choose just one film by him, so my favorite films Spielberg directed from each decade are. 70's Jaws 80's Raiders of the Lost Ark 90's Schindler's List 00's Minority Report

When album covers were more than covers ...
MindCrime replied to beatleant's topic in Music Discussion
It turns from spaceships to guitars, which is a total classic. My favorite unique album design in the past 10 years was Tool's Aenima album, which was a freaky 3D eye movement, it's the kind of originality that the art in music lately has failed to produce. Unfortunately I can't post a pic of it, because it requires it's cut grated cover for the effect. -
I looked at my post history & there were 3 less posts in it then what my post count is. I don't really post anything obscene, so I was wondering if they got deleted or not.

Poll-What's your favourite Beatles album?
MindCrime replied to beatleant's topic in Music Discussion
Yellow Submarine is my personal favorite, but Revolver & the White Album are good selections. -
Does anybody else like them? I've been listening to them for 10 years now, they're one of my favorite bands from the 90's. Keenan can put a perception with his dark lyrics & in-depth vocals like no other I've heard. What are your favorite tracks? In No Order: Part of Me Opiate Prison Sex Flood 46&2 Eulogy Pushit Schism Triad

I've heard of this band, but not much in music, are they mostly folk influenced?
