i just got the new Haunted CD as i am an At The Gates fan. well, its not horrible, but i really dislike it when a good solid metal band just "loses it".
i also think CD's should be no more than 10 bucks a piece. the metal CDs in my area are 20 and above. (30 for the Sonata Arctica, Hammerfall, and all the imports) |

| The only relatively well known band that don't charge over 10$ (by choice) for CD's are Fugazi, mainly due to Ian Mackaye having such a huge chip on his shoulder, but in the UK we don't get the benefit of it. |

Hi bossare & Guys
We technically it's not CD's
But I have been listening to to some tracks on MySpace pages.
This evening whaile I was here on the Forum,
I found a UK based artist called:
Alex Canadine
http://www.myspace.com/alexcanadine
There are (4) nice tracks with a diverse feel.
Santa Monica - is a nice acoustic mix with some heavier overtones.
Have a listen, I do while typing here.
I have also been listening to Nibla's tracks on MySpace
http://myspace.com/leshommesverts
And Not to forget Shortpunks in Love tracks on MySpace
http://myspace.com/shortpunksinlove
Both are active members of this forum.
Nice work guys. 
Regards Dr. Bob

Just discovered Vanilla Fudge,
I've been playing a greatest hits CD a lot lately.
It's just my type of music, I'd just never discovered them before.
A lot of the songs are dripping in overdriven Hammond, great stuff. I think many of them are covers, but brilliant nonetheless. To me they sound like a mixture of early Zappa, Turtles & Deep Purple.
Everything else on my iPod is old favourites - such as Wishbone Ash 'Argus', Iron Maiden 'Killers', Genesis 'Live 73', Scorpions 'Fly to the Rainbow' - I should really listen to more new bands.
'Rumplestiltskin Grinder' sounds interesting, I used to buy metal albums in the 80's based on the funniest songtitles I could find, - I got many duds but also found a few gems. Good to know bands are still thinking up the outrageous titles, well in fact I know some bands have gone beyond funny these days but I prefer the humourous ones

A new CD that has been spinning a lot is Carla Torgerson �Saint Strange�, she�s in �normal� life singer/guitarist in Walkabouts (also a great group).
I have also had a period of Tom Verlaine, played all of his solo efforts on vinyl and CD, this is really great music and he has a terrific guitar sound, clean Jazzmaster.
Comets on Fire�s latest ia also very good with nearly irritating fuzzed guitars.

Hi StratoSphere
That Jason Becker - Perpetual Burn, is great, still listening to it.
Thanks for the heads up....
BTW in case your counting, that's 3 -- HM-3's now.
Have to try setting up, a TRI-HM-3 setup...

I have been listening lately Dead Can Dance, no electric guitar involved, ja .
I mentioned it before but it really worth to mention again. There is a mexican group La Barranca, led by this guitar player Jose Manuel Aguilera. They are very very good. What I really like about Aguilera's guitar is that he uses different sounds and effects along the CD, and he knows how to use them.

Grace Jones - Slave to the Rhythm
I'm not generally a fan of GJ but I love the rhythm track on this album. It's more Rob'n'Raz than Grace Jones.
Johnny Winter - Captured Live
From Winter's rockier period. Well played but not the best live sound ever.
Wolfmother - Wolfmother
Australian 70s rock from 2006. I wish they hadn't worked so hard on the authentic 70s sound though. |
