What artist/song are you listening to RIGHT NOW?

[Sundrop]

The name reminds me of the Bob Seger song

They do respect her... but,
They love to watch her... strut

Check them out!

 

[swiftdog2.0]

Check them out!

Reminds me of Jet.

Not terrible though.

As far as newer bands go my favorite is Royal Blood!

 

[DiO'Bolic]

 

[Cowboy]

The Dead South (Canadian group and quite awesome). Listening to Banjo Odyssey

Tell it Gunslinger, great to see your posts here too!

This song was seriously heavy for its time, I love his over-the-top acting, it really completes the performance

I've been listening to Quadrophenia. Here is a magnificent Pete Townshend solo version of Drowned from The Secret Policeman's Ball. I don't think the film (Secret Policeman's Ball) has ever been released on dvd.

I want to start a progressive jazz/rock band where all the members wear costumes, sorta like slipknot, except instead of the masks being overly edgy horror themed kinda things they’re Marti Gras inspired outfits similar to what the Beatles wore with Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band.

I can imagine the saxophone player would wear a Plague Doctor’s outfit, but instead of being a black dreary outfit, it’s bright green and glittery with a huge feather coming off the hat. The saxophone can come off the beak of his mask

thats interesting

i want the music to be a mix of funk, swing, jazz from various decades, and psychedelia. I think funky bass and drum lines, swing guitar, jazzy second guitar along with a saxophone and trumpet player and snapping, with a vocalist who sounds like Frank Sinatra or Aretha Franklin. If that even makes sense, I’d think it’d sound cool but it would be extremely complicated for me to do as someone with very mediocre guitar skills and one and a half years experience with a saxophone that I haven’t played in four years. The problem is Id love to be able to play music, I’m just not dedicated to practicing.

Yep. I don't so much play guitar as I do play some songs on guitar, if ya ken.

8: Rock’n’Roll Lifestyle (Motorcade of Genereosity)
7: Mexico (Prolonging the Magic)

2: Wheels (Pressure Chief)
1: Frank Sinatra (Fashion Nugget)

And for their albums:

Showroom of Compassion (2011)

Comfort Eagle (2001)
Pressure Chief (2004)
B-sides and Rarities (2007)
Prolonging the Magic (1998)
Fashion Nugget (1996)

I don’t usually listen to alternative, but I’d highly recommend checking these guys out if you haven’t already. I mean, what other rock band has an official trumpet player?

They do some pretty good cover songs too, I like their covers of War Pigs by Black Sabath and I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor.

 

[Wayoftheredpanda]

Incredible cover, too bad the original singer didn’t approve of it do to the added curse words

Tommy turned 50 yesterday

This is an interesting Cake song, it’s an instrumental with footage of one of those so-called faith healers preaching over it, but the audio of the guy is speaking is edited to go along with the beat, so it’s practically a rap, but not really
