That's great.
Haven't listened to the new one entirely yet, but I really like their work.
Do not care about the folks bashing them. They are a great band.
I have a 6 string, a 7 string and an 8 string.
The first one is an Epiphone SG, the second is a 7 String Les Paul Classic (Epiphone as well) and the third is an Ibanez RG8.
Pretty versatile.
I would like a strat as well someday and I would really love to have a Variax at some point.
Greta Van Fleet reminds me of these guys... Flymore. Or, the Russian Korn.
it's so blatant it borders on bizarre. And to think these guys opened for Korn in Russia once. Imagine that...
If they did this like 20 years from now, they would be hailed as innovators. But they chose an active band...
I'm torn on them.
I mean... yeah, they are a blantant copy cat and even Robert Plant got mad because they don't acknowledge Zep and the the frontman said he is influenced by 70's Aerosmith, that's a joke right?
I have two points that I would like to make (pro and con)
1. Pro - Cool to see...
Going to post a lot of songs. I'm not really guilty of liking any of them, it's just that they're more pop than what I listen to regularly, but I genuinely like these songs and I love threads like this.
I do like it, but since I saw some unpopular opinions I'll give mine:
Mate Feed Kill Repeat is the best Slipknot album that exists, even though it's not a proper album. I was really sad that they never incorporated that jazzy stuff into the newer records. it sounded like a chaotic mix between...
No. They are great hard rock albums much more in the vein of Corrosion of Conformity than trying to emulate grunge and alternative rock of that time.
Where the wild things are, alone, makes Reload worthy.
People just love to hate them.
I'm going to hijack these thread to look for recommendations. I'm a fan of gangsta rap from the early nineties. I like that sound, I like the way they rap, etc.
Old Snoop, Dre, NWA, Public Enemy, Ice Cube, Ice T, etc.
I also really enjoy Kanye West for some reason...but it's already old...
It would be really funny if Fender bought 'em.
I don't know... maybe PRS could buy them? It would be a great fit I guess. I don't really know the market value of any of these. Or if a more modern brand bought them, like Ibby, and started to release all kinds of crazy Gibsons with larger scales...
Slap a Gibson headstock on Epiphones and sell them as an entry level Gibson. Just keep the Epiphone name for their classic models that don't have a Gibson equivalent.
Watching Kiss Meets the Phantom movie in the 90's made me love rock. Listening to Black Sabbath's firsr albums for the first time made me love the darker side. It just got heavier and heavier from there. Mom was a total rocker. Mom, thank you for the influences, wherever you are right now. Now...
I'm 34 and I still feel like a kid whenever I find a new song or band I love. And this is arguably the best time of my life to be a music fan. So much variety. I have nostalgia for many things but I still think that a great chunk of the stuff I love was made in the past ten years. Open your...
