the single most albums for an artist I have (well it's all digital but ya get the idea) is by Frank Zappa with David Bowie a close second. not sure what it says though...
Cray button sounds cool. Tech with a punk influence - reminds me of Cobra Starship. Me likey. What other songs are really good?
FF5 - Try Chainsaw/wobble for newer stuff.. For older FF5 try - get your back off the wall/country gentlemen/radiator
FF5 put on a good show too. they invented their own synthesizer for on stage. It has big light up panels that one of the member hits with big hulk hands.
Family Force 5 is a party rock band. They are Christians and try to make fun songs without the negative or sexually explicit lyrics.
Ohh, I see. . geeeh. Thanks lad. I really thought that it is a DJ thing. And nice band. I will try to check their songs specially the lyrics because I was trying to be as song writer too.
Pearl Jam (obviously), Nine Inch Nails, Soundgarden, Toadies, Foo Fighters - basically 90's rock before it all started sucking.
Australian music nowadays...Boy and Bear, Missy Higgins and Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunipingu, an incredibly talented blind indigenous singer - you'll find clips of him with Sting and Elton John. And I'm captive to whatever my teenage daughter chooses on FM when I'm driving. Aggggggggggggggggggggggggggggh!!!!!! Am I getting old?
Dude, that list without Alice In Chains constitutes blasphemy you know. That should have read Alice In Chains (obviously)...
Forgot the Oils. I first saw Midnight Oil in the Charlton Pub, Perth, West Australia..........when I was somewhere around 23 and on a Nullabor crossing from the eastern states. So maybe 1976/7? Peter Garrett doing his incredible gyrations and he had a bald head way back then! Power and the Passion, Blue Sky Mine and Beds are Burning. A very political band with a driving powerful sound.
I have a digital music archive of 1.3 million songs (all legal, tyvm), dating from early 1900s wax cylinders all the way up to 1994. I stopped there, because 99.9% of music created since then has been absolute crap. If i had to pick favorites: Mike Oldfield, Dream Theater, Pink Floyd, Rush, Led Zeppelin, Nicholas RImsky-Korsakov, and a few hundred old dead classical/jazz guys that almost nobody remembers. I was a music major during one of my trips thru college, so that explains my music snobbery. As far as instruments, I play: piano/synths/keyboards, acoustic (fingerstyle) & electric guitar, trumpet and vibraphone.
The theme from Captain Pugwash (BBC) about a sea captain and his crew members that I watched in the early sixties....but someone has changed the credits. Ahem.
