    see my previous thread, epitonic.com

    as for songs that I cant stop listening to at the moment, and are therefore "must have":

    Spiritualized - The Slide Song or Let It Flow
    Blackalicious - As The World Turns
    Outkast - Da Art Of Storytellin' 1&2
    Airfix - Stories
    Funki Porcini - Purrfect
    Mogwai - Honey
    and sure why not Kenny Roberts - I Just Dropped In (or whatever the real title is)

    and America? nah get Neil Youngs cover.

    New album by the Avalanches is worth checking out
    Calexico's last single was brilliant.
    There's a new compilation on Blue Note out featuring the best of their blue break series. It's got stuff from buddy rich, cannonball adderly and that Three is the Magic Number song that TV3 have flogged to death.
    And if you have a record player try and get yourself a copy of the new Burnin' Love Jumpsuit 7".

    Metallica - Enter Sandman, Hero Of The Day
    Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
    Bon Jovi - Living On A Prayer, Bad Medicine
    Aerosmith - Dude (looks like a lady)
    Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
    The Troggs - Wild Thing
    Black Sabbath - Paranoid
    The Wallflowers - One Headlight, Heroes
    ZZ Top - Viva Las Vegas
    AC/DC - Highway To Hell, Touch too much

    each one a classic smile.gif

    Fear can sometimes be a useful emotion. For instance, let's say you're an astronaught on the moon and you fear that your partner has been turned into Dracula. The next time he goes out for the moon pieces, wham! You just slam the door behind him and blast off. He might call you on the radio and say he's not Dracula, but you just say, "Think again, bat man."
    hello.

    Smashing Pumpkins - Today

    First of all:
    <font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Hey whats you songs are must have?</font>
    WHAT??? I think you're trying to say "What songs do you have that are "Must Have's" Please read before posting - that sentence makes no sense. No - I'm not flaming - just pointing out...

    Metallica - Master of Puppets / One / King Nothing
    Slipknot - Eyeless / Wait and Bleed / Switch
    Soulfly - Tribe / No / Bleed (I've just started listening to these guys and they rule!)
    Manic Street Preachers - Faster / No Surface All Feeling / You Love Us / PCP
    Nirvana - Pennyroyal Tea / Tourettes / Territorial Pi$$ings / All Appologies / Smells Like Teen Spirit
    Smashing Pumpkins - Today / Zero / Bullet With Butterfly Wings / Soma / Mayonaise


    All the best!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 221 ✭✭black_wizardd


    Thin Lizzy -> The Cowboy Song, Roisin Dubh (you NEED to get this song, it's absolutley incredible to say the very least), Emerald, Massacre, Cold Sweat, Parisienne Walkways (Gary Moore) etc etc.

    Metallica -> Creeping Death, Ride Ze Lightning, Master, Fade To Black, Sanitarium, One, The Four Horsemen (my personal fav) etc etc.

    Iron Maiden -> Hallowed be Thy Name, The Trooper, Aces High, The Prophecy, Phantom of The Opera, Fear of The Dark etc etc.

    Pantera -> Floods, Cemetary Gates, Hollow (their all mellow enough tunes, don;t get over heavy).

    Ozzy -> Mr Crowley, Crazy Train (anything from the rhandy rhoads tribute)

    Classic Rock -> Romeo & Juliet (Dire Straits)...

    Ah, I won't even start, to stressful trying to think of them all.

    I've tryed to keep the list mellow enough, nothing up there is *to* heavy (if there's such a thing, not in my book smile.gif).

    But oh, no tears please, fear and pain may acompany death, but it is desire that sheperds its certainty, as we shall see...
