Standing in the way of control - Gossip

Touch me I'm sick - Mudhoney

Danger High Voltage - Electric Six

Thunderbird - Seasick Steve

The ones you get bombarded with on social media are always deliberately controversial because it gets engagement and people replying to say how bad it is gets them bumped up the algorithm rankings. That's why a "Hardcore punks top 5 songs ranked" list will have Ed Sheeran at number 1.

Twisted Transistor - Korn

I'm enjoying some Black Sabbath this morning and reading an old interview with Tony Iommi. He says that Lennon was a huge influence on him in the early days of Sabbath. That surprised me, when I listen to Sabbath (which I do a lot) I don't hear Beatles. Maybe Beatles had a metal phase which I missed.

Just don't go doing a bit of DIY wiring unless you are absolutely positive they are fully discharged.

Intergalactic - Beastie Boys

Supersonic - Oasis

Mystery Man - Tom Petty (I think)

No one knows - Queens Of The Stone Age

James Bond - Iggy Pop

New Rose - The Damned

Stuck in the middle with you- Steelers Wheel

Although I never really got in to the Beatles, the majority of bands I really like name them as a major influence so for that reason, I am grateful that they made the music they did. Same goes for Little Richard, Jefferson Airplane, PJ Harvey, Cream and the original blues musicians from the deep south. I don't remember any of them mentioning Elvis as an influence.

Frost Hammer - High On Fire

Girl on fire - Alicia Keys Possibly the worst pop song of the last decade.

The Beatles were just a second rate Oasis. Lennon would have been nothing if he hadn't ripped off the Gallagher brothers

I've just started learning Liar by Rollins Band. I was listening to it earlier and it sounded like an interesting bass part

With Teeth - Nine Inch Nails

Rollin - Limp Bizkit It's an awful song but one of their best!

I wish I'd known about this when I had my Trace amp. They could have fixed it and sorted the cooling issues. Putting the cooling fan intake right next to the hot air exhaust wasn't a great engineering decision.

Yes yes YES!

I'd like all effects pedal manufacturers to standardise on input, output and power socket positions. It would make it much easier to wire boards neatly. What would be really nice is a wire free design with pedals clip on to the board with all connections integrated.
