Nail Soup Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Cuts Across the Land, debut album by the Duke Spirit. I love the sounds the two guitars make in this band.... everything else is great too though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Power Trip - Live In Seattle I'm not a massive Power Trip fan, but I can see why folk like them and after their singer's untimely passing this week, thought I'd buy an album for his family.

Black Emperor" started it, and it is somewhat similar, yet totally different. Those two songs might not be the most accessible to start out with though, but you might still like them, I'll recommend "Mountains Made of Steam" and "God Bless Our Dead Marines", from, in my opinion, their best album, "Horses in the Sky". They altered their band name several times, they started out with the name "The Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra-La-La Band", and is currently going under the name "The Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra", other names they have gone by are variations on that. Here's four of my favorite songs by them: Edited September 2, 2020 by Baloney Balderdash 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be checking out a few more of your suggestions by them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odysseus Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Traditionally-inspired Indian metal. Really stoked for these guys that they got to play at Wacken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyJohnson Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 While I'll admit Band On The Run and Wings Over America rank highly in my favourites, I've never really been a Beatles fan (a few songs) nor do I really know much about McCartney's output post-Beatles. Last night I put together a playlist of everything I could find on Spotify in chronological order and I'm about ten songs in so far and the only one I know so far is Maybe I'm Amazed.

I must have bought the earlier stuff as exploring the catalogue. In the days before you could use Spotify to cheat. Edited September 4, 2020 by Richard R Later stuff is better...

NancyJohnson Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Today I'm just leaving Japan on. I procured a CD yonks back of some recordings from 1977 that pre-date the first album and that's on now. I'll profess I've never actually fully listened to these recordings until now and they're excrutiatingly awful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nothingman Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Oh man. Less than a week ago, one of my bandmates decided to announce that he discovered the work of The Bevis Frond. He found them via Teenage Fanclub covering one of their songs. And I can see why Fannies cover them! All week I have been on a deep dive into their back catalogue. They seem to be a mash of lot of my favourite bands with some beautifully crafted songs. If anybody is into them, then please let me know. Can't believe I have lived without knowing of these guys. 2020 is blooming great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm quite partial to a bit of Frond, a friend of mine is a huge fan. We used to cover a couple of their (his ?) tunes when we were in a band together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve actually taken some inspiration for name ideas for our new project from a couple of the dong titles. Our WhatsApp group is a hive of activity today!

I'm sure my old band did a couple, but this is the one that sticks in the mind "Pass me that paisley horsehair shirt" Priceless Edited September 4, 2020 by ahpook Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
