Isn't Twiggy back though? Anyways I'm not a huge fan of MM to begin with but I like his cover of Personal Jesus.

Anyways, anybody have any opinion on Twilight of the Thundergod by Amon Amarth? I've heard the title song but nothing else and was wondering if it was worth a purchase.

I don't know, I've not followed him since he left. Personal Jesus? I didn't like that song, me likes older Manson.

I was a huge grunge fan, still am. But I never cared much for Nirvana. Don't hate it, don't love it. But I did have a friend who really like Nirvana. One morning his sister walks in his room and says: "happy birthday, oh by the way, kurt cobain is dead" and then closed his door. He was not a happy birthday boy.

Never liked Greenday, but I could tolerate them up until the album after Dookie. And it really bugs me when people say they're punk rock.

It's usually drugs.

Favorite songs:
Nutshell - alice in chains (awesome album altogether)
hunger strike - temple of the dog (another awesome album)
comfortably numb - pink floyd
fake plastic trees - radiohead
Can't decide on which pearl jam song I like best.

I have other all-time favorites, but can't recall what they are right now.

As far as innovative bands go, I hear so many songs that seem to have roots from david bowie's music. Now he's a legend, the world just copies him. Speaking of Bowie, anyone ever seen that video where he sings with Mr. Rogers?

First time I heard Kings of Leon (on The Tonight show I think), I hated them. But the more I listen to "sex on fire", the more I like the song.

I still listen to a lot of rock, but the past year or so I've been getting into more urban beat type stuff, and I hate hip hop.


For all of us who think we're becoming "old hippies", I realized I've become the old guy the day I noticed I don't like mainstream rock and found a Buick an attractive car. It's a depressing feeling when I skate with a bunch of high-schoolers all the time.

This one is catchy--- in English it means "Glad to See You!"

I think everyone in North Korea knows this song.

Mortal Kombat
Otherworld -FFX
Anything Metallica wrote before 2004 that wasn't slow paced
Anton Aus Tirol
Der Trabi und Trabant
Es steht ein Haus in Ostberlin
Lola Rennt OST
Manowar
Bruce Faulconer

Though I've only heard Lola Rennt in the past year or so. I don't listen to music really, or see anything without a function for that matter very much (art in general). Music in games = good.

Robert Johnson: Hellhound on my Trial

That song is 1936, so its not a cover of Children of Bodem.

Coldplay stole the melody of Vida la vida( or whatever ) From Satch's Fly in a blue dream, It is an exact copy.

Light, refreshing taste.
