As a lover of all things prog, I never really got into C&C. Was never really heavy enough and didn't enjoy the singing all that much. Might have to give them another listen though since it has been a couple of years since giving them a fair go...WarmBeer said:Coheed and Cambria - The Afterman: Ascension (wow, possibly the wankiest full album/artist combination I've ever typed out)
Nice prog rock/pop. Not as dark and moody as their earlier stuff, but a step above the last 2 albums.
Start with III, then move on to IV (they've both got longer, wankier, names, but I don't wish to pound my fingers to stumps typing them in).sponge said:As a lover of all things prog, I never really got into C&C.

True. I'm talking about 'Farm' and' I bet on Blue Sky' (or something like that) many brewskies drunk now :super:thedragon said:Dinosaur jr... awesome. Where you been and without a sound (released around '95, just before I think) are my favorites. Get on to them if you don't already have them.
You're not entirely wrong but Badmotorfinger had other moments as well. Jesus Christ Pose was definitely the highpoint (of the genre).Lecterfan said:I was the same with Soundgarden. Like the component parts were better than the whole. I saw the Jesus Christ Pose film clip and thought I'd found my new fave band, but then I discovered they didn't actually have anything other than that one song that conveyed the same feel/attitude. Dull.
I always preferred Saturday night to Friday night. Saturday night still hadn't changed much when I was last watching it with anything approaching regularity from when I was watching it in those days. You could still count on seeing Sabotage and Come To Daddy EVERY WEEK.Lecterfan said:I think a lot of that period was the same. It was a ripe time for Rage, you could see a whole 7 hours of heavy music raging from sonic youth to pantera etc and it was all accepted (to some degree), but then after bands like Tad and The Mark of Cain stopped getting airplay and it was all AIC, Smashing Pumpkins etc it took on a different vibe (for me), and there was an unnecessary split of the guitar bands.
That fat groove from Outshined was pretty good. I refuse to acknowledge anything they did after Superunknown.Lecterfan said:Yea. As I said, I was much the same - heard this song, went 'wow' and then....nothing. I was the same with Soundgarden. Like the component parts were better than the whole.

Face Pollution and Room a Thousand Years Wide are great songs off that album.bum said:You're not entirely wrong but Badmotorfinger had other moments as well. Jesus Christ Pose was definitely the highpoint (of the genre).
