In response to jazzbo's post I thought I'd take the opportunity to tell you all about the 6 cd's I bought over the weekend. I am a very compulsive music buyer and I buy at least one cd a week but I had some extra b-day money left and I decided to go crazy. P.O.D. - Satellite:Better than their first album. I can't get enough "Alive" no maetter how much I hear it on the radio, MTV, and my cd player. Staind - Break The Cycle:Bass is boring. Tons of character in the slow songs and energy in the fast ones. Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory:WARNING: Causes involuntary headbanging. Alien Ant Farm - ANThology:What I like to call "Funny, feel good rock." Bush - Sixteen Stone: Classic. Some of my favorite songs(Comedown, Machinehead, Glycerine) Ben Folds - Rockin the Suburbs: The mistake music buy of my life. I had only heard the "played out" single which, come to find out is the only good song on the whole cd; at least for my taste. My friend likes it though. He's a pothead who's in to "chill" music.
I just bought four yesterday: Jaco - His first, which was just rereleased with liner notes from Pat Methany and two new tracks - very cool. Miles Davis - Kind if Blue. A classic what can I say. Weather Report - Heavy Weather. Very good, Jaco kicks a##, but the Oberheim can be a bit too much at times. And lastly 311's new one. I like them, and I think this CD is their strongest one since the blue album.
I've been trying to get myself to buy a Jaco album but every time I go I see a modern album of a band I like and can't resist. BTW, that 311 album kicks ass. I got it about a month ago and it hasn't come out of my cd player. My fave song is "From Chaos"
I have done the same. Hopefully, reapeat warnings will end this unnecessary tragedy from happening in the future.
Besides the fact I think they're making lousy music these days... ...It seems that your purchase of the CD has shrouded your ability to see sarcasm, and has thinned your skin quite a bit. Perhaps if you sold it...
