timeless= not dated.. maybe a bad choice of word on my part.
#1202 Re: The Garden » NEW MEMBERS introduce yourself here » 869 weeks ago
well.. i guess i forgot to introduce myself...
my name is dave.. i live in alton, nh.. i'm 30 with a wife and 2 lil girls
i was a member of htgth waaaaaay back in high school.. back in it's infancy... but the only time i could get on the computer was during study hall @ school...
more recently i went by "bandonox" (as i do everywhere but here, strangely)
on CD.com..i lurked over there for a loooong time before joining... i stumbled onto evo when talking about some things were frowned upon ... i love it here, and look forward to great convo with all y'all... "i like football, porno and books about war".. i have a blog with all sortsa gay shit.. politics, music, sports.. bandonox.blogspot.com ... i'm pretty opinionated and passionate about the things i'm into and tend to rant and ramble...and use the period key instead of commas... i dunno why

i think the republican party knew mccain couldn't win to begin with and brought in palin in a last ditch effort to do 2 things..
1. a last gasp grab at the hillary voters
2. to blame everything on when they lost...

everyone knows the basics, pre-'90....
rules:
1. released after 1989
2. no guns n' roses, fanboys/girls
3. ...and why?
i'll start it off with a not-so obvious one
Down... NOLA
while over the under is great...classic even, 13 years after it's release, NOLA still sounds like it was made last year. and NONE of the songs ever get old IMO....and OTU doesn't even come close to matching the energy level and tightness of that record...
phil was still speaking in complete sentences... and when he spoke, he sounded like one of us.. not the one word per minute- pontificating "metal god" he would ultimately become.. that record has the best elements of all it's parts... coc's sabbathy riffola.. the crowbar sludge and the half scream-half singing phil in ALL his glory... catchy, heavy, and timeless...

thanks, solo... i bet you guys thought i was gonna be one of those "hey! do you guys know where i can find me some leaks?" guys....
and hopefully, i'll be around to post a shit ton of replies in many of your threads to come...cheers
#1209 Re: Guns N' Roses » On the Eve of Democracy, Where's Axl? » 869 weeks ago
but therein lies the problem.. gnr is inevitably going to be marketed to mainstream modern rock fans... "if the world" is NOT what they're gonna want... i think it's great, but my taste in music isn't that of a normal person. I agree that anything on AFD or UYI is timeless... i still sing along to every word of coma in my car like i did 16 years ago. but i'm a fanboy.. always have been. a fanboy that is capable of thinking outside of my fan-boy-ness, but a fan boy nonetheless... i'm thinking in terms of someone who's been outta the loop all this time. and while the material doesn't stack up to those two records in MY mind, some of them have major potential to be big hits in this day and age.... you gotta think, to people other than the hardcore motherfuckers... AFD was perfect at the time for the mainstream... UYI was an ambitious project by a band that was on the verge of being the next Zeppelin/stones/aerosmith.. and CD is being released to an entirely different musical climate. It'll go platinum on name recognition alone...and while there's no "sweet child" or "november rain" on it... a couple of those songs blow the current top 10 radio songs outta the water.... then again, i confess... i don't really listen to the radio all that much because 95% of what i hear is trash

i also think that we have been listening to better, catcher, "the blues" etc for a looong time. I believe that's diminished our capacity to judge the songs properly. As much as i love any song, i end up killing it due to heavy rotation. The first 100 or so times i listened to those songs, i was completely in love with them... now... i'm like..."eh.."
Most people haven't heard any of this shit, and i can honestly say, they may have one of those "kashmir" type songs among them...
Most likely better... i even think rolling stone reviewed the leak a while back..
they said something like... "it tries to be both the poppiest and the heaviest gnr song ever and accomplishes both"
i realize RS are kinda axl nutswingers, but christ... that original set of leaks have been in and out of my playlist regularly for the last 3 years...
so of course i don't feel the same magic i did when i heard it then...
EDIT* On a side note... my 11 year old daughter has better on her ipod..
she listens to the fucking jonas bros,demi lavrto, selina gomez, taylor swift, Tpain, akon and ashley fucking tisdale and she LOVES that song..
