Ace of Base? Man, if there's a sound that I associate exclusively with 1994, it's Ace of Base. >_>

Had Daughtry- No surprise stuck in my head most of the day. There is only one solution to that.

311- Down

Haven't heard a 311 song I like in the least besides this. And 90% of the value in this song is in the first 30 seconds or so and the repeat of that around 1:30 or so.

That's kinda funny since the album that's on is so very repetitive.

Yeah! It's like the musical equivalent of Cheetos. But y'know, Cheetos are tasty every now and then.

Long as it's better than Amber, Miki. That song sucks and sucks bad.

Tool- Schism. Good song that needed at least three minutes cut off on it. Didn't help that it got grossly overplayed on the radio when it came out.

APC's way better than Tool, outside of Sober.

decided to listen to all my music in alphabetical order.

311
3 doors down
ace of base

turns out a lot of musicians have a bunch of songs that all sound the same. fortunately I've landed on Aerosmith, which does not present that problem to a great degree.

Did we listen to the same band? I've always been underwhelmed by Aerosmith, outside of a couple songs (principally Dream On). Granted, I suppose they're less guilty of this than the other bands you listed.

I think there was an entire South Park episode dedicated to making the same point.

Agreed. Sober is the only Tool song I ever liked.

EDIT: Though, credit where it's due, that one song where they rant in scary German for four minutes and the lyrics turn out to be a cookie recipe was pretty funny.

In fairness, South Park made the year 1996. But pretty much. Trey Parker and Matt Stone don't seem to like Des Moines much either.

Siouxsie & the Banshees - Painted Bird

A Kiss In The Dreamhouse is quite possibly the most elegant album in their discography.

Yoshiken · « **Reply #907 on:** September 19, 2009, 02:10:11 PM »

Coldplay - Viva la Vida

I still love the symbolism in this song. The video in particular makes it pretty epic.

--> Guns N' Roses - Locomotive.

I still prefer a lot of the lesser known GnR songs to some of the more famous ones. (That said, my favourite of theirs will probably always be their cover of Sympathy for the Devil, followed by November Rain, but ehh.)

As in Georg MDef epic?

Björk - The Modern Things

This isn't epic, but I still can't get over the imagery of a pack of cars standing over a mountain and looking down on dinosaurs as they frolic around eating other living beings.

They don't like much of anything, really.

That's the underlying point, yes.

Godsmack - Keep Away.

Fits right now, will not fit in three hours when I am at the birthday party of the nephews. Augh.

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #912 on:** September 19, 2009, 02:49:53 PM »

Wouldn't it fit -better- then? In any case, brooms are your friends. Your brother won't be afterwards, though, but you're dealing with children.

Björk - I Miss You

Last time I tried a broom the younger one broke it.

Man, they're good. You probably need actual war artillery then.

Björk - Cover Me

The older one has inherited my ability to move quieter than most anyone else at crucial/funny moments and is also oddly strong despite being made of twigs.

The younger one will likely end up a football player and shows the capability to impact things with a ferocious power.

My solution will be leading them to another uncle and let him deal with them.

Nightwish - Poet and the Pendulum

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #916 on:** September 19, 2009, 03:01:50 PM »

I really, really hope my nephews will inherit our side of the family when it comes to physical prowess. Your average toddler already beats me at armwrestling, I don't need one to be able to snap my neck with two fingers by accident.

You both suck. Tool is really good and the length of the tracks is really good (they vary a lot with short and really long songs unlike other bands that go for the really long stuff). Lateralus in it's entirety is a fantastic album that should be listened in whole. 10,000 Days is pretty good as a whole also.

Die Eire Von Satan is fucking awesome though. Hash Brownies made without eggs.

Hey, it's not our fault Tool made boring music.
