Ok stop right there, this is like comparing retarded people.


Maiden totally rocked, AND could be really dumb at the same time. (find the lyrics for "Quest For Fire"...)

LB are so dumb you could go blind looking at the light of their stupidity.
Agreed - LB are a bunch o' We Todds, but wasn't "Quest for Fire" a Spinal Tap song? ;)

i'm instantly dumber having read 6 lines of that limp biscuit song.

Yup.


"So you'd better get some better beats
And uh, get some better rhymes (d'oh!)"



Beautiful.

Holy sh1t - I hadn't actually read the lyrics for "Quest for Fire" - that HAS to have been the driving force behind Spinal Tap's "Stonehenge"

i was listening to some thin lizzy the other day, and it was either "emerald" or "black rose (roisin dubh)" which evoked some strong tap tendencies.

SUM 41 LYRICS

"Slipping Away"

I'm slipping away
In every way
I can't stay awake
(and I don't know why)
I'm slipping away
(and I don't know why)

I'm trying to make it through each day
I'm falling apart now in every way
I'm finding it harder to get by
There's a hole in my heart
And I don't know why
Now I've come to realize

I'm slipping away

You know you can edit and not look like an ass bag until someone quotes you, right???

This is on par with the Papa Roach Cd that I tried listening to - once.

The Rocker
by Thin Lizzy

I am your main man if you're looking for trouble
I'll take no lip 'cause no ones tougher than me
If I kicked your face you'd soon be seeing double
Hey little girl, keep your hands off me 'cause I'm a rocker

I love to rock and roll
I get my records from the Rock On stall
Sweet rock and roll
Teddy boy, he's got them all

Down at the juke joint me and the boys were stompin'
Bippin' an a boppin', telling a dirty joke or two
In walked this chick and I knew she was up to something
I kissed her right there out of the blue

I said "Hey baby, meet me I'm a tough guy"
Got my cycle outside, you wanna try?
She just looked at me and rolled them big eyes
And said "Ooh I'd do anything for you 'cause you're a rocker"

That's right I'm a rocker

I love to rock and roll
I get my records from the Rock On stall
Sweet rock and roll
Teddy boy, he's got them all

I'm with you on the new stuff. It's radio-friendly formula punk. Somebody needs to clue these kids in. Punk is more than wearing a Ramones t-shirt while you perform.



Come on, The Clash? The Damned? The Stranglers?
You know those are not the bands I was talking about.

The Used
The Darkness
The Strokes
The Vines

Dude, please don't tell me you take the Darkness seriously enough to think they suck.

They're awesomely lame and hilarious. They made the best video last year for sure.

I feel like I need to get my intelligence level back up after having read most of the lyrics from that LB song. I think I really pissed some people off when I used the whole first section of this song as my yearbook entry my senior year in high school. Some great Suicidal Tendencies lyrics:

I scream at the sky, it's easier than crying
I'm shyish when I'm shouting out loud
I feel so alone in a room full of people
I'm loudist when I'm in a crowd
I'm alone, and nobody hears me
Can't nobody heal me, won't somebody help me
I'm alone, I just need
Someone to take my hand and pick me up when I'm feeling down
Someone to take my heart and give it a home
Someone to be with me and help me through the times when I'm
down and lonely
Someone to be with me when I'm alone
I'm alone, all alone
Alone is the way I live, it's not the way I want it but you
know
You can't give in, alone is the way I feel, it's so hard to
understand
Why I've got to be alone

If you look in my heart you'd see it
I'm trying to be something better
If you look in my heart you'd feel it
I've got to keep moving on
If you look in my heart you'd know it
I'm just trying to make my world better
If you look in my heart you'd see it
I got to do it alone

I've been down, I've been down
I've been down, down, down so low
I've been lost, so lost with no place left to go
I've had emotions, emotions that you better hope you never
know
Sometimes it feels like I just can't take no more

If you look in my heart you'd see it
I'm trying to be something better
If you look in my heart you'd feel it
I've got to keep moving on
If you look in my heart you'd know it
I'm just trying to make my world better
If you look in my heart you'd see it
I got to do it alone

Seems like things just keep getting further out of hand
Why can't for once things just go as I plan
How dare you, how dare you tell me that you understand
Let me tell you straight out, there ain't nobody here that can
I'm all alone, I'm so alone, to be alone, just leave me alone

If you look in my heart you'll see it
If you look in my heart you'd feel it
If you look in my heart you'd know it
I'm not trying to make no one bitter
I'm just alone, leave me alone, alone alone, now leave me

I've lived in places that you wouldn't never ever want to be
Places where for a minute you couldn't ever stand to be
I've seen things, I've seen things you'd never want to see
SO what gives, what gives you the right to be the judge of me
I'm all alone, I'm so alone, to be alone, just leave me alone

A room full of people, can't nobody help me, I'm alone
I just need someone to take my hand and pick me up when I'm
Feeling down, when I'm down
Someone to take my heart and give it a home, when I'm down
Someone to be with me and help me through the times
I'm down and lonely, when I'm down
Someone to be with me when I'm alone
I'm alone, all alone
Alone is the way I live, it's not the way I want it but I
Know I can't give in
Alone is the way I feel, there ain't nothing quite as sad as
A person that's alone

Here is some classic Clutch for you guys to marvel over.

This is from the song PURE ROCK FURY

"Hotter than Abba in Nevada sun in a real small car with the windows rolled up. No super trooper cause you pooped your pants and your screaming Oh please just give me one more chance."

Or how about some lyrics from Careful with that Mic.
This is even more appropriate because someone mentioned ice cream.

"mmmm...this is really good ice cream! You want some of it? Oh my bad didn't know you were lactose intolerant. Makes you pass gas frightens all the girls away."

This thread is getting way better than I thought it would be. I am loving reading all the opinions.

I will say the riff on that song is fairly good but the lyrics and vocals make me want to turn the other way and run.

Clutch are strange guys. Really cool, just weird and quiet. I toured w/ them for a month and we hardly spoke.

here's another rock fantasy job (a bit long but funny all the same):

The Marshall Plan by Blue Oyster Cult:

In a dark horse town, in the middle of the west
Where Friday takes so long to arrive
Johnny wakes up dreaming turns on the radio
The he jumps up plays his guitar in the mirror
Starts his day with a rock and roll pose
Tonight's the night that Susie and he
Are going to a rock and roll show

Tonight! I'm gonna see some rock and roll!
Yeah, my favorite group is playing!
Tonight! I'm gonna see some rock and roll!

Well it's showtime and he's caught up in the crowd
He hates the crush but he loves the music loud
He reaches out and Susie's disappeared,
Now Johnny's standing on a corner after the show
Looking for his Susie dear
But there goes his Susie - in the band's limousine!
Yeah, well that's the way it goes at these rock and roll shows

That's the way it goes - it's rock and roll
That's the way it goes - it's rock and roll

Now Susie's gone, and Johnny hears the thunder
As he rolls another number and he counts
He counts the times he's felt himself to be the hero
'Cause ever since he was a boy
He's heard about adventure
As he looks into the mirror now he knows
He must be the star and play guitar like thunder
Find Susie at his rock and roll show

Boy, if I only had a good guitar and a big amp
Boy, it wouldn't be somebody else taking my girl away...tell ya
I know what I should do...I'll put an ad in the paper
Get a few other guys who want to play as much as I do
Tell ya, I ain't playin' no surf music
I'm gonna play some heavy music
I'm gonna play bad
I'm gonna play loud
I know just what I want it to sound like
It's gonna sound like...
It's gonna sound like...

This is Don Kirshner
And tonight on Don Kirshner's Rock Concert
A new phenomenon in the music world
With six million albums to his credit in just two short years
My good friend, here's Johnny!

Now Johnny became a legend in his time
Found it easier to live in pain
Half a hero in a hard-hearted game
Now it's showtime and he's caught up in the flow
He hates the rush but he needs the music so
Still he reaches out but Susie's disappeared
Well that's the way it goes at these rock and roll shows

It's rock and roll
That's the way it goes - It's rock and roll

Strange but awesome bill. Pantera is one of my favorite metal bands. neurosis sounds WAY familiar. I will have to look into your band and see if I recognize any of your songs.

It's all opinion. Harping on someone for musical taste is like harping on them for what food they like or don't like.



BTW - Jim Croce rocks.

EXACTLY!!!! Thats the point I'm always trying to make with my Rum Raisin Ice Cream theory!
