@Max:

Has anyone seen Motorhead lately? They're playing here on wednesday but the last shows I've seen were pretty, well, slow…

That's fact - but Lemmy is (like everyone) only a human and can't wipe off his age and the decades of drug- and alcohol abuse.
Blessedly, I've saw them a lot of times in the 80's and 90's .. loud, fast and dirty!  \m/

Best frontman out there imo.

About time punk resurfaced given the current climate. At last a bit of fucking indignation. Too much boring obediant shit music around these days.

^^^ Jason Williamson (Sleaford Mods) is terrific

Just learned something interesting in history class that relates to both music and political correctness. The experimental musician, John Cage, was sponsored by the CIA during the cold war because the CIA wanted to promote US interests and values by spreading non-political US music throughout the world. So, by design, this is about as non-political as it gets and the most appropriate for politically sensitive audiences.

Normally the UK Christmas Number 1 is an X-Factor type pop record. This year they've got competition from Noel Fielding, Idris Elba and Kasabian! :o

Godspeed, Lemmy.

Here's a great song about Woody Guthrie:

Like this guy's sardonic sense of humor.

Tom Petty….

And now for a word of universal peace and brotherhood from the confederate soldier Hank Williams Jr….

My 'pathological obsession' for denim, garments & shoes curbs my other hobbies    … the only record, which I bought in the last months was the new CLUTCH album - but this is top notch

Check out Uncle ACid and the Deadbeats for some SAbbath stonery doomy type thing

^^ And a good choice it was! I also bought just a few records this year. Baroness' Purple is still not unwrapped as I just got home and couldn't play vinyl at my parents. But I look very forward to that one.

By the way, great Avatar @beerhammer.
