Music: Metal/Punk Rock

[Mizmazzle]

I played Blues for the Red Sun today while I was clearing snow. Every album of theirs is brilliant.

@neph93 @whiskeyriver @Oaktavia

Been blasting a few records today inspired by discussion here…

1994 pressing I came across a few months back on a trip to New Orleans

In my opinion the coolest album cover in the Punk/ Metal realm…

[Oaktavia]

@Mizmazzle Awesome!!!

[Oaktavia]

I am currently reading NOFX: The Hepatitis Bathtub and Other Stories and my dudes I figured it would be crazy but these stories are insane. Punk as fuck to say the least.

I have a stack of books to read on my dresser and next in line is Do What You Want: The Story of Bad Religion.

[Mizmazzle]

@Oaktavia I’ve been wanting to read that NoFX book.

[Oaktavia]

@Mizmazzle I love NOFX but I was skeptical it would be worth the read. 100 pages in I 100% recommend.

[Tago Mago]

@Oaktavia that book is hilarious and disturbing in equal measures. Also recommend "Anarchy Evolution - Faith, Science and Bad Religion in a world without god" by Greg Graffin. Really interesting read

[Oaktavia]

@Tago-Mago I saw that one too and will add that to my list! Thanks

[Mizmazzle]

Any one listen to Thee Oh Sees (or any of the other spellings of their name)

[Aetas]

I do @Mizmazzle

@Aetas said in Music:

They changed their name often in the past years: Orinoka Crash Suite, OCS, Orange County Sound, The Ohsees, The Oh Sees, Thee Oh Sees and Oh Sees.

The concert was on ARTE, a French/German television channel. The link is broken, so you better go here:

I do as well @Mizmazzle

[Luijim78]

good morning, happy St. Patrick's Day

[Oaktavia]

@Luijim78 hah thanks for reminding me it is St. Patrick's Day. 10 years ago I would be on my second or third shot of whiskey by now. 9am.

[Mizmazzle]

@mclaincausey I’ve been trying to catch them live for years and years. They never seem to come to Denver…until now!! 9/11 at the Ogden!

[prpx]

@Mizmazzle - big fan of all iterations of thee oh sees

[Mizmazzle]

@prpx they’re so damn good!!

[popvulture]

Oh man nice, they’re good now. The 2 drummer setup is rad. I think this lineup is tied with the Petey Dammit / Brigid days for my fave.

[Mizmazzle]

@popvulture have you seen them? I’ve heard their shows are crazy high energy.

[popvulture]

@Mizmazzle probably a dozen times if I had to guess — for whatever reason they're almost like the official band of Austin, despite not being from here. Definitely super high energy, always worth going. Dwyer brings it. You'll enjoy!

[Mizmazzle]

@popvulture hell yeah man. I’ve been a fan for like 7-8 years. Been trying to catch them seriously for about 5-6 years and their tours never come to Denver of all places. I almost went down to Albuquerque a couple times.

Except why do they have to be playing on a Wednesday night?? Don’t they know I have school in the morning? Weekday shows are so hard for this old man these days.
