What, you talk'n bout Wolf Moon? It's not a vampire/wolf thing to me. Each album is unique from the others. IMO, they're getting better with age, Slow Deep & Hard was great, but Life Is Killing Me is phenominal. They've got "themes" for each album, Bloody Kisses being a gothic overtone, while October Rust seemed more Pagan/Wiccan. (w00t)

Or you could say 'where is my mind' I love 'goin out west' by Tom Waits. Cos I got hair on my chest and look good without a shirt on. Will anyone else admit to listening to the Velvet Crush?

Speaking of wierd, I heard Reeves Gabrels (who worked with David Bowie in Bowie's Hours), once used a vibrator as a musical instrument. Is this true? I heard he was pretty out there in terms of exotic sounds... unfortunately I haven't heard any of his works.

@Role-Player:

 

Vibrators can be used as an effect on guitars, that I know. The best description of it would be "chainsaw on speed," maybe, I dunno, but it sounds pretty funky. As for using the vibrator only, well I'm not sure how that would be done, unless you tell the audience to hum along or something :)

Yea he used it a lot in the Tin Machine days. He had the vibrator on his mic stand just like his guitar picks. LOL! Anyway he used it just like a slide guitarist uses the metal tube (not sure what it

I listen to really angsty stuff, but it's usually grunge-angst, or some light industrial like A Perfect Circle and Tool. I don't really get into metal, and 80% of the bands you mentioned I've never listened to. I can only assume given the context of those bands that I've heard.

Hey, at least I didn't list Anne Murray *shudders*

 

With the topic on Canuck music, I should add Jann Arden to my list. She's my 4th cousin! :D

And don't forget to leave out Guess Who/ Burton Cummings/Randy Bachman.

There are some cool canuck bands out there, though, Sloan can rock occasionally although most of their songs sound kinda the same. I think my fave Canadian band was the Grapes of Wrath.

i got to see The Guess Who live when i worked as a bartender at the big kahuna in st. louis. it was our last day as a matter of fact. labor day weekend (sunday) in 1993 and they played outside on a coupla flatbed trailers. we knew the bar was closing but didn't care. it was a great concert, made a ton of money and had a blast that night... they really did put on a great show.

I guess I should not be so cruel. I haven't seen them live, but I really can't stand 'these eyes' . I used to detest Pete Yorns 'life on a chain' until I heard him play it live, and now he's one of my favorite artists. The guess who just bring up bad memories of being stuck watching anne murray christmas specials (tonight, anne welcomes elvis stojko, the guess who, and zappacosta) and wishing I was old enough to change the channel and not get yelled at.
