Their first two albums were great but it was all down hill after that, IMO. To generic. I remember a story from way back when that Mick Mars stole his first guitar from Guitars Etc in Seattle, which I was particularly proud of at the time considering that I had been to that particular Guitars Etc many times when before that story came to light.

I also have one of Queens Ryche’s first 5000 albums, (ever), which I bought after they opened for a Dio concert in Seattle.

Good Tastes are Incontrovertible!

It’s a band called eleventyseven, the song is My Space.

It wasn’t a bad song, although aside from the Cure I’m not into the Goth stuff. Disintegration is one of the best albums ever produced, though, IMO.

Man on the Silver Mountain definately is, sung by Dio with Blackmore on the guitar, as usual. I’m not familiar with the other song, though.

Considering that you like Rainbow, are you a Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple or Judas priest fan? If you haven’t listened to them you really should because you’d almost certainly like them at least as much, probably more.

Goth? I thought it was punk. What do I know? I’m 46.

Oh, well I’m a tad younger than you, but honestly I only sampled about 30 seconds of the video because I was listening to Steve Miller and Motley Crew at the time. I only called it goth because the segment I watched included a bunch of people that appeared to have the white faces with black lipstick, etc, that I normally associate with Gothic persona’s. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Like I said, The Cure’s Disintigration is one of the best albums ever, IMO. It’s far from Punk, but if you haven’t heard it maybe you should…. but be warned it’s not upbeat music so it’s not for everybody.

Hey, whatta you know? You thought pop punk was goth! :)

SouthernDem on June 25, 2008 at 1:12 AM

Well they look like goth. Maybe their a goth-punk band….

FloatingRock on June 25, 2008 at 1:19 AM

And, dude, it’s Allman Bros. : )

I’ve spent a massive number of hours listening to them, although not so much in recent years. I’m a fan now but I used to hate them. My dad used to play a recording he made of them from the King Biscuit Flower Hour, (a radio program), around 30 years or so ago. It’s an interesting story because he used to play the same recording at bedtime every single night we spent at our family cabin when I was growing up, for years. I had to try to fall asleep listening to that music and used to hate it, especially considering that while listening to it I was particularly concerned that BigFoot or a bear might crash through the window at any time and kill me. (I was usually in the top bunk directly in front of a window.)

Now I’m a big fan, although I haven’t listened to them in the past few years.

if you like the one you’ll probably like the other.

Well, at least my brother and I do.
