Non Metal Now Listening

[astfgyl]

Actually I had Violator on last night and I've settled the argument in that Violator is actually way better

[Carnage]

Fugazi: Repeater

One of the best albums of all time. Probably the best bass drum sound I've ever heard.

[Carnage]

Lads, this is one of the greatest songs of all time:

The day after my first "proper" gig (Ozzfest 2002), I found myself in Star Music - a defunct record shop here in Sligo, and on their "3 for 20" deal I nabbed...

R.E.M - Reveal (not their best, but some worthwhile songs on there still).
Depeche Mode - "Violator"
The Sisters of Mercy - "Floodland".

That was an incredible day's shopping for sure.

Reveal is.....

Okay

Ah I take it as a fairly late in their discography thing. Nothing mind-blowing, but not bad at all. Or "okay" 

[Ducky]

Fugazi: Repeater

One of the best albums of all tine. Probably the best bass drum sound I've ever heard.

Both of these statements are correct. Bass (guitar) tone as well. I get a bit fizzy thinking how good it sounds, especially on "Sieve-Fisted Find".

And that opening to "Blueprint" is one of my favourite guitar parts ever.

[Ducky]

Lads, this is one of the greatest songs of all time:

This is also correct! Video is iconic too, though I also love the alternative one shot on top of the Twin Towers - a time and a place that no longer exists, plus Fletch is also gone.

Will be listening to this song until the day I tap out myself.

Edit - mildly salty that that intro doesn't seem to exist on any of the album versions.

[Yung Led Zeppelin]

Fugazi: Repeater

One of the best albums of all tine. Probably the best bass drum sound I've ever heard.

Haven't listened to that one for a while, great candidate to stick on for the Sunday morning

Lads, this is one of the greatest songs of all time:

And from one of the greatest albums of all time

Repeater is lethal.  Violator is lethal.

[Ducky]

To the surprise of absolutely no one...

Fugazi - Repeater.
Depeche Mode - Violator.
The Sisters of Mercy - Floodland.

One of the best Sundays I've had in a very long time 

[astfgyl]

To the surprise of absolutely no one...

Fugazi - Repeater.
Depeche Mode - Violator.
The Sisters of Mercy - Floodland.

One of the best Sundays I've had in a very long time 

If I put on Floodland I'll be matching your Sunday

[astfgyl]

Repeater is lethal.  Violator is lethal.

Yes and yes

Rory Gallagher - Calling Card

Deep Purple's Roger Glover produced this
1976

As expected, great playing on this 

'Secret Agent' even has a DP sound to it in the main verse

Yeah it's his best-sounding album for sure. And probably my favourite (along with "Tattoo"). Last one to feature his best band as well.

Fuck it, even though I was Rory'd out at the festival the other week, gonna stick this on now. Edit - forgot how good that drum sound is on the intro to "Do You Read Me"

Playing is rudimentary; sound is great
