OT: Watcha Listenin' To? Part VIII: All I Wanted was a Pepsi

Thanks for posting this - never heard of these guys before. I like it. Sounds familiar but can’t quite place it.

I love that the last 2+ minutes is just a long outro groove and the chorus doesn’t come back.

Enjoy the rabbit hole. I found them when they released Alkaline and they don’t disappoint.

Forgot about this one:



If memory serves, SY did the soundtrack for some long-forgotten and little-seen 1986 film called Made in America and most of it was incidental music, which really just sounded like typical SY. This track was the highlight.

For the longest time, I though Sam Cooke was the Sam of Sam and Dave.

Paging @Captain Dave Poulin. This might have too much of a MBV feel for your tastes, but you should still check it out.

Some older tunes:

I've really been hooked on the band Ghost as of late. I had a chance to listen to Impera and was super impressed with the musicianship. The song Griftwood is clearly an ode to the guitar work of the late Edward Van Halen, with a layer of Def Leppard inspired harmonies and musical structure.

Call Me Little Sunshine is haunting, beautiful and dark. Spillways is a slowed down Runaway by Bon Jovi.

Incredible album. Incredible band. And I love all the dark imagery. Yes I'm well aware of the 'satanic' undertones, but much like bands such as KISS or Alice Cooper, I think Tobias is playing off that a bit. Add the late Frank Zappa would say, don't let them in on it.

I don't mind that at all. It feels a little ... bland, maybe? But it's nice enough. I think I would get along with her swimmingly either way.

Apparently his last live show was in Sept. I didnt notice because I am more of a Funky Fri, and weeknight XPN listener.

immediately got the mid 2000s Eminem vibes, especially the last bit of this one starting at 5:12

He even called out the Eminem reference haha

yeah definitely wasn't anything musically or conceptually mind blowing, just from a performance and total package was quite incredible to watch. felt like I was watching a piece of theatre or something

Mr. Jones is one of the worst songs ever made.

Counting Crows also released the single worst song ever made. Their cover of Joni Mitchell's Big Yellow Taxi. If I hear that song I turn into a rage monster and destroy things in public.

I'd like to remind you that "You Oughta Know" exists.
