What would the Melvins say?
Posted 05 June 2007 - 01:26 PM
Non-metal? Psh.
Slayer - "Altar of Sacrifice"
That's where it's at. That and Turbonegro's "City of Satan."
Damo Suzuki: So, um, yeah. Getting older isn't as bad as it sounds. Better than being young & poor (DjDrake) or young & slutty (SG) or young, poor and slutty (Paves); am I right?
Alright, my friends. It's time for another solid little rock jam

Blues stuff with the devil will probably be the best, though. So delicious listening to blues.
Blues stuff with the devil will probably be the best, though. So delicious listening to blues.
But among the jackals, the panthers, the bitch hounds,
The apes, the scorpions, the vultures, the serpents,
The yelping, howling, growling, crawling monsters,
In the filthy menagerie of our vices,
There is one more ugly, more wicked, more filthy!
Although he makes neither great gestures nor great cries,
He would willingly make of the earth a shambles
And, in a yawn, swallow the world;
He is Ennui! His eye watery as though with tears,
He dreams of scaffolds as he smokes his hookah pipe.
You know him reader, that refined monster,
Hypocritish reader, my fellow, my brother!

Unfortunately, my brother's attempts to teach me any guitar have ended in failure. So I just appreciate. And I enjoy the history/mysticism attached to it. All the mojo and pacts with the devil and such is enough to get any man interested.Who the fuck can hate blues?Blues stuff with the devil will probably be the best, though.

Devil's Right Hand - Steve Earle
if you're avoiding the Dead, I think Lyle Lovett's version of Friend of The Devil is incredible.
Devil with the Blue Dress
in my head, I know there are tons of Johnny Cash songs in this vein, but I am drawing a blank.
Sail Away: The Songs of Randy Newman -7.5/10
Dusty Springfield - Dusty in Memphis 8.5/10
Buddy & Julie Miller - Written in Chalk wow, first listen, but great great record! 9.3/10
Justin Townes Earle - Midnight at the Moviessurprisingly great, never picked up his past releases, but this one's knocking my socks off right away, 8.7/10
M. Ward - Hold Time 8.0/10
Neko Case -Middle Cyclone her best I've heard is my initial impression, but too soon to rate, haven't had a really good listen yet 7.8/10

Good for you bro, blues needs people who give a shit nowadays. I was considering starting a blues y'all send the thing thread, but cancelled it due to lack of interest. I may reconsider...Unfortunately, my brother's attempts to teach me any guitar have ended in failure. So I just appreciate. And I enjoy the history/mysticism attached to it.

I have a bunch of blues compilations i could put up. Unfortunately some act of satan/itunes deleted my favorite one, the guitar classics. Damn was that a good cd.
