RSD release of the day for me is Voivod’s “Angel Rat”, originally released in 1991.

Originally a thrash band with lyrical nods to William Gibson, and other science fiction writers, they slowed down a bit for this one and enlisted Terry Brown (famous for producing a zillion Rush albums) as producer. The result was an album that alienated their hardcore thrash fans but was a joy for those in the fan base who loved Pink Floyd, Jane’s Addiction and Rush.

a couple of songs here:

Too 90s for me; the rot has set in. But this... and this... that's the stuff.

Fun fact: their hometown in Quebec no longer exists. That's hardcore.

After going waaaaay beyond my budget last year, this year I limited myself to four. Top must-get for me was Rain Parade's Explosions in the Glass Palace.

After that, it was the Nick Cave Live Seeds, the live Replacements thing of course, and the Jay Bennett double album/DVD set.
 
Sorry, I missed the callout. I'm really bad at listening to any of these posted links, otherwise I'd spend all day here.

Sounded kinda similar to something I know, but I can't put my finger on it.

Nice.

I wanted the reissue of Superchunk’s “Incidental Music” and the Jackson 5 reissue as well but neither were available at the store I frequent:(
 
So, for the last 40 years I have applied the John Waters rule: anyone who hates John Waters is a monster. There's nothing in him (ahem) but humor and love and silliness.

I now officially extend this to be the John Waters-Lizzo Rule.

Also: d-mn, Missy Elliott is my age and she look great.
 
Been running through an old school album revival the past several days start to finish. Most of these I have while a few *were suggested to me and fortunately so.

John Coltrane – A Love Supreme
*The Zombies – Odessey and Oracle
Miles Davis – Kind of Blue
*Rodriguez – Cold Fact
*The Sonics – Boom
Sonny Rollins - Saxophone Colossus
King Crimson – In the Court of the Crimson King
Captain Beefheart – Safe As Milk
The Wailers – Catch A Fire
Nick Drake – Pink Moon
Pink Floyd – Piper At the Gates of Dawn
*13th Floor Elevators – The Psychedelic Sounds
The Stooges – Fun House
Funkadelic – Maggot Brain

btw I had not listened to Fun House in maybe a decade and what a stupid miss by my part. That is a great fucking album.

Well, she put her thing down, flipped it, and reversed it.

His friendship with Brian Jones also inspired Paint it Black.

All Things Must Pass is arguably the best solo Beatles record, although Ram has been slowly climbing up that list despite it initially being panned.

I don't doubt you, but I doubt that story. George was a nice man and all, but I don't see him being able to wrap his mind around what the Stones were doing, let alone having enough soul to appreciate it.

The Beatles were the four whitest people in music history. Compared to them Billy Joel is DMX. They contributed many good things to music, but they as utterly isolated from the tap root of soul as Mike Pence.

This might be the most factually incorrect post here on USCHO in ten years.
