What are you listening to? What would you recommend?
-
I kinda doubt it. A guitarist tends to sound the same no matter what he does; it's the style he plays. Petrucci is awesome, but I get bored listening to him.
-
Glasgow Kiss which is more upbeat but still awesome!

@ajstringham I listen mostly to mainstream rock/metal. I have a few obscure favorites (that's how we spell it in the USA, btw...) but I enjoy a lot of simple mainstream stuff.

Got it. 80s rock mostly I'm guessing?
-
Mostly 80's -90's, yeah.
-
@art_of_shred I didn't want to say 90s as that is an area of debate for many. I agree that the MAJORITY of the last good rock songs came out around then. Since then, finding good rock songs is more filtering through the crap to find the semi-precious stone...
-
It's funny that a lot of what we think of (at least those I have talked to) as 80's music was actually released in the early 90's. And, a good portion of the music that defines generation X was released in 1991 in particular. It's amazing how many pivotal albums were released that year.
-
@art_of_shred Sounds like you have a couple examples in mind. I'm very curious. Genuinely. Which ones you referring to?
-
1991 releases?
Metallica - Metallica (black album)
Nirvana - Nevermind
Pearl Jam - Ten
a bunch of others that escape me at the moment -
@art_of_shred Ok, yea, well said.
-
RHCP - Blood Sugar Sex Magic

@art_of_shred I think you'll appreciate this.

Lately at work, I've been putting on Pandora. Currently the band (and associated type of music) that I've been listening to is Tesla. Which has had a lot of Guns N' Roses, some Foreigner, Whitesnake, etc.
I have been doing exactly that for a year or so now. When I enter Tesla as the "station", it gives you such a great selection! Not to mention that Tesla is about the most under-rated band of the 80/90's.
Tesla and Queensryche... two of the most underrated, underappreciated bands from that era...
I've seen Tesla twice - both times when they opened for Def Leppard "In the round" waaaaay back in the 80's!
