I'm looking to expand my "portfolio" of bands and music (once again) Just wondering since Frank is at the top of my list, what 5 bands are at the top of all of his other fans' lists. What are your TOP 5?

Sadly, I think I've participated in every one of these lists.
I should give posting something of substance a shot.
Anyway, recently it's been..
Beulah Kinks the Fall Gary Numan Birthday Party

mudhoney-favorite non FB band then the kinks too and meat puppets and Beck I like his music too and his music hardly qualifies as a band but I really like Chopin and Leadbelly is another fine musician that I've listened too here's some other bands that will surely expand your musical horizons: Raincoats, Leonard Cohen (he's written some novels too, buy them as well), Beach Boys are great, the Chantays are really good, Woody Guthrie has some good stuff; his house of the rising sun puts the animals' version to shame. The Germs is good if you're in a punk kinda mood; Lexicon Devil is rocking and Forming is rocking too. Is that five yet?
GERMS LYRICS
"Forming"
Rip them down Hold them up Tell them that I'm your gun Pull my trigger I am bigger than-
Mr. Prez in his big White House Listen he says we're comin' out Infiltration-we're numbin' your minds Concentration-we've done time
[repeat chorus]
Over there the Queen she says Let's stamp them out and dry those tears
Saturation-we want in taxes Flagelation-we've got gashes
[repeat chorus]
In the cold, the czars claimin' Just protectin', rockets aimin' Alteration-Earth is changin' Observation-we want action
[repeat chorus]
I the Emperor proclaim Us the masters we rule the game Inclination-somethin' to dream on Deprivation-we are sons
[repeat chorus]

Please scratch Garbage from my list (although I love them) and replace with Red Hot Chili Peppers who I can't believe I forgot. For shame! I see them in a week, yay! |
