Two awesome albums! I have a rerelease of "Are You Experienced" on 180g vinyl, had a shootout with my chemistry teacher's original copy (second gen), and my my... how they could mix mono back then! Was wonderful. His beat the rerelease. X3

And, completely off the topic of Hendrix, a friend showed me the album "Letters Home" by the band Defeater a few weeks ago. The album is a concept of sorts, it deals with a dysfunctional family being ripped apart by WWII, and... it does it really well, I think. It's a really heavy album both on a lyrical level and on the actual heaviness of songs, making extensive use of the genre it slotted itself into (something like "hardcore punk" or some other, didn't bother to remember). Here's a snippet, No Shame, second song. It's not the best song off of it, but it sums up the flavour of the majority of the album.
Such emotion. So raw. Wow.

I too have that rerelease. I want to get the 200g UK mono rerelease and compare the two. I don't think I'll be hearing an early pressing any time soon, but the UK version is said to be very close to the original. That version also has the songs "Red House", "Can You See Me", and "Remember" in place of "Purple Haze", "Hey Joe", and "The Wind Cries Mary".

Yeah, originals are hard to come by, and if they do pop up they're always worth a pretty penny. I'm pretty sure the original I listened to was purchased sometime in the late 70s and kept for a very long time. X3

I haven't been able to listen to the UK rerelease, although I'm pretty sure I saw it in a record store around here. I don't normally buy rereleases, unless I've heard they were good (Summer Surf by Dick Dale on Sundazed being the most recent example).

"Vega-Tables" - The Beach Boys
"SMiLE" recording, much better than "Smiley Smile".

Yeah, there are some bad vinyl rereleases out there (Moody Blues - "Days of Future Passed", being one I know of) so it's best to check reviews.
Cool, I haven't seen any Dick Dale at any stores I stop by. My collection could use some surf-rock...

NO B S! Brass band.

Interesting fact: One brass band can generate enough energy in a half-hour performance to power a Louisiana parish for aproximately 17 hours. Regrettably, to date, no one has yet figured out exactly how to harness this energy.

Been listening to the Offspring's Americana a lot lately. I had it on casette back in elementary school ( not quite sure how I got my parents to buy it and let me listen to it but regardless it was an important part of my formative experience) and I used to listen to it constantly. A few of the songs don't hold up but it's a really solid album. The kids aren't all right and Americana are still great tracks to jam out to. I also rediscovered Staring at the sun which is much better than I remember.

Just now I've heard of the splittercore and extratone genres of music while listening to some gabber and schranz remixes, and I got intrigued at the 500-900BPM and over 1000BPM aspects. So I gave a few tracks a listen.

Can't say I'm a fan of them though, most tracks ended up abusing that 1000+BPM bass loop too much, making the whole track sounding like someone jackhammering into your ear. I don't exactly hate it, just that I don't find myself liking it that much. There's one semi-decent one, and again, it's a Touhou arrangement, but I will not link it here because the picture included is rather risque.

Oh and apparently my roommate is a BIG, BIG fan of deadmau5. While I think his songs are quite okay and enjoyable, being forced to listen to the same tracks over and over again (he has a speaker, and I consider it rude to use my headphones and listen to something else when he plays them. Well, that, and he keeps on rambling on how good each song is and what's their significance, so I dutifully listen to them) made me dread that guy. :?

Great choice. 8-) Deadmau5 is one of my few favorite artists (I look more to the single tracks, no matter of the artist), but I like more his first music style rather the latest ones. The new album tracks have little rhythm and are too chilly for my tastes.

Yeah, like I said, I don't mind listening to the tracks. But being forced to listen to it even when I wanted to listen to something else made me apprehensive of listening to him anymore.

Those are some radical insignias. :shock:

Also, there's so many heavy metal bands! And if I remember correctly, the techno and dubstep genres also stemmed from these European countries. Crazy :o

To be correct and to include all those kind of genres, just say "EDM". ;) Speaking of Scandinavia, its concentration there's in Sweden.

So I'm stuck somewhere between the 60's and 90's, CCR, Jimi Hendrix,Eraserheads, Neil Diamond, and many more. Probably should go search my YouTube history.

I'd say Finland based solely on Children of Bodom. But Sweden is a close second because Arch Enemy and Amon Amarth are insanely metal. I'm not into a ton of the Norweigian stuff (though my scandanavian metal experience is very limited so I'm sure I'm missing out on some of them) but I do like gorgoroth.

Syd Barrett's solo albums were rereleased last week.
I enjoy them and would like to get them on vinyl at some point....
I would also like it if they released a 7" with his final two Pink Floyd songs "Vegetable Man" and "Scream Thy Last Scream".

"Dark Globe"
"Gigolo Aunt"
"Word Song"
