Strap him with an Ak-47, let him go, fight his own war

No more blood for oil, we got our own battles to fight on our own soil

I used to listen to Alone and You Can't Bring Me Down ALL the time in high school. I loved ST.

I spent an entire summer in the early 90's rockin infectious grooves when it first came out. I would lay $$ that my old girlfriend is still sick of it, but there was nothing better for a good drive.

I have a list for that tool

Best Albums:
1. Linkin Park – Hybrid Theory
2. Nirvana – Nevermind
3. Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness
4. Linkin Park – Meteora
5. Blink 182 - Enema Of The State
6. Bush – Sixteen Stone
7. Nirvana - MTV Unplugged In New York
8. Green Day – Dookie
9. Live – Throwing Copper
10. Limp Bizkit –Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water
11. Eminem – The Marshall Mathers LP
12. Gin Blossoms – New Miserable Experiences
13. Staind – Break the Cycle
14. Blink 182 – Take off your Pants and Jacket
15. Tool – Lateralus
dude i like most of your list, but seriously, wtf is Blink 182 doing on there?.............also as an (obviously) big TooL fan, as well as Staind, Aenima is Tool's masterpiece, and Dysfunction is 10x better than break the cycle in terms of raw emotion and the music itself, unless you like all the whining on their later work.........just my opinion :biggrin:

as for the rest of the topic:

love songs - virtually anything Sarah McLachlan (thanks to my wife), how has she not been mentioned? the best stuff is not on the radio

jam - too many to name, Tool, Staind, Alice in Chains, Chevelle, RATM, Hendrix, i could go on and on, but it all starts and ends with Tool for me, and Eulogy (#2 on Aenima) is by far my favorite

statement - war pigs, RATM - killing in the name, and several Tool songs, but most people don't know what the hell they are saying.......for those who know the music, but not the lyrics, i highly suggest reading the lyrics to Eulogy, Parabola, and Disposition, or all of their songs for that matter!

-I don't know I just like Blink's older stuff. Dammit is one of my favorite Blink songs.
-Sober is the only Tool song that I really love. Aenima is the only Tool CD that I own an actually copy of. Lateralus was the soundtrack of my trip to Europe so I have a lot of memories that go with it. I think it came out while we were over there. We were going to see Tool in Amsterdam while we were there, but Tool canceled the show.
-Mudshovel was the first Staind song that I ever heard and I love it, but I do like the "whining" on break the cycle if you look at my favorite songs list earlier.
-I tend to like lighter songs when I'm putting together a favorites list. Songs that I can listen to in any mood.

Here's my I want to fuck shit up list (or what I can remember of it)-
1. Rage - Killing in the name
2. Limp Bizkit - Break Stuff
3. Tool - Sober
4. Eminem - The way I am
5. Saliva - Click Click Boom

just busting your balls about Blink, they just really strike a nerve w/ me personally.........i noticed a lot of "lighter" songs on your list, different strokes of course, i personally prefer things on the heavy side, but i like melody too, particularly heavy w/ melody

dude too bad you didn't see tool in amsterdam, i think you would have been blown away, as most people are........every show i've been to, starts with a big mosh pit, then by the middle of the second song, everyone is just mesmerized, swaying and/or singing in unison.........OK I'LL STOP NOW!

The worst thing was that Tool, Linkin Park, and some other band that I can't remember (Papa Roach I think) were having a concert in Paris two days after we flew back. I would have given my left nut to see that one.
We were going to see Pennywise in London too, but we got stuck in Brussels an extra night because of a bank holiday. We ended up going to see The Phantom of the Opera instead. :p

One of my buddies was a huge Blink fan back when they were actually a punk band. He said he went to see a show after they sold out and the crowd was full of parents and kids. Blink still had a giant burning "FUCK" behind the stage.

A lot of really good stuff was mentioned, but I swear the radio ruined music for me. There is not one Metallica or Led Zep song that I want to hear because the Goddamn radio beat them to death. There must be a parrot out there who knows all the words to Enter Sandman...

That said, here's my list:

After the Gold Rush-Neil Young

Anything by Blind Melon. I don't think they get nearly enough credit, it probably has to do with No Rain being a big song...It isn't their best though.

Tangled Up in Blue-Robert Zimmerman

"Carry on Wayward Son" is the best R&R song ever made.

Best love song - "All I ask of you"
Best war song - "Sunday Bloody Sunday"
Best jam - "Working Man" or "Stranglehold"
Best driving song - "Highway Star"
Best song about a train - "Folsom Prison Blues" or "Train Kept a Rollin'" or "Locomotive Breath" or "Train, Train"
(There's never been a bad song written about a train.)
Best song about a car - "Old 55" (an obscure Eagles song from their 3rd album)
Best breakup song - "Talk to ya later"
Best album you can listen to all
the way through without stopping - Led Zeppelin IV

Any categories I missed?

How is Fevers and Mirrors? I'm currently digging his double release (I'm Wide Awake and Digital Ash). He's an amazing songwriter.

Fevers and Mirrors is great.

I was a big fan of his with Letting Off the Happiness. It was raw and vibrated with pure talent. Some of Desaparecidos, another of Oberst's projects, is also like that.

Then with Fevers and Mirrors he really let his songwriting develop and started playing around with a few new musical styles. Sometimes he was a bit emotive, but it was very good. The Calendar Hung Itself is his best work yet, I say. . .

His next album, Lifted. . . , is okay, great in a few spots, but he started to try to make a record, if that makes sense. Like one for everybody. I didn't like this nearly as much.

His new ones are okay but I don't like them as much as Letting Off the Happiness or Fevers and Mirrors - the new ones are entirely different musically, also. The lyrics are nice but less internal. In The Calendar Hung Itself, for instance, you hear the perfect emotion with each word. . . the tune and the pitch of the vocals, the scale, everything is just there to convey the right emotion and meaning, nothing else. I love at one point in the song he sings another song (you are my sunshine, my only sunshine) into an answering machine of his ex-lover, but blends it into his song.

Hmm, I've typed enough on this one. . .

Thanks for the info, Kinch. I will have to try his older stuff.
