How so?

Anyway:

LA Woman by the Doors. I'm still shocked how long it's taken me to discover just how fucking awesome this song is...

The Polyphonic Spree - Section 10 (A Long Day)

Ambient shit, really, but I recognise the silly noises. Anyway, this song is pants, takes up half the Poly's first album, which was in essence just a bunch of demos, but the weird vocalisation strung together into a thirty minute piece is just a tiny bit irritating. Actually, it's tremendously irritating, such that I instantly skip it, and as I'm a Polymaniac, the continuity of the albums is replicated on my music playlist thing. Awwww yeaaah!!

AAAA*. Appropriate much.



*All of the sentences started with the letter "A". The only sounds in "A Long Day" are vocalisations, sounding much like AAAAA AAA AAAA AAA etc. Geddit now.

Raheem DeVaughn feat. R. Kelly-Customer Remix

Just an ordinary R&B song, until you hear R. Kelly's lyric of "If your thirsty, I got some good lemonade." Kinda ironic isn't it?

Irony is a literary or rhetorical device, in which there is an incongruity or discordance between what a speaker or writer says and what he or she means, or what is generally understood.

No.

Deep Purple - April

Better than anything Joker has ever listened to, read, thought, written or said. Not that that's saying much. Anyway, 10/10, easily, and I don't say that about anything.

My friend purchased "The Carter III" yesterday, and it's fucking hot. The album is unlike anything Wayne has put out before, and you can really tell by the progression of the tracks and their accompanying style that he put everything he had into this record.

In short, it was definitely worth the wait. Best rap album since "The Documentary", and Lupe's "The Cool" ...

And the album cover is balls out fantastic.

Also, Deep Purple is awfully underrated. Shame people will only remember them for Smoke on the Water.

Really? I was a bit leery about getting it because of all the delays, and I thought I would be massively disappointed, but I may have to give it a listen.

Smoke on the Water is so unbelieveably weak compared to their best songs. If anyone doesn't believe me, listen to Child in Time, Fireball, Burn, Mistreated, Soldier of Fortune, or Perfect Strangers to get an iota of a clue of how good this band was in almost every incarnation. Ian Paice was the best drummer of all time.

On a similar note...

Rainbow - The Temple of the King

Fantastic. Dio's on form, the lyrics are excellent and Blackmore's renaissance/classical background really comes through in a good way.

Nice idea, but I'm now immune to chemical suggestion.

Big fan of Dio's non-solo work, though. Heaven and Hell was Black Sabbath's best album.

I have that and Paranoid on vinyl. I don't know if I'd call Heaven and Hell the best (The first three Sabbath albums are absolute classics), it's certainly up there.

I just realised, 6 minutes in, that I was listening to Maggot Brain, so now it's as loud as my computer speakers will carry it.

Gosh darn, this song is just incredible, bloody brilliant, a guitar orgasmatron, masterpiece in musical awesome. Yeah!

Correct. The first three (Black Sabbath, Paranoid, and Master of Reality) are way up there for best album ever, as is Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, in my opinion. Sabotage is decent, but, of course, between 1975 and 1979, Ozzy and Bill Ward were both so high all the time the quality of their work dropped.

Personally, I hate Dio and Heaven and Hell is certainly the best of the Dio era, but not better than any of the aforementioned albums . For all intents and purposes, Sabbath invented the slow, rhythmic doom metal, and Dio kind of made the band sound faster and more Metallica-esque, essentially shittier.

I'm aware, dumbass.

I'm referring to the first truly popular band that retained the style of speed metal, as a point of comparison, because there really isn't a band before then characterized by that style of play. 1981 is also about the same time Slayer and Megadeth formed, right? Those three are known for that kind of sound. Sabbath is known as the pioneers of the slower, heavier sound. "Metallica-esque" is just saying that Sabbath under Dio sounded like what Metallica later sounded like. You could credit Dio with being the mainstream originator of that sound.

You don't say "Metallica-esque" when it comes to the originator of the sound, Dale III. It'd be like saying that the Ramones were Green Day-esque or that the Rolling Stones are White Stripes-esque (or the Black Sabbath are insert-shitty-metal-band-here-esque (oh wait)).

Fact of the matter is that Black Sabbath were one of, if not the originators of metal. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, metal would exist if it weren't for the thunder-church-bell-sludge-guitar of "Black Sabbath," the harmonica of "The Wizard," or everything on Paranoid. Speed metal? Replace the hallucinogenics in a Sabbath song with cheap booze, play faster, and presto. Christ, Annoying Fag, it isn't like people go around christening different bands as the fathers of different sub-genres of punk music (other than New Wave), because splitting hairs fine enough where you go "Alright, these people took their influence from the Clash and these guys from the Sex Pistols and these ones from the Ramones" would be just fucking retarded.

You can't give credit to a band for creating something and then take it away by saying that they sound like another band WHO WASN'T EVEN FUCKING AROUND AT THE TIME.

Furthermore, if you want "speed metal," please refer to "Highway Star," courtesy of Deep Purple, or "Stone Cold Crazy" from Queen. Metallica, Megadeath, and Slayer took the leftovers from 70's bands (Highway Star opened up the album with Smoke on the Water, and Queen is Queen) and made a career out of it. Metallica formed in 81. Highway Star was 72.

Before that? Paranoid. See, oh, Ozzy-era Sabbath.

Please, fuck off to obscure stats land at ESPN if you're going to backtrack every time you say something retarded. You sound like a thick cunt.

I loved reading the above posts, because they read like the chain of thought I had on the subject five years ago. Except I calculated all these variables almost instantaneously and, in around seventeen seconds, had progressed to the point of enlightenment: Heaven and Hell is Sabbath's best album.

It might take you a bit longer, but trust me, you're both getting there. A few more listens wouldn't hurt to give you a bit of a boost.
