I suppose I’m obligated to post this:
The Cure are great. I always liked them. Starting with The Head on the Door album they had a great 4 album run from 85 to 92. They still put on a good show.
Also kind of feel the same way about Depeche Mode.
Recently my singer/guitarist told me my song had too many chords and I was like really? So I counted them and there were five.
Also that Cure track on The Crow soundtrack is still awesome. Maybe the best track on that soundtrack.
DM live are incredible. I think between them and The Cure, that may make up about 50% of my concert attendances.
People who have never seen them have no idea what a great front-man Dave is.
That voice. If I could sing at all, I’d want to sound just like him.
Unsure if many lights ever shone brighter …
Presumably you freaks have seen this (it’s become very famous, especially for the mind-numbing drumming):
Their sound live is a lot heavier and more full than one might expect from an electro-pop outfit. Just a great act to see.
I got to hear them in London.
I say hear them because they were playing in Hyde Park while we rode by on the bus tour.
Too good not to share but didn’t know in which thread to put it. As there are musical references, I chose here.
I think it’s somewhere in Minnesota where they do a public poll to name the snowplows every winter…some of the names are top quality.
DC does the same thing.
I realize this is the Music 2022 thread/supposed to be more of ‘today’s music,’ but walking to my gate/flight/work at LAX this morning, the Rock ‘n Brews in the terminal was playing my favorite band INXS’ “Don’t Change” video on their TV screens.
You’re damn straight I stopped my walk and enjoyed the hell out of that.
Fuckin’ eh right, Bubba.
Great song, I’d never heard Bruce’s version of it before
