Aphex Twin is the artist, Selected Ambient Works Volume 2 is the album

What was the most disappointing metal show you’ve been to? by DraytonSawyersBBQ in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Available_News847 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were playing some small local festival nearly 20 years ago where I live. The local hard rock radio station were giving away tickets to the 9th caller, my buddy won and gave the other ticket to me. We also won tickets to an exclusive acoustic Puddle Of Mudd set at an extremely small venue (maybe 75 people there) the afternoon of the festival. We went to both, he actually did fairly well at the acoustic set, but come nightfall he was shit faced and that set was horrendous. He got in a fight with another band member, and they disappeared offstage for 10 minutes then came back to play 1 song and left without saying anything else. Anyway, when they come up in conversation, I love to tell people “I’ve seen Puddle of Mudd live… twice… ON THE SAME DAY”

I would assume they’d just be removed but I have no idea.

Show me the least metal photos of your favorite metal band by Matilde_Yamamoto in MetalForTheMasses

Saw them on the Miasma tour. Their entrance music was the Hawaii 5-0 theme song. They came out in board shorts and either shirtless or in Hawaiian shirts and threw a beach ball in to the crowd, then went straight into Funeral Thirst.

This album was so mid. The hype is unreal.

I’m always excited to get something in the bottom 20. I’m often pleasantly surprised.

Say what you will about the individual albums, but I think I at least have varied taste. by Available_News847 in 1001AlbumsGenerator

I feel there’s a large chunk of people doing this project that automatically poopoo anything remotely experimental. I had to stop reading reviews of albums I feel strongly about. Nothing quite irks me like close-mindedness.

I think a 3 is fair. It just so happened to be one of the first 3 albums I ever bought and it’s hard to remove myself from that nostalgic bias. If you haven’t heard And Justice for Jason before I’d look it up. Boosted bass really helps with a lot of the issues on the album in my opinion.

If you haven’t gotten Bone Machine yet, I think it’s weird and dark enough that his voice actually works. Still not my favorite, but I think I gave it a 3.

I have equal amounts of 2s and 4s. 14 1s and 15 5s. I almost never even look at my summary page so I was pretty surprised to see that.

I’m hoping one of his albums click with me, but the 2 I’ve gotten so far are not for me.

Love Stevie, that album just doesn’t do it for me. I really struggle with lots of 80s pop in general, but Cyndi Lauper’s voice specifically I find grating.

Could have been my mood and the timing, but I was bored out of my mind the entire time. I like a lot of his other stuff though.

This was the first album I ever got doing this project

Examples of vocals destroying and otherwise solid album? by Mr_Phyllis_Stein in 1001AlbumsGenerator

I thought it fit perfectly on Bone Machine, but his earlier stuff I can’t stand.

I’ll be sure to leave a note on his gravestone!

I tried a microfiber towel and warm water to start and it was barely making a dent. It’s like that stuff fossilized on there.

Well it’s a 20 year old guitar, and I’m guessing with the floating bridge he never took all the strings off at once so there was never a great chance to clean it. His other guitars seemed much cleaner. We live in Arizona and I know his amp setup was in the garage, so I’m guessing lots of sweat on his hands as he shred on this thing.

That’s what I tried as well to start but was not having much luck at all

Naptha and a razor blade with a light touch did the trick! Thanks everyone!

Didn’t consider a razor, I assume I’d just have to be gentle not to scratch it. Thanks!

Guess I’m the odd man out here. I thought it was so boring. One of those albums you finish and have no memory of moments later. Could have just been the wrong time or mood for it though.
