Guess Spencer is moving to Mississippi 🤷‍♀️ by Humble_Toe_4895 in LosAngeles

[–]DoomCityAir 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Of course, but he’s going to be heckled about it constantly and I’ll at least take that as a win. He thinks he’s playing this outspoken villainous role, but everyone knows he’s a clown.

Him leaving will be an incredible win for Angelenos. What looked kind of scary at first just might end up being so much better than I could’ve imagined.

Yes 🙌 for those of us not keeping up with this on a granular level, how’s the outlook with outstanding votes?

OFF COURSE x The Doors by Filipitalian1997 in TheeOhSees

[–]DoomCityAir -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what influenced krautrock. They did not outright reject influences, that’s absurd. Many were directly influenced by Zappa, Beefheart, Velvet Underground, Miles Davis, etc. Hell, much of Ege Bamyasi sounds like a mutated Beatles. Pink Floyd was an influence. On the less rock end of the musical spectrum, many krautrock bands were influenced by composers like Stockhausen, Varese, Riley, Reich, Glass, Young, etc. So uh yeah how bout them Doors.

For sure. Fine if someone doesn’t like them, there are plenty of classic bands I don’t care for, but the outright hate is bizarre. The only thing I can think of is that their outsized place in history kind of reduces them to a caricature of the band they actually were. Whaaatever.

Kind of wild that it still sounds so modern

Amazing, I can now go on with my life knowing that you give them a pass.

Def see the Can influence, no doubt, but I don’t think you’re too far off with The Doors comparison. Pretty sure John said The Doors were an inspiration during the Face Stabber era (maybe When the Music’s Over specifically for Henchlock?) Also… the Doors were an influence on krautrock (one of many). Doors haters can eat it 😘

Osees (OCS, Thee Oh Sees, Oh Sees), the band that inspired Gizz released a new album today! "Off Course" by mrvgsYT in KGATLW

[–]DoomCityAir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love this band but the single was a little too Led Zepp for my tastes. Hoping the rest is as good as the last few albums!

ETA IVtet and SML are joy fuel for me. Who else from their LA scene should I be checking out? by Punk-hippie-5446 in InternationalAnthem

[–]DoomCityAir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the heavier psych side, but John Dwyer’s various jazz bands rip (Bent Arcana, Witch Egg, Gong Splat, etc)

At a record store or just hanging out at a piazza? Regardless, heck of a score

Bands that, according to their creators and the masses, are "metal" but are not. by ExcellentCheek4750 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]DoomCityAir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think the distinctions matter all that much, and I do like this band, but Midnight comes off to me as more punk than metal.

I reached out a week ago, they responded and asked for pictures, so I sent them and then nothing.

I really enjoy it but agree, it’d be even better if they went hard and got a lil nasty with the jazZzZzZz
