  1. The exception would be Idles who are absolutely brilliant and constantly denying being punk in interviews. They definitely are punk though.
  2. Planets Collide - Crowbar
  3. I'd be very happy if I heard that when I was braced for meatloaf.
  4. Not a fan of negative Wizard metal then? Surely you must like a bit of nintendocore???
  5. Like anything it varies between bloody awful and absolutely brilliant.
  6. Come as you are - Nirvana
  7. Beat it - MJ
  8. Basically stoner metal is ripped off Black Sabbath riffs tuned down to C or lower with a heap of dirt on bass and guitars and lyrics about either weed, demons or witches/wizards. Songs usually turn in to a jam towards the end. Check out Kyuss for an example. For doom, tune lower and add more dirt, maybe slow down to 120bpm and add the word bong/wizard/funeral to the band name. Beards are almost essential as is black clothing. Everywhere you go there should be a fog of cannabis smoke. Check out Electric Wizard for an example. For sludge metal tunings can be higher, up to drop D. Basically just play early thrash slowed right down with vocals kind of slurred/growled. Check out Eyehategod for an example. Then you've got yer sub genres, funeral doom, blackened doom, drone doom, death doom etc, etc
  9. It's a bit of a blurred line. I think some of the late 80's Black Flag was almost grunge and some of the very early Mudhoney and Nirvana were punk. I've always considered Bleach by Nirvana to be a punk record.
  10. They certainly do. Funeralopolis is my usual warm up when I picked up a 5 string. I think most of Om's stuff is in B standard as well, State of non return definitely is.
  11. Sorry, I meant Maxwell Murders by Rancid, not Journey to the end of East Bay.
  12. Anne's Song - Faith No More
  13. If you fancy something compltely different, try some Rancid. Journey to the end of East Bay. Matt Freeman takes a lot of influence from rockabilly walking bass lines. Goldfinger and Mighty Mighty Bosstones are also well worth checking out.
  14. Hurry up Gary - Sham 69
  15. Going blind - Melvins
  16. Diamond Eyes - Deftones
  17. Asphyxiation - Sons Of Apollo
  18. F**k off and die - Darkthrone Too much?
  19. Baby got back - Sir Mix A Lot
  20. I got a bit confused here. This should have gone I the grunge discussion, not here.
  21. As we're many terrible bands. I'll draw your attention to Trapt, Creed, Nickelback and Counting Crows.
  22. Invisible man - Queen
  23. Notes you'll hear through a doom mix, interesting tonal complexities will get lost.
  24. No. There were quite a few still on their books from before grunge. Sonic Youth is one that comes to mind.
  25. I remember there was one British grunge band, Bush. They were a bunch of rich kids funded by their parents and bloody awful.
