I thought the same about Pearl Jam and Smashing Pumpkins. Having said that, Pearl Jams Vurses album was grunge and absolutely superb Smashing Pumpkins had one great album and lived off that success for 25 years.

Either Core or Purple. Both are pretty good. For me Grunge was the end of hair metal which had just become a parody of itself. Grunge brought back the punk energy and mixed it with some dirty rock. It was the last great musical revolution and I'm not convinced we'll get another one. I'll make sure I watch this.

Come as you are - Nirvana

Shooting star - Gojira

I've found a Roland Cube 60 locally so I'll be off to pick that up later.

I have reported this post as pornography

We have tried my old Marshall MB30 with an old ODB3 drive pedal and it sounded like a wet fart.

I'm mostly going to invest in improving my playing this year. I'm getting some lessons to improve my sloppy technique and theory. Lots of jam sessions to push me to improvise. I may sell my Musicman Sterling Ray34 and Ray35 to buy a full fat EBMM Stingray 4. Need to try one to see how much better than my Sterling's it is. I may also treat myself to the Justin Chancellor signature Cry Baby fuzz wah

We've tried it through my 500w Orange Terror and its a great clean sound but even with max gain and my preamp pedal at max gain it isn't particularly dirty. Probably for the best, I don't want my gear getting "borrowed"

Old Peavey stuff is bombproof. New stuff not so much.

Insane in the membrane - Cypress Hill

I have looked at them but couldn't find a good one within 100 miles. Same with Peavey

Hi everyone. I just gave my daughter a nice guitar for Christmas and she's only got a bass amp so really needs a guitar amp. Has anyone got suggestions for something with lots of gain and enough power for band practice but not much more than £100 used? She's playing metal so super creamy clean tones are not required.

Head like a hole - Nine Inch Nails

Straight outta Compton - NWA

I could just never get in to Megadeath. I think it's Dave Mustains vocals that ruin it for me. Jason Newstead definitely deserved better. It's a shame no one has remixed And Justice For All and a shame he didn't get picked up by another major band.

Angel Dust - Faith No More The first album where Billy Gould really showed the full range of his talent and versatility. The record blurs genres with bits of pop, heavy metal, lounge jazz and alternative rock mashed together in to something completely original. Paranoid - Black Sabbath Geezer Butler at his most creative and possibly the most influential metal album ever. And out come the wolves - Rancid Matt Freeman was absolutely on fire from the first note to the last on this album. About as far from typical punk bass as it gets. He combines elements of ska, rockabilly and punk in to something really special and in my opinion, the greatest punk album of all time.

Sanitarium - Metallica

Blue Monday - Orgy

Blue Monday - New Order That's put an end to the Christmas songs. Let's have no more

State of non return - Om

Area 51 - The Charletons

Hurt - Jonny Cash

Making good progress with White Zombies Thunderkiss 65 today. Really, really good bass line and really fu to play. I find it really helps my motivation when my bass sounds good so I spent some time tweaking my compressor and preamp and got it sounding really good which I'm sure helped my progress.

Don't worry, we don't let him buy more than one round at most and we let him know we appreciate it. We never let him drive because he's a bloody terrible driver!
