Replica - Fear Factory

Counterfeit - Limp Bizkit Really dreadful song

Danger high voltage - Electric Six Whatever happened to them?

Atheist Anthem - Leftover Crack

Royal Mail is a business, their entire reason for existence is to make profit. If Domino's pizza offer them 1p per leaflet and they make a profit on that then they'll take the contract. Maybe if it was a state run entity and not for profit then they wouldn't take the contract. I remember when I was a kid doing my paper round delivering the local paper, they told me they made most of their money from the 50 kilos of leaflets that broke my back every week.

Loser - Beck

I've got 3 P basses and quite happy with them so I'll have an Ibanez EHB1505.

I touch myself - The Divinyls

Happy ending - The Strokes That's got to be double points

Probably not too good if you want a nice smooth jazz tone but if you want it bright and punchy then they're great. I'm getting some great punk tones

I got a set of DR Black Beauty strings from senior management. They sound awesome on my P bass. They look great on a white bass as well

Spread your love - Black Rebel Motorcycle Club

Black hole sun - Soundgarden

Return of the mack - Mark Morisson

Return of the phantom stranger - Rob Zombie

Liar - Rollins Band

I failed. I had perfectly decent gear at the start of the year. Everything I needed but I still bought two Fender P basses and a Darkglass vintage overdrive. I did sell a Sterling Ray34 and Epiphone Thunderbird vintage pro. I regret selling the Thunderbird, it sounded amazing. Its with the current Hawkwind bassist now so I'm sure I'll see it played properly at some point.

I did bring up muting later in the discussion. Both questions have been answered. I've got some good tips and have been trying some of the techniques suggested to see what works for me.

Global warming - Gojira

Sit on my face - Monty Python

The bit about dogs derrières was pretty much on topic. What is or isn't punk was very off topic.

This Trace Elliot AH1200 would do nicely. I loved the sound of my old GP12SMX head but it just wasn't powerful enough. 1200 Watts should get the job done

I didn't see this one coming. Faithless were huge during my clubbing years and his vocals were always so distinctive.

An old hippie who wrote songs for better musicians to cover.

They asked him not to sing "F**k you. I won't do what you tell me" What did they expect??? Politics in music goes at least back to the blues. Apparently Bob Dylans lyrics political but all I hear is vowels
