TIL... Mojo Nixon passed away...

from a cardiac arrest on an Outlaw Country cruise ship, hours after his final live performance.

God bless you, Mojo Nixon. Thst is the only way that you could go. The best of all of us. I will always tell the story as it was two groupies and an 8 ball.

JE DÉCOUVRE LE ROCK

Je suis un gars de 16ans, d'habitude, j'écoute du rap, du jazz ou du rock alternatif, genre Tame Impala ou les trucs comme ça.

Récemment j'ai découvert ( pas vraiment découvert mais re decouvert, je connaissais déjà ) la musique « Boys dont Cry », quand je l'ai réentendue je me suis tout de suite dit que je ratait vraiment un truc dans le rock.

J'ai donc besoin de vous, fan de rock, pour me recommander des groupes, albums ou chansons en particulieres, de rock dans les années ou dans le style de cette musique. Merci

Rick’s “4 bands still played in 2100” video sent me down a rabbit hole, so I wrote an essay arguing the reason is older than streaming

Rick’s video asking how Nirvana, Queen, the Police, and the Beatles out-draw nearly everyone still working lodged in my head and wouldn’t leave, so I wrote an essay trying to answer it. My argument: his four winners share one thing that living bands don’t, a closed catalog. Nothing new can ever be added, so it stops being a career and becomes canon, bounded and knowable how scripture is. It builds on Rick’s own points (biopic, covers, small discographies) and pushes toward what he gestures at near the end, that history has already decided. Grateful to him for the question, and curious what y'all makes of my answer.

Fans of 80s, 90s, and 00s rock would be able to appreciate melodic metalcore if it were COMPLETELY INSTRUMENTAL (without vocals)?

The music sounds high‑quality, melodic, and free of chaotic riffs, yet it’s energetic and atmospheric.

And the absence of extreme vocals didn’t alienate the listener, while at the same time this genre isn’t overloaded with its “heaviness”.

What do you say? Do you allow this option?

Cold As Ice

I just listened to this and it is really a nice song by the band I was unaware of,At least till I listened to this .
I can gather the more details about the artist,songs from the internet but it is more fun to read it from the pens of the fans who have lived and experienced that era.
