Drive By Truckers

"Sands of Iwo Jima" brings me back to my childhood with my dad to a level that's kinda scary.

slightly less severe torture for the ears. just based on the song you linked, they sound like the bosstones with fiddle and accordion instead of horns.

You must be of British heritage.:furious3:

Would you believe the lead singer is the same guy from Fastway from back in the 80's?

That's good stuff. Listening to them made me dig out my old Son Volt albums.

brittish heritage? my lineage is pretty much all of western europe and native america, but primarily irish and scottish.

i really wouldn't mind that song so much if it didn't sound so much like the lamest ska-pop band ever.

Check out some of the other songs on youtube by them. It's more Irish Punk than ska-pop and grows on you the more you listen. Definitely not for everyone's taste though.

Been listening to a lot of classic Motown stuff recently. Some of those songs are so familar that I forget how good they are. You just hear it in the background somewhere and kind of tune it out or sing along without thinking. But when you actually listen to them, they're just. . . great.

Tool - Roseta Stoned

Alrighty, then ... picture this if you will...

10 to 2 AM, X, Yogi DMT, and a box of Krispy Kremes,
In my "need to know" pose, just outside of Area 51
Contemplating the whole "chosen people" thingy
When a flaming stealth banana split the sky
Like one would hope but never really expect
To see in a place like this.
Cutting right angle donuts on a dime
And stopping right at my Birkenstocks,
And me yelping...

Holy fugging $hit!

Nine Inch Nails - Eraser

Smashing Pumpkins - Drown

Chad, Come to Houston this weekend! My kid's band is playing twice!

They've written a dozen songs....one they call "epic" (or is it epoque?).
