I'd say the album im happiest with this year so far would be
Andy Timmons - Resolution
Can't turn the thing off, It took a few listens to get used to but now im in love..
-
Best one I've bought? AC/DC - Back in Black. Or Rammstein - Mutter. Loving them both at the moment!
I haven't bought any "new" music this year!
-
savatage - streets
-
^ :o
I bought the edge of thorns savatage one, and it's a strong contender, though to be fair, I haven't bought much new music this year (EDIT: and by new music, I mean new CD's for me, not music released this year, lol). The other contender would probably be the best of kings x, though tr00 music fans probably don't count that as an album...
:(
-
Nevermore - This Godless Endeavour
Fantastic Album.
Muttley
-
Dirty Pretty Things - Waterloo to Anywhere
great album
-
i honestly dont know what i bought this year or what i bought last year. because it's all a big blur
i know about streets cos .. well, you just cant forget it :D
though right now i'm looking for a store that will get a significant portion of my paycheck as i want to buy the whole opeth and nevermore discography (minus the most recent albums)
-
Contenders for the best of 2006 so far:
Nocturnal Rites, Grand Illusion
Cellador, Enter Deception
Joe Satriani, Super Colossal
Coheed & Cambria, Good Apollo I'm Burning Star IV
With new albums coming out by Iron Maiden, Blind Guardian and Marty Friedman, 06 is shaping up to a great year thus far!
-
I haven't heard anything much this year that I'd want to buy. Willo recommended a guy called Marc Ribot who was actually pretty good, though I wasn't really in the mood for that kinda music then. I'll prolly check him out again another time and see if my tastes have changed.
I borrowed All of Our Names by Sarah Harmer today and it's ok, but I don't think I'll buy it.
I did download an album by a guy called Thomas Blug who is really worth listening to. You can see some clips of him on youtube.com, too. Kinda Satriani meets SRV sound. And he has my ideal setup: vintage Strat into a H&K Triamp.
-
I have not bought much new stuff-only old albums that caught my eye and things I used to have but have lost (Bob Dylan, SRV, T Bone Walker etc) though I did buy an album by my old mate Mac (Ian Mclagan) of Ronnie Lane songs which was nice cos Mr Lane was an unsung hero of mine.
-
Stevie Nicks - Rooms on Fire
Has anything decent been released this year? seems like same old same old to me.

saw a video of him in last month's Guitarist
the keyboard player got on my nerves :|
-
For new music it would be the
Flaming Lips, At war with the mystics
For re-purchased it
The Church, Of skin and Heart or Blurred Crusade (reminds me of being 18)
Rob...
-
Avenged Sevenfold, City of Evil. Since they stopped screaming they've become my perfect band. I've got it in the car and I wish my journeys were longer :o
-
Rory Gallagher - Live in Europe.....absolute energy :P
-
Burnin' Love by Lee Rocker is a contender. Brought Back To Life by the Nekromantix is alotta fun.
I'm waiting for Brian Setzer's 13 to come out.
-
Wolfmother's debut is exactly the style we need coming back into kid's mp3 players - the best parts of Sabbath updated, with a little bit of the White Stripes thrown into a couple of songs. It's dirt cheap at the moment too, so get it in!
-
Oh yeah the The Raconteurs album is excellent (like it better than the white stripes).
Rob...
-
So far it's a toss up between: Dragonforce "inhuman Rampage", Bonkers 16 and Seth Lakeman's "Kitty Jay" :)
-
Fubar,
this is off topic I know but can I ask if the character in your avitar is eating or escaping ?

Fubar,

I dunno really, I'd never thought about it quite like that. I'd just assumed he was having a bit of a munch but, y'know, could go either way really! :lol:

Looks like a bit of motor-boat action!
I'll have to second the Wolfmother album!
-

Heh, I had to ask.
I'm gonna head downstairs in a minute (to HMV) and but that wolfmother CD, as I need somthing new to listen to (I have a 14 hour bus ride on monday)
Rob...
-
I've only really heard a couple of bits of wolfmother on the radio and read a bit about them, I can't really see what all the fuss is about. I'm really not feeling the whole retro thing that appears to be popular at the mo. Their guitarist has hair just like my mate pete tho, which is quite funny!
-
The band - music from big pink
Killing joke's 2003 self titled album (not to be confused with the 1980 self titled album) was also obscenely good, but I don't think downloading it off bittorrent really counts as buying it...
-
just listened to the gUiLLeMoTs album round my mate's house - and it blew me away, so that'll definitely be the best album i buy this year, sorry DPT
-
Oh yeah the The Raconteurs album is excellent (like it better than the white stripes).
Rob...
I only liked a few songs off it actually, I thought alot of them were a bit boring. I havent actually bought any albums this year so far.
-
I´ll buy my best and only album this year on thuesday... Slayer´s Christ Illusion.
-
I just bought an album by Terra Naomi, a chick with an acoustic guitar. All you metalheads would hate it. :P
-
The band - music from big pink
You know that! One of my favourite bands of all time. I've currently got my mums copy of their "best of" box set on semi-permanent "loan", she'll have to fight me to get it back! :lol: Also, i've got The Last Waltz on DVD, if you listen to the audio commentary by them, ronnie hawkins and Dr. John it's absolutely hillarious!
-
The Band- sublime stuff-I have the DVD of the Last Waltz- never get tired of it and their music is full of soul.
-
Yeah, I have the last waltz too. Some seriously good stuff, and robbie robertson has to be one of the most criminally underrated guitarists of all time. Awesome band.
On a side note, have either of you ever tried explaining the fact that they're called "the band" to someone who's really drunk?
-
Yes, it can be made even trickier by being in a similar state of intoxication! :lol:
I don't rate robbie robertson all that highly, myself. Levon Helm is one of the greatest drummers of all time tho.
-
I just bought an album by Terra Naomi, a chick with an acoustic guitar. All you metalheads would hate it. :P
I like chicks with acoustic guitars. Heck, I like chicks! :) (But I'm a respectable married man these days, so I'm really only allowed to like one chick ;)).
Much though I love the glories of metal, I'll go on record as saying that the live performance of Norah Jones (OK, she's got a piano, but it's still acoustic) of "Nightingale" at Bonnaroo 2002 is really good, and in any case far better than her studio stuff. There, I've said it; y'all can shout "death to false metal" at me now. ;)
So, anyway .... Best record I've bought this year? Um, this only reminds me of how few records I've bought! But, probably, it was Denial of Death by The Brain Surgeons NYC (with Al Bouchard, ex-BOC, and Ross the Boss, ex-Manowar & ex-Dictators). Fab heavy rock/metal with intelligent and tuneful playing. If you're around NYC, look out for gigs from them -- well worth it.
If I can count albums from the last 12 months (inc. autumn 2005), then I can add the Iommi/Hughes Fused album and Bruce Dickinson's Tyranny of Souls (though I still like Bruce's Chemical Wedding better. I just got the Phish Live in Brooklyn DVD, and it's quite good, but I haven't finished listening to it yet, and my comparative memories are still coloured by too many awesome small-venue shows from the early '90s to be too objective. And I expect the new Gov't Mule album out 22 August to be very good -- but who knows? :)
Ah -- and in an effort to keep destroying my metal credentials, I'll give a nod to Shakira's Oral Fixation Vol. 2, which isn't as cohesive as older albums like ¿Dónde Están los Ladrones? or Pies Descalzos, but for pop music ain't bad and is, also, stylistically fairly mental, which the pop world needs more of :)
The best band I've seen this year (except Motorhead, who are too so legendary and excellent that I need to handicap them out of the running) was these folks http://www.myspace.com/heidisband in a bitsy little pub gig. They put on a seriously good show! (Though their guitarists need to buy some BKPs. :))
-
A HMV working buddy of mine has "borrowed" a copy of Christ Illusion.
It's $%&#ing immense. Best album since Seasons In the Abyss. Hannemann is on fire.
-
I bought some oldies on Itunes....
La Grange - ZZ Top up to now.
I agree with all those who mentioned "The Band", I love Robbie Robertson's solo on "King Harvest (has surely come)".
Just downloading Rage Against the Machine's eponymus album, so that might end up my fave.....
-
Havent bought an album from him so far, but I've downloaded a few of Izzy Stradlins solo project stuff after GnR and I really like it, different from GnR but thats a good thing, as Slash's Snakepit just sounds like GnR with a different singer (imho) so doesnt really say much for his versatility :)
-

Is that his stuff with the Ju Ju Hounds? I've got a copy of their first album lying around somewhere. Is kinda bluesy iirc?
Snakepit were pretty good but I just couldn't get all that into them, the same goes for Velvet Revolver really. Although they're good, they really didn't live up to my expectations given the member's earlier bands. :(
-
I dont like the Ju Ju Hounds stuff that much, I think the ones I got are from Izzy's 117 degrees album, I've been looking for somewhere to buy it but cant seem to find it anywhere, and can only find the album called River on ebay :( It is kinda bluesy yeah, I like the style a lot.
-
Who Else. Jeff Beck.
-
"new" Album - Razorlight
"old" Album - Irish tour, Rory Gallagher
-

I thought that said more about the relative significance of Axl .... ;)
-
:D I`ve deliberatly held off from replying to this thred for a while to see what kinda "new stuff" people were buying. I personnaly think this year has been very mediocre for new releases. I`ve bought quite a few albums this year but non of them are current releases:
War & Peace = The Walls Have Eyes
Savatage = Edge Of Thorns
Dream Evil = The Book Of Heavy Metal
Streets Of Desire = V
Meatloaf = Bat Out Of Hell, Deadringer
Newman = Sign Of The Modern Times, Heaven Knows
Rhino Bucket = Rhino Bucket
Ronnie Stolt = Wall street Voodoo
To name but a few.
-
Dream Evil = The Book Of Heavy Metal
I just love the start of the title song where he screams METAAAAAALL!, its hilarious :D
-
Dream Evil = The Book Of Heavy Metal
I just love the start of the title song where he screams METAAAAAALL!, its hilarious :D
:D It is fair to say that these guys are beyond doubt the most cheesy Metal act around !
Into The Moonlight is a great tune but i rolled round the floor laughing my arse off when i heard the big boomy Manowar style backing vocals singing "Man Or Mouse" !!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
:D 8)
-
The only new album I've bought this year which I actually like is the self-titled album by Witch, featuring J Mascis on drums. Brilliant, sloppy Sabbathy metal.
Every year I seem to buy less new things and spend more on replacing my ancient vinyl LPs with CDs. It's called middle age I suppose. Just recently I've been buying stuff by Roy Buchanan, Robin Trower and the Good Rats.
And, as always, I'm listening to Clutch.

PMSL!! :lol: :lol: I'm off to find it now. This sounds great!
Edit! I'm listing to the book of heavy metal. Great band sound! Please someone tell me this has got to be a spoof! Right?? :? Studs and skin tight leather! FFS! :lol:
Ok Into the Moonlight has just started! :wink: ....................... Zacky riff.........Is it after the solo the man or mouse bit? I feel short changed as the download stopped short of the funny bit!! :D
-
Dream Evil may have cheesy lyrics, but NOT cheesy music! :evil:
Gus G is the man!!
-
:D Have to agree with `ya Ben they do make very good music.
Sorry JM the Man Or Mouse lyric is on a different song ! The song is called MOM guess what it stands for !! :lol: :lol: :lol:
The main riff for "Into The Moonlight" sounds very much like the theme to Dr Who !! :lol: :lol: :lol:
I have to be fair here & say that for al the Cheese it is a FUN album which is nice to see.
:D 8)
-
hhahah listening to MOM right now :lol: so good! I love the guitar tone I have to say, thick and crunchy.
I love The Book of Heavy Metal though, best song ever as far as I'm concerned, awesome riff as well! "Read all about it! YES! READ IT!" that bit gets me every time :lol:
-
Best = Bullets and Octane - In The Mouth of The Young
Worst= well, on impulse and glowing review sticker on cover, bought Dragonforce - Inhuman Rampage. Now, not too offend, it is very good technically etc. but made me remember the '80's and why I turned to Metallica/Anthrax/Slayer/Metal Church et. all.
Other than that, replacing old LPs with CD's. Although sorely lacking my 300+ collection as er indoors had no space to bring em when she came over.
Maybe new BLS will be next/ok.
-
The Band- sublime stuff-I have the DVD of the Last Waltz- never get tired of it and their music is full of soul.
That IS good. I'll have to get that DVD for my old man (and for my enjoyment as well)
-
Can I change mine to 9 Short Films by Billy Sheehan and Terry Bozzio? I
just downloaded some Niacin stuff too -rocks.
Sheehan is amazing: Dave Lee Roth and the whole rock thing on the one hand; jazz fusion and Zappa type stuff with Niacin on the other; then on 9 Short Films one of the tracks sounds like an 80's "Japan". Top chap, very underrated and not a bad writer of a catchy song either.
Does anyone know who plays the geetar on 9 Short Films?
-
Joni Mitchell blows everyone away on "The Last Waltz".
-
Does anyone know who plays the geetar on 9 Short Films?
I think it's Sheehan himself! Haven't got the album though, so not 100% certain.
-
rory gallagher, big guns!
-
Are we all old farts on here? The Band, Rory Gallagher ! .
Or is it that's there's loads of tosh out there at the moment and the old stuff is just soooooo much better. I recommend the Old Grey Whistle Test dvd that is out, Rory is on there, along with Lynard Skinnard and loads of other greats. I am glad my dad brought me up listening to Zappa, Santana, the Band, CSNY, Canned Heat, ZZ Top and the like. I wish modern music was as raw and sincere. I suppose I should not complain my girlfriend was raised with Abba and Boney M, she now likes Robbie Williams and other drivel.
-

Thats the right answer, all (well, pretty much all) new music I hear is shitee indie bollocks. No one seems to "do" rock, I wish I was born when all the good bands were around.
-

That's what I've been thinking since I was 16 .:)
OK, to be fair, there are probably some cool new rock bands out there. The trick is -- as always, perhaps -- finding the beggars!
-

Masters of Reality: Masters of Reality
Is that the "Blue Garden" album? Brilliant, one of the greatest rock albums ever, as far as I'm concerned. I've been listening to it for 18 years and it never sounds dated.
-
Best Albums this year (so far):
Celtic Frost: Montheist - A long awaited return to form...
Atavist: Atavist - Mancunian mayhem, slooooooowwwwwww...
The Abominable Iron Sloth: The Abominable Iron Sloth - Incredibly groov-some sludge...

Kate Rusby: The Girl Who Couldn't Fly - Acoustic folk from South Yorks, awesome voice...
Keane: Under the Iron Sea - Say what you like about Keane, they can't half write some great songs...
Eagerly awaited: Voivod: Katorz - The final final album from an absolutely killer band after loosing Piggy (guitar) to Cancer earlier this year. The total INNOVATORS of technical metal. RIP Piggy... :(
-
Masters of Reality: Masters of Reality

That's the one. I bought it yonks ago myself but lost it moving house. It is a classic.
-
That " TOOL 10000 days" , has been a mayor happening, for me and Friends alike at work. :)
-
Stone Sour - Come What (Ever) May
-
Reccently bought a 20Gig MP3 player cheap (a Creative Zen Sleek) and had to find some music to fill it with.
Due to the lack of what I would call 'good rock' and especially space rock (I hate catagorys) a lot of what I bought is re-release or a year or so old.
Recently bought & Enjoyed the following:
Nuggets 1 & 2 (6 cds of) late 60s Psych & Garage, and it's even better than I remember it.
The Bees : Free The Bees ; Proper Summer sounds
Gomez : How we operate ; Typical untypical Gomez
Jah Wobble : I could have been a contender
The Mystey Jets : Making Dens
Robert randolph : Unclassified ; Amazing lap steel and so happy too.
Remmstein : Reise Reise ; Germans wih Humour excellent :)
Re Obtained :
Dread Zeppelin : Oh Yes
The Dukes of Stratosphear ; Had to buy it again
Syd Barrett ; All official releases (again)
Bootlegs :
A 4 Cd set of Warren Haynes cover versions (it's excellent)
CDs I'm waiting for or thinking about
Tool : 10,000 Days ; Heard a couple of tracks & loved it
Rooster : I heard bits of the new album in work today (bloody journalists) and it sounds like it may be worth buying.
Kasabian : Don't know if I like the current single but will probably buy the album.
I'm also waiting for Carlaz to release a Space Rock masterpiece across 12 CDs

just got another album delivered today and it's blown me away
Steve Vai - Passion and Warfare

Steve Vai - Passion and Warfare
My favourite Vai album and will have to buy it again as it was stolen on me years ago.
Rob...
-
i never really listened to Vai until i saw a video of the audience is listening on youtube and couldn't stop watching it :D:D
-
It's called middle age I suppose. Just recently I've been buying stuff by Roy Buchanan, Robin Trower and the Good Rats.
Little off topic but I accidently found this while looking to buy "That's what I am here for" but for those who don't know him.

Awesome!
Now that, young men, is what they mean when they say "it's all in the fingers". I'm proud to say I was at one of Roy Buchanan's very few British gigs (possibly his very last one?) at the Dominion Theatre in 1985. There he was, a portly middle-aged man with a flat cap and a Tele, using the support band (Martin Stephenson and the Daintees) as his backing musicians - and he made the hugest guitar sounds I've ever heard in my life.
I don't listen to Roy all the time, but every now and then I get sick of the sounds of downtuning, dual rectifiers, digital modelling and ProTools - so I go back and hear what a guitar really ought to sound like.
Kilby, thanks so much for that link. I've seen YouTube before but I never thought of searching for old music clips.
-
Guthrie Govan's first full-length album is finally out, anyone here heard of it yet? :D
http://www.cornfordrecords.com/
For 30sec clips, check out the Myspace site. :

-
Ah Roy Buchanan- he was a player and a half-if anyone wants to know about dynamics then he is one to study- tragic end for such a talented man. Tele's are amazing guitars.
-
just got hold of a bunch of Led Zeppelin albums:
Led Zep I, II, III, IV
Physical Graffiti I and II
Presence
Coda
In through the out door
BBC sessions
House of the holy

So far this year probably:
Colourblind by Chroma Key (ex-keyboarder guy from Dream Theatre)
10 000 Days by Tool
Now, Diabolical by Satyricon
Hasn't really been a wealth of quality releases so far this year imo.
