noseforbeer december reviews

Gorillaz, Demon Days “3”
This was a hard one to judge, some of the cuts are very good, others not. I do appreciate
the ability to come up with a different sound on almost every song, overall I think its pretty cool.

Blind Faith “1.5”
Not much to say, it wasn't total horrible , it just did nothing for me.

New York Dolls “3.5”
I have never sat down and really listened to the Dolls before. At first I was not at all impressed, but the more I listened the more it grew on me. I ended up liking it a lot.

My Morning Jacket, Two “4”
This is a good CD, the music is very rich and smooth. They really know how to use keyboards to blend and accompany the music without overpowering or sterilizing, like so many bands that use keyboards do. The use of the keyboards reminds me of why I liked Keane so much when I herd them for the first time.

Iron Maiden“2.5”
This brought back some teen memories better left forgotten. This was the stuff I was listening to in high school. I do like Iron Maiden, Venom, and Motorhead more than most of the shitty metal bands of the eighties. The Brit metal bands had something the American ones didn't, they were worried more about the music than cross dressing.
Five Radio Programs

Well, I am so out of touch with commercial radio I will be completely unrealistic:

1. Monty Python, Skits and songs

2.Eighty's hardcore punk, Dead Kennedy's, Crass, Circle Jerks, Subhumans, and more. This way todays kids can hear real punk, not that whiny Blink 182, Sum 41, Linken Park pussy stuff.

3.Covers / Originals, Play a newer cover followed by the original. (seems to be a lot of covers nowadays)

4.Ramones, Why not? They deserve it, and more.

5.Alt. Country, I could never get enough of that!
