Re: Music That Really Winds You Up
I'm with Quarknosis. Many things I find dreary such as Stereophonics, Coldplay et al.... and I hate posey stuff like Van Halen etc etc... But it's the ' My wife left me for my dawg, stole my truck and left me with hungry children and a crop in the field'... and so on and so forth. Eat your children! What's the problem? C and W has me running for the off switch.

I'm not into the 'achey breakey' bling c&w...but Emmylou Harris, Willie Nelson, Hank Williams, Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash, James Hand, Dolly Parton, Kris Kristofferson, Loretta Lynn; they all make me cry for all the right reasons.kimangelis wrote: ↑Thu Aug 24, 2017 4:32 pm I'm with Quarknosis.

Re: Music That Really Winds You Up
I can live with most types of music, some more than others but it's the bag o shite X Factor style of drivel that makes me want to poke my own ear drums out. Some breathy, whiney little bint or an primped up chav yelling out the same three notes, occasionally in a different order, simply to line the pockets of Simon Cowell et al.
Right, I've vented my spleen and it feels so much better.

Re: Music That Really Winds You Up
Agree on both counts except there is a Band from Bristol called "Cut Capers" who play a blend of hip hop that I quite like. I like the girls voice and the power of the brass section. Worth a listen?

Re: Music That Really Winds You Up
Remids me of the intro to an Alberto e Los Trios Paranoias song. There's a bloke strumming a guitar, set up like a folk singer, he sayssavvypaul wrote: ↑Thu Aug 24, 2017 3:05 pm Throbbing Gristle.

I like it for art's sake, but I have been told that they are now banned from home and office when other human beings, or dogs, or cats are present.
