I'd never heard this song before Destructis posted it on one of my 80's music threads, will always remind me of him. A really good motivational song, IMO.
The rusty wire that holds the cork that keeps the anger in Gives way and suddenly it’s day again The sun is in the east Even though the day is done Two suns in the sunset, hmph Could be the human race is run
Speaking of TOOL, if you’re at all into wine and you’re also interested in what makes Maynard James Keenan “tick”, I highly recommend the film “Blood into Wine”. ( http://www.bloodintowine.com/ )
Changing the subject, since it’s the first day of summer here, I’m gunna post this great live performance from a couple of summers ago here in Toronto that IMO could be classified as hard rock. (more like punk blues or garage rock but pretty hard) Gotta love the ladies in summer dresses, am I right people?!
I think I’ll also post this HD Alter Bridge concert. Although I don’t hear a lot from them up here in Canada, I think they’re a really talented band (basically the members of Creed (ya, I know) but with Miles Kennedy replacing Scott Stapp) ...
Classic! Sounds like hard rock was basically invented and refined in the late 60’s, early 70’s.
Here’s another good example ... Steppenwolf’s Born to be Wild (1968) ...
Probably best used in the “Easy Rider” (1969) soundtrack. ...
“Easy Rider” was my nickname during the summer of ‘84 at my summer job. I was trying to show off by cornering my motorcycle into the parking lot too fast and I hit a puddle and wiped out. A co-worker couldn't stop laughing and called me "Easy Rider" from then on out. I ripped my jeans open and everything.
Nice listen. I especially enjoyed Judas Priest and Humble Pie, watching the live concert I was going 'Wow, that's so cool, how come I've never seen that before.' lol
