Do you only have SOAD's singles, or are you listening to s/t in there?

Death- "Suicide Machine"
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

I have access to whatever Mrtzcmp3 and Mp3Skull have on "wax" (though I had to do a little Foreign Shopping to get my hands on Salt-N-Pepa's "Giddy Up"... that one's quite the slippery sucker). I only bothered with the singles and they only released 2 ("Sugar" and "Spiders") before 2000, which naturally is my cut-off year.   ;D

I'm currently in the H-I-J area. James - who I can't believe I've never heard until this week, Ini Kamoze, Ja Rule, Jade, Jane's Addiction, Hanson, Imogen Heap, Jay-Z, Janet Jackson, Imani Coppola (and one of my favorite albums, Chupacabra- and I can't find a Google Image for her "It's All About Me, Me, and Me"; which Wiki informs me was a single) and Hole. Who will be making my list quite a few times- they have an impressive pre-Live Through This catalog. Which I've known since I was a huge fan of theirs as a teen, but I wasn't aware "Dicknail" was a single (though that won't be making the list, not with so much more to choose from).

"Old Age" is playing right now - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYsNB4_yt-M . Should have been a single! Instead, it's "Violet"s B-side. I should cheat and put it on the list anyway but... I've already literally cooked up / doctored a few cover pics for songs Wiki told me were singles. I have to have "Navy Bean" on my list: https://myspace.com/tracybonham/music/song/navy-bean-68382-77345 . So, I'm just blaming this on Wiki.
Well, I got so burned out on the road
Too many fags, too much blow
And then Mick and I split up and I said,
"Kid, it's time to take a little bit of a hiatus."
So I got myself a gig at the coffee shop
and I love it.
Why don't you take that corner booth,
I'll take your order in a minute...

Avenged Sevenfold- "Requiem"

Since I'm seeing the Ghost show where they're opening for A7X, I figured that I should check out their new album. It's definitely taking more cues from Sabbath and Maiden, which is a good thing, but it's still not beyond okay.

Not a fan of A7X myself, but from what I've seen, a lot of the fanbase seems to be thinking that Hail To The King is a step down. I only hear them bitch about it all the time on another forum I'm on.  :D

Well they deliberately went for an old-school vibe here, so that's probably what alienated a lot of fans.

Which is funny, because their most popular (and best, IMO) album, City of Evil, is almost straight Maiden-fappage.

Always a good time for RIP.

The Shadow Gentleman

Headed down south to the land of the pines
I'm thumbin' my way into North Caroline
Starin' up the road, pray to God I see headlights
I made it down the coast in seventeen hours
Pickin' me a bouquet of dogwood flowers
And I'm a hopin' for Raleigh
I can see my baby tonight...

I'm listening to a wonderful rendition of Shostakovich's 4th symphony.

FINALLY got the final 999 set. That is, the selections. Working on ranking now... that takes awhile. Right now, Pharcyde is playing.

Bastille - Bad Blood

Dayum. All these great debut albums coming from new bands this year and all my usual staples are going to make my top ten at the end of the year a really, really difficult one.

Fleshgod Apocalypse- "Elegy"

Death metal and symphonic. Goes together pretty well, actually, although sometimes it sounds like freaking TSO.
