I need some good music that is nothing but guitars, drums, bass, and vocals. No other instruments. Piano is allowed, but only in moderation. I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks ^__^
-
Beethoven's 5th.
-
Big Star
Deerhoof
Any help at all?
-
There's a band..some call them "Ted Leo & Pharmacists".
-
gb2 /1970, rockfag!

There's this one album....these guys from Louisville, Kentuckey recorded it, I think...it came out in the 90s...I remember Steve Albini really liked it...hmmmm....
Oh yeah, Rodan's Rusty.
-
These may be 'Illegal words' around here, but I'd recommend Linkin Park for the description you give. It had Bass, drums, guitar and vocal. Occasionally piano, but only in a few songs.
-
Fugazi

You mean the band. 8-)

What?
Anyway,
I recommend
Boris
Sebadoh
Shipping News
Mclusky
I'd throw in Don Caballero but they're totally instrumental.
-

That's just mean.
-
Listen to My Disco. Three-piece math-rock band.
-
I recommend Blue Cheer (by which I mean the album "Vincebus Eruptum"), Masters of Reality (specifically the album "Sunrise on the Sufferbus"), and Witch. I also second Boris.
And hell, might as well ... you may be tired of me talking about them (if you've been listening) but Dead Meadow kicks ass. Get the self-titled, it just get reissued.
-
I'm not familiar enough with any of the bands mentioned so far (for the most part) but it seems to me that people aren't taking this as a gag thread.
I don't know how anyone could think this is anything other than a gag thread.
-
The linkin park guy thought you were just stupid.
Honest mistake, I'm sure.
-
Bikini Kill
-
If you're going for minimalism, Wire is about as stripped to the bone as guitar/bass/drums get.
-
Ramones. any record except End Of The Century because there's more than just the specified instrumentation. i recommend rocket to russia and too tough to die.

It's not a gag? I really do need new music, and it has to be something I can play to. And I can play drums, guitar, and bass, and I can sing (poorly). This is a sincere request! ^__^

Spiderland.

Listen to My Disco. Three-piece math-rock band.
'math-rock'? I think i've been to a few of their gigs, and i remember it being... loud and chaotic. And loud. There are alot of other bands they play with alot, who are... loud. and chaotic. Is this also math rock?

You mean THE band. cool
(http://www.nothingnice.com/comics/20050530.gif) This happened to me on my 20th birthday. I still have the scars.
-
Jawbreaker! Leatherface! Hot Water Music! Eastern Youth! Latterman! Dillinger Four!
-
Drive like Jehu. Jets to Brazil. though, if you aren't already listening to JTB, i'd be a tad surprised.
-
Lawrence Arms! um...
uh...
Someone already said JTB, dammit. THE FUCKING CASUALTIES!
-
I recomend you check out this band called "90% of pop/rock made in the last 60 years". They're really good.
Also, Deerhoof actually might not qualify seeing has they use a good deal of electronic stuff. Also, on the next album, horns.
-
Try some Ted Leo and the Pharmacists
-
We already said that.
Sleater-Kinney?
-
There's something going around about Ted Leo playing my frat, but apparently he wants 5000 bucks, and we want to be able to pay his openers too, whoever they may end up being. If we don't make it a heavily-advertised paid concert, we won't be able to bring him at all.
I'm not making this up, by the way.
-
We already said that.
Sleater-Kinney?
Didn't we already say that too? I really don't know; I can't be bothered to read the whole topic.
-
hey, how about sleater kinney?
-

Anal Cunt.
-
Either Ted Leo or Sleater-Kinney is what you're looking for.
-
I'd like to 5th Sleater-Kinney 'cuz seriously Sleater-Kinney is pretty fucking good.
-

seriously, it's good listening. makes you respect music as a whole a whole lot more.
-
Actually I don't need to beat myself over the head with horrible shit to appreciate good music, much in the same way that I don't have to fuck a bench saw to appreciate an attractive lady.

That's one of the best things I've ever read. Seriously!! You win the internet.

I'm guessing you didn't catch the sarcasm. oh well, this is the interwebz.
-

...and a ridiculously large amount of crazy-processed samples. I don't think they could be much further away from Kim's description.

Plus, Linkin Park sucks. Have we established this yet?? I had to hear them all the fucking time when I was in high school because they were just becoming popular and everyone thought they were so 'with it' by listening to Linkin Park. One of my good friends nearly got into a fight in a computer class because this scrawny, pathetic white kid (who spent most of the class playing rap as loud as he could) had Linkin Park on one day and refused to turn it down. Our teacher was the prototypical "bald, single, middle aged guy who likes Apple a little too much" and never did anything about this asshole. So my friend says "fuck this" and walks over to the kid's computer and turns it off. The kid instantly stands up and pushes him, so my friend pushes him back, and the teacher RUNS over between them and tells both of them to go back to work, and bans everyone from listening to music from then on out.
So when I think of Linkin Park, I not only think of terrible music, I think of pieces of shit who don't have the common decency to NOT force their music on everyone else. Linkin Park fans may think the music I like sucks, but I don't see myself or other people like me with Guided By Voices or Ween blaring from our cars.

Thanks to all you guys, I'm going to hit up Demonoid and see if they have any torrents there. Which they probably don't (and if they do, there's probably no seeders). But I am definitely going to check this stuff out. Thanks guys!
-
Like 9/10 of the music I listen to is purely guitar, bass, drums and vocals probably more in fact.
I went to see Dragonforce again last night, so I am going to reccommend them. Because they rocked the socks off everyone in the crowd.
-
Motorhead.
-
The Eyeball Kid, dude, posting Mitch Clem strips is my job!
-

Actually I did, but I wasn't gonna let a trifling thing like sarcasm get in the way of my solid gold witticism
-
Motorhead.
Eh, if it's anywhere near as fuckin' BIZARRE as Lemmy's project before Motorhead (the band Hawkwind), I think I'll have to pass. If it's not acid-induced space rock, however, I will go for it, because despite Lemmy was a bloody hero in the Hawkwind recordings.
-
Hawkwind is "amazing" in sanskrit.

wait
you've never listened to motorhead?
whaaaaaaaa
-

Hawkwind is "amazing" in any language you care to mention!
Incidentally, banned in Dundee
-
Motorhead is about as far from Hawkwind as possible. But like Kai said, I'm mildly stunned you've never heard of them before. I thought everybody knew Ace of Spades, at least.

I've heard OF them, I just haven't heard their stuff :B
-
I'm considering getting drunk so I can shout at you for six pages for not having heard Motorhead.
-
Dude, do it, your drunken posts are awesome.
-
Never heard Motorhead?! X__X
-
Follow-up: Jesus Christ. Ted Leo and the Pharmacists. I have been listening to Shake the Sheets and Tyranny of Distance for the past hour or so and I can honestly say, GOD DAMN. At the moment I'm listening to "Timorous Me" and I've decided that I am in love with this man.
-

Thats the only one I ever post. None of the other ones are relevant to my life ever, unlike QC strips.
Also I don't get any of the other jokes
Except the one about Guitar Wolf
Who also rock
S-K were okay live, but not as good as Ted Leo in a tiny venue
-

I don't know them musically, but Micheal Moorcock wrote about both Lemmy and Hawkwind, and wasn't Lemmy in Hawkwind? My knowledge of these bands comes from fantasy novels, mostly
-

Springsteen and the Hold Steady are all the rock i need, though they often have organs, pianos, and keyboard bits. but in moderation
-

Lemmy used to play bass in Hawkwind, and sing sometimes. Michael Moorcock also used to be in Hawkwind. He mainly shouted deranged shit about wizards.
-
It's kind of funny because I stopped liking QC quite awhile ago, but I still read the strips out of habit. The forum is pretty kickass, though. :-D
-
Micheal Moorcock
LOL MOORCOCK
All I have by Hawkwind is the Space Ritual 2-disc live album. And don't get me wrong, I like their music and all of that, and the idea of space rock is generally badass (especially with their execution of it). But the theremin-sounding thing needs to bugger off. I'm sorry, but this isn't Ray Bradbury's The Martian Chronicles made into a movie soundtrack.
I will be sure to grab some Motorhead though before I leave for the States on Friday. That'll be good shit.
