I think the Eagles of Death Metal has a lot of the same people as well. Haven't heard of Homme's. Another good one I just thought of in that category is Fu Manchu/Nebula.Quote:

I know what ya mean on the Springsteen and U2 Sid - I think radio kills them. But, very few can turn a lyric like Bono.

I have "The Cars" set up as its own playlist on my iPod. I can listen to that album straight thru anytime.
10 or 12 years ago NIN was my hands down favorite with Pretty Hate Machine blasting through the speakers

Sorry to chime in again on this thread. Well, not really...
...I love Mother Love Bone. A band (without drugs and death) that would have made it big time. These guys were the real deal in terms of "feel good" metal in it's purest sense. Even though surviving members went onto bigger and better things during the early -to- mid 90's grunge thing; one cannot overlook the influence of Mother Love Bone and Green River on music as a whole. Hanoi Rocks fits in this same category even though they lack the substance of MLB.
Basil, you continue to surprise me.

I tend to remember songs, not albums. Anyway, now that I have a new PC at home, and am getting an MP3 player, I can finally start filling it up with music that I have downloaded and y'all have given me a lot of things to check out once I start gong to Itunes.
CNB-
You might want to check out Napster as well. You can register a free account and listen to any music in their catalog up to 5 times for free. I like checking out some of the new groups I hear on the radio before I decide whether I'm going to plunk down cash based on one single.
Spinal Tap: Smell the Glove-- classic!

Check out Limewire as well. It is similar to napster of the old days, where you just download songs instead of paying money.
