Like anything, it depends on the artist. If it wasnt for rock instrumentals, we wouldnt have a song called, "Judy is a Dick Slap". Obviously we are all better off because we do.

instrumental songs in rock music is good, depending on the artists.
I personally find Joe Satriani to be an unbelievabley great instrumental rock artist. |

I'm pretty indifferent. Most of the time they can be rather boring, and tedious. But other times they are just fucking awesome like The Who's Quadrophenia and The Rock.

Some of them are absolutely wonderful. Take Placebo's "Bulletproof Cupid" that opens Sleeping With Ghosts...

I'm a huge fan of The Church and Steve Kilbey, and out of several hundred songs Steve has written (solo, as part of The Church, or in collaborations with other artists), my favorites include several instrumentals
Film The Temptation of St. Anthony Gloriana Loki (I named one of my cats after this song -- and after the norse god Loki) Tragic Mandarin Love Story Happy Hunting Ground All right up there in my list of favorites. If they are good songs, they are good songs. (And you don't have to worry about that plague of so many rock songs -- asinine lyrics! ![]() |
