    Captain Beefheart

    Anybody into this guy? Wow, I just discovered some of his music on You Tube and was blown away. WAY ahead of his time. Any recommendations of what music to start with? I actually read a Bono interview with him I guess a few years ago. Seemed like Captain Beefheart got a kick out of Bono giving...

    MERGED ----> Rush Thread - ALL RUSH DISCUSSION HERE

    Just wondering if anyone has heard the new Rush album yet? I have heard about 6 songs so far and they sound pretty strong. Sounds like they have got back some of their mojo.

    Win Butler reacts to NME article

    Win has just posted a message at Arcadefire.com where he in rather harsh words criticises the NME article, especially the part about musical marketing nowadays... Just shows that NME hasn't changed at all. Here's the message: I cringe to ever write this post, as if It needs to be said, but...

    After U2, who´s next?

    U2 has been king of the mountain for quite a while. Probably the best band of our generation and top 5 of all time. But when the curtain falls, who could take their place? Coldplay, The Killers, The Arcade Fire? Or possibly Muse? I am wondering at this point if Muse could be on target to do so...

    Pitchfork-what are your thoughts?

    I like to take a look at their site sometimes. But sometimes they seem to be like a "indie bully". I was wondering what other Interferencers thought about them. Are they the "Holy Grail of modern musical views" or a pretentious bunch of whiners, or neither?

    "Drowning Man" -A beauty!!!

    I´ve had War, oh god, for it seems like 70 years. I had always liked "Drowning Man", but not until the level I do now. My god, what a song and one of the most beautiful things U2 or any band has ever done. I think it´s quite sophisticated of a song that could have been an absolute bore if done...

    Beautiful Day-Best rock/pop song of the decade-so far?

    For a the last few years, I have completely loathed ATYCLB. But recently, for some reason, I have grown to like it as much as I did when it came out. The one song I just can´t get enough of now is Beautiful Day. Yes it is a very overplayed song, but my god, what a powerful song it is. IMO, I...

I saw this thread this morning and didn´t have time to respond. Came back and saw it was closed:mad...

    Achtung baby/Zoo TV the biggest risk in rock history?

    Was AB the biggest risk for a rock band ever? Throw in Zoo TV, which might of been even a bigger risk than the album. I have thought over every other conceivable moment in rock history with albums, style changes and tours for as many bands and performers as I can think of, but I have to say I...

    How to rediscover the atomic bomb

    I am sure this has been talked about before, so forgive me if this is re-hashing the same old shit. Currently (maybe the grammy thing and seeing them live in Brazil did this) I have had a complete rediscovery of The Bomb. Honestly, I loved it at first, then started hating it with a passion...

    U2 has one airplane just for their chefs??

    I am a foreigner living in Brazil and yesterday my sister-in-law told me that U2´s demands were printed in a largely published national magazine. It stated, according to her, that U2 has one airplane soley for their chefs and their food to eat during the tour. Essentially it made it out to be...

    MERGED--> Ticket mess in Brazil + Chaos as U2 tickets go on sale in Brazil

    Ticket mess in Brazil I am an American living in Brazil and I just wanted to report the complete mess that U2 fans are going through to get tickets. First off, the original price for the tickets was $R 160 Brazilian (about $70 US) for most seats and $R1000 Brazilian for seats next to the stage...

    Achtung Baby vs. Ok Computer

    I know there was a thread similar to this a few weeks ago (comparing albums), but since there was a new thread recently about Q´s 100 best albums of all time, I thought it would be nice to compare what I consider the two essential albums of the last 20 years. These are my two favorite bands (U2...
