Songs that rock

Graag · January 6, 2003, 12:07

Was going through mp3s that I don't listen to very often and came across Babe I'm Gonna Leave You by Led Zep... by god does that song rock.

I need more songs that just rock like a mother****a, suggestions?

Smoke on the water - Deep Purple

Graag · January 6, 2003, 13:06

Ah, got that long ago

Come on people. What do you listen to when you've had a couple of drinks, or a smoke, and just want to listen to something damn good, something you can get your teeth into?

smoke on the water, max cavalera remake (may also be found as sepultura or soulfly)

mudvayne, goodbye, mercy/severity, the patient mental.

mushroomhead, before i die, bwomp.

other than the really obvious ones, like Bat out of Hell, the one that springs to mind is Party Hard by Andrew WK

You asked for it: Genesis' "Second's Out" live album, the "The lamb lies down on Broadway - The musical Box" medley.

The theme from Gundam Wing.

Inverse Icarus · January 6, 2003, 14:17

Foo Fighters: Low

anything by spineshank (new disease, transparent, height of callousness, seamless, etc...)

mudvayne is good for rocking.

Mercator · January 6, 2003, 14:51

We're not gonna take it - The Who (live at Woodstock)
Purple Haze - Jimi Hendrix (preferably Woodstock too)
Manic Depression - Jimi Hendrix
Great King Rat, My Fairy King, White Queen, Tie Your Mother Down, Stone Cold Crazy etc. all by Queen

Graag · January 6, 2003, 20:34

Thx for the suggestions... Mercator seems to be closest to my tastes (Jimi, The Who), though I will be investigating the other suggestions.

I think I've listened to Babe I'm Gonna Leave you about 8 times in a row now... sometimes you just gotta keep it on repeat till it hurts

Tuberski · January 6, 2003, 20:46

MattyBoy · January 7, 2003, 02:34

"Babe I'm Gonna Leave you" got me hooked on Led Zep. Also try "Heartbreaker", "Good Times, Bad Times", "Black Dog", "No Quarter", "When the Levy Breaks", "BRON-Y-AUR STOMP"

Jimi Hendrix: "Cross Town Traffic"

SoundGarden: "Spoonman" and anything else from "Superunknown"

Anything on the album "DJ Aphrodite: v.2" by "DJ Aphrodite"

AC/DC: "You Shook Me All Night Long", "Whole Lotta Rosie"

Graag · January 7, 2003, 02:42

Thx for suggestions Speer, Matty

Hehe, I'm not inaarested in individual Zep songs, I must now have ALL Zep songs

No more Jimi suggestions, I've got everything I can find already

MattyBoy · January 7, 2003, 02:46

I forgot my all time favourite

Cold Chisel:
"Standing On The Outside", "Taipan", "Houndog", "Letter to Alan", "Goodbye (Astrid Goodbye)"

Dr. A. Cula · January 7, 2003, 02:56

Judas Priest: "Living Bad Dreams", "Diamonds & Rust" (from the "'98 Live Meltdown" album), "Desert Plains", Johnny B. Goode"
Motorhead: "I Don't Believe A Word", "Orgasmatron"

And before you grab your pitchfork, just listen to them.

MattyBoy · January 7, 2003, 03:07

Probably wandering too far now, but maybe:
"Pretty Piece of Flesh - One Inch Punch"

Left Field:
Afrika Shox
Phat Planet

Public Enemy
Fight the Power
Welcome to the Terrordome

Face to Face - I Won't Lie Down
The Offspring - Come out Swinging
Chevelle - Comfortable Liar
Filter - Captain Bligh

Dis · January 7, 2003, 05:34

nearly everyone of Led Zepps songs rock like that

Get their box set!! great box set.

Dis · January 7, 2003, 05:35

and might I recommend Deep Purple- no not smoke on the water. That is overplayed. Songs like fireball and child in time (well that is a ballad- so that doesn't rock).

Blue Oyster Cult has a few weird ones as well. They aren't like your typical classic rock band. They have their own unique style. They aren't for everyone.

Well, it's just that I seem to have that effect on people when I recommend music.

Oh, and how about "Mandrake Root" by Deep Purple, or "Running Free" by Iron Maiden? Good songs, but they tend to be overlooked as they're quite different from what the bands did later on.

Bereta_Eder · January 7, 2003, 07:48

The Fuzztones rock...

Bas · January 7, 2003, 08:01

Some are a bit depressive, but anyway:

Alice in chains - Would?, Dam that river
Soundgarden - Jesus christ pose, face pollution, an unkind
Therapy? - epilepsy, ten year plan, church of noise
Bad Religion - supersonic, can't stop it, give you nothing, faith in god
Husker Du - Signals from above, in a free land
Pearl jam - rearviewmirror, corduroy, spin the black circle, brain of j

That should keep you busy for a while.
