wickedfleaAll right, I'm going to be up working for a good while tonight, so you hip chicks and fellers gotta give me something to keep checking in on.
Tell me your top five rock songs of all time. Er, OK--I don't really believe in ranking music like that, so just give me five songs that really kick ass. It can be pretty much anything, but it has to rock. "You Dropped a Bomb on Me"? Fine. That song thumps. "Ripple"? Nuh-uh. Great song (yes, I'm actually admitting to liking a Grateful Dead song), but it just don't rock, dig? And try to think of something that's practically perfect. Like if the bridge sucks, don't list it. If it's got a kung-fu jam section that gets a little too out there, kill it. Oh, and try to limit yourself to one song per band.
Here's five from me. OK, so I can't limit myself to five, so here's a few. Gimme however many you want to.
"Kill Yourself"--Stormtroopers of Death
"Fun House"--The Stooges
"Bonin' in the Boneyard"--Fishbone
"Ace of Spades"--Motorhead
"Into the Void"--Black Sabbath
"In My Time of Dying"--Led Zeppelin
"Ghouls' Night Out"--The Misfits
"Thieves"--Ministry
"Joe McCarthy's Ghost"--The Minutemen
"She Watch Channel Zero?!"--Public Enemy (w/ a killer Slayer sample)
OK, what's that, ten? Wow, and that's leaving all kinds of bands out. I'd better stop and get to work. Discuss amongst yourselves.

Re: MRS. Brownstone?
Date: 2003-02-11 06:20 pm (UTC)Death Certificate is Ice Cube's finest piece of work....well at least as far as I'm concerned. It's an album you just can't live without.
If you're so sock-ily gifted, do you know the sock rule??
Re: MRS. Brownstone?
Date: 2003-02-11 06:32 pm (UTC)Socks aren't vegetables, man, they should be wiped out?
I before E, except after sock?
Or is it more practical, like don't jack off in your favorite sock?
My secret is out--I should have paid more attention in 11th-grade laundry class . . .

I'm gonna make a post about socks on my journal now because my sock-story is too long to write as a comment.

Date: 2003-02-12 01:41 pm (UTC)I dunno, Flavor Flav always kind of ruined that whole P.E. album for me, his style just seems kind of gratuitous to me, and he's almost sycophantic towards Chuck D. It's always "Yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaahh boy-eee!" to whatever Chuck says.
