Maybe because Mastodon is somewhat annoying and WYWH sucks.

Why, because they don't have Thom Yorke moaning incomprehensibly over contrived electronics and/or hilariously over-praised modern rock?

My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want!

And Alex was still alive then.

What?

Oh well, they'll have to perform as a trio then

I really dunno. I've never found a problem listening to anything I like from any era without fear of embarrassment. I certainly don't think music has ever "died" as it were, more that certain periods of time have produced less of what I regard as "good stuff" than others.

The older I get the more pleased I am that I'm seeking out new stuff and there's enough of the parasite in me to see what seems to be hot on PA and pick up on it - at least try it anyway - and my reward has been getting really into The Decemberists, Mastodon, Karmakanic, Pendragon and others that I never would have heard without PA.

My son's 17 so I naturally get to hear what's fresh across the Metal genres from him, but he's not into prog and nor are any of my friends. Equally he loves a lot of my old metal so I don't rip him off!

i do have this horrible trait of retreating into sarcasm when i see certain recurring themes in the forum - I don't like to be too serious - just enjoy the forums and my music.

Now, time to set out for the pub and listen to that worthless trash that will probably make it a certainty that Iggy will reform the Stooges for one reason only... so that ALL FOUR of them can p*ss on my grave!

Damn right, I do. You all are a gaggle of pretentious fools, and you are all wrong, all the time, always and forever.

Die, you cretins, in your pitiful obscurity as you listen to substandard music.

As a proud cretin who is happy to be part of a gang of pretentious fools I am going on a one-hour walk to a different pub today (

) so I shall indulge myself in the sheer unadulterated stupidity of listening to Mastodon's Crack the Skye on the way there and Pendragon's Pure on the way back.

I must be one of the most dim-witted of us - these albums were made so long after 1989 that they're almost fresh. I don't even have the sense to stick my head in the sand and stick with the traditonal, classic rubbish that most of my peer group apparently listens to.

So Yah, Boo Sucks - I'm a Teenage Lobotomy. (Well, I'm 51 actually, but I still don't have a cerebellum)

...a Judas Priest tribute album is not bad though... LOL

I've pretty much had it with all music. Now excuuuse me while I go stick an ice pick in my forehead.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
