Tonight I cooked dinner whilst getting down to some old school 90s hip hop... Namely Wu Tang's 36 Chambers, the Gravediggaz 6 Feet Deep and DJ Shadow's Endtroducing. They're all amazing and should be in everyone's record collection (for a variety of reasons!).

Angelina

Kris I normally listen to Sabaton, Powerwolf

cool, I also have Sabaton and Powerwolf in my playlist 😃

Sin My other home town claim to fame is ACDC... I live 500m from the actual "Highway to Hell" road! 😅

😂

a little joke from Facebook:
Info for all the younger ones: The Who is not the World Health Organisation. 🤣

Sin Pendulum are pretty good. About a decade ago i went and seen them in the Corn Exchange in Edinburgh. Only got to see 20min of them before my wife got crowded and started freaking out. Ended up having to leave after 4 songs was gutted.

DJ Shadow is really good i like him as well.

Angelina

Philip 20min of them before my wife got crowded and started freaking out.

that's exactly why i choose the peopl with whom i go to concerts according to what their taste in music is. 😂

Lukas

wow, you listen to almost the same music as me, i think i would go to concerts with you 😉
However, of the bands you mentioned, I have only seen Billy Talent and Green Day live so far.

Maija

Insaneintherainmusic ftw, his album "year 7" especially!

Lukas

Led Zepplin, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath/Ozzy Osborne, Judas Priest, AC/DC and so on. Everything that's said to contain satanical messages, because I like the music and also because it triggers my parents. Also Grunge of any kind, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam. Sometimes a little Pop-Punk like blink-182, Green Day, Billy Talent and stuff like that. So mainly rock music of any kind.

youdontknowme

Lukas because I like the music and also because it triggers my parents

Then I hope you will soon experience resurrection

Sin

Angelina wow, you listen to almost the same music as me

OMG you're so bogan! This I did not expect!! 😛

Lukas

Angelina I've also seen Green Day live, together with my uncle and my two cousins in Cologne in 2017. They are insanely good.

Angelina

Sin OMG you're so bogan! This I did not expect!! 😛

i have many character traits. My rock/metal/punk/goth music preference is one of them 😃

PS: I had to google the word first. Found it under "29 ways Australians insult". 😂

Lukas

Cool, maybe I'll see you at a concert, I'm the one with the chastity belt haha 😂

The world's first conservative goth punk!

Angelina PS: I had to google the word first. Found it under "29 ways Australians insult"

"Bogan" is not an insult, it's a cultural icon! I think the German equivalent would be "Proll".... It's kind of like a redneck in America or a Chav in England. You can spot them in the wild doing burnouts in their V8s in a McDonalds carpark, or getting drunk at a strip club in Bali. AC/DC is the soundtrack of choice!

Sin The world's first conservative goth punk!

well, that all punks and goths are left-wing is also a prejudice. i was at a goth meeting with friends the other day, and some of them also have conservative and liberal positions. I'm not really conservative either. PS: especially among goths, conservative values such as politeness are very widespread.

Sin I think the German equivalent would be "Proll"..

I know, but that's also kind of insulting (as I see it).

Sin

I'm a big fan of Nick Cave, and when I heard Red Right Hand today it seemed strangely relevant to this site.

Sin

Angelina I wouldn't say punks and goths are necessarily left wing... just not conservative. Punk is by definition anti-establishment. And manners are not just the domain of right wing people. There are more than enough self-righteous assholes in that camp!

Sin

Angelina I know, but that's also kind of insulting (as I see it).

I'm not sure what a proll is, but Australians have a strange affection for "bogans". I guess it's due to our convict past, we are the scum of the earth after all.

It wasn't that many generations ago you could say to an Australian "Your dad is a bastard and your mum is a whore!" and the standard response would have been "Oh... Did you know them?"

you always have to distinguish between real right-wingers and conservatives. i am also anti-establishment, but not left-wing. that is a difference to many punks, but this anti-attitude connects us.
and goths and punks are two different worlds again. so far i have only met one person who belongs to both scenes.

well, both have something to do with being uneducated and vulgar.

Sin

Angelina uneducated and vulgar.

That sums up a bogan perfectly!

Angelina

Sin That sums up a bogan perfectly!

oh come on. i graduated from school with top marks and am on 95% in my studies. i hardly think i'm uneducated. 😉

But back to the music. Yesterday, after posting here, I listened to more goth classics again, most famously The Cure and Sisters of Mercy. 😉

LoonyMel

At the moment my two most listened artists are on a total different style. One is the group named Heilung and the other is Paul Shapera. Jumping from cyber/diesel/atompunk artist to north european ancient music and i love both.

...oh, and totally out of the blue, last tune i listened to was Lady In Black. Uriah Heep.

But that's the tip of the pointy part of the iceberg detached from my big arctic glacier.

Joh

Angelina Sisters of Mercy is great but not Goth. 1983 it didn't exist.
