Odds & ends (rock out with your cock out edition):
The first person to leave a comment with the name of the Scorpions' 1984 album which featured "Rock You Like A Hurricane" (no looking it up, scout's honor applies) will get a copy of an mp3CD (700MB) of rock I recently made, on which "Hurricane" is featured. Here's a hint: the album title is also a lyric in the song.
I always heard Jon Bon Jovi's "who's bad, who's bad?" (circa the 4:05 mark of "Bad Medicine" as a taunt towards MJ, myself, coming as it did so shortly after the Bad album.
Anyone else think we - and the legacy of Ministry - would've been better off had Alain Jourgensen actually OD'd from heroin circa 1992 (or '94 at the latest)?
Skid Row's second album, Slave to the Grind, was actually pretty decent. First single "Monkey Business" rocks pretty f-in' hard. No, really. When Sebastian and the boys weren't busy being homophobic pussy assholes, they actually kinda knew how to crank.
The biggest problem with limpbizkit's cover of The Who's chestnut "Behind Blue Eyes" is easy: they're scared to do anything with it. At least when they covered "Faith," they did something with it. I hated the result, but at least give them credit for attempting to be interesting - which is apparently beyond Durst's peabrain these days.
Speaking of, Townshend's best solo effort by far is "Rough Boys."
