Favorite Artist/Band

[runwhiteyrun06]

The guilty pleasures thread made me think of this.


I'm curious what you boardees consider as your favorite band/artist? If you can't just do one, you can do your top 3. I think the results will be interesting.


My favorite artist of all time is John Cale.

did you ever listen to the john cale/lou reed "songs for drella" album.  that, and twin peaks, can make me auto-ejaculate.

We should have a reveal/boarder photo thread.

We should have a reveal/boarder photo thread.

i might do that.  only if everybody else does.  that would be fun.

and my favourite band of all time . . . the ramones.

But no one wants to see the real faces of people on the internet!



And in regards to drella, it is a really good album. Too bad Lou Reed has to be a prick anytime he works with anyone else. (I'm a huge Lou Reed fan too).

As for my favorites, I'd have to say:

Favorite Band: The Minutemen
Favorite Record: Psychocandy
Favorite Song: She Bangs the Drums

[Frank Gallagher]

Impossible for me to answer because my top 3 change with my moods/the weather.

Those that seem to appear the most consistently

Smiths/Morrissey
Bowie
James

Honorable mentions

Waterboys
Pogues/MacGowan
Squeeze
Clash
Mundy


I could actually add to this list all night so I'll stop there......

Good pick with Bowie. He is also one of my favorites. Too bad people ignore everything post Scary Monsters. His 90s and 2000s albums are quite good.

i saw bowie at patriot, which i guess was his last tour years back.  and even though it was at patriot, i had great floor seats.  he was one of those shows you never forget and glad you got to see him once.

[Bombay Chutney]

The Grateful Dead
R.E.M.
Then it's like a 10-way tie for 3rd.

[Mr.Whippy]

That is a really difficult question, but if I had to narrow it down to 3:

Neil Young
Tool
Richard Thompson

Those are probably the 3 artists that feel most like they have tapped into my soul.

[lagas]

tough question, as of now
Patti Smith
TOOL
Van Der Graaf Generator

[serpent boy]

Pearl Jam

[hutch]

Impossible to pick just one.. I have a list of stalwarts...of course Dylan is great but I tend to think of bands/artists that tend to come around and with whom I associate having a good time...I guess they mean the most to me personally:

Ween
GBV
Luna
Los Amigos Invisibles
Los Autenticos Decadentes
Andres Calamaro (never seen him though.. he avoids the US or can't get  a VISA..not sure which)
Outer Body Llama
