That's what it reminded me of

I'd recommend checking out Charlie Parr and The Lowest Pair

Okay, but honing your craft by playing it in front of an audience or having a second opinion of a producer are both invaluable things that many self-produced artists don't have nowadays, which can and do produce mediocre results. You said that there is more good music nowadays, and I don't really agree with that statement. There is more music, but I wouldn't say that there is more "good" music, if anything I would say there is about the same amount of "good" music, with a LOT more mediocre stuff to wade through to find the "good" stuff.

Right, but you're making it sound like you need to record music to make it, when tons of artists honed their craft by playing music live for years before they recorded anything.

>my point is that no great artists now are being held back by the inaccessability of making music

I'm going to assume you mean recording music and having it widely available to the general public, because nothing was holding anyone back from making music.

Eh, that's debatable. There's something to be said about having a producer who will tell you to work on something or change a part in a song.

Stay classy

Hell yeah man, Motorhead kicks ass!

Every time I've had Arby's it's been good, so yeah, we can agree to disagree. But yeah, Dio kicks ass (I was lucky enough to see him perform with Heaven & Hell in 2007), and I'm about 6 beers deep myself. Cheers.

Sounds like your Arby's might just be shitty, every Arby's I've ever been to has had pretty loaded sandwiches.

Well, you sound like a jackass who can't handle the fact that some people like different things than you.

Arby's kicks ass

It doesn't help that search engines are garbage nowadays.

But they're still championships, so they should still count.

Maybe Joey Shithead from the punk band DOA

Yep, this is from wikipedia

>Hawkins had originally intended to record "I Put a Spell on You" as "a refined love song, a blues ballad". However, the producer Arnold Maxin "brought in ribs and chicken and got everybody drunk, and we came out with this weird version ... I don't even remember making the record. Before, I was just a normal blues singer. I was just Jay Hawkins. It all sort of just fell in place. I found out I could do more destroying a song and screaming it to death."

And after that song became a hit, he really played into the image, he dressed in a cape, wore tusks in his nose, and rose out of a coffin during live performances

Well this is sad news

Rest in Peace D.H.
