Tool finally released another album. Great imo.
Man, I am not sure on all the 2019 releases I have liked so far. New Korn was pretty decent. I liked the 2019 tracks from Motley Crue on The Dirt Soundtrack. Papa Roach's January 2019 cd was pretty good. Duff McKagan's Tenderness cd wasn't bad but a little to slow for me to really get into.
Sturgill Simpson released another album. I bought the cd just to have the hard copy. I downloaded it on my Spotify to have it readily available.
I’ve watched Sturgill change on every album he puts out. It pisses off a lot of the people that liked him for whatever particular album caught their ear. I told a good music friend a long time ago that I saw Sturgill as more of an artist than simply a really good musician. Yes I know semantics can argue a musician is by default an artist but my statement makes sense to me.
He refuses to be pigeonholed. He does come across a little angsty/angry but I understand why he does. Doesn’t matter to me. I’ve been thrilled with his progression. One article I read said he had once promised his wife he’d do an album of bluegrass classics that she picks out and that would not surprise me one bit.
I stated long ago I thought Sturgill is a generational artist. I still believe that. If you have Netflix check out his Sound and Fury anime. This newest cd jumps around from one style to the next and I loved every one of them.
Here’s a trailer for the Netflix special. Check it out with an open mind. It certainly won’t receive a single vote on CMA night.
Wait, Sturgil Simpson is doing anime? Or was he just responsible for getting this particular one over to the States?
Aye matey. Of course he didn’t actually do the anime. But it was his project. I’ve never actually watched anime. A lot of folks are comparing this to that old late night show Heavy Metal which I certainly do remember.
I did pick up that Motley Crue soundtrack and liked it as well.
You just rock a little harder than I do amigo. Although I love this new Tool album. Of course there’s always haters on everyone and I think they certainly could have put this out before now but I know Maynard and the rest have done all their projects as well. I’m just going to enjoy it.
I’ve only watched the Sturgill Sound and Fury movie twice now but will watch again when I get the time.
IMO, the beauty of music is always held within the 'eye of the beholder'....regardless whether something fits or doesn't fit my ear, like religion, it's simply off limits to bash someone else for their 'faith in taste'....that's why this thread is pure for everyone....
and yeah, the new TOOL release is pretty dayum good....if I had to 'coin it', I'd say it's a continuation of 10K days with plenty of Lateralus sprinkled in along the way....most of the tunes are in 7/4 time....it's amazingly difficult to play
the reason for the extended delay was over legal issues that aren't worth rehashing....
I think I posted this when it was released.....it's easily their best work and song on this one....
another musical genius that never got enough credit is Zappa....I listened to these today as well...

...and as a reminder that what we now call 'Halloween' actually derives from the phrase: "All Hallow's Eve", meaning the evening before we celebrate the actual Holiday: All Saints Day, every November 1st, where we remember and honor those individuals who have been recognized as leading such exemplary lives of faith, or having previously not done so, converted and became great examples of redemption in faith (see: St. Augustine of Hippo) , that they are lifted above as examples of how we all might strive to live and reconcile ourselves as human beings, with each other and with our Creator:
:) Happy All Saints Day, ya'll:
Artist: Harry Belafonte
Album: Belafonte at Carnegie Hall
Song: "The Marching Saints (When The Saints Go Marching In)"
Conductor – Robert Corman (Robert DeCormier)
October 1959 RCA Victor Records
Quote:St. Augustine of Hippo is the patron of brewers because of his conversion from a former life of loose living, which included parties, entertainment, and worldly ambitions. His complete turnaround and conversion has been an inspiration to many who struggle with a particular vice or habit they long to break.
