80's
So I got to the 80's site and got a 90's problem --> some kind of server video errror. BTW, what do we call the 00's? Easy enough to type, but can't really say. "21st Century" started sounding lame sometime into mid January 2000, and double-ott's makes you sound like a hunter...Seems like something would have caught on, halfway through the decade already.
Yeah, I liked the rota-scope animation on "Take-On-Me"...though I always think of Butthead saying "Like is that dude yodeling or something?"
I actually liked the ultimate development of the lead guitar lick that went on in the late 80's and died sometime in the early 90's. Unfortunately, it seems to me that after hearing Steve Vai, Joe Satriani and Yngwe Malmsteen, that someone in Seattle said "f-this, it's too difficult.. I can't play this. Tried for months and still can't do it. Let's just turn up the distortion and vary the chords twice a song."
I listened to some heavy stuff on Sirius, supposed to be rock, I guess, and the rhythm all sounds like grunge, only for some reason the "vocalists" all started shouting. I mean really shouting. Jeez, I'd rather listen to Eminem than these guys.
Gimme Blues.
