afx Posted December 6, 2015 Author Share Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) Peter Gabriel - Security I think I own every album released by PG and its hard to pick a favorite but this one might be it. If all you know of PG is his Sledgehammer era you are missing out on his best stuff. If you like drums and percussions as much as I do you will love this album. Play it loud this song rocks.

MonoPed Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) Heard Threshold the first time a couple years ago, and had no idea they have put out as many albums as they have. Had a couple different singers and other lineup changes, but a solid band for sure. Edited December 6, 2015 by MonoPed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wku88 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) After 35 years, yeah, it's obscure. BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH fine album though. Punk meets Jazz and killer lyrics. Edited December 7, 2015 by wku88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Gabriel is awesome, particularly his earlier albums. He has had a hit or two on mainstream radio so may not count as obscure, but Gotye sounds amazingly similar to Peter Gabriel. The first time I heard him I thought it was a new Peter Gabriel song. He also has some very creative videos.

Dave Ambrose Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I've liked Weather Report for a long time, but I'd never heard this album. And yes, the title really is This is This.What can I say? It's jazz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great album, I have it on 10" vinyl. I really like Volume 4 too. A few of my favorites from this album.

peteski Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 ...and now for something completely different... Sometimes when I'm in the mood (while in my workshop, or doing stuff on the computer, or just relaxin') I put on some of the early works of Jean Michael Jarre. It is all good. Albums like Oxygene, Equinoxe, or Magnetic Fields. I like a bunch of his later stuff too, but the early albums are my favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draggon Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) Some J-Pop/Rock/Metal. I'd love to be in Japan to see these two bands live. Edited January 4, 2016 by Draggon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zarana-X Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I found out about Band-Maid a few months ago. Pretty rockin' I like "Don't Let Me Down" a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_G Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 A bit more obscure, The Beat Farmers Blue Chevrolet off of their Van Go album (also on their best of album) I saw them play in Phoenix in the early '80s when they were called the Snugglebunnies, then several years later in Eugene- during their break I went up to Country Dick who was getting a beer at the bar and mentioned being at the Snugglebunnies gig and he called the other band members over and introduced me to them saying "this guy remembers the Snugglebunnies!" I didn't tell him I had snuck into the show carrying an empty guitar case, LOL I play a couple of their songs on guitar- Lonesome Hound, and Goldmine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draggon Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I found out about Band-Maid a few months ago. Pretty rockin' I like "Don't Let Me Down" a lot. Totally agreed, Jason. "Real Existence" too. I'm trying to like Fate Gear but the songs I've heard by them don't have the melody that Band-Maid does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draggon Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Sexual Telepathy is great. Sounds a bit like an acoustic Fleetwood Mac, and reminds me of some band I liked years ago. Cant remember who it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTalmage Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I recently discovered 3 albums by a short lived Australian horror-psychobilly band called Zombie Ghost Train... really catchy stuff.. First album, Monster Formal Wear Followed by Glad Rags & Body Bags And their final album, Dealing The Death Card... before the singer went on to pursue his solo honky-tonk career...
