go ahead and do every stupid thing you can imagine^ Yep, one of the classic Southern rock groups.
Welcome To TV Tropes | How To Write An Example | Text Formatting Rules | List Of Shows That Need Summary | TV Tropes Forum | Know The StaffSo I've recently came a bit off my usual routine of "metal, electronic, some middle ground, barely anything else" to obsess over Red House Painters' first self-titled/Rollercoaster. So fucking amazing and heartfelt, every single song.
I really need to listen to less heavy variations of rock more often than I do now.

Like a mother hiding her scars history hides the lies of our unending warsIn the absence of a better thread, I'm going to post this here. Nickelback was played on the radio earlier today, and I came a conclusion. Their songs all sound kind of samey and unimaginative, but to be honest I think they'd be much more listenable and much, much better if they had a different singer. These songs demand a singer who knows how to be melodramatic and exciting. They don't work very well with the whole soporific, sub-grunge and above-all boring delivery Chad Kroeger has at the moment.
It did wonders for Creed.

All types of it. Alt rock, pop rock, punk rock, hard rock, blues rock, all of it.
To start, what are favourite rock albums?
If you don't like a single Frank Ocean song, you have no soul.
