So I bought this album by a band named Wolfmother on a lark, and right now I am cranking Where Eagles Have Been, and I feel like I am 13 years old again listening to Yes-Relayer on the cassette player in my bedroom while reading Lord Foul’s Bane by Stephen R. Donaldson.

I guess consider this an open thread, but I am just shocked this is a band from the late 2000’s. Holy loads of flashbacks, batman.

    Wolfmother is excellent. My boss listens to them on a daily basis. They are from Australia or New Zealand if I’m not mistaken.

    Holy loads of flashbacks, batman.

    For more flashback action, try out the Raconteurs, which features Jack White of White Stripes fame. I haven’t heard the new one yet, but the first, “Broken Boy Soldiers”, is very Zeppelin-esque in places.

    But it ain’t no “Relayer” …. 8-)

    The new Raconteurs is OUTSTANDING. The song Rich Kid’s Blues sounds almost Who-like.

    The new Black Crowes continues their sound that hasn’t changed much at all in 20 years.

    The new Black Keys is a real departure from their previous albums. I can’t figure out if I love or hate it. Having DJ Danger Mouse produce a classic blues rock band was certainly daring.

    Wolfmother is just scratching the surface. (And I gotta be frank, while they’re fun enough, I don’t think of them as much as I do other bands — then again I am employed to be a music geek, at least in part.) Offhand I’d recommend:

    FarFlung
    Bardo Pond
    Kinski
    The Black Angels
    Mammatus
    UFOMammut

    And believe me there’s more. A LOT more. Don’t get me started if you don’t want me to!

    Yeah, agreed on Black Mountain, definitely. Early Comets on Fire. (Stepping away a bit: Six Organs of Admittance. Ilyas Ahmed. Alela Diane. Yellow6.) Monster Magnet (remember them?). I’m free-skying at this point, point is that psych/spacerock/prog all of sorts never died, it just transmogrified into different paths. Everyone should just come to Terrastock in June.

    If you want some flashbacks, that new Raconteurs album is definitely the ticket. White can crunch with any 70s guitar hero, and they threw a LOT of organ in there this time—plenty of Triumph and Styx* moments.

    *And I mean that in a good way, even if you can’t imagine it.

    If you haven’t heard it, John, the first Rac album (“Broken Boy Soldiers”) is probably my favorite album from the last ten years.

    Highly recommended. And the new one (“Consolers of the Lonely”) is strong too. In fact, I promised a review…better get on that.

    Oh. My. God.

    Is there any question that atheists are a second class citizen in this country? I served 20 years in the military. I have to admit that the only time I ever faced discrimination as an atheist is a couple of times where a Chaplain prayed in Jesus’ name at an invocation I was forced to attend.

    No one ever told me that I was unfit to serve just because I was an atheist until today.(There were many other reasons for my unfitness, but that is another couple of stories).

    I served my country because I love America and the ideals upon which it was founded. Once it becomes “Christian America uber alles”, then we’re in deep shit. I’ll fight for America against people that fly planes into our buildings. I wont fight for Jesus against some twisted fucks twisting the words of the Prophet Mohammed.

    Its all assinine superstition to me.

    I can’t say I’m surprised, but that’s because I live in a state (considered a swing state by many) that’s actively trying to put creationism in the classroom. And no, it’s not one in the middle of the country either.

    Apologies if someone’s posted this before but this infuriates the fuck out of me.

    (CNN) — The U.S. military is promising action to address conditions in a barracks at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, after a soldier’s father posted images on YouTube showing a building that he said “should be condemned.”

    Paint — which Frawley said is lead-based — is chipping. Ceiling tiles are missing. A broken drain pipe allows sewer gas into the building, while another one has tissues stuffed into it in an apparent effort to stop the gas from coming in.

    Photos from the communal bathroom show some of the most disgusting images. In one, a soldier stands in a sink to avoid what Frawley describes as 3 inches of sewage water that filled the floor when toilets overflowed.

    Is there anything the Bush administration HASN’T lowered the bar on?

    “We’re up to our armpits in human shit, you moron!”

    So, Jamey, paying artists for their work today, and having one such creation elicit nostalgic feelings of books read and music enjoyed 30 years ago makes John (and, obviously, anyone like him) a dork. A ginormous one at that, apparently.

    Man, if we could only be as cool as you. Tell us — what hipper-than-thou shit were you into back in ’78? It will only make us feel dorkier to find out, I know, but we’re used to it.

    Yep, Buck, that is most definitely bullshit. “Oxyhydrogen” or Brown’s gas, or whatever the fuck they want to call it is just hydrogen/oxygen gas combined. You can make it from hydrolyzing water with electricity, but there’s no magic way to it, you only get out the energy you put in (actually less, unless you’re planning on violating the laws of thermodynamics). If you did happen to make it oxyhydrogen, you would most likely blow your ass up.

    Amusingly, it is actually possible to run an old diesel engine on water (allegedly, maybe we need to get mythbusters to try it..). Supposedly, when the engine is good and hot you can replace the diesel with water, and the engine can run for up to an hour. The water reacts with the iron in the engine, causing it to oxidize (rust) and releasing heat, turning the water to steam to power the pistons. At the end of that time, your engine will be a large chunk or rust, never to run again. I doubt this would work with a newer engine, but it’s an old myth that’s at least theoretically possible (unlike the magical perpetual water engine, which is just bullshit).

    But don’t feel too bad about getting suckered by this website, an Indian conman managed to get an news article into the scientific journal Nature touting a “tea” he could brew from certain herbs and grasses that would power a gasoline engine. Turned out he just had a hidden fuel tank he utilized to make it appear the engine ran with his special elixir. And don’t get me started on the whole “cold fusion” fiasco. Energy-related stuff happens to bring out the cons, liars, cheats and idiots; just look at our current president (and vice-president).

    Woo. It’s not just a blog, it’s a wayback machine! Yes was my first concert, 1974 age 15. Relayer was about when Yes started to lose me, although it was an improvement on Tales from Topographic Oceans– it was later, right? Bought Close to the Edge a few years ago, listened twice and gave it away. Sometimes you can’t go home again.
    I will check out some of the bands named above; I have begun to listen to the local college radio stations again after a long hiatus. There seems to have developed a nice diversity of styles, many echoing the 60’s and 70’s. Nice change from every band sounding like Creed or the latest angst-riddled screamer. (To plagiarize Dave Barry; what a great name for a band!)

    Cole’s favorite neocon tells it like it really was:

    He argued that former secretary of state Colin Powell and his deputy, Richard Armitage, were the ones who failed to challenge the logic of going to war — not him. He suggested that Powell, Armitage, Franks, former Iraq viceroy Jerry Bremer and even Feith’s old boss, Donald Rumsfeld, should be blamed for the postwar chaos in Iraq — not him. He blamed then-National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice for the way she operated (“fundamental differences were essentially papered over rather than resolved”). He accused the CIA of “improper” and unprofessional behavior. And he implicitly blamed President Bush for not cracking down on insubordinate behavior at the State Department. Yet at the same time, Feith told the CSIS crowd that he disapproved of the “snide and shallow self-justification typical in memoirs of former officials,” or what Feith cleverly called the ” ‘I-was-surrounded-by-idiots’ school of memoir writing.” Feith pointed out that he supported his account with 140 pages of notes and documents. And yet, in his hour-long panel discussion, Feith seemed to be of the impression that he had, in fact, been surrounded by idiots.”

    And he was the one in the middle.

    I am impressed that Mr. Cole was listening to “Relayer” if he is at all close to my age. Even KSHE had restricted their Yes playlist to “Roundabout”, “I See All Good People”, “Owner of A Lonely Heart”, and “Leave It” by 1985.

    Check out Crack the Sky. This album is from 1975 and is still a fantastic listen.

    I definitely second that recommendation. I listened to my old LP copy of “Safety in Numbers” not long ago. I had forgotten how good it was. “Safety in Numbers” and “Animal Notes” are available as a “two-fer” now, I just ordered my copy.

    BTW, Crack The Sky is still around and performing. They are headlining the Rites of Spring Festival (ROSFest) in Philadelphia next Sunday.

    Here’s some geek for ya:
    I had a language revalation at 12 or 13 while reading Lord Foul’s Bane.
    Vitriol! The evil eyles subteranean sorcers all had these staffs that flung vitriol. I expereinced some cognative dissonance as I tried to figure out the usefullness of a magic staff that said insulting things about your enemies. I realized from context that vitriol had to also be something else.
    I looked it up and was then puzzled as to why you would want some bugger at the point of your wedge flinging acid at your enemies right before you charged them – aren’t you going to end up wearing it too?

    and I feel like I am 13 years old again listening to Yes-Relayer on the cassette player in my bedroom while reading Lord Foul’s Bane by Stephen R. Donaldson.

    How the fuck were you ever a Republican?

    My people! You’re here! ;-)

    13 years old and reading LORD FOUL’S BANE? Good Lord, man, you’re MY age. Congrats.

    I never went much for Yes-Relayer, though.
