ShredAstaire Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 hahaha i just looked them up that is pretty interesting to say the least. great lyrics haha nice suggestion man Neil is a kickass lyricist...most of his lyrics make no sense but they flow nicely and come together really well. He uses random references too... If you can see Clutch live, you shouldn't miss it. They are my fav live band ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silenced Fred Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 What is alternative? Didn't really think of the Black Keys as alternative, but they get my vote I'm just waiting for the "goddamnit you whipped snappers, no good music got made after 1974!!!!" group to chime in. Always make me giggle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Searcy Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I'm just waiting for the "goddamnit you whipped snappers, no good music got made after 1974!!!!" group to chime in. Always make me giggle Any one who says that is lazy and a really crappy music fan. Just like the ones who preach " No good music before (insert year they started liking music)" I have to admit I don't really know what Alternative music is the4se days. I'm digging Them Crooked Vultures these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShredAstaire Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Yea...Alternative doesn't mean too much anymore...I thought it stopped being used in the late 90's but i guess I was wrong! :) Alternative just meant not classic rock back then....or like new rock...very wide spectrum of bands fit into Alternative...

barton8367 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 if ur talking proper alternative stuff then i would say you can beat biffy clyro at the moment! my favorite band of the last three or four years though has to be the courteeners, liam fray is a genius songwriter and immense front man. ive seen them live 4 or 5 times now and are always great!! nice guitars on display too, epiphone riviera, gretch white falcon and recently ive seen liam fray playing a es355 and 137 classic! great band, great tunes and great image!
