afterstasis presents an album a day.

[TheCoolGuy]

Pretty cool instrumentation (you were spot on in your description,) but the guy's vocals kind of ruin it for me.

a valid (and common) complaint, but i think it adds to it since most similar 70's bands had equally goofy vocalists.

This band is one of my first responses to people who insist that their style of rock died with the 70's, though that's not to say they're a complete rehash...

The Brian Jonestowne Massacre

[JukeBoxHero]

I'm updating when I can. I'm busying learning music, marching, and for the most part creating for marching drills for my section(also section leader, so I can't jump on here too often).

I remember listening to this album a while back when you brought up the band in one of your setlist threads, awesome stuff.

I disagree, I thought the vocals really went with the sound and helped make it better than what alternatives could have done. Great album, stasis.

Warning - Self Titled
Genre: Progressive Electronic/Art Rock
Year: 1982

Easily one of the strangest electro albums of the 80's, yet it grows on you more and more, assuming you enjoy electro-pop, doom metal, and all things weird and German.
I should mention there are lots of bands with this name (and several of them also had self-titled albums), but these guys are by far the cream of the crop and if it'll loosen some of you metalheads up a bit, Pungent Stench covered the opening track on this album.

Recommended If You Like: Klaus Nomi and Satan, naked with synthesizers.

Low-Quality Sample...
Why Can The Bodies Fly
Magic Castle
The Door, I & II

Cactus World News - Urban Beaches
Genre: Post-Punk/Alternative Rock
Year: 1986

Time for more Irish music that mops the floor with U2, this time actually released by U2's mini-label.
These tunes quite literally sound like rawer, more urgent versions of U2's best songs, but without the obnoxious parts (and without even a fraction of the fanbase).
This album is seriously solid all the way through. Even the bonus songs on the remastered version are great.

Recommended If You Like: U2, The Sound, Echo & The Bunnymen, The Chameleons, Big Country, and The Psychedelic Furs.
