Thread about rock music =D

[_.Mevs]

Well, I'm not so much into new music xd 

But I love music from the 50s - 90s rock (cough cough, cold war)

I like history (I'm not a specialist but, I like it, mostly Vietnam war)

The fact I like history ended up making me find some music, and even though military marches are amazing, what caught me were the rock music produced in the Vietnam War

Some that I recommend:

1 - The Breakup Song (my personal favorite)

2 - Fortunate Son (a classic)

3 - Green River 

4 - Johnny B. Goode (this music is in back to the future, is amazing)

5 - Let It Be 

If you have more recommendations, feel free to post them here!

It doesn't need to be from the Vietnam war, it can be any rock music you like =D

Hmmm.. I don't have much standalone songs, but I can talk about bands.

The ones I listen to the most are Pink Floyd and Queen, with PF being the one I listen to the most.
I have 3 of their albums, The Dark Side of the Moon (Both on CD and vinyl, the vinyl comes with cool posters!!), The Wall, which I got as a gift, and Animals (one of the best albums I've ever heard). I plan on getting Meddle next.

There's something about PF that really struck my chords... Dark Side especially, despite the fact that the album talks about existing, and other parts of life it's extremely relaxing, to me at least. I love the guitar bends on "Breathe (In the Air)", the psychedelic sound of "Any Colour You Like" (my favorite track on the album) and the sadness of "Brain Damage/Eclipse".
The Wall is an album that I listened to a lot as well, especially when I felt bad. There was some comfort in listening to "One of My Turns", which is my favorite track on The Wall. I did sometimes feel like building a wall around myself, to protect myself from the harsh feelings I sometimes felt, but it's not worth it, don't do that. and of course, who can forget about Another Brick in the Wall Part 2? xddd
Animals, while I don't see it as personal as Dark Side and The Wall, is still amazing. The intro to "Dogs" melted my ears from how good it sounds. The dreamlike guitar chords with some synths is the perfect sound for me. I listened to "Dogs" a lot last year, and I like listening to it during rainy weather, but the type of rainy weather where the sun still shines through. Although, I do prefer the earlier version of "Dogs", called "You've Got To Be Crazy", to the final version.

Fun fact, I actually saw Nick Mason (Pink Floyd's drummer) in June!! It was such an amazing concert, I wish I could go there again...

As for Queen, I listened to them mostly at the end of 2018. I wasn't really a huge super fan of the like I am with Pink Floyd now. I guess PF just Speak(s) to Me more xddd
Queen does make me feel nostalgic for that year, it was so much better back then.. :(

Queen is amazing! In my house, my family always play it's music (they're playing Radio Ga Ga right now xd), and i know Pink Floyd, but... I never listened to it, i'll give a chance today! I'll tell what i think of it later!

Oh, i don't really have any albums xd

Mostly because i don't collect it, but tbh, i always had interest into it, since we have a vinyl player and a few vinyl songs, here we have CDs of some stuff and the person that makes me like rock is my father, he's a bass player in a cover band! Most songs i know were songs he played, so, i think that maybe he has some albums, i'll ask him if he does xd

It got my interest tbh, i love stuff that talk about life, mostly when they're relaxing, it get me into a peace of mind that just make my day, i'll look into it!

The part of the guitar got my interest, i really love music with a good guitar playing, it absolutely makes the music way more magical

A personal recommendation: Boston - Peace Of Mind

That's amazing! I never went to a concert of a famous band, only the ones of my father's band, honestly, it's amazing to listen in the radio and on the music player, but when you listen to it personally... It's very breath-taking, it's another level, it just take my adrenaline to 1000 xd
