Marty DiBergi: "This tasteless cover is a good indication of the lack of musical invention within. The musical growth of this band cannot even be charted. They are treading water in a sea of retarded sexuality and bad poetry." Nigel Tufnel: That's ju...
I still think the best metal bands have a blues feel. The first Black Sabbath album is kind of a bludgeoning of blues. Deep Purple also started out as a blues band.
I was such a massive fan of all the '60s pop bands, but if I had to single out one band, it would definitely be The Beatles.
I'm in a rock band - I don't have a day job! I am spoiled... a lot.
I wish I could tell you me and my rock band were traveling around, strung out. No, we were a family band. Straight Partridge Family.
My faith plays a big part in who I am: a Christian guy playing pop-rock music. I'm in a pop-rock band, not a Christian band.
I love music, and I love drumlines. I like school bands a lot. There's nothing wrong with cheerleading, but I'd rather be a band geek. It's a little more interesting.
If you are a pop band, don't say you're a metal band. Poison and Warrant were about as metal as the Backstreet Boys.
I want to talk about my band, you know what I mean? I don't want to talk about other bands.
I've learned that you can call it a band, but unless everyone is contributing, it's not, really. It's pretending that it's a band.
I was trying to take the band in a direction that I thought was appropriate, and Roth was trying to take the band in more of a Las Vegas direction. And there he is.
Now, the instrumentation in the jazz band and the jazz dance band has gone through many evolutions. For instance, in the 'twenties the tradition was two or three saxophones.
Before moving to Pennsylvania in 1999, I played bass in a newsroom rock band in South Florida for several years.
As a result, I had to get my own playground which was my band Colours. This band lasted for about eight years and then the air was out of it and it was time to finish.
I was extreme... from skateboarder to hip-hopper to rave child to lead singer of a rock band - I did it all, and all at the same time.
It's no longer unusual for real avant-garde composers to have been in a band, and for bands to be interested in a wide range of music. Look at how artists like Aphex Twin are influenced by Nancarrow and Stockhausen.
I know that there are a lot of sort of silly things that one thinks as a music listener about bands. I am a fan of many bands.
A lot of bands have the enthusiasm kicked out of them by playing really dreary pub venues that just churn bands through.
Gym Class is a band I am more directly involved with than any other band except for Fall Out Boy.
What society judged was not the severity of the disease but the social acceptability of the individuals affected with it…
If you take a band like Nirvana, their biggest hits are structurally the same as even a hair metal band's biggest hits. The structure's not different - the attitude was different. Except it really wasn't. It seemed a little more human.
