Bands you can ONLY enjoy at high volume - Page 2

Their cover of DV 69 was something unexpected and not horrible, though. I didn't say they were horrible, just not worthy of the hype.

Actually DV 69 is one of the few songs that really needs to be cranked right up in order to hear it 'properly', IMO.

Bad Moon must be at 11 at all times, DV 69 needs to go 20+

they were just telling me how they're not nyc's loudest band and that thats ridiculous.

and no, there is no hype. theyre just a misunderstood band simply because they like the chain too much.

Dinosaur Jr.

Curve

Bleach

Daisy Chainsaw

Go!

StevOK · 05.27.2008, 05:53 PM

Fuck yeah, JSBE.

Pretty much anything worth listening to is made better at high volume.

Pax Americana · 05.27.2008, 08:19 PM

Shellac. I love listening to Shellac with the stereo cranked up all the way.

Minor Threat and Fugazi too.

Oh and Mclusky.

steve newman · 05.27.2008, 08:45 PM

hmmm... hammerhead, shellac, bad religion, just about anything with loud guitars. but i really enjoy elliot smith really loud too.

Since I don't have neighbours and I'm living by myself, I'm allowed to blast stuff at really high volume. Yesterday I particularly enjoyed nearly fucking up my speakers while I had ''Statues'' (what a song!) by Husker Du on really loud, as well as ''Sleeper Hold'' by No Age. Times New Viking are also great at very loud volume.

aw, i've not heard 'em but this seems to be adding up to a whole lot of black-rebel-motorcycle-club to me

oh yeah, loud bands

method man / redman specifically "da rockwilder" is face meltingly good loud, the epitome though has to be electric by the cult which really does ONLY make sense loud. Quiet ther's just no point but once the minimum volume threshold has been attained it's as though the universe clicks into a finer and more pleasing style of nonsense where the only fitting response to a line like "i'm a b five-two baby way up in the sky" is "yeah me too" as you duck-walk to the jelly bar and down forty five shots off the lithesome stomach of the stripper in the clown mask.

gustav holst. iggy and the stooges. and so forth

batreleaser · 05.28.2008, 07:23 AM

Lightning bolt, Discordance Axis, Merzow, Masonna, Immortal, early Obituary, Black Flag, Neurosis, Godflesh, a shit load more. i tend to always listen to music loud i think.

There isn't one, I just happen to live inbetween two houses that have been empty for a while. And even when they were inhabited nobody cared, it's not like I have time to stay indoors blasting music all the time, anyway.

I don't really enjoy listening to any music really loud, I tend to notice a lot more things at lower volume.
