Post a song that you think rocks
In other words, a fast paced song that you like. I'll start with "Know Your Enemy" by Green Day:

25. The first two
The second two weren't my kind of weird - I like Radiohead, St. Vincent, and Sigur Ros kind of weird more. :hi:

26. Haha, yeah, that's what I was expecting you to say when I thought about what I posted.
The first two were definitely more accessible.

8. I like that tune.
I'm a Green Day fan. I saw them in '95 when Dookie came out and a few times after that. They put on a great show.

11. Yes, this one is kind of like early Green Day, but the new album..
supposedly has variety like American Idiot. They are growing their sound very well.

10. Okay.
You guys are going to get the impression that I really like this album, I think I've posted every song on it at some point. But this is loud, fast, unapologetically political, and I really like it.

20. "Sheer Heart Attack" by Queen, and "Got the Time" by the Joe Jackson Band
Both bands very underrated for rocking.

Queen:

The live versions are sometimes even faster. Here's one from the early 80's, although I've seen some bootlegs from the 70's that were better.
