Thought it would be interesting to see what the green enthusiasts around here prefer to listen to after some of that devil's lettuce.
Personally I enjoy the following
Van Halen- Of course, no musical list would be complete without the boys, plus knowing all the words the whatever song comes up on the random play is a huge bonus
Yes- Very technical and layered, you can really dive into their music and zone out
Steely Dan- Along the same lines as Yes, but jazzier and less fantastic than the prior, but the sheer musicianship and talent makes for a great listen
New York Dolls/Early Punk bands- New York Dolls is just really fun music, and it is fun to listen and realize that this weird, off-kilter band is actually one of the most influential bands ever. Early Punk such as The Damned, Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers, Stiv Bators, etc. etc.
Steve Vai- (Flex-able) When it comes to instrumentals I have always like Vai, but not as much for his amazing guitar repertoire but for his first album flex-able which I think is a work of genius, I wish Vai would have stayed that creative
David Lee Roth- Just pick a solo album and sit back, whether it is your favorite DLR album or not a quick listen will put you in a great mood
Eagles Of Death Metal- A great 'newer' band, founded by Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age/ Kyuss) EODM has old school flair mixed with newer sounds that makes up a great sound, Homme is awesome musically considering everything he touches ends up being successful, and being a part of one of the biggest stoner bands ever in Kyuss
Rap- Yes I like rap, I doubt many others around here like rap/hip-hop but throw on some NWA, Snoop Dogg, or even newer rap such as UGK, Jay-Z, or Lupe Fiasco. No Lil Wayne for me though
I'll stop here, even though I know I will probably think of 100 things I missed, but fuck it.
