I've got Mars by Holst which I'd have thought you like, what with it being the first heavy metal piece and all that. Do you have an extensive dub section?

Daweii Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 California by Mr. Bungle Mr. Bungle were one of the most extreme bands signed to a major label (Warner Bros.) until their break up in 2004. 'California' is the bands final and most tame release, but it's still pretty out there as far as mainstream records go. This record tackles genres such as Surf Rock, Folk, Lounge, Jazz and Thrash Metal during its 44 minute run time, it's quite a refreshing and unique album to spin to say the least. Also if anyone wants one hell of a musical ride they should seek out Mr. Bungle's debut record self-titled 'Mr. Bungle', it's a record that drives head on into Ska, Jazz Fusion, Funk, Carnival Music, Heavy Metal and Death Metal often within the confines of a single song. I love these guys even though they won't be to the taste of most, they are unique if nothing else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me your address and I shall start hiking asap. If you provide the tea and cakes and I'll provide the road kill. I'll take you back to your childhood with a bit of Budgie and Rainbow.

You should check out "Sunflower" (1970) "Surfs Up" (1971) "Carl & The Passions - So Tough" (1972) "Holland" (1973) Easily my favourite Beach Boys period, and criminally overlooked. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seconded. It could be argued that Pet Sounds was merely a transitional album between their early surf/cars pop music and this era - progressive BBs, for want of a better term. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely this, as periods go many bands would struggle to match this period. No doubt Pets and Smiley Smile get the plaudits but wow thats a quality stretch.

mjmooney Posted July 20, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted July 20, 2017 Although tbf, while those albums have their high spots, they are all a bit patchy. Crying out for a judicious compilation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's that controversial to say 'Forever Changes' batters any BB album out the park, but you should be getting a pretty glorious comp out of the BB's back cat, for sure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xann Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Didn't like it first time I heard it, but it's a grower. Just last week I was chatting with someone that finally 'got it' after 30 years of owning it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 You are hard pressed to find a better run of albums from Black Sabbath 1970- Sabotage 1975. Fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
