Trent Reznor would be proud.

He's been interviewed about it and said he cried when he heard it because it wasn't his song anymore.

So subjective... While great music is timeless, what makes something the 'greatest' is often linked to specific times, events, or places in our lives.

Most impactful show I ever saw: Nirvana in October 1991, about a month after Nevermind was released and a few weeks after MTV put them in heavy rotation.

Mississippi Nights could hold maybe 800-900 people? and was packed. The crowd was so amped, there was lots of stage diving and crowd surfing and security was pretty aggressive about pulling people out. Cobain got so pissed at security he stopped the show and invited everyone up on stage. After about 20 minutes of chaos, Novoselic got everyone calmed down and they were able to finish the set.

By 1992 they were playing in stadiums and alternative had become mainstream. By 1994 Cobain was gone.

Pork Pie is a great sounding snare drum. Herb, from Primus, uses that. The crack he gets is very nice. Jerry Was A Racecar Driver is a prime example of this.

FunFact: Herb, Tim Alexander, also drummed with The Blue Man Group.

My favorite Primus tune has to be Tommy the Cat.

Sorry but English is the international language of Rock n Roll...so no props to the Reich

Well that's a painfully anglocentric statement.

How about medieval songs in dead languages using a mix of modern and period instruments?

If you're gonna post Primus, how can you leave out Wynonna's Big Brown Beaver?

 

[Taylor57]

How about... No!

Now that's funny

Funny video, for sure. Here is another great Primus video.

I heard these guys for the first time recently on a Chevy Silverado commercial.
I've always been a sucker for a heavy lead guitar...

 

[JedidiahStolzfus]

I liked the old Chevy song
