My overwhelming urge is to just go with what C. Adolescent said, but at least your trying, so i'll try to help. Have you listened to Tom Waits? Bone Machine is a good album. Have you ever listened to that? It's a good start.

i know, i know. Im still quite the music noob, which is why i came here.
I downloaded Hot Rats already, and if my itunes wasn't being retarded i'd listen to it now.
when i said that it wasn't because i thought it was bad, it was just that its very different then a lot of the stuff i listen too, so I'm adjusting to it.

That's fair. At least your going through that phase, how old are you anyhow, 15?

Sparky · 02-26-2007, 06:25 PM

oh, your old for a freshman, but a good time to be getting into these bands. Ahead of me, I was still in my punk rock phase as a freshman.
