32. Black Mountain - In the Future (2008)
Tyrants! Wucan! Veel mooier en vetter wordt het nie mense. Tyrants vooral! Hoe die na het 1e stuk stilvalt en superspannend en leeg doorgaat, die opbouw en die goddelijke zang en die gitaren en die climax och wa mooi.
33. Black Mountain - Wilderness Heart (2010)
Eén van de mooiste locaties waar ik ooit een band zag was na deze plaat op Incubate, in een natuurtheater in de Oisterwijkse bossen. Favo's hier: bijna alles ;) maar vooral Rollercoaster.
34. Black Mountain - IV (2016)
Mothers of the Sun! Iconischer jaren 70 kun je het bijna niet hebben. Verder vind ik dit niet zo'n sterke plaat als de vorigen, al is ook Space to Bakersfield top.
35. Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath (1970)
We zijn aanbeland bij de heiligen der heiligen (occult-wise dan he). De eerst 4 albums zijn de zaden waaruit zoveel verschillende machtige zwarte bloemen zijn gaan bloeien. All Hail Sabbath! (met een cameo van kat Koetje)
36. Black Sabbath - Vol 4 (1972)
Super Tonto!
Ruenas de Confucion!
Ciego por la Nieve!
Yup, ik heb blijkbaar een Zuid-Amerikaanse uitgave.
37. Der Blutharsch - What Makes You Pray (2017)
Donker en duister. Door de controverse (wist ik niet toen ik 'm van mijn schatje kreeg, zij ook niet. De platenzaak-dude tipte 't hmmm) vooral zitten lezen over andere tegen fascisme aanschurkende bands.
38. Bohren & Der Club Of Gore - Dolores (2008)
Prachtig hoe deze Duitsers zó leeg en spaarzaam spelen en daar zóveel moois mee doen.
39. Boney M - Nightflight to Venus (1978)
Rare band, rare plaat. Sure, het gros is catchy discopop, maar er gebeurt in elk nummer toch wel iets geks, tofs of subtiels. Eindigen met een Neil Young cover ook. Die Frankie Farian was me d'r inne, of nie dan Milli Vanilli.
40. Bongripper - Satan Worshipping Doom (2010)
Dikke vette doom die ongeveer net zo dik en vet is als de hoes lelijk. Riff na riff is raak. Was overweldigend live op Roadburn, al zagen ze er net wat te fris uit voor true satanisten bejja
41. Boogieman - Triple Six Blues (2003)
Toen stonerrock nog een dingetje was. Dit is de uptempo variant die wel lekker weghapt hoor. Zin om met een fles bier in een donker zaaltje te staan, met 50 andere gasten die ook van onbekende kutbandjes houden
42. Boris - Pink (2005)
Let’s continue this thread in English, because why not. Started playing all my records few years back and gave up after 71. Posting those 71 first and then I’ll carry on. So…
I love bands like Boris, who are all over the place and do whatever they like. Sure, there’s albums I don’t like at all, but Pink is awesome: #shoegaze, #garagenoiserock, #doom, #stoner and more. Yeah!
43. Jacques Brel - De 24 Grootste Successen
What an intense guy this must have been. I can feel his deliverance to the bone. He’s definitely more heavy than a lot of guitar bands
45. James Brown - This Is James Brown (1968)
Compilation from 1968, including Licking Stick, Good Good Lovin’ en Say It Loud I’m Black & I’m Proud
46. The Byrds - Greatest Hits
Supposedly a great band in history, so bought it for a few euros. Well, apart from Eight Miles High I think this is really boring.
47. Various Artists - 25 Jaar Bullit (2004)
Bullit in Eindhoven was where me and my metalbuddy Karel went to in the 80’s for our metalalbums, by bike for 15 km.
When he bought Bonded by Blood, I chose Master of Puppets, so we could tape it for each other right away when we got back.
19 years ago Bullit was there for 25 years and this record was to celebrate with (at the time)(sort of) Eindhoven’s finest.
48. Camera - Remember I Was Carbon Dioxide (2014)
Playing kraut is easy, but playing good kraut is more of a challenge. This one’s awesome and inspired
(Which cannot be said of the liveshow I saw, one of the most uninspired shows I ‘ve ever seen)
49. Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan - Hawk (2010)
Been fortunate to be able to see Lanegan 6 or 7 times, and I was of course mesmerized by his voice everytime. From his show with Isobel Campbell I mostly remember that she forgot her first lines in a song, gestured to the band to stop and saved it in a very charming way. Heck, Lanegan even smiled!
50. Candlemass - Ancient Dreams (1988)
‘Darkness has faaaahaallen…
In Paradaaaaaiiiaaase!’
Still great to sing along after all these years. Riffs are huge!
51. Johnny Cash - At San Quentin (1969)
Never been much of a Cash fan or a country fan in general* but the vibe on this record is electric!
https://album.link/nl/i/824812884
* The Harrow & The Harvest by Gillian Welch is one of the most beautiful records ever tho
52. Carpenters - The Singles 1969 - 1973 (1973)
I guess we’ve reached the sweetest spot in my collection. What a voice and how easy and smooth does her singing sound. Simply astonishing.
53. Carpenters - Now & Then (1973)
2 albums Carpenters is a bit too much. The sleeve is excellent tho #HahaNo
54. Cathedral - The Guessing Game (2010)
Good albumtitle, cause I’m still not sure whether putting sixties vibes into your #stonerdoom works. It does work in Funeral of Dreams tho, that’s a killersong
55. Cave - Neverendless (2011)
Within minutes of hearing Cave for the first time they were among my favorite bands.
56. Cave - Threace (2013)
Within minutes after hearing Cave for the first time they were among my favorite bands.
I love repetition!
57. Cellvoice - One (1998)
Relaxed breakbeat / triphop / electro
58. Circle - Taantumus (2001)
When Circle takes the kraut-road they’re utterly brilliant.
59. Circle - Zopalki (1996)
Another krautclassic from these weird Finnish bunch. (Weird ánd Finnish seems redundant, cause a lot of freaky and weird music comes from there)
10 track album
60. London Symphony Orchestra - Classic Rock (1978)
Didn’t have very high expectations of this one, and this turned out right. Only Whole Lotta Love was okay, with a sort of original take. The rest: nice to hum along…
61. Coldcut - Sound Mirrors (2006)
The album art is way better than the music.
62. Comets on Fire - Avatar (2006)
Freakrockin’ psychedelic space at the highest level. Awesome!
#BlackCrowesOnGoodAcid
63. Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - Déjà Vu (1970)
I discovered’ this one pretty late (like 10 years ago) but it got a special place in my heart very quickly.
64. Cult of Luna - Eternal Kingdom (2008)
There’s a lot of generic postmetal out there, but this one is right there at the top. Especially Ghost Trail is a monstertrack!
65. Dälek - Gutter Tactics (2009)
Nice christmas vibe these militant and noisy guys bring :)
66. Deep Purple - Made in Japan (1972)
My love for Sabbath and Zeppelin is bigger, but this live album is ace, look at the song list!
67. Desert Mountain Tribe - Either That or the Moon (2016)
No-nonsense spacerock with indiefeel. Nothing wrong with that.
68. The Devil’s Blood - Come Reap (2008)
Some 20 years ago Selim was my coworker and we bonded pretty quickly. He was fan of my band and I loved his doom-outfit Red King Rising. A few years later I heard the demo for his new band The Devil’s Blood. Although it sounded crappy, the songs were a whole new level. I was an instant fanboy and probably always will stay a fanboy.
