Thin White Rope
Thin White Rope was an American rock band fronted by Guy Kyser and related to the desert rock and Paisley Underground subgenres. The band released five albums. Origins The band was formed in Davis, California, during a period spanning 1981 and 1982. Founding members Guy Kyser and Jozef Becker were in a band called the Les Z Boys in 1981. Becker and Kyser split off during the 1981-1982 period, and posted an ad at Skip's Music seeking a bass player and another guitarist. Roger Kunkel answered the ad, bringing in bass player Kevin Staydohar. The newly formed band played some of the same covers as the Les Z Boys, and also began to introduce original songs by Kyser. The name "Thin White Rope" was derived from William S. Burroughs' description of human semen in ''Naked Lunch''. It was suggested by a friend of Becker and agreed upon by the four original members during the 1981–1982 period. Career Steve Tesluk (bass) and Frank French (drums) joined the group in 1983, replacing Stay ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Rock Music
Rock music is a broad genre of popular music that originated as " rock and roll" in the United States in the late 1940s and early 1950s, developing into a range of different styles in the mid-1960s and later, particularly in the United States and United Kingdom.W. E. Studwell and D. F. Lonergan, ''The Classic Rock and Roll Reader: Rock Music from its Beginnings to the mid-1970s'' (Abingdon: Routledge, 1999), p.xi It has its roots in 1940s and 1950s rock and roll, a style that drew directly from the blues and rhythm and blues genres of African-American music and from country music. Rock also drew strongly from a number of other genres such as electric blues and folk, and incorporated influences from jazz, classical, and other musical styles. For instrumentation, rock has centered on the electric guitar, usually as part of a rock group with electric bass guitar, drums, and one or more singers. Usually, rock is song-based music with a time signature using a verse–chorus form, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Moonhead
''Moonhead'' is the second full-length album by Thin White Rope, released in 1987. Critical reception ''Trouser Press'' wrote that the album "alters the modus operandi a bit, stretching song lengths and forging a provocative, embryonic bond between wiry, Television-styled guitar interplay and groove-conscious kraut-rock rhythms (held in place by Jozef Becker’s incredibly focused drumming)." The ''Los Angeles Times'' called the album "excellent," writing that the band's "fuzzy, often dissonant twin-guitar solos recall such diverse groups as Television and Spirit, as its material takes traditional forms and bends them into something unexpected, going from Western gallops to psychedelic dirges." ''The Guardian'' deemed "Crawl Piss Freeze" "not so much a song as an apocalyptic death march," while AllMusic described it as a postcard "from the edge."

Sack Full Of Silver
''Sack Full of Silver'' is the fourth full-length album by Thin White Rope. It is the band's debut on major label RCA Records. Composed whilst on tour in Europe, the album was noted for its "visceral" instrumental performances, Guy Kyser's gravelly vocals and his personal, abstract lyricism. Despite selling less than its predecessors, the album went on to receive critical acclaim from the mainstream press and is regarded as one of the most underrated albums in the band's discography. Background ''Sack Full of Silver'' was composed largely during a lengthy European tour over 1988-89, which included 16 dates in the USSR. According to guitarist/vocalist Guy Kyser:We had a lot of down time in urfirst couple of European tours ..They were poorly organized. We'd be stuck in an old house in Sweden for three days, or laying around Rome for five days, without any money and usually writing songs just to pass the time.The band utilised this aforementioned downtime to compose the songs th ...

Allmusic
AllMusic (previously known as All Music Guide and AMG) is an American online music database. It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands. Initiated in 1991, the database was first made available on the Internet in 1994. AllMusic is owned by RhythmOne. History AllMusic was launched as ''All Music Guide'' by Michael Erlewine, a "compulsive archivist, noted astrologer, Buddhist scholar and musician". He became interested in using computers for his astrological work in the mid-1970s and founded a software company, Matrix, in 1977. In the early 1990s, as CDs replaced LPs as the dominant format for recorded music, Erlewine purchased what he thought was a CD of early recordings by Little Richard. After buying it he discovered it was a "flaccid latter-day rehash". Frustrated with the labeling, he researched using metadata to create a music guide. In 1990, in Big Rapids, Michigan, he founded ''All Music Guide' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
