Has basically nothing to do with '70s Yes. It was a Trevor Horn-driven project that they slapped "Yes" onto.It holds up way better than it deserves to (certainly clean and produced but also one of the few hits of that time not drenched in regrettable reverb), but everything else from that era & late...

Looking for a Telecaster ashtray bridge that stays in better tune and doesn't sound dead or buzzy on the higher strings. The Masterys look awesome but cost nearly as much as I paid for this guitar (import knockoff that otherwise sounds and looks really good). Hoping there's a good in between option.

I've had most of the substitutions at this point and it ranges from fine to very good (the simple things like plain bread & crust being the h...

Agreed. The Sonics were more or less a revved up version of Bill Haley & the Comets but The Monks sounded and looked from another planet.

It's a 'distraction' for their side too. They can't win by by making white christian heritage their central focus. 'Bring back American jobs/revive the coal industry' is probably what put them over the top in 2016 but since that didn't happen.. at best they can try and make a decent economy (by the ...

After mentioning them in another another thread, I noticed they put out a new album a few months ago. Definitely more eclectic, but leaning heavily on early 80s post punk & new wave sounds: anything from Psychedelic Furs to Duran Duran. Not everything works (a dance punk song that sounds a little to...
