I am. Used to have some of the JP sessions on vinyl ages ago.If you're familiar with John peel, this track was in his top 50. But so was Abba's "supertrooper" (fair enough) and the undertones "teenage kicks"
Kinda guessing that most may not be interested in answering this (for others it may be sacrilege) but in listening to this have gotten to This Love and it’s bugging me : like the start of it reminds me of someone but i’m not sure who? An Alice in Chains feel?

You’re thinking of Rooster by Alice In Chains, but what it actually reminds you of is this:Kinda guessing that most may not be interested in answering this (for others it may be sacrilege) but in listening to this have gotten to This Love and it’s bugging me : like the start of it reminds me of someone but i’m not sure who?

Just for kicks I’m listening to Superunknown which I’ve always been fond of (3/4s of it at any rate). Just thinking on the other thread where we’ve been doing Physical Graffiti, and it strikes me as quite remarkable how much (on this record) Soundgarden sounds like Zep!It's hard for me to explain as I don't like the genre either haha!!
Nirvana and Soundgarden are superb and can provide that hard and loud sound. But if you want to push it harder, faster, louder, nastier and just plain angrier you get Pantera! It's difficult to explain but I think the the melody is there, but it's not obvious. It's in the riffs really but part of the hook is his OTT vocal which is partly why I think it's panto at times!
If you want to feel angry, vicious and fired up and want your head to get caved in, this album does it! I don't know why I like(d) it as I never got into fights, but it's fighting music haha.
If you were playing for City against United and it's 0-0 and we needed to win to win the PL....and we get a corner....you can pick a tune to listen to before you charge into the box at full pelt, this is what you go for haha!

IIRC the Zep comparison was made in some of the reviews at the time. Like you, I like a good chunk of it. i think that there are 4 or 5 tracks that could have been chucked off Superunknown to make it a superb album rather than a good one. And those tracks are probably those that are straying into Pantera territory.Just for kicks I’m listening to Superunknown which I’ve always been fond of (3/4s of it at any rate).

I gave it one listen through. Can't face a second. Can't find anything positive to say so will say nothing more other than 1/10.

So many acts really wanted to be Led Zep, from Marc Bolan to the Sex Pistols.Just for kicks I’m listening to Superunknown which I’ve always been fond of (3/4s of it at any rate).
