Just got this beauty!

My son was into ,Slipknot and other screamo's
..but surprised me with some "Sea shanty " phenomenon. Recently !
..It's almost as good as rap ,,with all those
"Sea Farin -Live or die ,words of encouragement ".

Oi, there's nothing wrong with Slipknot. Try listening to 'The Devil In I' with the volume up LOUD ?

 

[Mike Johnson]

Seasick Dave comes to mind.

Time out beat me to it Seaskick Steve, not Dave:

 

[littlespark]

So a postman from Irvine makes it big on TikTok with a decades old sea shanty song....

Can any of you lot sing?


I prefer this version

Maybe some Alestorm?

Maybe some Alestorm?

All the better when combined with The Wurzels

 

[pc1966]

Or for a more traditional sailor's song (not for the easily offended):

Too true ,its my antidote to having 70s disco tune stuck in my head.
( and that fettish german lot ... Rammstein )--There's a journey .

Don't know much about Rammstein apart from what they occasionaly play on Planet Rock. It does seem a bit of an aquired taste.

Meinland is top tune, especially nice and loud. Don't know any of their other stuff though.

For me I would probably go for Reise, Reise (keeping the nautical theme as well)

I shall have a listen!

There was a video that got played on (I believe) Kerrang quite often involing Snow White and Rammstein were the 7 dwarves. Not sure what song it was but seemed good even if it was in German.

 

[pc1966]

Not idea what they are saying. Snow White spanking the "dwarfs" got my interest LOL!

 

[Moley]

Ah, that's the puppy. Used to get played a lot. Not sure if they are a group I could get into but okay as background music in the van.

While we’re talking about music, can you all spare a thought for my household?

eldest is into kpop. My ears bleed

middle one loves Eurovision. Even watches the different heats to find each countries entrants. Nil points

the young one surprises me. Will listen to what her sisters do, but suddenly starts singing along to my random Spotify playlist.
“Artic Monkeys! That’s cool, Dad”

Tragic.

Get them a Rolling Stones collection.

 

[Moley]

Sit them all down and make them listen to Pink Floyd. If they don't like it kick 'em out!

 

[telectrix]

make them listen to Pink Floyd, Deep purple, and Black Sabbath.

corrected for you.
