Boards Archive] |
Welcome to the Vault Network
forum archive.
This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive.

A not-mentioned-very-oft band from times past.
If you like very "clean" rock n' roll, they're great.
Superb knowledge of theory and cliché/sometimes intense lyrics make for great, generic sounding rock n' roll.
The wonderful about them is that they're anything but generic. You'll hear TONS of modern bands in them. They subconsciously affected so many modern bands, but are rarely given credit for it.
Check them out.
Marquee Moon is a great album, and is my favorite by them. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000AI45P/sr=8-1/qid=1153200262/ref=pd_bbs_1/103-2037960-3570249?ie=UTF8

Good suggestion bro, Marquee Moon is one of the greatest records ever. Overlooked, too.
Another reason to check out this awesome band is Tom Verlaine. He's their guitarist, and is way, way, way too underrated. Marquee Moon is one damn good kick ass "guitar" album. You could also check out his work on the fantastic album Horses by Patti Smith, he was her backing guitarist.
