#tinmachine

Thimbely: @vanxllavixen

A supergroup with members of the Sex Pistols, Blondie and David Bowie’s Tin Machine, plus the guy who wrote Animotion’s so-80s-it-hurts classic “Obsession” and fronted Powerstation after Robert Palmer dropped out. How bad could it be? Bad. Really, really bloodlessly bad.

Check out a great, smart new book about #davidbowie — #davidbowieandromanticism — link in bio for details or visit jamesrovira.com Bowie closed out the 90s with #hours in #1999, which truthfully is probably his most radical musical departure since #tinmachine. He’s doing an updated version of late 70s #pop, a huge switch from his two previous albums, which featured #industrial music, and the two before that, which were very strongly #jazz influenced.

Check out a great, smart new book about #davidbowie — #davidbowieandromanticism — link in bio for details or visit jamesrovira.com #bowie ended the 80s sick of being David Bowie - he wanted to burn down the pop icon he had created throughout the 80s, and the band #tinmachine was his vehicle for doing so. Their first #album came out in #1989, and Bowie started the 90s with the second Tin Machine album, #tinmachineii I locate Tin Machine within the history of #grunge, but their second album is better produced than their first, which means I’m not sure if I like it more or not. But I like both of these albums. Picked this one up from @musiconvinyl in #coloredvinyl. I had to cut off the album cover because apparently the dumb algorithms on these social media sites can’t process statuary. Great guitar work by @reevesgabrels as always. #vinylcollector #vinyljunkie #vinylrecords #rocknroll #vinyladdict #rockandroll #vinyl #vinylcollection #rockmusic #vinylcommunity #vinyljunkie #music #classicrock #rock #rockmusic #rockandroll #rockandromanticism #90s #90srock #90smusic #newrock #alternative #moonagedaydream (at Manatee Cove) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClBxi5vLz6j/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Their first #album, released in #1989, or any of the band’s music for that matter, has not aged well in later receptions of Bowie’s work, but I love these albums. I think Tin Machine’s music needs to be evaluated against the history of #grunge, which was starting up about the same time. While members of the first grunge bands like @nirvana grew up listening to @ledzeppelin and #punk like I did, these bandmembers had been around a bit longer and were bringing in older influences. I love @reevesgabrels’s guitar work for this band, and #huntsales and #tonysales as the rhythm section drove these songs hard. #vinylcollector #vinyljunkie #vinylrecords #rocknroll #vinyladdict #rockandroll #vinyl #vinylcollection #rockmusic #vinylcommunity #vinyljunkie #music #classicrock #rock #rockmusic #rockandroll #rockandromanticism #80s #80srock #80smusic #newrock #alternative #moonagedaydream (at Vinyl Request Records) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck6VNTRO1Ht/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
