There's no such thing as too much cowbell

Mötley Crüe - Too Fast For Love (1981)

Este ano finalmente tomei vergonha na cara e fui atrás dos discos do Mötley Crüe pra comprovar se eles são realmente a banda mais influente do hard rock oitentista. E não é que é verdade? Ouvi à exaustão todos os trabalhos lançados nessa década e a sensação é de uma descoberta excitante. Apesar das pessoas se dividirem em achar que o melhor álbum é o Shout At The Devil (pros mais puristas e old school) ou o Dr. Feelgood (pelo número de hits), meu voto fica com o Too Fast For Love, a estréia deles.

Começar um trabalho com Live Wire já mostra que os caras vieram pra detonar tudo, com uma sonoridade punk, porém no bom sentido (ou seja, com habilidade pra tocar instrumentos). A sequência com Come On And Dance e Public Enemy #1 continua num ritmo pegado, até que vem Merry-Go-Round, uma balada (se é que pode ser chamada assim) excelente.

A dobradinha Take Me To The Top e Piece Of Your Action chega com tudo, sendo que a primeira tem uma introdução muito foda e a segunda, um riff poderoso. Mas a minha preferida é Starry Eyes, uma música obscenamente boa. Nem sei por onde começar os elogios. O início só com a batera, o riff, o vocal, a linha de baixo. Enfim, a faixa inteira. O refrão é de uma perfeição inexplicável, isso que é só o nome da música repetido duas vezes. Imagina se tivesse algo mais na letra!

A faixa-título é uma paulada só, numa espécie de manifesto do espírito de urgência que permeia a banda (ok, essa foi frase foi uma putice sem tamanho, mas quem ouvir o disco vai entender o que eu quero dizer). Encerrando essa obra-prima, uma balada (mais uma vez, não sei se esse é o melhor termo, mas uso na falta de outro melhor) chamada On With The Show. A guitarrinha do início me rasga a alma e a letra também. Fico emocionado toda vez que ouço.

Outro destaque do disco é o uso indiscrimado de COWBELL. Tommy Lee usa o tempo inteiro e isso só pode ser louvado à exaustão. Maior componente de uma bateria, sem dúvida alguma. Das faixas bônus que vêm na última versão lançada nem vou falar nada, pois precisaria de outro post. Só deixo dito que Too Fast For Love é obrigatório pra qualquer pessoa que gosta de rock - de verdade, só pra lembrar pela enésima vez.

Concordo. Esse é o melhor disco deles. A tosqueira é grande, mas as canções são excelentes. Abs

Antenor:

Finalmente, já estava preocupado.

Barbarela. Power Chords com harmônicos estourando 90% do tempo. Cowbell. Safadeza pegada. Mas esse vocal é meio PAGLIA (ERNESTO).

EGS:

Fabian: certo. Aula de hard!

Ante: tudo tem seu tempo, já diria Cazuza (ns).

Ponso: Vince Neil é Deus. Sugiro ouvir com atenção. No mais, pegaste o espírito.

dante:

COME ON BABY, NO NO NO

UH MA MA MA, MA MA MAAA

Lia:

É CLARO que tu já botou MAIS cowbell (e mais Christopher Walken) em alguma música, naquele site, né? Diz pra mim que sim.

EGS:

Dante: maior música. Só perde pra "O inferno vai ter que esperar".

Lia: confesso que nunca fiz isso, não fique magoada. Mas sim, já vi a esquete (fatal) e já ouvi falar do site.

Hello there there. I actually value the factors you made. I dont believe Ive truly believed about it in that way. I can actually value how you approached the subject matter and what you stated genuinely gave me a brand new viewpoint. Thanks for taking the time to publish this all out.

The only place you'll find success before work is in the dictionary

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.

I admit, I have not been on this webpage in a long time... however it was another joy to see It is such an important topic and ignored by so many, even professionals. I thank you to help making people more aware of possible issues.Great stuff as usual.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass' favor.

You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!

I like this web blog so much, saved to fav.

I have to say that Im really unimpressed with this. I mean, sure, youve got some very interesting points. But this blog is just really lacking in something. Maybe its content, maybe its just the design. I dont know. But its almost like you wrote this because everybodys doing it. No passion at all.

Good luck getting people behind this one. Though you make some VERY fascinating points, youre going to have to do more than bring up a few things that may be different than what weve already heard. What are trying to say here? What do you want us to think? It seems like you cant really get behind a unique thought. Anyway, thats just my opinion.

I read your site for a while. Thanks for your contributions.

You sure do know what youre talking about. Man, this blog is just great! I cant wait to read more of what youve got to say. Im really happy that I came across this when I did because I was really starting to get bored with the whole blogging scene. Youve turned me around, man!

You have many useful pointers on this site.

Extremely easy by words but in reality�, a lot of things don`t correspond. Not everything is so rosy..!!

Thank you, a very interesting note!!....

Last a few years has been to Ibiza, so met a person there whose style of presentation is very similar to yours. But, unfortunately, that person is too far from the Internet!....

Internet is written with the capital letter in a sentence, by the way. And hundredths are written not with a point but with a comma. This is according to the standard. And actually everything is very good..!!

Sent the first post, but it wasn`t published. I am writing the second. It's me, the African tourist..

Very amusing thoughts, well told, everything is in its place:DD

Hi! Everyone who reads this blog - Happy Reconciliation and Accord..!!

Yeah, it is clear now !... From the very beginning I did not understand where was the connection with the title !!....

Yeah, in my opinion, it is written on every fence!!....

Can be also this issue because the truth can be achieved only in a dispute :DD

Good day! I do not see the conditions of using the information. May I copy the text from here on my site if you leave a link to this page?!....

I do`t regret that spent a few of minutes for reading. Write more often, surely'll come to read something new!....

It`s really useful! Looking through the Internet you can mostly observe watered down information, something like bla bla bla, but not here to my deep surprise. It makes me happy..!!

The material is on the five plus. But there is a minus! My internet speed 56kb/sek. The page was loading for about 40 seconds!....

Of course, I understand a little about this post but will try cope with it!!....

Thanks a lot! An extremely interesting comment!!....

Read, of course, far from my topic. But still, we can work together. How do you feel about trust management?!....

Develop the topic further! It is interesting to know more details..!!

Pleased to read intelligent thoughts in Russian. I`ve been living in England for already 5 years!....

I would add something else, of course, but in fact almost everything is mentioned!....

Author, keep doing in the same way..!!

I read online (computer problems) positive feedback about your resource. Didnt even believe it, and now saw myself. It turned out that I was not fooled!....

As usual, the webmaster posted correctly..!!

Received the letter. I agree to exchange the articles..

Yeah, in my opinion, it is written on every fence!!....

Uh, well, explain me a please, I am not quite in the subject, how can it be?!....

I`m so grateful that you enlightened me and the most important thing that it happened in time. Just think, I have been using the internet for six years already but it`s the first time I`ve ever heard about it!....

Yet, much is unclear. Could you describe in more details!....

Yeah, in my opinion, it is written on every fence!!....

It's straight to the point! You could not tell in other words! :DD

Youth rock band "Ranetki" says thank you for such a wonderful blog..!!

Interesting, but still I would like to know more about it. Liked the article:DD

Develop the topic further! It is interesting to know more details..!!

Have you ever considered about including a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is important and everything. However just imagine if you added some great graphics or video clips to give your posts more, "pop"! Your content is excellent but with pics and clips, this website could undeniably be one of the best in its niche. Fantastic blog!

I think this is one of the most vital information for me. And i am glad reading your article. But should remark on some general things, The site style is wonderful, the articles is really great : D. Good job, cheers
