i am not ashamed

Posted by doubter on Sunday, January 25th, 2009

i am actually half contemplating going and seeing the boys of tesla here in new orleans on 2.16 @ the house of blues. as a child of the 80′s, born in 74, i listened to a lot of metal back in the day, both good and bad and downright fuckin horrible. 99 percent of which i have no need for any more, but for some reason, there is one band i still listen to, to this day. that band is tesla. i dont care how cool you think you are, if you are of my age, its hard denying your metal roots. if you can take these songs for what they are, me thinks you may dig em. just fuckin drop any kind of pretension you may built up in you soul…

love song

signs

what you give

paradise

nothing to do with tesla, but i love this song

    there is no shame in tesla. having seen them in concert with def leppard, great white and motley crue is the only reason we worry. by being better than those bands, and by being the first to go acoustic, they deserve as much credit as guns n roses for killing that scene.

    Tesla is still one of my favorite bands. Not ashamed either…..although their latest album leaves a lot to be desired in my opinion.

    Their previous album Into The Now, is a must have, if you don’t have it…

    And PS – they just put out a great live DVD about a year ago….fantastic!!
