Best Band to Have on Your Car Stereo As You Drive Off a Cliff.
 
The correct answer is, of course, Motorhead. But who would be the runners up?

 

MellySingsDoom 07.20.2008 05:27 PM

ZZ Top circa "Eliminator" - "Gimme all your lovin'..." CRASHHHH.

Boris - Pink

Happy Happy Joy Joy - Ren & Stimpys theme song!

Edit: on second thought, memory thinks its actually not their theme song but something annoying that stimpy would do.

Judging from your choices though, I've misunderstood the question. You mean music that would make you want to drive off a cliff, no?

atsonicpark 07.20.2008 07:05 PM

probably trout mask replica..

drrrtyboots 07.20.2008 07:06 PM

Black Eyes. Or maybe Shellac, too tough.

atsonicpark 07.20.2008 07:15 PM

I knew a guy (online) who did cocaine and drove around in the snow in circles listening to VEnetian Snares. So that'd probably work. Listen to winnipeg is a frozen shithole full blast with a car with good bass...

Black eyes would be great for rolling down a mountain.

LifeDistortion 07.20.2008 08:06 PM

Easy, "Highway to Hell". Cool pic.

LittlePuppetBoy 07.20.2008 08:18 PM

My nominations

Eric's Trip
Lilac Angel by Neu!

Dead-Air 07.20.2008 08:20 PM

As that could only be done ironically, I'd say the Partridge Family, in particular "Come On Get Happy".

Sonic Youth 37 07.20.2008 08:22 PM

Beethoven's 5th.

Ah, shit, Beethoven's not a band. For a band I'd say, Misfits, one of their earlier LPs.

Pixies - Wave of Mutilation

The rocking version, not the slow surf one.

A lot of Pixies would work. "Dead", "Here Comes Your Man" , "I Bleed" , "Monkey Gone To Heaven" "Break My Body" "Broken Face" "Where Is My Mind?"
I guess most Pixies songs would work.

ZEROpumpkins 07.20.2008 08:54 PM

I chose wave because the song is about killing yourself by driving off a cliff into the ocean.

You're right though.

Nah that's for when you drive a train so fast it flies off the rails and explodes into a school full of deaf children.

I'd say 'The Wind Cries Mary' by Hendrix would be pretty sweet dying music. Or the end of 'Free Bird'.

noisereductions 07.21.2008 08:25 AM

I remember Cex saying that track 02 (I forget the EXACT title) on OOPS I DID IT AGAIN was made as a song that was the soundtrack to driving off a cliff!
