5 Bands To Nurse A New Years Hangover

January 1, 2008 by Scott

After the typical New Years ritual and the aftermath the next day there is just no way I can listen to the blast beats and distorted guitars of Metal. I have to slow things down for a few hours and soften it up a bit. Here is a list of some bands I like to listen to when I’m hungover.

1. Pink Floyd- The Division Bell has got to be by far the best music to listen to when you want to relax and feel better. Wish You Were Here and Dark Side Of The Moon are great too.

2. Zakk Wylde’s BLS- Anything mellow by Zakk’s Black Label. I’m not a big BLS fan but Zakk knows how to right some good softies.

3. Nirvana- Unplugged in NY. I don’t care who you are or where you’ve been. There is no better unplugged recording than this.

4. Stone Sour- Bother, Through Glass and Zzyxx Rd get thrown in the mix. Corey Taylor can scream his ass off but when he writes an acoustic song it is an amazing thing.

5. Marty Friedman- If you have never experienced Marty Friedman’s solo work I highly suggest getting a copy of Scenes, Introduction, Or True Obsession. Aside from being the best Guitar player Megadeth ever had, Marty is an extraordinary solo artist.

There are many other bands I may listen to when I’m trying to cure a hangover, but these are just a few that come into mind. I hope everyone had a great New Years Eve and a great New Year.
