Start from page one of this thread would help.

Apparitions and Strange Day works for everyone.

Life Beyond Minimum safe distance and Fine Art of Falling Apart are just plain beautiful

Suburbia is a great song that I relate to.

A Boy and His Machine Gun, Advertising on Police Cars, Tripoli are also highlights of his songs.

Omissions of the Omen can never be left out.

"How can we justify spending so much on destruction and so little on life?" Matthew Good

"The white dove is gone, the one world has come down hard, so why not share the pain of our problems, when all around are wrong ways, when all around is hurt, i'll roll up in an odd shape and wait, untill the tide has turned.....with anger, i'm dead weight, i'm anchored"- IME, God Rocket (Into the Heart of Las Vegas) ^ Some say this song is about a terrorists thoughts before 911

"Pray for the sheep" Matt Good
"But it's alright, take the world and make it yours again" Matt Good

I felt it in the wind, and i saw it in the sky, i thought it was the end, i thought it was the 4th of July.

What Odin said, but be sure to check out Giant, Going All the Way, Sort of a Protest Song, Running for Home, and Prime Time Deliverance. That's a lot of songs, I know, but it'll only take one to hook you or decide you otherwise.

but is anyone clear on the ones he did on his own, before all that? (e.g. history teacher, euphony, broken demo) were they all demos or were any of them an actual album?

History Teacher was not an official release, it just compilations by fans.

The Rodchester Kings was Matt's previous band where he was the vocalist, they released:
...and in closing (1991)
Sleep - single (1992)

These are solo releases by Matt Good
Broken (1993)
Left of Normal (1993)
Euphony (1994)
15 Hours on a September Thursday (1994)
Live - a live studio version of 15 Hours, with no overdub (1994)

I ordered the Australian Hello Time Bomb single! It has the tracks Enjoy the Silence and Fated!

way back when I was just going through kazaa and i was looking for buckcherry's time bomb, and i saw MGB's hello timebomb, and i don't think anything can hook you better than that song. It's so catchy and so badass. Get Hello Timebomb

So, does anyone have the weapon video yet that i can steal from you. I hate waiting for quicktime to load it.

I just noticed there's now a new function called clubs on CM.

I say we should start a "Good" music supporters anti-society club, suggestions on what the name should be and everything?
