What I like about R.E.M. is I get sick of them and sell all their CDs, then a year or so later I can buy them all again for fifty cents each at the discount bin or library sale.


Hah. Yes. Monster is, I think, officially the most commonly found bargain bin/resale CD. Saw something about this a few years back.

I just keep my copy. Thurston on guitar? “Tongue?” “Let Me In?” “Strange Currencies?” Some great shit on that shit.

Fables was the last really good one if you ask me. Life's Rich pageant has a couple of tracks that I like but I think it's a Nostalgia talking.

I loved GREEN, but that's because it's the first album I heard and that tour was the one and only time I saw them live. Everything before that is cool, everything after that I don't like so much. Even Out Of Time, though I loved it back then. Probably heard it too many times and overkilled it. Monster might indeed be the odd on out, I think I also like that one, but it's a long time since I heard it.




as for today:
today is the day that I will only listen to Philippe Katerine. Because the sun is shining and I need some happy music. The guy is a genius in my eyes and ears, sort of like the Serge Gainsbourg of today.



Example one:
LA REVE, of which the lyrics are:


Quote:

C’est a...
C’est affreux...
C’est affreux j’ai...
C’est affreux j’ai rê...
C’est affreux j’ai rêvé...
C’est affreux j’ai rêvé que...
C’est affreux j’ai rêvé que je...
C’est affreux j’ai rêvé que je su...
C’est affreux j’ai rêvé que je suçais...
C’est affreux j’ai rêvé que je suçais Jo...
C’est affreux j’ai rêvé que je suçais Johnny !
C’est affreux j’ai rêvé que je suçais Johnny !

I clicked the link you posted but it goes nowhere. Looking on bandcamp now, but so far I’ve only been able to hear one track — the Bad Moon Rising-reminiscent “You Don’t Need,” which is fucking glorious.

Yes but I don’t necessarily always type it correctly on my phone.

You’re just gonna have to take my word for it that I knew the name of this classic album I and everyone here has owned for 25+ years. Or not. Dun’care

Hey, it’s “Xennial” now, fuckwad! And you’re probably one too.

RP Boo - “I’ll Tell You What!”

 


Another great RP Boo album, less abrasive than “Finger, Bank Pads & Shoe Prints,” but still pretty wild.

Music For The People
By Marky Mark And The Funky Bunch

Really not that bad. Not a classic--his flow is pretty one-dimensional and uninventive--but not a total joke either. Probably won't listen to it very much in the future tho.
