Hey there, easy targets. I have yet to hear a Dinosaur Jr song that I can actually remember. I've probably heard Freak Scene a million times, but I couldn't, for the life of me, tell you how the chorus goes. If, in fact, it has a chorus.

Dino Jr songs don't have choruses, Glice. Where other band's songs would have a chorus, Dino Jr songs have an unnecessary long guitar solo instead.

J Mascis' solos are ace sometimes.

screamingskull 08.16.2007 06:25 AM

sometimes, but sometimes they are unnecessarily long

sarramkrop 08.16.2007 06:26 AM

That's why I said sometimes, sometimes.

screamingskull 08.16.2007 06:29 AM

ha ha ha, okay, alright then.

New Order were better than Joy Division.

Yes.

The Velvet Underground felt more close to The Who than any other bands that were making music at the same time as them, therefore I feel close to them too. The good Who, not the bad Who.

These must have been done, but: I don't like Bowie or Bolan. Bowie less, I just don't get it.

caring less wouldnt bother me a bit...thats how much i care to begin with.

No, you couldn't care less than you already do. Could implies you care, and could care less.

Pookie 08.16.2007 06:48 AM

swa(y) you fool, can't you see I'm trying to tell you I love you.

I just can't dig the Flaming Lips. I was into a couple of songs off Transmissions and Clouds, but that quickly fizzled away. Not quite sure why, I think that it's Wayne's voice. Don't get me wrong, I like Abandoned Hospital Ship, She Don't Use Jelly and Slow Nerve Action, but not much else.

happy now?

No. Couldn't care less is a way of saying how little you care. It doesn't necessarily mean you literally care as little as you possibly could. It's just a way of making a point. Same as saying you hate something, when really you don't, like I hate the way Americans screw up the English language. I don't actually hate it...wait a minute, bad example.

I hate you (see).

Pookie 08.16.2007 06:53 AM

Flaming Lips, Yo La Tengo. I get them mixed up, but hate them both (see previous post for definition of hate).

In A Priest Driven Ambulence is better than anything the Flaming Lips did before and after.
