Yes! Thank you.



And I agree 100% with the Guns 'n' Roses put down.


The Melvins and the Butthole Surfers suck.

Also, Rapeman's Two Nuns and a Pack Mule is one of the few PERFECT records.

Fat Worm of Error have the best band name in the world, ish. Too bad they kinda suck.

I dunno. I like 16 Bitch Pile-Up just a little more.

Everyneurotic 04.16.2006 06:54 PM

i liked black dice a lot more when they used guitars and less synths

aaron dilloway solo is way better than wolf eyes

london calling is an ok album with only a couple of good songs

hair metal is a FUN musical genre. both intentionally and unintentionally

clap your hands say yeah is the worst band ever to be hyped

interpol sucks

that's a true statement

HaydenAsche 04.16.2006 06:55 PM

Hair Metal sucked. End of story.

Clap Your Hands Say Yes is horrible. Thanks for pointing that out. I must have forgotten them.

Rolling Stones are a bunch of dinosaurs.

Now that you think of it, most bands on the Ecstatic Peace ticket have awesome names. Jackie-O Motherfucker, Smegma, and My Cat is an Alien is to name but a few.

i think some of bright eyes stuff is brilliant

start with yr own opinion...then we will follow the pattern :D

DoubleNickels 04.16.2006 07:45 PM

I like Interpol a lot.

I liked Billy Corgan's solo record.

Wolf Parade is a fucking good band

But meh, we all have our own opinions.

I will argue that Jim's bass playing works better for SY as a 5 piece, but between Kim and Jim for a bass spot in a 4 piece? Kim takes that.

radiohead is boring

sonic youth's lyrics mostly suck. Lee's are usually good. (of course the music is always amazing)

magik markers are horrible

HaydenAsche 04.16.2006 08:59 PM

I will second Magik Markers is horrible until I am blue in the face.

Elisa can choke on skeet and die.

not unpopular with this board
but unpopular with the general tastes of the public is that The Sopranos (which have been using some terrific music this season) missed a perfect opportunity to close tonight's program with Sonic Youth's "New Hampshire".
Instead they used "The Fourth of July" by pseudo-L.A.-punkers X. khchris actually professed once that he likes this horrible band. I'd also like to remark that his contention with Steve Jones is a stupid one.

That's okay though, I got Duran Duran, Arcadia & Sade on my '80s list in that other thread haha. Which makes me remember that I forgot The Power Station on my list. That was a pretty damn good pop rock record. hey Hip Priest, Sting sings backup on a track on the Arcadia record. Also in 1985 ,he famously did back up vocals on the classic Dire Strait's Brothers in Arms track, Money for Nothing. Sting says his "I want my MTV" line was a parody of Don't Stand So Close to Me.

oh yeah, a little bit of some news for all you (well, most) music-hatin' fucktards:
I read that the May 9th Gilmore Girls season finale with Sonic Youth (news at main page) is actually an episode where Grant-Lee Phillips (something has always irked me about that guy) is leaving to go tour with Neil Young so the town (i guess, i've never seen the show) holds a Troubapalooza Festival & performers that will be featured (for seconds, i imagine at a time although SY were listed first in the blurb) are gonna be Sonic Youth, Yo La Tengo (recently they played a show with John Zorn & Sun Ra), Joe Pernice (now with the Pernice Brothers, formerly of Northampton's own The Scud Mountain Boys), Sparks (no shit...Thurston got to work with one of his absolute faves), & Mary Lynn Rajskub (who playes Chloe on 24).

...to quote John Lennon: "strange days indeed"

If it happens to be the latter and not the former, I believe you meant to type the words in this order "L.A. pseudo-punkers".

If it was the former, where are they actually from?

I love it when people are assholes.

Everyneurotic 04.16.2006 09:15 PM

ahhh, x are good!!

not as spin and most people try to say but we're desperate and johnny hit and run pauline are classic punk songs on par with anything you want to put besides.

sure, i hate their pseudo intellectual-poet pretentiousness but billy zoom was a massive guitarist

and they were from like around la, i think they lived in orange county or around. and i know john doe was from baltimore and moved to cali.

I'm sorry that we disagree, but I do not judge you because of it.

On the contrary, I am of the surprising opinion that you are quite lovable Mr. Asche.

Love,
A.B.


I find you to be quite lovable as well.

I like it when people point out other people's mistakes is what I should have said not "I like it when people are assholes."
