Was There Ever A Moment When You Liked The Afghan Whigs?
 

I'm curious. They sold a lot of records, to someone.:confused:

No. Nonononononno. No.

I'll admit... there was. What was it, eh, 1994?

They played the first festival I ever went to, as a little pokkeherrie. Much later I bought that album from the sales racks, but I don't think I ever even played it once.

I might add, the one I got was second hand, so wouldn't even count in the sales figures.


I like how you phrased that question in the thread title.

I kinda like them. Never bought any of their records aside from one Sub Pop 7" though...

Meh, they have a couple songs I kinda dig. I wouldn't really say I was ever a 'fan' though.

I got Gentlemen but got over it fast.

Yes, I was into them when that record Black Love came out, I listenend to some of their other records and thought they were crap though, then some years later i came back to Black Love and wondered what I ever liked it for in the first place

i listened to this song so many times i can't tell what i think of it anymore

i still play the cassette sometime, got it from a friend a few months after it came out.

No, that was the point when I began to realize that Sub Pop could do wrong.

I never got the fuss over Gentlemen.

That song Debonair was alright. But i remember being dissapointed the more i heard them

I remember a few years ago buying one of their cds for 49 cents because I had heard that they were good and I'll always take a gamble with such a small amount if I have it. I listened to it, but I thought it was quite boring. I don't think it must have been one of their better albums, but I didn't really care for investing any more money in them. The cd had a picture of an astronaut in Earth's orbit, but didn't have the band's name or the name of the album. I think it may have been called 1967, but I don't really remember.

I never stopped liking them.

He has the sexiest voice ever imo.

I'm not sure I've ever especially liked Afghan Whigs, but I like a few of their songs. This one comes in for a particular amount of love from me:

Close, it's 1965, their last album.

There was a moment when I first consciously heard of the Afghan Whigs, and that was right now.

Will I regret it? Time (as well as YouTube, Wikipedia, and iTunes) will tell.

Don't get your hopes up too much I spose.

there hasn't been a moment.......................yet.

Gentleman has some fucking amazing songs on it, especially the one with the singer from Scrawl. Also, "Be Sweet" is a masterpiece. Not really my kind of band but they're not bad.
