perhaps this has already been covered, but: steve albini's agreement to record bush's razorblade suitcase, saying he honestly thought they could play.

i don't think that was too popular on either side of the fence.

[Infinite Spark]

Bands i like, but i don't think many on here do...:

Sultans of ping f.c.
Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine
Howling Bells
Unwound
MC Solaar

Over-rated bands/artists:
Yo La Tengo
Nirvana (they're not that fucking great, surely?)
quintessentially, O-fucking-asis!

Also, i find i like the idea of Leonard Cohen, but can hardly listen to 90% of his stuff...

[LDopa]

Queen is a good band.

I like Japanese girls
Cool, cool, cool, cool, Japansese girls

Maki and mariko live in Edgware Road
They travelled in an Aeroplane from Tokyo
Little Kaori come from Osaka town
They make you feel happy when you're feeling down

I like Japanese girls
Cool, cool, cool, cool, Japansese girls
I like Japanese girls
Saiko! Saiko! Japanese girls


Lalalala, lala, lalalala

It's going to be crazy, I can't wait to go

I like Japanese girls
Cool, cool, cool, cool, Japansese girls
I like Japanese girls
Saiko! Saiko! Japanese girls

And I know we're far away from home
Sometimes you and I feel so alone
But we have fun in pubs and discotheques
And I really like you Japanese girls

lalalala, lala, lalalala
lalalala, lala, lalalala
lalalala, lala, lalalala
lalalala, lala, Japanese girls.

Also, I love sea shanties.

[LDopa]

The Beta Band sound like C-grade Beck songs. Except for a couple.

Not sure if that's an unpopular opion though.

[Pookie]

Van Morrison bores me to tears.

[ZEROpumpkins]

80's Clash sucked.
Trompe Le Monde kicked the living shit out of Bossanova, which I believe is a really weak album.
Moby's Play is a good album
Warehouse songs and stories bored me.

Wait... I dont get this thread. Are you posting your musical opinions or do you jsut post crappy random ones?

[Iain]

I've said this before, probably on this thread, and I'll say it again.

Fugazi are boooooorrriiinnnng.

Slint's Spiderland kind of bores me. I prefer The For Carnation.

That's the popular opinion. Mine is the unpopular opinion, The Clash's 80s output was fantastic.

I never got Slint. A poor man's Big Black.

slint aren't anything like big black!


70s or 80s it makes no difference, everything the clash did was total rubbish.

I prefer Squirrel Bait than Slint. Perhaps Pookie is thinking about them, when he compares them to Big Black.

 

The Walkabouts might have made their fair share of crap records, but they still remain underrated.

No, I'm thinking about Slint.

Bollocks.

By the way, I'll send your 7"s tomorrow. I couldn't carry them everybody's to work in one go, so I'm doing them a bit at a time.

I heard of them, but not heard them - any recommendations?

[jon boy]
