The Trux were fucking awesome interviewees. Much better than their cack records. Still, the cack records: good interviews is more appealing than cack records: cack interviews.

sarramkrop 07.07.2009 12:16 PM

I don't know about that. There are different ways to approach an interview. Mark E Smith, for instance, can be really entertaining, but sometimes he's really irritating because he speaks a lot of crap, often not even in a funny way. And Royal Trux could be as good as their records on interviews.

is the plastic crimewave/michael yonkers collab availible?

batreleaser 07.08.2009 12:16 AM

they were interesting, smart, tortrued junkies with awesome tastes in music. and i hope by "cack" you mean amazing, because the trux were the best band of the 90s in my opinion, at least in the top 3 or 4 bands for me.

I didn't even know there was one. This website has it on sale: http://kreationrecords.net/index.php...oducts_id=8188

batreleaser 07.08.2009 12:39 PM

thanks, i think ill order it. yonkers' "microminiature love" is one of my favorite records of its kind, the influence of that record is all over the underground, especially on the neo-psych garage bands of today, which there are a lot of. i also think it kind of sounds like "bad moon rising" for some reason, bcause they're both like these dark and dissonant takes on classic American psychedelic rock n roll.

Very true. In that interview I posted there are times where he seems motivated simply to shock or provoke by espousing deliberately non-pc views. I like MES but he sometimes needs to remind himself that pretending he's some down to earth speak-as-you-find type doesn't really wash when the actual reality is that he's a singer in an art rock band. It's easy to appear more working-class-than-thou in front of an NME journalist. I doubt he'd fair so well in a pub full of trawler fishermen though.

batreleaser 07.09.2009 01:49 PM

i cant even understand mark e smith in his interviews, he always sounds like he's giving interviews in the middle of alcohol-induced delerium tremens, which he very well might be. long live the fall!

TheMadcapLaughs 07.09.2009 08:44 PM

man thank u so much for that mes, shane m, and nick cave interview. wasn't there another nme summit thingy, maybe even the next year, featuring j mascis, thurston, and gibby from the butthole surfers? someone should post that if they got it.

Good thread, never seen it.

Here's another classic one:

I am infatuated with Royal Trux

Keeping It Simple 05.03.2011 10:04 AM

I always enjoy watching or reading John Lydon interviews. He's a very interesting, opinionated man.

Genteel Death 09.30.2012 11:04 AM

I never knew that Kevin Shields was such an interesting individual. Of course I didn't, your ''insightful'' opinions about MBV often gave me stomach cancer in the form of praise or hatred for this band so often.

Here's a Ptolemaic Terrascope piece on Six Organs back from 1999:

not technically an interview but a nice read nonetheless
