Just kidding. I love them.

demonrail666 06.02.2009 07:33 AM

I'm not as big a fan as some of the others here but no, Husker Du don't sound crappy.

Rain hates you 4ever.

Not sure. I neg repped him and to no avail. It must have been somebody with higher importance than I have (and that narrows it down quite a bit).

joe11121 06.03.2009 03:03 PM

haha

it wasn't me. (*avoids eye contact in a shady manner*)

afterthefact 06.03.2009 03:37 PM

Ok, well it looks like someone up the ladder remedied the situation.

floatingslowly 06.03.2009 03:51 PM

Band is completely overrated.

so is their post break-up reunion (sans dead sitar player), Band 2.

their albums We Are Band and Band: This Is The Second Band Album are suitable only for bonfires.


edit: I see that this thread is actually about someone called husker du (whoever that is).

afterthefact 06.03.2009 03:55 PM

I did pick up the DVD, Band: Live at a Venue, it was ok.

floatingslowly 06.03.2009 04:10 PM

^^^ I've heard that it was supposed to be called Band: On the Run, until Paul McCartney threatened to sue.

demonrail666 06.03.2009 04:16 PM

Do you think The Band's commercial success was either helped or hindered by their name?

No pressure to answer. I'm just increasing my post count.

afterthefact 06.03.2009 04:17 PM

yes.

afterthefact 06.03.2009 04:17 PM

but maybe not.

afterthefact 06.03.2009 04:18 PM

Actually, I'm just trying to increase my post count as well.

afterthefact 06.03.2009 04:18 PM

It seems to be working.

you are talking about the band, The Band. I'm talking about the band, Band.

I can see how you might be confused.

Band has had no commercial success whatsoever.

commercial success destroys cult followings.

demonrail666 06.03.2009 04:33 PM

See, that's exactly the problem I'm talking about. If I send my mum out to get me the second The Band album (entitled simply The Band) she's likely to come back with a Band CD, I know she is. Mums will fuck you up like that every flippin time.

Green Magnesium 06.03.2009 05:08 PM

Husker Du is great. Very fun music.

By the way, if this is real, did you just join this site to ask us about Husker Du?

"Gee, someone I know likes Husker Du. Maybe I'll get online and join the Sonic Youth message board to find out more about Husker Du." ;-)

chrome noise tape 06.03.2009 05:35 PM

i love this crappy band

yr doin' it wrong. they are not something that you bring home to mother.

Band really starts to shine on message boards and coffee tables, where others can witness yr knowledge of it and give you that air of mystery that you've been searching for always.

for maximum effect, I would suggest finding Band's BR series.

BR 1: Noise is the Sound of Obscurity
BR 2: Мы играем одно примечание на очень долгое время
BR 4: Drie Kerels Zoemen Terwijl Twee Drukknoppen
BR 5: SONGS YOU WILL NEVER LISTEN TO IN YR CAR

(BR: 3 was never released)

musically they are all completely unlistenable. however, yr social life will thank you. you can thank ME about it later.

ps: buy yr mum some ABBA for fuck's sake.

demonrail666 06.03.2009 07:11 PM

My aunt has a promo copy of BR 2. She says its alligator-theme gets a bit old after a few listens. Now she yearns for something 'less amphibious'.

On my coffee table right now is:

a cup of coffee
an ashtray
a half smoked packet of pall malls
an empty plastic bottle that once contained sparkling water

I'm doing it so totally wrong, aren't I?

floatingslowly 06.03.2009 07:26 PM

no. yr doin' ok. besides, don't ask me. my ashtray is outside, my water is cherry coke zero and as far as Band is concerned, I got the cd's instead of vinyl. even those are sitting on the shelf, buried and never often played.

mostly, I'm just upset that iloverain&trees scooped me on Band. :(

I see what you did there...

Google Translate FAIL.



Appreciate the effort though, would read again. B+

automatic bzooty 06.11.2009 07:54 PM

I have BR 3, floatingslowly. I had to trade my soul to their manager to get it, though...
