if SY isnt the greatest band of alltime then who is
 

shit how the fuck did this happen. i guess i previewed it wrong. oh well here are some pics for your trouble.

...the worst band of all time? magick markers.

oh adam, in jest im sure!! :-)

Nine Inch Nails

Sham 69.

The JB's or The Beatles.

worst band is the clash.

best band is sunburned hand of the no neck.

Hm. The Ex. In my book.

Oh Sham 69...
Back in 1998, a TV channel airing on the satellite broadcasted old Top of the Pops shows.
I saw them and understood why so many other British bands labelled as punk dismissed them.
Terrible lyrics, terrible delivery of them; atrocious.

agreed.

The Velvet Underground/The Beatles?

Sun Ra & His Arkestra

You must pass some ebeerr around before giving it to dead-air again

Sun ra is soooo ggooodd and aI don't know what to do about it, I oly haver one of his records thouhg

^ebay. you can find most of his vinyl for reasonable cash, I just got a copy of ''Cosmos'' for like 8 bucks. The record is in good shape(not scratched beyond normal wear/tear, and it isn't warped).

The best band of all time are Boredoms.

The Magick Markers can be the worst band ever for all I care, as long as the Magik Markers aren't involved.

I only have around 10 recordings of my own. I've done two radio shows where I played all Sun Ra though - one for four hours and one for six hours, both at KAOS in Oly back in the day.

During the four hour one, I was "prank called" by a bunch of guys from the Lucky Seven House including Justin from Unwound and Dustin their roadie. They kept trying to harrass me and ask leading questions, but I just answered them sincerely with the best answers I had that I knew, and they ended up totally getting into the show and listening to the whole thing. Meanwhile, they were taping everything both sides said, and one of the guys, Mike, ended up putting out this zine of the transcript called "Ricardo Wang's Legs - The Sun Ra Years". Apparently there had already been zines in this series called "Mat Lukin's Legs" and "Joe Preston's Legs", so I'm honored to be the only person in the series who never got to play bass in the Melvins.

They very well may be. I haven't heard anything by them that I dislike.

It's tough.

Phish/

...Because Sonic Youth aren't that great.

When I think of great bands I don't think of bands I like that much. Maybe Explosions In The Sky, GY!BE, or ASMZ. I dunno. Most bands are shit.

Boredoms are nice.

You don't like EITS, GY!BE or ASMZ much???

EITS are sy hacks are you kidding?!

well you live in a meth-lab so what do you know
and 8,300 since march?! no fucking honor.

The Velvet Underground.
Peter & the Wolf.
Joy Division.

Not as much as Xiu Xiu, Cat Power, or others. I'm just saying Xiu Xiu and Cat Power hit me where it hurts but they aren't worthy of best band ever.

but!!!!

PHISH IS!

whoa i guess ive underestimated what this city has to offer. personally my favorite locals are Fuck Work ....wait is there another PATW?

alright so theres obviously all this love for Unwound so who else loves Worst Case Scenario

the velvet undeground
the smashing pumpkins
the breeders

The Smashing Pumpkins
Belle & Sebastian
Kyuss
Queens of the Stoneage
Pink Floyd
i don't know...

They were my homies back in the East Oly days! The whole group lived at the Lucky Seven House (WCS) at the time when they had these amazing coffee hours (since 2/3s of them worked at Starbucks as well) every other Tuesday.

Nah, it's Whiskey & Apple's Peter & the Wolf straight from Austin, TX. If you want to get hooked with some music by them, just hit me up. Excellent "folk" music, possibly the best I've ever come across.

there can be no greatest or worse band ever. bands positive and negative aspects depend on the contextual tastes and pleasures of the individual listener.

personally, of that ive heard - raincoats, sy, shonen knife, deerhoof and mbv would be my best bands ever.

Radiohead is also a very decent band.
MBV, good call.

Hootie and the Blowfish.


no, shit, not really.

I would say one of those:

Joy Division
Radiohead
Television
MBV
Cocteau Twins

in terms of importance and legacy for artists following.

oh fuck yes. i was getting worried i was all alone here for a second.

haha! you crack me up slavo
