I guess 'Crow' from At Action Park is Albini's strongest song ever.

It's because it's lo-fi (is that the word). It's the same with 'Slanted and Enchanted' by Pavement and Big Blacks 'Songs about fucking' albums.

There's a whole genre of comics in Japan, rape stories where women are raped in really graphic detail for whatever reason, and it's an amazing thing that this is just an accepted part of their sort of normal popular culture. Seeing one of these comic books really blows your mind if you're not familiar with the concept, and if you're looking at it as an American would look at a comic book, as something bery lighthearted, and y'know, sort of children's entertainment. You open up this comic book and there's this superhero who rapes people, as his profession. It's pretty amazing. So Ray Washam and I -- the drummer from Rapeman -- he and I were both sort of obsessed with this comic book for a while, we just thought it was the most amazing thing and kept looking at it, and we just realized that we should call the band that.

There was an episode of Law & Order on a few hours ago that talked about this comic book.

at least you got it for free on emule so then you can discard it one day when no one thinks it's "cool" anymore & not have any bad feelings

h8kurdt · 06.23.2006, 12:19 PM

Take it you don't like them, atari?

atari 2600 · 06.23.2006, 12:21 PM

I'm burned out on them...quick...
I have a couple of albums a couple of bootlegs & demos, etc...

so you see, I liked them at one time more than you even do now

h8kurdt · 06.23.2006, 12:24 PM
