Faith no More - Sol Invictus for the last few days off and on.

Blur - The Magic Whip earlier today.

The Castle Face roster's song-by-song cover of Velvet Underground and Nico (in anticipation of Mutilator Defeated at Last, the new album by Thee Oh Sees dropping in May)

Snoop (Doggy) Dogg - Tha Doggfather

And repeated listens to the new Squarepusher, Damogen Furies. What a fuckin' album! And here I am without a glowstick!

I can see how it could be described that way. I imagine it appealed to a similar audience, but it feels too self-consciously backward looking to really qualify. Fairport Convention seem closer to The Band than any Prog bands I can think of.

The Wall - unexplainable besides the word asleep!!! will hang myself elevator muzak!!!

Yes. There are also some "prog" elements in Band. Also, many prog bands have at first same kind of warm, like "country" elements in their music (the greatest Finnish prog band Wigwam-members were huge Band-fans). That was long time before coldness of neoprog.

Very original to hate Pink Floyd. Rotten already did it in the seventies.

He recently recognized in an interview that it was a posture and he actually thought they were good.

[evollove]

^ Or is he posturing now? Oh, what an enigma.

Wonder if he stands by calling the Patti Smith album "Horse Shit."

and

 

I waited in line at record store day and when I got to the selections it was all so shit (so much Springsteen I wanted to barf) so I grabbed a reissue of Tago Mago, which I only had on a shitty cassette, and the Phish Live in NYC 1995 box set (6 LP's! 4 HOURS!) because the ticket price showed $75. I got to the register and the shit rang up at $175, and they showed me that the "1" was slightly misprinted making it look like a $75 purchase. I told them I did not want it and just bought the CAN album (which RULES ALL BTW), and walked outside Vinal Edge.

Behind me in line was my fellow Instigator Soza Vac, who without me knowing, grabbed the Phish box set, purchased it, and when he got outside gave it to me as a gift.!!!! I told him it was too much money, and that I could not accept that gift, and he would not let me give it back. what a friend. He told me to "think of it as your birthday present for years to come."

I love records.....

"Mushroomhead" is oddly one of my favorite "songs" of all time. Endlessly fascinating and really catchy. Coulda been a hit.

Does anybody remember a band from the 90s called Th' Faith Healers? I sure do, and I'm playin' 'em.

Follow up question: Why is almost every band from that period ever so much more memorable than just about any new band from 2000 forward? Like, Clay Your Hands, Say Yeah! Who cares or remembers much about them? Wolf Parade? Meh. Even Interpol. Meh. War on Drugs. Okay, some okay albums, but really, do we care?

[Rob Instigator]

Interpol had one good side of one good LP and the rest is idea-less treacle

i dont know that band but you need to listen to lightning bolt. while they may have formed in the 20th century their golden era is on the 21st. they will burn themselves in your mind.

same goes for deerhoof who really broke with reveille-- i've lost interest in them as of late but they were fantastic in the early 00s

pelican is also from this time. you don't like pelican? heavy as fuck.

animal collective? no?

wasn't trying to be original, but i do have an opinion so that's original. I honestly can't stand Pink Floyd. we can debate all day but NOTHING is going to change my mind. I've already wasted my time going through their albums trying to find something that clicks. there is that cool little keyboard solo in "Any Colour You Like", and of course the beautiful "Wish you were Here"... but the rest...desolate. boring. lethargic. infinitely boring.

im clearly a failed comedian.

now, CAN's Tago Mago. now that's a psych album!! it takes me places beyond dark side of the boring moon.

ok. Live at Pompeii is enjoyable. and fuck johnny rotten!! doesn't he like Can too?

1- No, but I'm listening now.

I've been giving fIREHOSE and Sebadoh and Last Splash alot of attention lately and this seems to fit in real well. Something called "Heart Fog?" Really like it.

2- Yes. A interesting, authentic time. Not like now.

What should I listen to next?
