Speaking of Isis have you listened to Palms with Chino from deftones? Its fucking EPIC good.. but the record suffers from poor production, check out this live show, FUCK!! Quote:
The older I get the less I care about the concept of selling out (hey folks got to make they money, bills don't pay themselves), but also the more I appreciate truly underground music and scenes.. Quote:
It can though.. its why even just seeing some mainstream bands at club gigs is so good. Sonic Youth secret show at the Filter party years ago was a MILLION times better than the bigger festival shows I've seen them headline.. The word intimate has become cliched, but it should still retain its original value in the experiential sense.. Underground is an experience, not a value.

Its undoubtable that for most bands smaller shows are better, acoustic and atmosphere wise.

Dude I have become OBSESSED with that show, I listen to it on the metro on the way to work at least once a week.. Its like everything I liked about Isis, and everything I liked about deftones, and combined it?? Also, Isis fans might hate me, but I think Chino's crooning and growls fit the Isis sound BETTER than Aaron (btw, they and me being from LA isis was kind of big here, and well appreciated, its why when I heard of Palms I think I pissed my pants in excitement..)

"I have seen Sonic Youth in concert twice. Opening for Pearl Jam and opening for Wilco...they sucked both times. Absolutely terrible. They can't play their instruments and they can't write songs."
"Sonic Youth = noise." "She was a total babe in the 90's. I know her ex, Thurston Moore, is a big fan of Nebraska" "Never heard of kim Gordon or Sonic Youth." Sonic Youth are a legendary band. I've seen them 4 times over the years including a February '91 gig at Eisenhower Hall at West Point Military Academy sharing an opening slot with Social Distortion for Neil Young & Crazy Horse's Ragged Glory tour (later immortalized as Weld) and in October '95 at The Roxy in Atlanta on the Washing Machine tour (my first Atlanta concert after moving there only two months earlier). Teenage Riot (from 1988's amazing Daydream Nation album) still sizzles and is easily one of my all-time favorite indie-rock tunes. Check them out. "No clue who she is but I have heard of Sonic Youth. I googled them and was surprised to see what they looked like, I honestly thought they were an African-American boy band" my favourite one. "By dissing Bruce at that gathering, Gordon knew she'd gain some free publicity for her flagging career--and apparently it's working. 8)" "Now I know that Springsteen has been accused of mumbling as a singer and it is hard to decipher some of his lyrics, but there is no way he is as incoherent as that chick. And, oh-by-the-way, she could be a poster child for what drugs do to your body and how they prematurely age you. She looked pretty rough." This is where some of the comments get nasty and stupid "My rebuttal to Kim Gordon: "Kim Gordon sucks, and looks like a malformed barbie that needs plastic surgery"/" "Someone put a bag over her head with eye/mouth holes cut out. No one needs to see that ugliness." "Bruce is not indie enough for them." "'m a fan of Sonic Youth; Daydream Nation and Goo were played to death on my record player back in the day; man, especially Goo, I frickin LOVED that record; But, Unlike a previous poster, I don't think SY will ever get into the HOF. I don't think they impacted the mainstream anywhere near enough to get consideration; They've been hugely influential, but so have Kraftwerk, Roxy Music, T Rex, The Jam, The Stone Roses, Wire etc etc and I doubt (unfortunately) that any of those bands will get in either." "At her face looking like melted wax and meth Bitch needs to check her face before she tries it with anyone" Sorry but I don't take the opinions of an irrelevant meth addict seriously, if she were a man he'd be getting the same treatment just like I scalped Bon Jovi's 70 year old lesbian looking face the other week "At Sonic Youth having 17 studio albums and NONE of them are certified anywhere in the world None have ever wanted it" " Never heard this name until now. Some people dislike artists just because they're successful. Must have sold out along the way somewhere. Never dawned on them that working your ass off day after day for years on end does actually work out for some people." TL;DR Bruce fans get angry. To be fair there were a fair few people defending her. These are just some of the comments. Bless.

so I see h8kurdt took my advice, those are generally the kinds of responses I've always gotten when mentioning sonic youth outside of this forum/SY community

I'm just mad at him because I bought a 7" I thought was for I'm On Fire, but instead it was a live version of Bruce singing "Fire" (one of my most hated standards). fucker ripped me off.

I feel like the decision to have women sing the songs (not to mention the fact that they sounded so great) says alot about Kurt Cobain and his music.
First off, I applaud this decision because it seems to acknowledge the sad dearth of male singers who pitifully try to emulate Kurt, or simply have nothing to add to his songs with less interesting vocal performances. Really, the only way to do a nirvana tribute without it seeming like corny Karaoke is to have women sing. The fact that it worked so well is a testament to how truly androgynous Kurt's work and legacy is. Kurt was never David Lee Roth, Paul Stanley, or even Henry Rollins.. his lyrics and message were never about being a man or limited to a masculine experience/perspective. Again, incredibly happy that they executed it this way. |

I wish my comment had not been moderated.
I mentioned hos the Boss is upset because his knock-off, John Cougar Mellencamp, wrote better songs than him. I also mentioned hoe Bruce is a multi millionaire who still sells himself as a blue-collar guy. bullshit. I also mentioned how the old hags troll his concerts looking to suck on clarence clemons dead ballsac.
