I meant what more do you expect.

That was a big one for me too. First time I heard a Blonde Redhead song. Still one of my favourite songs of theirs. The rest of their records are all a bit of a mixed bag for me. The Sonora Pine, Rachel's and Don Caballero I was familiar with, at that point, and still love. I think it may have been at the same time I got into a band called My Dad is Dead.

Don't be such a sarcastic prick. She's a relatively new poster and probably trying to find out about things and bands to get into. No need to act like the eternally disappointed veteran of SYG, who thinks Talking Heads are a misunderstood band, or some shit like that.

Hush Nazi, you don't have to snipe at me. Just because I'm inadvertently giving you an overwhelming sense of your own aging doesn't mean that I'm all bad.

I'd also like to point out that when I joined this forum, I asked about thread-digging, and was told it was okay. So apologies if this goes against the forum grain.

EDIT: Also, there's been twenty more posts after my original revival one. So clearly this is a thread that needed to be.

Christ on a stick, what in all that is fuck is wrong with you. I really appreciate Claire's contribution to this board and I'm glad someone can bring back interesting topics that would otherwise remain dead. Worst case scenario, I'm guilty of not having used the smily in my post.

Just so you know, jump-the-gun dick, I happen to have prepared a big Blackstar-related project just for her that I haven't yet finished only because my online time is very limited compared to most people's here. Torn Curtain, Hipster Bebop Junkie, ilduclo, Severian and more can attest I'm not bullshitting because I've made comparable collections for them in the past. Have you done anything like that for an SYG member?

And I'm not sure whether Talking Heads are misunderstood. I'm not discovering anything by saying their first four albums are untouchable, that's for shit fuckin' sure.

So did Claire on mine. Yet she is still, and I quote (don't expect privacy at this point, fuckers), "interested in whatever project this is". Oh, are you now? Well isn't that convenient...

I didn't want to escalate it, but you had to go and do this.

My message giving Soup Nazi neg-rep:

While I'm interested in whatever project this is, I still think you're more than a little condescending.

Soup Nazi's PM reply:

And I stand by it, you are condescending, with your neurotic bitrate obsession, middle school-grade putdowns, and bizarre thirst for politicians. Not to mention your above knee-jerk response to Genteel Death for taking you the wrong way - something that a lot of people, including myself.

Whatever, keep your project. People like you are the reason it took me a while to feel like I belonged here. Apologies to everyone else who's not keen on this drama.

Honestly the album that didn't so much change my view of music but expanded it was Faith No More's Angel Dust. When my older brother and I first started getting albums/Cds in the early 90's the first albums we bought were Guns N' Roses and Metallica's discography. Both the Use Your Illusion albums and The Black Album were all over the rock stations and MTV, and Faith No More got just a bit of that spotlight seeing as they went on tour with them, but AngelDust was so much weirder. I had heard FNM's The Real Thing and dug it(dig it even more these days), but it was AngelDust that I just could not stop listening to. The last time I heard AngelDust was this morning, and to me it sounds just as out there and unlike most mainstream music currently.

This album taught me two things: how awesome Nine Inch Nails (and more aggressive/experimental music as a whole) are, and how awesome the Internet Archive is.

Nevermind. Sure it may be cliche, but it absolutely opened me up to so much. I was the total demographic middle school little punk at the time of it's release. I am a complete product of early-nineties MTV culture.


Oh, and btw, speaking of cliche...this belongs here right about now.

You should have stopped with your music choices.

I did it for Kurt to preserve his overlooked legacy. I think I neg-repped the wrong post of yours though. I may have to go back to it, one day.

I really don't think you were being ironic in your original post, so there's no need for you to be all defensive. I've no idea what your project is and I care even less. As for me shitting on everyone's music taste on the forum, I don't think that's the case. Some posters discuss music that is more similar to my taste, others don't. You don't like me airing my opinions about bands that I don't like because I think they are discussed too much at the expense of other bands whose music I appreciate more? Tough shit. Get used to it.

Well...this thread blew up didn't it.

...odd weather we're having, aren't we?
