I bought a Crime record the other day.

They are better than your band.

I had no idea that the music video segments of Beavis and Butthead were so full of early 90s alt/indie coolness. Now I know more about Jon Spencer Blues Explosion by seeing their video for "Dang." Hah, that's some crazy sh[color=white]it, and I like crazy sh[/color]it!

Now there's something on called "Love Spreads" by Stone Roses. Neat!

For a college student, you're a rather late-bloomer.

Beavis and Butthead are cartoon deities.

[QUOTE=Swami]For a college student, you're a rather late-bloomer.

No let me explain:

I saw the cartoons when they first came out and I was like ten years old. I didn't "get" that the cartoon was making fun of stupid teenagers, and the music videos were usually forgotten if they weren't sufficiently flashy.

But now that I get MTV2, I can watch the shows again and re-absorb all that I've lost.

I wasn't just basing my statement on that Ian.

Not really. The Stone Roses suck.

The Ashtray Girl 03-19-2005 08:27 AM

Their first album didn't. That was some good stuff.

Iai 03-19-2005 08:41 AM

At least the first album had I Wanna Be Adored, I guess. Rest of it sucked though.

Deathapalooza04 03-19-2005 03:45 PM

Lately I've been rediscovering my obsession with Les Claypool, in the form of Primus - Brown Album and Les Claypool and the Holy Mackerel - Highball With the Devil.

Plus the standard alt/indie fodder: The Arcade Fire, Bloc Party, Modest Mouse and of course Hot Snakes.

I am in agreement. I bought the self titled because everyone said it was so good. One of the most boring cds I own.

Iai 03-19-2005 05:39 PM

Somebody bought it for me. They were wise enough to give me a receipt. I think I returned it and got a Smiths album, which some (NPC) may find ironic.

Today I've dug Jem's 'Finally Woken'. Shockingly good piece of trip-pop. Like Morcheeba meets Moby.

I also dug a bit of Prince's 'Sign O The Times', and a bit of Weird Al.

[i]Fools Gold[/i] does not suck. Other than that, you're right.

NineBitFable 03-19-2005 07:30 PM

Mars Volta- Frances the Mute

Eh... its alright, there are three minutes in the first song that are just insane and make me wish the rest of the record were as good. and on one of the songs I could swear they stole a riff directly from a Yes song.

Iai 03-19-2005 08:10 PM

[QUOTE=Tomahawk][i]Fools Gold[/i] does not suck. Other than that, you're right.[/QUOTE]
You know what? The first 30 or so seconds of FOol's Gold are awesome, and all the little guitar fills are pretty cool. It's just Monkey Boy who ruins it for everyone. If you got rid of all the bits where he's singing, it'd be a good song.

Well_Respected_Man 03-19-2005 08:15 PM

[B]Today I dag![/B]
A Certain Ratio

Iai 03-19-2005 08:16 PM

I haven't listened to Deftones in years.

Well_Respected_Man 03-19-2005 08:52 PM

I just listened to White Horse after not hearing it for awhile, it's shockingly good.

Swami 03-19-2005 09:13 PM

[I]White [B]Pony[/B][/I] maybe?

Well_Respected_Man 03-19-2005 09:15 PM

Good album, White PONY

Swami 03-19-2005 09:24 PM

Really?

Different band?

Crazy, (non-existent)drug loving bastard.
