I keep hearing about this band, what do they sound like?

Also, I've been digging Against Me! - Acoustic EP.

Pere Ubu is a mega weird post-punk band. Their music tends to be unbelievably "nervy" and awkward to the point of often being annoying. I don't actually like them very much.

They have a great bottom end though.

For Decay:

David Thomas' vocals are not for everyone but if you happen to like them upon the first listen you'll be hooked. Their first 3 LPs are where it's at and if you can find their first EPs you'll be set.

I can dig some of [I]The Modern Dance[/I], but [I]Dub Housing[/I] makes me vomit.

Dog 11-01-2005 07:32 PM

I love Thomas' vocals; they're a big strongpoint for Pere Ubu in my eyes. [I]The Modern Dance[/I] > all.

JonM 11-01-2005 08:39 PM

Primal Scream. Tell me you guys know this band. Oh my gosh. The 1990s have just been redefined for me.

Iai 11-01-2005 08:43 PM

Of course we know Primal Scream, they're the ultimate retirement home for rock stars who've exhausted their potential in other bands.

I'd say the same except that I absolutely love [I]The Modern Dance[/I], but I don't like [I]Dub Housing[/I] as much as it.

Actually that is nothing like your statement.
