09.02.17 | butcher/beegee's redemption arc starts now???? |
bgillesp
09.02.17 | Will Nick Cave etc- The Firstborn is Dead count? |
Papa Universe
09.02.17 | Define "made it big", please and thank you. |
Frippertronics
09.02.17 | Firstborn will do
Unique what do you think it means? Come on now. |
Papa Universe
09.02.17 | I mean, a lot of musicians made it big right after their debut record, but as of making it and subsequently releasing it, they were nobodies. Bands like Pavement have never made it big, but became classics over time and are huge now. |
Frippertronics
09.02.17 | That works too, although groups like Todd Rundgren's Nazz is an example |
butcherboy
09.03.17 | the one I have in mind only released one EP and some live bootlegs.. will that do? |
Frippertronics
09.03.17 | ye boi |
butcherboy
09.03.17 | Alright, my rec are the Neon Boys, who would go on to become Television and Richard Hell and the Voidoids.. I can drop you their stuff if you can't find it on Youtube, as it gets taken down quite regularly |
Frippertronics
09.03.17 | i could look it up on soulseek, but what's the EP / bootleg in question you'd want me to go for? |
Papa Universe
09.03.17 | It's your turn to fuck around with me. |
Papa Universe
09.03.17 | What is the penalty for recommending a previously recommended band? |
Frippertronics
09.03.17 | let's see what you have prepared, dear universe |
Frippertronics
09.03.17 | none! |
Papa Universe
09.03.17 | I shall put my hopes into your being a man of honesty and displaying your musical experience pallette in Ratings section clearly, thus I may assume that Elliott Smith's Roman Candle has slipped your attention. Is that so? |
Frippertronics
09.03.17 | that is the sole Elliott record I haven't heard to be quite honest
listening to his records are a once-in-a-blue-moon experience for me, so I shall put your rec into the round |
Papa Universe
09.03.17 | Eureka! |
Frippertronics
09.03.17 | i just don't have it in me to torture you peeps
yet, at least - provided the other two don't drop the ball and hand you your fourth win |
butcherboy
09.03.17 | The EP that's in the database (albeit without a cover) should contain the two early songs that I believe will put me over the top if you know the bands it spurred.. If not, Television with Patti Smith live shows are essentially these Neon Boys.. |
Frippertronics
09.03.17 | got ya
i'll add the cover although i believe the site's ability to update stuff is going down the shitter |
butcherboy
09.03.17 | Yea, I believe my attempt to add the cover is in the queue.. |
Frippertronics
09.03.17 | just in case, i've added it as well
back in the reviewing kind of mood, so i may be focused more on specific albums so the quick hiatus from this game is needed tbh |
butcherboy
09.03.17 | Be nice to see more of your writing up, Fripp |
Frippertronics
09.03.17 | if i keep it up, maybe i'll actually have enough motivation to write something i wanted to write a while ago but had no time to properly think of anything to go off of
plus it'd be a fucking monolithic review by my standards (the type of review i do like once a year, if the Blackstar/Pet Sounds/Fun House pattern is anything to go off of) |
butcherboy
09.03.17 | Well, shit.. I'm sold.. do it!! |
Frippertronics
09.03.17 | plus it's a classical release so that adds upon the amount of pressure i've got on myself. the plan was to make sure i could thoroughly remember the plot/motifs/ideas of the source material (since the recording is a score to my all-time favorite film, one that's been a part of my life since the age of 5, so close to fifteen years now since I first seen the movie). Plus, the film itself is sourced from a novel that was made specifically to explain the plot in more detail to its director and to the audience. Lots and lots of details, but so little time. |
Frippertronics
09.03.17 | but do it? damn right i'll do, it'll have to happen eventually although if i had it done by its 90th anniversary back in March it would've been perfectly timed, but oh well, i was occupied with other matters. |
butcherboy
09.03.17 | Just fucking do it, ya nonce!!! |
Frippertronics
09.03.17 | not
