Music Shit / Re: Lou Reed: Dead
« on: October 31, 2013, 08:15:11 AM »
Meanwhile, no one can validate Lou Reed as etc.  Just as a personality.  Cool.  Fuck you guys.  Eulogies should be an earnest assessment.  Especially for a public figure.  But this is church, I guess.  How comfy.

What are you talking about? Is this even English? Since when does Lou Reed (or anyone for that matter) need validation from some dorks on a message board. I get it, you don't like his solo work. I do. I was listening to Street Hassle a couple days before he died. I enjoy his solo work. So do a lot of my friends.

I too love his solo work.  I heard VU and Nico first, but then the next thing I heard was this weird dj release pressing thing that had a couple of tracks off Rock And Roll Animal and The Blue Mask.  For some reason, Average Guy stood out most of all to my hungry, twisted 14 year old brain.

I appreciate this is all coming from the guy that wrote "Process Of Weeding out".  I suppose I may have just been weeded by this stink bomb of a cover.

The new cover is beneath contempt.  Looks like one of them there finger drawings done on a smart phone while sitting at the bar.

Welcome To Action Island.  It's a 7" comp that featured the first GG Allin song I ever got the privilege to hear.  The tune "I Wanna Suck Your Cunt" changed my life.  My love of GG has brought me many, many fantastic things.  Friendships, artistic inspirations, etc...
Hell, I wrote and drew an entire comic book about my obsession with GG.

I love stories of decline, and this one's a whopper.

Music Shit / Re: Factory Floor wtf?
« on: September 13, 2013, 10:05:46 AM »
Maybe P-fork can convince you:

"On their impressive debut album for DFA, London's Factory Floor exist along an axis of artists that embrace industrial, post-punk, disco, acid, avant-garde minimalism, electro, dub and-- most crucially-- the dancefloor, without being beholden to any one genre."

Fucking priceless.  This can not be real.

Music Shit / Re: Long VICE article about cassette tapes
« on: September 05, 2013, 11:37:53 AM »
Simply put releasing music on cassette circa now is trendy.  "Like OMG, on CASSETTE?  That's like soooo funny."  The fact that Urbane Outfitters is getting in on it now just proves me point.

Hammering on one riff. Like a slightly sped up Drunks With Guns... though they may actually predate DWG. Punk as fuck.

Drunks With Guns was mid to late 80s.

Absolutely LOVE Flush The Fashion, and Zipper Catches Skin.  Interesting output from a talented guy interested in reinventing himself.  Special Forces feels anemic compared to those, and Da Da kinda sucks.  The title track is good and creepy though.  After that?  Garbage.  A song here and there, but virtually useless.  Read Dick Wagner's book last year...kinda fun, kinda boring.  It came with two discs of pathetic solo material.

Iggy's had ups and downs for decades, but this REALLY stinks.  A "bad" Iggy record from the 80's is still 300 times better than this. A bad Iggy record from the 90's will at least have a couple of good tunes on it.  By the way....how are those french records?
