Music Shit / Re: Whatever happened to The Donnas?
« on: January 26, 2022, 04:39:07 PM »They also got fat which is a problem when they based their early albums on college frat girl sexappeal. Didn't one guy from Supercharger "create" their teenage image with the first album and taught 'em to play?

Non-Music Shit / Re: Michael Caine says he's retiring from acting
« on: October 16, 2021, 04:23:33 AM »thanx for all the fun, Caine, GET CARTER is the greatest british movie everha, that reminds me of the time in 2001 my friend max and i got into a hotel elevator that michael caine was already in. now, its us and micheal caine heading down to the lobby. so max says hello and tells him what a big fan he is, to which michael caine smiles and thanks him. then max gushes “i just wanna say that ‘get carter’ is one of the best movies ever made!” this time michael caine stares straight ahead. no sound. no gesture. nothing. nada. its feeling fucking awkward in that lift and poor max has turned bright red. when we get to the lobby a few seconds or half an eternity later. nobody speaks and m. caine walks off towards his entourage. while we head out the door and onto the street where max’s embarrassment turns to anger “fucking michael caine what a fucking prick...” and i crack up laughing.

« on: October 11, 2021, 01:50:01 PM »Graham Lambkin, 'Softly Softly Copy Copy' off the Penultimate Press' 'Solos' box set.http://www.freeformfreakout.com/fffoxy-podcast-87-graham-lambkin/
I'm thinking I'd love for somebody smarter than me to explain to me why I enjoy Lambkin's work so much. It doesn't really make a lot of sense as far as music goes but I just found myself loving it over the course of the last year, especially on headphones. The booklet that comes with the box set contains very interesting insight, has someone ever done anything like a podcast about him? Could be cool.
BTW: It's a shame there aren't cheap Shadow Ring represses out there.

« on: September 30, 2021, 04:26:56 AM »Yeah, Kneeling In Piss is excellent. Perfectly carrying the Columbus torch.thanks, that video is cool. really liked the whole vibe with the cut up shitty green screen stuff and that simple understated drumming. didn't like the recorded stuff i listened to as much. very difficult to capture that stuff any other way but live.
A friend just tipped me off to the glue huffing dumb-smart degeneracy of Hattiesburg's MSPaint after having caught their set at Gonerfest. I just sat through the whole thirteen minute video on their Bandcamp page and I could not tell you the last time I was able to do that. Which is probably more a testament to my ever-dwindling attention span and the rapidity of information consumption than a commentary on the current musical landscape, but also the video and the music contained therein is fucking excellent. Catchy but not poppy, knuckledragging but not mean, etc.

Music Shit / Re: What Are You Listening To And What Do You Have To Say About it? PART VI
« on: September 30, 2021, 04:15:26 AM »Sam Esh & Hard Black Thing – Montezuma Baby Duck (SILTBREEZE 1994). Just the kind of weirdo, repetitive skronk that you'd expect from Siltbreeze, like a slightly more "musical" Shadow Ring or The Fugs if they made a full album like their hit "Nothing". With some art by Graham Lambkin and percussions by Mike Rep.that sam esh record is a long time late night favourite. so fucking great.
Also everything by Kneeling In Piss from Ohio, which reminds me of Wireheads and no-fi K records type stuff in general.
listened to death church by rudimentary peni for the first time in a long time. best anarcho band by a long shot for my money.
only other thing i've listened to lately is a bunch of cabaret voltaire cause of r.h.kirk r.i.p. like everything they did up to 2 x 45 not familiar with anything much after that.

Music Shit / Re: Is this the worst Stooges cover you have ever heard?
« on: September 06, 2021, 08:28:31 PM »I love the guitar interplay between Roland S. Howard and Mick Harvey, and think their rhythm section is tremendous, but can't stand to listen to Nick Cave.just about sums it up. i got got everything from prayers on fire thru to mutiny as they came out and was into them. but even towards the end of that run n.cave was starting to grate on me. his whole new wave perry como schtick ever since has been nothing short of nauseating.

has anyone mentioned the birthday party's 'loose' off the 'drunk on the popes blood' live thing. even tho i burned out on that band of private school toffs over thirty years ago, i remember that as being pretty good.

« on: September 06, 2021, 03:34:03 PM »I seem to remember hearing that same story about Ann, but maybe it was here previously from you...Definitely one of the best since they recast the song in their own style.nah, wasn't me. all their covers are completely recast in their style. cooper s is a master class in that shit.
as jared said, that album of ridiculous trios stooges covers is great. only need to hear one or two of them at a time tho https://youtu.be/LMG2tE99o-o

« on: September 06, 2021, 03:23:54 PM »maybe so...but being old enuf to have been around when that stuff was coming out and being played to saturation point. if i never hear another one of their syrupy mini dramas again, it'll still be too fucking soon.
Two new (great) ABBA tunes!
https://www.theguardian.com/music/2021/sep/02/abbas-new-songs-reviewed-a-perky-moving-return-to-pops-highest-peaks?
Abba sucks then, now and forever
ABBA has at least one great song on every one of their albums. Wildly varied and inconsistent band, but plenty of quality tunes in their catalog.

« on: September 04, 2021, 02:06:45 AM »That Hard to Beat dbl-LP comp out of Oz in the 80s certainly helped kick-off Stoogemania. Best track?if i remember correctly, feedtime only did that stooge cover on 'hard to beat' because somebody asked if they wanted to submit something. they said they didn't know the stooges, but if there was a song none of the other bands wanted to do they would have a go at it...and so they learnt 'ann' just for that comp. then later tacked it on the end of side two of cooper-s.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4DA79vLMvE
i saw them literally like a hundred times '82 - '89 and while they regularly played plenty of covers (see cooper-s) personally i can't ever remember hearing them play 'ann' not even once. if i were smart enuf to do a venn diagram of the stoogemania thing in aus 'radio birdman' would sit right smack bang in the centre. where as feedtime would be in the hard groove blues rock venn diagram with 'rose tattoo' at its centre.
i don't know if people these days realise (if they were to think about such things at all) what complete outsiders feedtime were to the whole aus underground scene in the '80s and '90s. they were so far removed from most of it they may as well have been on another planet.

seemed like every second band in aus did an obligatory stooge cover in the '80s and they were pretty much all shit, but few were as shitty as this...wish i could unsee it more than unhear it tho. ugh yuck!
