Welcome to the boards Ro Rock(sorry I can`t do that thing on the o);I think your the first South American on this site,I don`t remember seeing any other people from there.
Hopefully J will play Brazil someday and you can get to see him.Watt is making a Organ/bass/drum record?,sounds like a jazz organ trio;that should be cool.
Why would J want to see the Black Crowes?The album that PJ Harvey song is from is from 1992;the Shellac single that song is from 1993 I think but maybe 92;so it`s pretty close time frame of what came first.
Shellac rerecorded that song in 94 on their debut album.I was hoping when I posted this back in June that everyone would be talking about their alien encounters.
Nope,Allison`s was the only response.
Anyone have any strange stories to tell?
I have a good ghost story for halloween.Thought up another song comparison;
Shellac`s`The Admiral` and PJ Harvey`s `Victory` sound incredibly alike;the bass line is almost exact.
But since Shellac`s Steve Albini and PJ harvey dated around the same time of those tunes they knew each other was ripping each other off.
I wonder who wrote what first?
Harvey I think.Thanks for that Allison;I like the Red House Painters mention;my fav album so far this year is the Red House Painters album-Old Ramon;pretty slow stuff mostly but I`m into it.
Funny that J never heard of them,but that`s J.
Like the puff daddy mention about J being happy that Jennifer dumped him;he did`nt like J`s remix?guess he should stick to working with Jimmy Page.
I also dig the My Bloody Crazy Horse tag.Hope you liked the Eric`s Trip show;tell me about it in the open topic section when you get a chance.Eric`s Trip has some videos at launch so check that out.
I saw a Rein Sanction video this morning,I think this was the band our own fellow freakscene member dfkgurl used to manage and promote;they kinda sound like dinosaur so everyone here should check out that video.
Yo La Tengo`s video for `Sugarcube` is pretty funny;it`s YLT at rock and roll school,one of the teachers has Kiss makeup on!I like the part when Ira holds up a picture of Lou Reed and the teacher chucks something at him.Their video for `Tom Courtnay is good as well,it`s YLT opening for the reunited Beatles.
One of the videos I did`nt like too much was Cat Power`s`Cross Bone Style`;it looks like a Gap commercial.Corin had her baby last March,named Marshall.
Corin`s side project is Cadallaca;Carrie `s is The Spells;Janet also plays in Quasi.Jaron-did you buy those albums recently because I mentioned them just last week and you said nothing about them;I guess though we don`t always talk about all the bands we listen to here,but I guess it`s surprising when someone mentions something you did`nt know they liked;I like tons of bands so I don`t always mention them unless someone here talks about them.
Women can so play rock and roll,Sleater proves that as well as many other bands,such as the Raincoats.I first got into SK around April 1997,I had a cold and was up late listening to the radio and the show I was listening to was doing a profile on them,they played their previous bands;Heavens To Betsy and Excuse 17;I heard H2B before,one song I heard a few years earlier was good;anyway I loved the profile and went out and try to find one of their albums,there was none around until a months later when Dig Me Out popped up,bought it and with listening to the songs realized it was the best album of the year.
Bought the other albums the next year when they came available.
I agree with Halfman that SK has the emotional aspect that J has in his music,always a good quality in music;I think of SK of being like a female Husker Du,Corin is kind of like Bob Mould;singing with all the passion and guts,communicating to the nth degree of what she is feeling.
It seems when J can`t say what he`s feeling with his voice he lets his guitar do the talking.Muck
That`s a cool tune,kinda mainstreamy funky song.
I`m Insane
How could anyone not like the trumpet in that?
On The Run
From Martin And Me,Greg Sage tune;very cool.Good choices Allison and Matt;you thought up most of my choices.
Yeah that Grant video was Nova Mob.
They have a Saints video there,they do have some Michelle Gun Elephant,2 Bob Mould videos and all the Sugar videos.
quite alot of cool stuff there,everyone should check it out and fine their favs there.I guess I should have mentioned where to find any SK mp3`s;Killrockstars.com,Matadoreurope.com,epitonic.com,and fastmusic.com have some.
For live stuff mp3.palukaville.net have an entire concert,the sound is`nt too good but at Sleater Kinney.org have some better sounding live material.
By all means buy their albums;Sleater Kinney,Call The Doctor,Dig Me Out,The Hot Rock,and All Hands On The Bad One.
I`ll suggest to you to buy Dig Me Out or Call The Doctor first.I would`nt worry about him,he`s problably on vacation or taking a vacation from this site.I`m sure he`ll be back by the end of the week.
