Random Music Talk LXXXVII: Which one of you called my church?

[IWasBored]

It's the phenomena where if you're not having certain songs or bands shoved down your throat 20 times a day, you don't find them anywhere near as unbearable. Like how many '90's and 00's "alternative / indie rock" loving Americans loved / still love Brit Pop bands that were essentially the British equivalent of Matchbox 20.

This is true. And it's a big part of why the radio sucks and ruins everything.


I will continue to be baffled, though, by the fact that the sublime cover band in 2013 is still a bigger draw at particular local-ish establishments than some of the other actual bands I've seen at the same places.

Ashley is that Sublime who sang that "early in the morning, rising to my feet..." tune? I love that song, it was on Dave Mirra BMX on PS1.

Love that song.

Am excited to see the band, too. Fuck da h8rs

I've never heard any of their other songs. I just have cool memories of doing tricks on Dave Mirra BMX to What I Got.

There's no way you don't know Santeria.

Yeah, it's "What I Got."

You mean the one that ripped off the vocal melody from Lady Madonna?

 

[martha]

Damn. That Stone Smoked Porter is some powerful shit.
I've never heard any Sublime. Apparently I should be somewhat ok with that.

 

[Imperor]

Sublime and their ilk (Pepper) are some of the most godawful popular music ever.

 

[martha]

Ok then.

 

[Jive Turkey]

I've got one of those friends that shits on the modern music I listen to, yet he's stuck in the 90s. 2 years ago, he went and saw a 'sublime' concert..... 2 years ago. went and saw a sublime concert. 2 years ago. shits on the music I listen to.

 

[martha]

Fuck him then.

 

[Jive Turkey]

indeed

 

[Jive Turkey]

Right now I should be putting on cologne in preparation for the big date, but instead I'm not doing that because I got stood up

 

[Jive Turkey]

I was also all like "Oh, I know, I'll go watch Monday Night Football". Then I realized how you guys on the west coast get shafted for that sort of thing

 

[No spoken words]

I should vomit in your eye.

 

[iron yuppie]

They're an awful band.

Yes, yes they are.

 

[Jive Turkey]

I should vomit in your eye.

Well you've already vomited all over my heart

 

[No spoken words]

You should eat here:

Redondo Beach Cafe - a family style restaurant and sports cafe in Redondo Beach California

Lots of Canadian fucks congregate here, and they eat Moose or Eskimo cakes and poutine, etc.

Something about the phrasing of this made me burst out laughing.

I'm just going to sit here and eat a pint of icecream

Thanks, I try...for whatever it's worth, I speak like this in real life. I'm like a fucking neanderthal cab driver or something.

Will you need a 2nd pint for the blow up doll?

 

[cobl04]

There's no way you don't know Santeria.

Just listening to it now. Never heard it. It's boring and it sucks.

 

[Jive Turkey]

All the way across the country for naught. I'm just going to leave this here and go watch He's Not That Into You.

I just don't feel that much like havering tonight anymore anyway

 

[bono_212]

Well that's a surprise.

Also, you suck...


all of you do.

 

[IWasBored]

Damn. That Stone Smoked Porter is some powerful shit.

If by powerful you mean delicious, yes.

 

[IWasBored]

Well that's a surprise.

all of you do.

It would be more of a surprise if it was anyone other than cobbler. Because it's cobbler, I'm less surprised.

 

[trojanchick99]

One of the myriad of reasons I hate our local alt station, KROQ is that they still play the hell out of Sublime and have them play their radio shows. It's 2013 for goodness sake.

 

[LemonMelon]

Brit Pop bands that were essentially the British equivalent of Matchbox 20.

Definitely Maybe, Different Class, Parklife, Only In It For the Money and Dog Man Star say hello.

 

[Jive Turkey]

Any of you know a thing or two about computers? I'm pretty sure my MacBook pro just died (blaming nsw). I was online, then I got funny pink horizontal lines everywhere on the screen. I did a hard shut down, now it boots to a "you need to shut down your computer" kernel panic screen. It won't boot to safe mode either, but does seem to boot to the hard disc storage mode (not sure what it's called). I have no way to test if that mode works, however.
Am I screwed?

 

[Jive Turkey]

Definitely Maybe, Different Class, Parklife, Only In It For the Money and Dog Man Star say hello.

No

 

[LemonMelon]

No

I'm not agreeing with Scumbo here btw

Good bands don't start being shitty, they just become a less appealing shade of good.
