There is no point in trying this if you don't like the music. That said, I did make some regrettable purchases in the past for this reason, which is how I reached my current conclusion. (regrettable purchase: having to buy all that weed to make his Led Zeppelin tolerable)

rong on 2 levels:

1) buying 'all that weed' is never a regrettable purchase
2) weed does not make zeppelin 'tolerable' it makes them perfect

Last month, in the Times, the white folk rocker Devendra Banhart declared his admiration for R. Kelly’s new R. & B. album “Double Up.” Thirty years ago, Banhart might have attempted to imitate R. Kelly’s perverse and feather-light soul. Now he’s just a fan.

A few years ago, on his blog, the white folk rocker John Darnielle declared his admiration for R. Kelly’s new R. & B. single “Ignition.” Thirty years ago, Darnielle might have attempted to imitate R. Kelly’s perverse and feather-light soul. Now he’s just a fan.

thirty years ago devendra would have the same manager and r. kelly still wouldn't exist

when was the ironic cover invented?

when linda ronstadt covered "lotta love?"

I thought that was Nicolette Larson. Rondstandt did "Alison," though.

whoa i think you're right. i'm RONG.

when was the ironic cover invented?

Peter Sellers - A Hard Day's Night (#14, December 1965)

I bet there was some orchestra before then who played ironic Classical covers to show their disdain for Vivaldi or sump'n.

that sellers jam is awesome, ditto "She Loves You"

that's the second time that's been mentioned here. Maybe I haven't heard enough Japanther. I used to see them live when they started playing around NY and it never did much for me. I really don't have much interest in a lot of the bands working various post-no wave revival skronk/noise craziness, and I like No Age's balance between the utterly accessible and often beautiful ambient partts, and the also utterly accessible and totally catchy minimalist hardcore punk riffing.

dude you are really bringing the hate to NO AGE.

is it a west coast thing, Chaki? I listen to No Age and the next day I'm singing all the words, I saw Japanther and the next day I'm like "did that guy use a telephone?"

Mayve Chaki's trying to fill us on on the fact that No Age don't really exist and have been taking listeners for a ride.

Maybe.

its just nice to be the first to say something bad about a band that sucks on ilx

i feel like im fighting the good fight

i admire your spirit, though.

although he is rong

about noage? really?

hmm i'm gonna have to check out this highly controversial band.

fine. go ahead and listen to the la japanther. psh.

heard 3 songs on myspace.

sound pretty good. sounds a lot more like indie rock than anyone seems to be admitting though. when everyone was saying hardcore craziness i was think like negative approach type shit or like does anyone remember wives from LA? they were awesome...

but yeah it's good, even if some of the rockin' parts remind me a lot more of the thermals than like black flag, but whatever.

i think noage are ex-wives

The BMRC show I had a free ticket for sucked so bad.

I kinda liked their first record but yeah I saw em live once and they suucccccked

The person who's threatened to kill me on the most occasions is a dude who had a Myspace where he raged against "bullshit mainstream mass-produced culture" and talked about how he only watched movies and listened to music that were challenging and provocative. BMRC were his favourite band, I think his favourite film was Amelie.

should i know what a BMRC is

They're like every other band from 2001 you've forgotten about

The B stands for "Bowel." I'll say no more.

its actually brmc (black rebel motorcycle club)

you dont need to know them

ohhh ok. my mom and little sister like them.

they just remind me how lame it must be to be british

I don't think they actually are british?

They're American

there was this britpop DJ at my college radio station who had lame hair, and the rumor was always that she slept with that dude. was his name royston langdon?

After the band dropped Elektra Records, Spacehog signed with upstart label Artemis Records and released its third album, The Hogyssey, on April 10, 2001. The album continued the band's neo-glam approach and featured the singles "I Want To Live" and "At Least I Got Laid", as well as a funkified version of Richard Strauss's "Also sprach Zarathustra".

yeah, and he's married to liv tyler!

dude you can't be more than like 2 years older than me, don't pull that generation gap shit! anyway early-mid 90's modern rock radio played a shitload of New Order, and "Blue Monday" was always my least favorite of their songs, before any tainting by Orgy (or Rihanna).

as far as I can tell the biggest 90's soundtrack "Blue Monday" was on is The Wedding Singer lol

most of my similarly-aged friends agree Orgy's version is better

kraftwerk thought new order's setup wuz "primative"

dude you can't be more than like 2 years older than me, don't pull that generation gap shit!

hey I probably only knew New Order's first because I grabbed a used cassette of substance back in middle school. Figured your tastes as a teen ran harder than that.

the alternative to your tastes being tainted by orgy is that you're just RONG about the song, sorry I gave the benefit of the doubt.

as far as NO on the radio goes, I never would have suggested you knew Frente first.

hey, i knew the frente version first! and yet, strangely, i am at peace with that fact

You were mad into Frente iirc

Tarantino does this all the time, inserting long stretches of innocuous conversational dialogue - it ratchets up the tension because the viewer is both being made to think of the characters as normal, average boring people while at the same time eagerly anticipating the conversation's end to get to the "action". It makes the punctuated scenes of violence more surprising and more engaging. Its called pacing.

thats weird.

How about Mp3 bloggers from Astoria

retroactive zing circa fall 2006??

why is it weird? i stopped watching it after the 2nd season cos the season finale was the lamest

season finale to this season was the best episode of the show yet

i duno you must expect too much. season 2 kinda sucked up season 3 was pretty amazing.

and HEROES just does not make a lick of sense.
just gimme any one of the L&O syndicates and i am a happy girl

heroes is shitty as fuck.

I made it thru season one on dvd but the finale sucked ass

"Native New Yorker" slams on the breaks of any disco comp (e.g. Rhino's Disco Queens: The '70s). That's cuz it's really TV theme music and even in that realm, it pales beside the likes of Good Times or Wonder Woman. If "Native New Yorker" is disco, then so is, oh I don't know, the theme from The Greatest American Hero (forget the actual title - "Believe or not I'm walking on air" blech!).

Yes. Vocals on it are perhaps the best I've heard from any rock singer.

this from an m.i.a./lcd soundsystem dickrider

The Boards of Canada are overrated by WATMM posters aka aspie rube shutins who obsessively collect VST plugins and have approximately 6 artists in their music collection not on warp or astralwerks.

yeah but when youre a mia/lcd/spoon/kanye dude you cant really talk shit about niche ambient dudes like that

they're all overrated...and i like them all!

well, maybe not spoon so much. zzzzz.

lcd, gah

haha see that's one i can kinda understand the hate for but i enjoy them for whatever reason nonetheless

talk about fakin the funk!

not denying it's a pretty blatant look-at-my-record-collection pastiche!

last night I got approached by some dude who was trying to sell people his self-produced bedroom hip hop record and his opening gambit was "do you like music?!?" thanks to ILX I was able to quickly quip "not since 1999"

Pretty sure if he tried to ride anyone's dick he'd break it.

and if anyone would know how much weight a man can take ...

time for keithjessmatos.jpeg

how the fuck can anyone hate on the boards of canada?

how can you haet on dingoes eating babies?

I so love when they do that, inspiring trials that make international catchphrases.

shakey mo par for the course on the zeppelin thread

dood. 'your love is king' slays a party if mixed into hiphop. she should put out an lp produced by dangermouse or timberlake/land.

Start w/ Dirty Dozen Brass Band, then maybe that SoulJazz comp of New Orleans funk. Lot of cross over I think. So far as current bands are concerned, not sure since the city barely exists anymore. Early Dr. John is worth checking too.

sockpuppet y/n?

it seriously makes me want to weep at how great this is, this must have been how peasants in the 1600s felt when they went to venice and saw a michaelangelo or raphael for the first time... i mean, i want to call it the perfect summer song, and it is, but its unbelieavle at any time, its just a perfect song full stop
