I'm voting Flight of the Wounded Locust because I think that's as sharp as they could get their original sound

Gabe switched to drums on that one iirc.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Friday, 10 June 2016 16:22 (nine years ago)

for those undecided, it's worth noting that the melt banana split allows you to listen to melt banana

Are the versions on the MB split the same as the ones on the Anti- record?

New Erections!!!! Fucking great record. Bummed they didn't do too much after that.

I remember when I was in 9th grade, I wore a Locust hoodie to school, and this senior came up to me and he was like "I heard they've had like 30 drummers...they just burn through them..."

Should be a voting option for the Jerry Springer episode with Justin and (iirc) Scott Bloodlink (screenshot above)

These guys sorta disappeared huh?

i saw the reunion at Fun Fun Fun and I think I really started to understand the Residents-grind they left off with

is it just me or is this thread not showing up on the main page?

flappy bird, Saturday, 11 June 2016 03:25 (nine years ago)

hmm... nvm

i have a fondness for the Arab on Radar split, and the 3" CDR I got at the Virgin Megastore in Times Square in 2007... god i accumulated so many Locust tchotchkes. But New Erections is the only piece of music I remember.

I like everything. But I was a teenager during the Vulcan era, so The Locust LP.

At an early show, I taped a paper bag to my head, wore huge paper mache crab claws, and wore a shirt that with "DIE VULKAN SKUM" on it. I was promptly kicked out for fighting. YOUTH.

Plague Soundscapes feels like what they were always building towards and they killed it with that one. My vote.

I recently broke out my old CD binder than hasn't been updated since like 2005 to play shit in my non-aux-jack-having car stereo. Looked wistfully at the totally useless Locust mini-cd's.

I love my Locust mini CDs! The Anti-remasters sound terrible and I know I'll always have a little thing that I have to actually play and can't rip in my frontload CD drive

hey whiney, the emojis in your thread title are affecting site new answers for zing users. we had this problem with a thread in the past and the only solution was to lock the thread and drop it from SNA. a proposed solution for you is to restart the poll and c&p the discussion from this thread into that one. I wanted to give you a heads up on that, so we can lock it some time soon and get things running smoothly again.

mod, Saturday, 11 June 2016 19:00 (nine years ago)

I don't really care, lock away

queen elseq of ærendelle (Whiney G. Weingarten), Saturday, 11 June 2016 19:05 (nine years ago)

cool, thanks.
