The Kids Are FailingTo Keep Music Evil

Fake Fer Ark

That was quick

Are they any good?

You sound like the sort who rates Los Campesinos?
Any great?

The Trashies have some excellent odes to child neglect and itchy social diseases that give me hope for the children of tomorrow.

the nu-pigfuck

Marilyn Manson used to scare parents. He was probably the last rocker to achieve this correctly.

The only people who can possibly be scared by "rock" music these days are senior citizens. Everyone else has grown up with music that was supposed to scare grownups, and they are much harder to scare. So why not just give up that project forever?

I was being slightly tongue in cheek their Geir. I mean, pretending to be satan is just plain ridiculous.

I suppose I'm referencing bands that are not chasing fame, not part of 'a scene' . Xhuxk above has kind of nailed it with that link above. Don't worry, it's stuff you will have no interest in. Maybe find it a bit 'scary'

Second these Trashies. Defunkt now, but I think they still make their entire discography (three stolen Spits songs parading as sixty) available for free download. Miss em good.

SEX VID! And gah yeah but almost about everything in that pigfuck thread. Truths told, I can't make up my mind about the more straightforward AmRep clones (ala Pissed Jeans, Clockcleaner). I go back an forth. Sometimes I think it's too much angry muscle, not enough retard slop. HOMOSTUPIDS!

i'd say the seeds for the phenomenom in the thread title were plant somewhere circa 1995 - the end of grunge, "touch & go" arent what they used to be,low fi and twee bands are the big thing in indie, "evil bands" going deeper into the margins, lots of them are boring.

Maybe I need a good therapist? Maybe I should stick to Mark E Smith

evil is paris hilton singles and rabid hannah montana.

corporate zombies with lip gloss.

http://www.myspace.com/aluktodolo check out "disease"... that's some proper scary crap right there. (pretty interesting music also.) reminds me of the tumult/no quarter scene... skingraft with less humor.

i can't imagine kids taking that seriously. you'd need some nasty rumors... like that tale of pj harvey taking a dump in the middle of the audience at a nick cave show.

paris needs to follow the locust's lead and sell coke mirrors make up kits at her concerts...

this would drive a lot of homophobe parents INSANE! they're catchy too. (in a snarky camp happy hardcore kind of way.)

Human Eye
Sioux City Pete & the Beggars
Rusted Shut
Today is the Day

The "too much angry muscle, not enough retard slop" comment is too true, too often (though I like both Pissed Jeans and Clockcleaner quite a lot) for modern angry stuff.

Jay Reatard's increasing fame has got to be a good sign.

Though I guess SC Pete, Steve Austin, and the Rusted Shut dudes probably don't qualify as kids anymore...

i'd say the seeds for the phenomenom in the thread title were plant somewhere circa 1995

I'd say the seeds for the thread title are in the author's head. I remember people saying the same thing in '86 ("big black's not scary, listen to spk"), in '89 (lydia lunch review of pussy galore in fe was like "o these kids"), in '95 ("touch n go's alright, but not like it was back in the 80s"), etc. there's usually good evil music around, but it's in some local scene or so underground you hear about it years later.

in providence alone there's:
white mice
tinsel teeth (more sleazy than scary but definitely rocking the pigfuck vibe)
vvltvre
teenage waistband
snake apartment
suffering bastard
landed

not sure if they're still around but veronica lipgloss & the evil eyes (terrible name) did a great album a few years back.

also, seriously terrorizing / antagonizing the audience usually falls into the the domain of the pure noise crowd nowadays.

could anything be more fucking boring and banal and embarassing and played the fuck out than the concept of musicians being evil?

i think we're talking about how the music sounds, not the musicians, important distinction

could anything be more fucking boring and banal and embarassing and played the fuck out than the concept of musicians being evil?

Not if you're into it.

the white mice are perfectly nice guys when they're not donning radioactive rodent heads and blasting out 160 dbs of scarifying scuzz.

OK, could anything be more fucking boring and banal and embarassing and played the fuck out than the concept of music being evil?

Yes, the concept of people being too serious.

one and the same

but point taken - funny evil gets a pass, serious evil = zzzzzzzzzzzzz.

how is your argument different than

OK, could anything be more fucking boring and banal and embarassing and played the fuck out than the concept of horror movies?

horror movies don't wear leather pants and eyeliner

This is why we need more bands like Flipper!

...and the Feederz!

horror movies don't wear leather pants and eyeliner

yeah neither do these guys

http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y176/edwardiii/p2.jpg

they're not taking themselves seriously but they make some seriously evil music. if their music was that easy to laugh off, I probably wouldn't listen to it.

this awesome band was at the top of evil as evil can be:

at least the evilist and dirtiest garage band ever.

"horror movies don't wear leather pants and eyeliner"

do any of these bands? think it's been established that dude's not looking for Alice Cooper/Marilyn Manson evil.

dont forget the dwarves:

no pants is the ultimate extension of the logic of leather pants (as discovered by jim morrison, the patron saint of boring-ass evil rock music)

Marilyn Manson used to scare parents. He was probably the last rocker to achieve this correctly.

O rly? Marilyn Manson Now Going Door-To-Door Trying To Shock People

don't think these guys are wearing eyeliner
