GET A GRIP ON YOURSELF

I, Mr. Sneer Joy (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 15 February 2011 16:50 (fourteen years ago)

also lol @ Rentals

I, Mr. Sneer Joy (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 15 February 2011 16:50 (fourteen years ago)

The word "wank" isn't a swear in the US, I take it?

Elmer Fuiud (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 15 February 2011 16:52 (fourteen years ago)

Wank may refer to:

WANK (computer worm), a computer worm that attacked DEC VAX/VMS systems through DECnet in 1989
WANK (FM), a radio station (99.9 FM) licensed to Lafayette, Florida, United States
Wank (mountain), a German mountain close to the Austrian border
Wank (sexual act), sexual stimulation apart from intercourse (masturbation)
Wank (surname), a surname
Wank (food), a chinese dumpling

Mark G, Tuesday, 15 February 2011 16:54 (fourteen years ago)

well it's not like "FUCK", but in the US its normal connotation is masturbation

I, Mr. Sneer Joy (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 15 February 2011 16:55 (fourteen years ago)

I'm sure they're far from the worst but I don't see how I can't vote for a band called Wank.

Elmer Fuiud (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 15 February 2011 16:55 (fourteen years ago)

Summercamp - Pure Juice (1997)

Oh shit, I think I remember liking this. But I'll be damned if I can remember now what it even sounds like.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 15 February 2011 16:56 (fourteen years ago)

xpost I tracked down a track listing, but it's too dull to repost.

Same here. Pretty sure I bought that for like 50 cents from a bargain bin once.

No idea what it sounds like now though.

What a weird, weird roster. It seems like something John Varvatos might put together.

I secretly really like Ben Jelen's music.

Peter Pepsi (Abbbottt), Tuesday, 15 February 2011 18:44 (fourteen years ago)

This is a v weird roster tho. I haven't thought about Baxter in forever.

Peter Pepsi (Abbbottt), Tuesday, 15 February 2011 18:46 (fourteen years ago)

how the hell did this company stay in business

Per Wikipedia:

Maverick has had noted triumphs with acts such as Alanis Morissette, Michelle Branch, The Prodigy, Candlebox, Venezuelan pop-rock singer Douglas Vale and the band Deftones. The label also had success with soundtracks for The Wedding Singer, Jackie Brown and The Matrix. In addition, Quentin Tarantino’s A Band Apart imprint is distributed by Maverick.

Idgi Pop (KMS), Tuesday, 15 February 2011 19:19 (fourteen years ago)

Pls note: Shifty is the solo project of shifty shellshock from Crazytown

O_o-O_0-o_O (jjjusten), Tuesday, 15 February 2011 19:25 (fourteen years ago)

However there is also candlebox so

O_o-O_0-o_O (jjjusten), Tuesday, 15 February 2011 19:54 (fourteen years ago)

Unloco was dreadful and derivitive but Candlebox wins for being dreadful and derivitive longer.

if you seriously think alanis is the worst of this list i doubt you've heard anything but her from it

ooma boogy wow wow (electricsound), Tuesday, 22 February 2011 00:03 (fourteen years ago)

I can't believe 4 people voted for Meshell Ndegeocello! You seriously think her Maverick albums are worse than Alanis, Love Spit Love, "Wank", or that terrible William Orbit classical LP?!

Tuomas, Tuesday, 22 February 2011 00:09 (fourteen years ago)

i nearly voted for her just cos I knew you'd have an eppy

Nulty By Nature (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 22 February 2011 00:10 (fourteen years ago)

Summercamp! I've always wanted to hear the rest of "Pure Juice" but as of the past 14 years the only song I know from them is "Drawer."

billstevejim, Tuesday, 22 February 2011 00:20 (fourteen years ago)

Yay, another one I got right!
