jhøshea, Thursday, 29 November 2007 19:08 (seventeen years ago)

so I just ordered the alec empire vs merzbow live at cbgbs 1998 album
I am so happy that it finally exists because it is going to probably be the one and only live album ever released that I can say I was there for
empire wore silver face paint and I talked to him afterwards
most of ATR and merzbow's lady friend who "sings" were also in attendance
I moshed

El Tomboto, Thursday, 29 November 2007 19:10 (seventeen years ago)

I completely agree with Omar. When you're with a group of people who understand that the point of moshing is not to hurt everyone around you, it can be fantastic.

The problem, of course, is that the only the thing average person sees in a mosh pit is a bunch of strange-looking people running into each other at what looks like full speed, so when they join in they have the impression that swinging fists and brutal body-checking is What You're Supposed To Do. Grr. The last time I moshed was at a Mr. Bungle show in 1992. I hyper-extended my left elbow. Never done it since.

The most inappropriate mosh pit I've seen was also in 1992 an an 808 State concert. "In Yer Face" came on and the dance floor essentially erupted into a full-on riot. I was having fun pinballing off of various people until I turned to my left and saw someone being punched repeatedly in the face. No kitty, that's a BAD KITTY.

Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Thursday, 29 November 2007 19:11 (seventeen years ago)

I agree with Otis, "Still Standing" sounds half finished and terrible and is nowhere near as good as any given Outkast album. GM's "Chain Swang" is probably my favorite song by either group, and Cee Lo might be the most charismatic rapper alive (I moshed with him at a Goodie Mob show years back while their band was riffing on "Iron Man"). I think Outkast makes better albums, and Goodie Mob made at least one better single, but isn't all that consistent. "Atliens" is the best album by either group, with either "Southernplaya..." or "Soul Food" second. I actually haven't heard much of "World Party" except for "Get Rich to This" and "Chain Swang".
