yeah!

This was my favorite Versus song back in the day. I don't know that they've aged all that well. Like Small Factory, they were kind of great in a particular place and time, outside of that...not so much.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrVtTwWlw-4

i was looking at some old SPIN issues on Google reader and the writer in there tears apart that Fudge album, the one with the really grotesquely 90's cover.
it's pretty decent though

Oops, missed this revive. That Fudge album is great. "Drive" is all time.

the guys from the band sediment club brought a ton of 90's guitar rock to my store this year. i just like guitars and since regular rock doesn't really exist anymore, i will take all the dino/seb/helium action people want to throw out there.

just a big ol' stew of 70's/80's/90's/Now in that clip.
Ha, for sure! I liked that they played "Thorn" at that show as well.
What do you mean "regular rock"? I have my own idea, but...

Taxidermists is pretty great! The slow parts sounded like Codeine.

Toenut became Tyro and made an album, Audiocards. I wanted to hear it. It isn't ANYWHERE online so I had to buy the CD. This is the first time I've HAD to buy a CD in what seems like an age.
Anyway, Audiocards arrived today and it's completely wonderful and maybe only a few hundred people ever heard it idk. SO GREAT

I can't find my Pest 5000 CD :(
― Evan, Friday, 10 June 2016 01:19 (eight years ago) link
It's springtime so I'm injecting the 80s/90s jangle indie into my veins again
― Evan, Friday, 15 May 2020 21:10 (four years ago) link
And wtf I lost my Pest 5000 CD as of 2016? I totally forgot. It's gotta be around somewhere...
― Evan, Friday, 15 May 2020 21:11 (four years ago) link
I have both, which one are you missing?
― Inadequate grass (morrisp), Friday, 15 May 2020 21:15 (four years ago) link
Both as in the lp and compilation? I have a digital copy of the lp but for sure need the compilation!
― Evan, Friday, 15 May 2020 21:34 (four years ago) link
Palimpsest? OK — DM me your address, and I’ll mail it to you (when conditions are once again favorable for mailing things).

is this the thread with the most Further talk or is it on The Summer Hits thread(s)?
...because I heard Dinosaur Jr's 1997 non-album single "Take a Run at the Sun" and holy shit, that is such a late-era Further song.
― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Wednesday, 20 May 2020 17:46 (four years ago) link
Hey I'm down to talk Further all day. I'll have to check out that Dino Jr song... interesting to hear a sentiment where the tables turned involving those two bands.
― Evan, Wednesday, 20 May 2020 18:31 (four years ago) link
I know, that's what's so surprising, it sounds like one of Brent's songs from 1995-1996. But it's also pretty-atypical Dinosaur Jr I should add, it was recorded for an Alison Anders film and then released on its own, kinda sunny beach pop. I'd never heard it before today (I fell off the DJr bus around Where Ya Been).
