― gygax! (gygax!), Thursday, 27 January 2005 16:57 (twenty-one years ago)

you have some story about REASONABLY FAMOUS RECORD LABEL PERSON playing you Dizzee or something? I don't know.

― .ada.m. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 27 January 2005 16:58 (twenty-one years ago)

But did you really hear Dizzee? No, I don't think so.

― .ada.m. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 27 January 2005 16:59 (twenty-one years ago)

I first heard Dizzee on the Roll Deep mix of The Streets-"Let's Push Thing Forward", obviously. I'm sure REASONABLY FAMOUS RECORD LABEL PERSON was taking notes.

― hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 27 January 2005 18:24 (twenty-one years ago)

grew up on 'electro' and kraftwerk and alla dat shit

bought Talk Talk's Spirit of Eden when it first came out. I'd already loved them thanks to "Life's What You Make It". never really dug the very earliest stuff tho.

saw Nirvana on the Bleach tour in a club, Channing on drums.

bought the first Mountain Goats single when it came out

etc

PH3AR teh cred

― Stormy Davis (diamond), Thursday, 27 January 2005 18:44 (twenty-one years ago)

stormy diamond, what do you make of the career parallels between the flaming lips and the mountain goats?

― gygax! (gygax!), Thursday, 27 January 2005 18:46 (twenty-one years ago)

I LIKE THE MUSICAL OUTFIT "HIVEMIND"

― Ian John50n (orion), Thursday, 27 January 2005 19:58 (twenty-one years ago)

Career parallels -- hmmm. Are there any, g!?

Other than .. folks that have been around for a long time with a dedicated set of fans ... and then suddenly get better distribution and a bunch of hack critics are all over their jock? Is that what you mean? That's the only parallel I can think of. I'm tres happy for J0hn though.

― Stormy Davis (diamond), Thursday, 27 January 2005 20:30 (twenty-one years ago)

you nailed it!

― gygax! (gygax!), Thursday, 27 January 2005 20:40 (twenty-one years ago)

The Flaming Lips' production benefitted from their deal with Warners.

― adam.r.l. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 27 January 2005 20:46 (twenty-one years ago)

THE FLAMING LIPS WOULD BENEFIT FROM A BAND MEETING FOLLOWED BY BAND BREAK-UP.

OR AT LEAST I'D BENEFIT...AND THATS ALL THAT COUNTS REALLY.

― ddb (ddb), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:06 (twenty-one years ago)

not really, did you ever hear Hit To Death In The Future Head?

― gygax! (gygax!), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:07 (twenty-one years ago)

That's the record I'm talking about!

― adam.r.l. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:09 (twenty-one years ago)

Hold Your Head?

― adam.r.l. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:10 (twenty-one years ago)

the early stuff is good loopy rock music.

that "She Don't Use Jelly" thing really bogued my high though.

― Stormy Davis (diamond), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:11 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, the early stuff is great but the great stuff that they did on a major label (and there is some) is markedly different and great in a different way probably because of more $$$ and studio time. Not that more $$$ and studio time are a guarantee of anything, but I think that is what happened there.

― adam.r.l. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:15 (twenty-one years ago)

tell us more!

― gygax! (gygax!), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:16 (twenty-one years ago)

uh...i had one of their early lps (the oh my gawd etc. lp) and it was really mediocre.

― Tim Ellison (Tim Ellison), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:18 (twenty-one years ago)

YES I HEARD HIT TO DEATH...MIDDLE ROAD AT BEST. THE 10 MINUTE NOISE PART AT THE END IS FUN.

PLAY ONE BUTTHOLE SURFERS RECORD. I RECOMMEND REMBRANDT PUSSYHORSE.

ID PAY $5 DOLLARS TO HEAR GUYGAX SLAG A CRITICALLY BIG UP'D ALBUM.

PAYPAL?

― ddb (ddb), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:20 (twenty-one years ago)

I like The Flaming Lips A LOT. If this renders me noize-bored-bannable, SO BE IT.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:22 (twenty-one years ago)

BIG & RICH

― Site Admistrator (deangulberry), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:23 (twenty-one years ago)

CHUCK 3DDY ISNT A CRITIC, HE'S JUST CROTCHETY AND SELF IMPORTANT...OH WAIT.

what did everyone like before the noiseboard hive mind?

― charltonlido (gareth), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:27 (twenty-one years ago)

THE 10 MINUTE NOISE PART AT THE END IS FUN.

you mean: 30 minute!!!?!?!?!?

i used to like that Bobby Brown record you like Gareth! I had 2 copies and gave them both away!

― gygax! (gygax!), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:28 (twenty-one years ago)

OK 30 MINUTE.

― ddb (ddb), Thursday, 27 January 2005 21:31 (twenty-one years ago)

you guys are missing my point: i'm not trying to commend the flaming lips, just comparing their weird career path to the mountain goats.

(i think maybe soul asylum falls in this category as well, but on 2nd thought maybe not so apt... okay, here's a better one: the goo-goo dolls.)

i would like to note once more that ILM's anti-"corny indietude" has once again mass-regressed in the face of a new mount'n goats lp!

― charltonlido (gareth), Wednesday, 1 June 2005 17:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Indie rock is not the problem with ILM, indie guilt is.

― gygax! (gygax!), Wednesday, 1 June 2005 17:49 (twenty-one years ago)

but they all love indie! i dont see any indie guilt at all!

― charltonlido (gareth), Wednesday, 1 June 2005 17:51 (twenty-one years ago)

haha search "indie guilt" on google and click result #2

― Gear! (can Jung shill it, Mu?) (Gear!), Wednesday, 1 June 2005 17:54 (twenty-one years ago)

In the summer of 94' the dwindle boys left their comfy homes in St. Paul, Minnesota to record five songs with Tim Green at his basement studio in Olympia, Washington.

Oh, or were you talking about MATTHEW FLUXINGTON'S barbelith post?

There was a MASSIVE ironic post by Matthew on the Nickalicious liking Bright Eyes' faux-"Masters Of War" on Leno.

My top 5 for 2002 was pretty right on in retrospect.

Occasionally, ILXors reference other boards that they're on, something with a link. In general, I don't understand how some of the more prolific posters have time for ILX, let alone other boards.
