Brain Police Beyond The Wasteland

PS: we must obey is the last CD I bought without listening to it first. Since then, I promised myself never to buy a record without having listened to it for at least two weeks straight :) Translation: the latest work by Fu Manchu is terrible; I doubt the next one will redeem the band's honor, but hoping for it doesn’t cost anything.

@jurix: I remember downloading it right from stonerobixx, but maybe I'm mistaken.

In conclusion: as far as I'm concerned, knowing music doesn't mean knowing all the underground, obscure bands paraded on this site that make you look cool. But rather knowing how to give the right value to the things we listen to. I find myself reading dozens of reviews of Sunn O))) (whom I adore) and no one has the courage to say that they always do the same stuff, no one, everyone just gives them ratings close to five, because if you listen to Sunn O))), who nobody cares about, you’re cool, or they exalt Windy and Carl (whom I also love, mind you) as inventors of something, when in fact Earth and even Coil had already extensively experimented in the drone field. Well, there’s the possibility to appreciate Earth, Windy and Carl, Sunn O))), Coil, etc., without having to shit on Queen. By the way, the first thing I wrote in the incriminated comment was "Queen were never that great," but this isn’t understood by the radical chic user so eager to show off their diversity and superiority that they can't even follow four lines of commentary. I repeat, read carefully the last sentence you wrote, lux.

Lux, a piece of advice: read the last sentence you wrote, read it well, once, twice, a hundred times.
The two greatest hits are essential because they are songs that if you don't know about music, you might as well not speak. It's like not knowing, in the Italian scene, Battisti, which is a whole other story since Battisti makes me cringe. Then you claim that Mercury was tacky; Mercury, with the voice he had, could afford to do whatever he wanted, just as Tom Waits can sing the same note for 10 albums in a row as far as I'm concerned. Have you read somewhere that I consider the Queen the best band in history? That I adore them? No, but that doesn't mean they should disgust me, and it certainly doesn't mean they're less than one. I don't know, do you think Tokio Hotel and Queen are on the same level?

Queen have never been anything extraordinary. They are an "arena rock" band. A group that uses its music as a means to entertain the audience. Period. That doesn’t diminish the fact that the first two greatest hits are fundamental albums. Moreover, giving one to a band that boasts Mercury as its singer means understanding music about as much as a fly understands football. The album was written, if I remember correctly, largely to be the soundtrack for the movie Highlander, and even though it’s a little record in the history of music, it’s incredibly effective both in the tracks extracted as a soundtrack and as "Happy silly rock."

Cut off hardrock92's hands for comment 34 where he reveals the resolution of the first exceptional scene of the movie!

First! Absolutely thorough review, well done! They don't particularly excite me, but as you said, they're among the few doing classic stoner without sounding damn cheesy.
P.S.: but you might want to find a different informant than stonerobixxx every now and then ;)

District 9 was a load of crap to me (it starts with a very interesting idea only to end up in a cosmic Hollywood cliché. Inglourious Basterds is brilliant.
