boredom

When asked why he continued to be an insurance agent instead of trying to live off his art, Ives replied that this way music remained a passion rather than a profession. Maximum respect for the reviewed and the review, then.

As always, Superanima is outstanding. I remember the Hindu Love Gods, which means Warren Zevon + Peter Buck, Mike Mills, and Bill Berry (I think the album was from '87). I can't confirm it, but considering that Peter Buck is known for being an avid record collector, I wouldn't rule out the possibility that they used the single by the Lipstick Killers as a business name. If Chris Dejardins had a hand in it, I’ll be searching for this album.

Few but excellent comments. Dopesmoker: as far as I know, this is their debut, but previously Ween had released a series of tapes. Thanks to everyone who participated and also to those who read without commenting.

It is thanks to pages like this that Debaser deserves to be read.

Max, you are an asshole.

A friend who played with him around Europe described him as a really great person. Beautiful page, Bob.

I'm reading Educazione di una canaglia. really great.

"Amid the commercial crap that's out there and has been in the past decade, Coldplay are truly awesome." Reading you like this, it seems like it's all about crap, and coprophilia interested me (maybe) when I was an infant, not now. I don't feel like starting a dialogue about the fundamental issues; it seems to me that the difference between commercial - mainstream and "alternative (whatever that means)" is much more nuanced today than it was 20 years ago. What does that mean? Just to stick to the last ten years, I don't agree with your assessment. Sure, the past decade is far inferior to both the '80s and the '90s, but there's still something decent out there - I'm thinking of the National, Fleet Foxes, Arcade Fire (here's a band capable of producing both commercial and quality stuff). Next time be clearer, get to the point, and we'll save ourselves the explanations. Regards.
