The one with Geb going nuts on the guitar and Bent behind the giant marching bass drum? Please post it, I’m giggling just thinking about it. Priceless!
Upstairs/Downstairs, Walkin’ With J, Never Let You Out and Stained Glass. (Yes, I had to look it up as I had forgotten about this and found it rather surprising myself.)
Re: the "what next?" discussion, I just had an epiphany: I would really, really love to hear a collaboration between Motorpsycho and Huun-Huur Tu (or Alash for that matter!). I just listened to Big Black Dog back to back with Tandym (they're in the same key and everything). How great wouldn't it be to hear those wonderful voices and sounds of Tuva backed by the "oomph" of MP?
Oh well, maybe it's just me.
@supernaut: That’s the closest they’ll ever get, I guess. Wouldn’t mind more oddballs like that one, though!
Quote:Beastie Boys og Cypress Hill er to rapnavn som dras fram. Aphex Twins er det eneste technonavnet de vil godkjenne. Snah synes annen techno blir for statisk – i hvert fall live. Han fÃ¥r bifall fra Bent:Techno har jeg ikke fÃ¥tt fot for enda. Jeg skjønte heller aldri Tangerine Dream, Kraftwerk og de gruppene der. Det har skorta pÃ¥ tid og lyst til Ã¥ utforske dette skikkelig. Og nÃ¥ da jeg oppdaga Sebadoh for noen uker sia… Men jeg ligger jo alltid noen Ã¥r etter, sÃ¥ om to Ã¥r oppdager jeg sikkert techno.
BEAT, 1994.
Quote:Per i dag er det ingen breakbeat i dette bandet, men vi vil ikke holde dørene stengt for de tingene der. Jævlig mye innen Hip-Hop-Funk er bra, elementer som godt kunne ha passet inn i det vi holder pÃ¥ med. Men det har det ennÃ¥ ikke gjort.Bent to Puls, 1995. Well, they’re not exactly rushing to it …
You might find comfort in this.
That’s not what happened, is it? Someone at Man’s Ruin leaked the songs online, which pissed MP and Stickman off. I seem to remember they called off the deal because of this, Man’s Ruin went on for a good while after this if I remember correctly.
I’m sure your heroic battle against decency and general likeability will be rewarded somehow, doglicksman. Maybe with a song or something.
I'm pretty sure The Other Anders has at least 13-14 countries under his belt, including Japan. Speaking of Japan, Akane's list is probably pretty impressive as well. Anyone seen her lately, or did she jump off the tour wagon years ago?
That's why we are here, and why we've got a million praise threads. Can't we have this one bitching thread where some of us discuss the .25 per cent of the entire MP discography we don't think as much of as the rest?
Songs of which early (live) versions were actally enjoyable, but then the band made some bad decisions and ruined them in the studio):
Fade To Grey
What If
Ratcatcher (Dora Peach was great!)
Star Star Star
Just unlistenable to these ears:
The Mirror and The Lie (Bent at his worst in every possible way)
Coventry Boy (mostly thanks to Snah's vocal performance)
L.T.E.C. (musically the evil cousin of Star Star Star, sans the greasy horns, and I just can't take Bent's delivery of the nasty, self-righteous lyrics)
