Title: Matt Lukin on GPT
Post by: doug fisher on February 25, 2004, 11:34:30 PM
Did Matt Lukin really sing backup vocals on that album?  In the cd insert (I have the Ipecac version) it says "bass and vocals" for him, i'm not sure if it's a typo because I thought that back then Dale was the only one who sang back-ups.

Isn't that Matt singing the line

"Peel the skin away from my eyes and look in"

on "As It Was"?

I asked about that too! It just doesn't sound like Buzz.

Dale has always been the backup singer. saw and met these lads in the summer of 86 in Chapel Hill. They cleared the entire punkfest, which only meant that they were awesome. Matt was in the band then, and he was cool-no singing duties, though. they opened up for themselves and called themselves SOCIETY SKATE YOUTH PATROL and played covers of Sabbath, Kiss, and a few others that NO ONE CARED ABOUT IN 1986! It was cool;. then they played their originals & really kicked ass, alienating all of the punkers and making me a brand new big fan. Still am, by the way.
so yeah, all of the backup stuff is Dale.

I'm sorry but you are wrong.  That is absolutely without a doubt Matt Lukin singing "peel the skin..." on GPT.

Whoever said this is "absolutely without a doubt" deaf. It's Dale singing "peel the skin away from my eyes".  If that's not obvious, you probably agree with the lyrics posted by that Rene person (and that is not good).

I've always thought Matt sang "peel the skin" but it could have been someone else. I SEVERELY doubt it, but I could be wrong. Besides, does it matter? Vocals are vocals. Either way GPT is one of their best and to me that's all that matters. If it was all instrumental I would be totally cool with that.

That's a hardcore patience you have there. I'm guessing Matt did sing on GPT. A bit.

I thought the conclusion was that it didn't matter who did the bitch vocals on GPT, As long as you like the album you should be ignorant of who is doing what.
yeah. right?
