Melvins Discussion / Re: Iggy Pop's and Mike Patton's Story

« on: April 15, 2014, 05:08:42 PM »

Buzz then said that the reason that Iggy is a hero to him is that he wouldn't play for an audience that liked Weezer.

this is the same guy who ended having people from sum 41 + green day on the skull ring album, right?

Excellent point.  I'm really tired of people slagging off commercial bands.  Far too easy a target.  I saw Iggy Pop playing some fashion show where he's doing his writhing dance on a catwalk while dead eyed models strolled around him.  He also advertises insurance.
Throughout my life I have enjoyed music by Weezer, Melvins and Iggy Pop.  Simple as that.

I love Karl Pilkington but hate Ricky Gervais.  The animated show should not be called 'The Ricky Gervais show' as it's Karl who provides all the humour.

I've never seen or held an 8 track.  I used cassettes well into the 90s.  I buy cds only now.  Might get into vinyl sometime but don't understand all the rpm 180 gram stuff.
It's good that you talk a lot.  I have a phobia of people who don't talk.  It's good that you're enthusiastic about things.

remaster? naw, a simple Re-release will suffice.

you get what you pay for. generally speaking, I guess who cares, but...

naw, They'll compress the SHIT outta it, It won't work.

honestly read about the "loudness war"

and tell me you're willing to put up with something that is going analog to Digital mastering now a days.

It's not the same to me. did you know if a record was pressed too loud in spots the needle would ACTUALLY skip out of the grooves?

LISTEN to how quiet Bullhead is on CD compared to anything new like shrinebuilder for example.

they'll try to make it louder, you got a volume knob doncha? it was recorded one way, with one set of ears. hopefully someone can do some engineering magic. but it's never the same, not even going to get pressed at the same place and yadda yadda, ok, bottom line, go for it and I will still buy It pretty much, I will have to compare it to the original cassette mastering and LP mastering and original CD mastering.

ah-I'm going off the bridge.

you can't win, everything mastered through digital now.

it's such a terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible shame.

Digital, booooo!!!

Long live ANALOG!

I love your posts.  They're so detailed.  Are you like this in real life when you talk?

Something from Entombed Wolverine blues would really suit Melvin's style I think.

Haven't heard it yet.  Will it be released on cd? This is bulls and bees right? I'm way behind.

I'd genuinely love a Danzig and  Melvins collaboration.  People slag me for my love of Danzig but no amount of man boob, small man syndrome jokes about the Mighty Glenn will ever stop me listening to his music.

What if the Melvins literally split Justin Bieber?  Buzz grabs one arm, Dale the other, same thing with the big biz guys and each leg then they walk in opposite directions using all their might until Bieber tears right up the middle.

My collection is the exact same.  All the cds, no vinyl, no rare stuff, no tshirts or posters.  I have the 2 dvds too.  I'm not into collecting vinyl. Cds are good enough for me.
