King Buzzo - This Machine Kills Artists

[meezer]

How about Mike Ness? I've always wondered if Buzz would call him out, for never paying Mackie for designing the Social Distortion logo.

New River
The Ripping Driving
The Spoiled Brat
Useless King Of The Punks


= Fucking Awesome

Yeah totally, these are stand out tracks. Useless King Of The Punks is one of the catchiest songs Buzz has ever written. I think my favorite is Instrument Of God, though.

Yep. I'd pick these three!


Laid Back Walking
Drunken Baby
Instrument Of God

Another song I think is really great is The Vulgar Joke. I'm surprised I forgot to mention that one.

i can't  follow your discussion until my copy hasn't arrived

Sorry mate. Im sure you'll get your copy soon. I respect that approach and wish i had such will power. In fact it's been years since i brought an album i hadn't already heard online. 'This Machine...' isn't even released over here until this Monday either. Then i'll wait three weeks or so for the price to drop on Amazon so i won't be getting mine for about another month yet! 

no problem,i was joking. feel free to post whatever you want. to be honest this is not part of my approach...just this time i decided to not check the stream of the album before to have the physical copy. anyway, so far i've heard four songs

My favorite is "Useless King of the Punks." What do you guys think that song is about? I've got an idea- and it's the most obvious idea, so it is probably wrong.

Cobain seems like a likely contender. 

The guys name is 'King' Buzzo, could he maybe be taking a self-deprecating shot at himself??? as the
useless 'King' of the Punks ... Perhaps???

[anaconda]

I thought Lydon too, but knowing how much Buzz admires
him and his music from all eras it didn't seem plausible.
Mind you, Lydon was referred to as 'king of the punks'
back in the '77 punk days. Hmmmmmmm.

Are you sure about that? keep in mind that the original price during the pre-order was around 14 bucks and now is $11.99.

if it hasn't been done yet, does anyone plan on transcribing the lyrics?

the booklet has a lot of negative space so I'd like to write them in there but unfortunately I've always been horrible at understanding lyrics. I'll give you an example although maybe I didn't do too bad.

There's a magic drunken lord
Filled with paper dolly mimen(?)
Watch it go down

And why do we let them speak their song
And they'll tell you why you're wrong
And how do you when it's gone

When they're getting what they're given
Then there won't be drunken ladies
Watch it fall down

Stallion, order from Japan next time, it might arrive sooner.

[Androol]

  are those the lyrics in japanese?

[jules]

are those the lyrics in japanese?

Wouldn't that be awesome? It's a history of King Buzzo in Japanese, I think.

[meezer]

are those the lyrics in japanese?

Simple, learn Japanese and find out.

I noticed at the very end of the album you can hear what sounds like a modular.

You think he's going to do another album like this one and have it only his Make Noise modular?
