SP-404/Casio/guitar pedals on a table music is like no-comply variation skating. Ya it's cute but don't over do it.

J Mascis’ side jawns are better than Dinosaur Jr.

it must be crazy when chico sells you something and the tables switch from "give me my money chico" to "giving my money to chico"

Heard about The Growlers many years ago. Mostly whenever people talked bad about them. Just started listening to their catalog on shuffle. Love this band

Same with Lou Barlow's side/solo projects.

This is funny. No comply skating is still way cooler though.

as long as ISPY is one of them, I’m down with that!

Edit: Also, I feel like your statement is true for most smaller music “scenes” no? Like I could literally replace the word “hardcore” with say “emo” or “power violence” and it would still be true in most cases or sub-genres.

I do not disagree.

I can’t hang, personally. There are a smattering of classics (Bad Brains, Minor Threat, maybe a bit of Disrupt), but by and large it does nothing for me.

But yes, I-Spy is on my list, and I’m trying to get my sis to dig the CD out for me (stored at her place) and bring it when we have a family reunion later on this year. She’s religious, so I’m dreading the convo.

“Yeah, it’s called um, Perversity is Spreading. Yeah. PerVERSity. It’s got a pic of Pope John Paul on it. No, it’s not Christian Rock. It’s got a bunch of colored kids shitting on his head. Yes. Shitting. Feces. On the Pope’ face. Yeah. I know. It’s a joke. Edgy humor.
Listen, can you look for it and bring it?”

Grimes's Visions is the most important record of the last 20 years. That's not unpopular though I think pitchfork said it.
Also not exactly music but that one guy from $alem has influenced fashion the most in the last decade

They’re like Disney channel doing a supposed hardcore band.
agreed they remind me of brockhampton or something

Thanks for posting this. I'll have to cheap it out.  ;D

Yeah recommend some of his side stuff to check out?

I like D Jr. alright, but they never really clicked with me the way they seem to have with a lot of other skaters

i disagree wholeheartedly with everyone in here regarding Lou Barlow (especially) and/or any of J Mascis' "side jawns"--nothing compares to the body of music created by Dinosaur Jr

i definitely dig Sebadoh, but it's not even close

@Deputy Wendell I definitely get that.

I still love the first few DJ albums a ton, and some tracks off later albums + some solo J mascis.

Sebadoh just clicked really hard at one point in my life and I went down that barlow rabbit hole super deep and ended up loving the sloppy lofi endearing quality they have. I have grown to love the old eric gaffney tracks and a lot of the j lowenstein stuff. plus loobie writes some excellent lyrics imo

cheers @Huell Howser ... i don't think i ever made it too far down the aforementioned rabbit hole, but as i mention above, i still love this album...case(s) in point

Living All Over Me (and to a degree, Bug) are godhead, but Sebadoh is by far a better band and Lou is a better songwriter (I am still a big fan of anything J. Mascis does).

Did anyone watch the Dino Jr documentary on apple?  It was entertaining but strange.... it seemed like J. Mascis had a hand in making it because it never mentions his notoriously asshole-ish behavior and makes Lou Barlow out to be the real problem of the band.

I don't know that that is a terribly unpopular opinion.

 You and the D00D have turned this thread into a horrible head-on-collision between a short bus full of regular kids and a van full of paraplegics.

Red Hot Chili Peppers are overrated as fuck. Dani California sucks. Without Jimi Hendrix or parliament/funkadelic, the Red Hot Chili Peppers would be 'the Mild Green Bell Peppers'. That being said, they have some bangers and they can perform well so there's that.

I fucking hate RHCHP, along with Coldplay the most overrated mainstream band. If I ever head Anthony Kiedis saying something about California, I will go deaf.

I liked Mother‘s Milk and even Blood Sugar Sex Magic but from then on it went downhill.

All this new HXC is borderline pop music. It’s this gen’s pop punk revival.

Not sure if it’s due to time or what, but “Strangers to Ourselves” by Modest Mouse isn’t as terrible as people make it out to be.

While he had some great lyrics, I’ve finally accepted that I really don’t like Talib Kweli’s flow.  It’s always overstuffed.
