MTV Buzz Bin: Volume 1 - The Zen of Buzz Clips: From a Guy Named Buzz

The grunge pedal is now made by digitech the parent company of dod and can be yours for 49.95 please do not all rush into the store at once

Uh oh does that count as deploying inside knowledge in a condescending way

will it give me the DGC sound? Because I want the DGC sound.

def heard "Stop Choppin'" more often on college radio than "Feel the Pain"

lol jj

there must be some difference between mtv and college radio, let me think real hard

The grunge pedal is only trumped by the death metal pedal which was specifically designed not to have a knob to turn the amount of distortion down from the "all of it all the time" setting

Whiney hedged his bets by putting "new artists" in quotes, not sure what criteria is being used to designate "new" tbh

I have no memory of when I first became aware of the Gin Blossoms. It's possible it was earlier (Request Video - respeck knuckles) but I don't really remember.

Of course I mean, "new to MTV" stop being an Algerian Goalkeeper about this

stop being so defensive, whiney! You know these threads are often an excuse to discuss other related maters.

"new to MTV" = 120 Minutes and Headbanger's Ball don't count...?

you hipster, of course your hipster ghettos don't count

Headbanger's Ball was a hipster ghetto?

how heavy are those goalposts btw

you're out of your element, shakey. that element being mtv has known to kids who didn't get to stay up late on school nights.

as known

lol oh god i very much remember seeing 'hey jealousy' on mtv late at night and being like 'whoa awesome who was that!!"

This reminds me of when I heard and enjoyed "Hey Hey What Can I Say" on that Led Zep tribute album, Encomium and then rushed out to buy the Hootie and the Blowfish album. Um.

Shakey gtfo of this thread

hahahaha deric

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

xp IIRC Weezer was a buzz clip at least 3 times (Sweater, Buddy Holly and El Scorcho)

also in 1994 lots of kids (like me) were dumb and didnt know any dinosaur jr songs until "feel the pain"

whether it was a corporate scheme or not, it exposed people to decent music they wouldnt have heard otherwise.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

There's an odd double bill. If I never hear the Gin Blossoms again it will still be too soon.

Apparently Hey Man Nice Shot is way worse than either Zombie or WWYS

i figured g.bloss would landslide so i switched my vote to danzig at the last second.

thank you.

man...

top half of this poll really is the top half, tho, even if its out of order

Whoa dude did you just say something less-than-disparaging about a Radiohead song?

Hey Man Nice Shot at least has a good Wikipedia entry.

My band does a passable cover of HMNS

We've never played it live but if we do, I'm gonna see if I can get my lead singer to introduce it as 'nobody's favorite song'
