ILx "first mentions"

scott p. wrote this on thread "indie listening" on board I Love Music on 16-Jan-2002

If "cool" is a socially agreed-upon thing, why assign "cool" as the indie cache, unless the culture at large really does sort of see indie-ness as cool?
I imagine if the culture saw it as cool, NMH or whomever would sell a few more records. The label is self-assigned, that is my problem with it and part of my disenchantment with approaching music with "indie ears."

(I really should be on [nabisco]'s "side" here, I feel -- damn indie guilt -- but authenticity > all else is one aspect of indiedom that I can't defend.)

Also, I'm totally loving Matt and Sockpuppet's picks (my picks contingent on Sockpuppet's validity).

Do they have a facebook thingy? Also they may have some type of student registry thing so that security knows what all of the students who live there look like.

It's not moderator tampering that's the issue there - it's user tampering. As you know, I have actually coded the thing that and waht is asking for (a 'suggest ban' button that clocks up votes and then just automatically bans someone when the votes reach a certain level). I agree with you though, it would all go wrong really quickly.

on the misogynist rapper tip, i always loved Public Enemy, yet Eminem leaves me feeling stale and cold- chalk that one up to the backing tracks. acts like the Beastie Boys got better with age not just because they matured, but as they matured they seemed to care a hell of a lot more about their fanbase.

i thought the UNKLE album was disappointing mainly because of the songs- while i enjoy DJ Shadow, he is not UNKLE. it showed on this album. also, while i like a lot of Mo'Wax records, their scene seems too clique-ish, too hipper-than-thou, much like Nigo's Bathing Ape clothing line, which as an eternal Planet of the Apes fan, i love.

Don't hold back, Ally; tell us how you really feel.

I must say, I'm somewhat surprised to discover that someone else doesn't understand the fascination with the lead singer. I mean, she has a decent voice but she is rather emphatically NOT all that. Most people I know who talk about them talk about her as being the best part of the band. YIKES. Musically, I find them infinitely more intersting. when they're doing bluegrass stuff. I saw a "Behind The Music"-style program on them and their rise to fame and the old clips where they were a four-piece that wore unabashedly tacky Grand Ole Opry-style spanglewear and did ferocious bluegrass were easily the most enjoyable parts of the program.

Had they broken into the mainstream with their bluegrass stuff, they'd be a classic. As it stands, I sometimes have problems telling them apart from The Corrs. DUD.

I would heartily recommend a Scottish novelist called Alan Warner. 'Morvern Caller', 'These Demented Lands' and 'The Sopranos' are all works of peerless genius. Especially 'The Sopranos'. His thick Scottish dialect can be a little tricksy at first, but stay with it and you'll be richly rewarded.

nabisco wrote this on thread Whats in yr fridge ? on board I Love Everything on Jul 25, 2002
Hahaha that was funny when Ellie said "man."

I would answer the question, but I've stopped using the fridge due to proliferation of roommate's rotting items, most of which were foul even before they began rotting. There could be stacks of cash in there, the smell still wouldn't be worth opening the door. By way of explanation, the roommate has been doing nothing all summer apart from lying around with no shirt on, sweating on my previously- white couch; his primary entertainment has been finding new markets at which to buy food, then making the food, eating three bites, and putting the remainder, uncovered, in what I'll very charitably still describe as a fridge. I would desperately like to do something about this, but unlike the roommate I actually work during the day and often see friends at night, meaning I have neither the time nor the energy to bother about it. My only recourse is bitching, which I don't enjoy doing -- so I don't. It was nice knowing you, fridge. Remember when we had the mashed-up tropical fruit to cook the salmon in? Yeah, yeah, good times.
