"middle eastern-tinged hard rock"

oh I'm not pretending this song could exist in a "Kashmir"-free world

Bush to thread, better that the rest, green to red, Bush to thread.

"Greedy Fly" and "Swallowed" off Razorblade Suitcase were both pretty big in my high school, tho. And I remember seeing a video for the "Mouth" remix on MTV.

I still think "Machine Head" & "Everything Zen" (& "Glycerine"!!!!) (on the Tonight Show!!!!) lapped those Albini-abetted bad boys from Razorblade Suitcase. And the remix from the Julia Delpy werewolf flick.

yes, but growing up in SE PA, these guys were so dudly they willed themselves classic. they wouldn't stop touring the area! and the mythology surrounding them was ridiculous.

so what yer saying, then, is that live were THE HOOTERS of the 90s?!?

oh dear god - i had a hand-me-down hooters tee shirt. i wish i knew what happened to it (i'd be so sad if i lost it) - and my mom went to high school with john oates (north penn represent).

Live were like having a local, Orwellian Dave Matthews Band - omnipresent and always dudly.

"Swallowed" has aged surprisingly well. I still prefer Sixteen Stone to Nevermind (except for Polly), I guess I was two years too young for Nirvana to really hit me (but was just right for the pretenders to the throne).

this thread has become...cumbersome.

Don't get it twisted, Bill - it was ROCK RADIO'S FASCINATION W/ GRUNGE'S MESSIAH COMPLEX IN TOTO that paved the way for Creed.

I agree. And if it wasn't for DMX there'd be no Ja Rule, but I still enjoy "Get At Me Dog".

Beavis & Butt-head watching "I Alone" was pretty classic, where they're talking about how the drummer forgot to bring his sticks so he has to just run around like a jackass through the whole video.

Actually he had the sticks, but no drums, so he kind of air drummed with the sticks, I think.

he did!!! and the singer was bald with the one long braid in the back!

Are you sure you aren't thinking of INXS?

― Jeff Reguilon (Talent Explosion), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 16:55 (8 years ago) Permalink

He's thinking of Journey.

actually he had NOTHING. he just hopped around like a jackass in slo-mo mouthing along with the chorus. supposedly thought the video was really heavy and improved by seeing their reserved drummer go apeshit but Live has to rationalize a lot of idiocy to keep from blowing their heads off. Me and my sister used to count the amount of times Ed K. touches his head in that video. He clearly wasn't used to the bald pate.

― miccio (miccio), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 20:18 (8 years ago) Permalink

The hair growing back was UPSETTING him! He was trying to keep the hairs DOWN!

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 20:21 (8 years ago) Permalink

Or he was stoned. My once clean-shaven pate was palmed by some stoned chicks in college. It was grooovy. Then I went back to reading High Society. Well, skimming, really. Almost sorta like ogling.

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 20:22 (8 years ago) Permalink

the video was directed by Tim Pope.

there's a brief part involving candles and a tree.

― miccio (miccio), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 20:24 (8 years ago) Permalink

Was the tree on fire?

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 20:25 (8 years ago) Permalink

i think it was plastic

― miccio (miccio), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 20:26 (8 years ago) Permalink

That doesn't answer my question!

"Is it raining outside?" "No, I had spaghetti."

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 20:27 (8 years ago) Permalink

no it was just the guys holding candles around the tree. there was no flaming tree. it was just a tree.

― miccio (miccio), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 20:33 (8 years ago) Permalink

i'm surprised no one has mentioned "the dam at otter creek" yet ... that used to be one of my favorite live tunes.

is that where all the water backed up?

DEEEEEP ENOUGH TO DIIIIIIVE!

― AaronK (AaronK), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 20:45 (8 years ago) Permalink

indeed. all that's left to do is to reflect on what's been done.

so profound!

― rajeev (rajeev), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 20:57 (8 years ago) Permalink

i am so guilty.

White, Discussion was the one that I thought was tolerable, at least at first.

Indeed.

I still like "T.B.D." or whatever it was called. And I sort of still like "Operation Spirit."

And I still think they were an odd choice for that 120 Minutes tour with PIL, BAD II and Blind Melon. One of the weirdest packages tours ever, I think.

― billstevejim, Thursday, 17 March 2005 03:36 (8 years ago) Permalink

lol.
growing up in SC PA held enough Live as well as SE.
i managed to "see them" 3 times without really ever thinking about it, always played with other local acts i was there to see...

thankfully, little, if any, stuck.

but...i knowed fellers...!

OMG this thread has me weeping with laughter.

2 months pass...

Turns out I might have been wrong about this song.

Or at least that opening riff. It's awesome. The rest is still kinda dreadful. But wonderful? I dunno, it's terribly confusing.

BURN MY EYYYYYYYYES

This song is a stone-cold bonafide 100% classic in every possible sense of the word "classic".

everyone in high school called this album Secret Sodomy

-- miccio (miccio), Monday, March 14, 2005 8:32 PM (3 years ago)

Two best consecutive comments ever.

Best Live song, hands down

― Whiney G. Weingarten, Wednesday, 20 August 2008 17:13 (4 years ago) Permalink

i just almost c&p'd the Secret Sodomy post 5 minutes ago

― some dude, Wednesday, 20 August 2008 17:13 (4 years ago) Permalink

Classic for sure. My favorite Live single and it sort of sounds like Helmet ~~if they were dynamic and not boring.~~

I like that bit in "Lightning Crashes" where he's like "the angel opens her ahehyeeaheeeyehyaheyes"!
