There is probably no chance of me being able to buy this without spending like twice as much as I would ever otherwise pay for an album is there :(
― neden magnet (DJ Mencap), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 16:22 (fourteen years ago) link
damn that skinhead tune is unstoppable
using "$ VIRAL $" is bs tho, that was a song under a different name (i forget what -- there's a few difft version of several songs) that he apparently renamed for maximum youtubage. ah maybe it's better that way.

* As requested by Tonetta, whom currently does not appear livehimself, a band has been formed to represent and perform as him. Lead by Brooks Nielsen, lead singer of The Growlers, under the direction and guidance of Tonetta himself, a selection of unheard songs as well as tracks from the record will be performed.
This is the first in what we hope to be many theatrical live apperances from Tonetta.

Also LP is ready and black tent has been putting some new utube jams up. "it's a sin" is really good.
― Bangelo, Monday, 31 May 2010 15:47 (fourteen years ago) link
Oh man, a Tonetta approved representative band?!?!?! This is brilliant! It's like when Prince gave us the Time!
― Fetchboy, Monday, 31 May 2010 16:37 (fourteen years ago) link
OK this record arrived in the mail today, I have now had the appropriate numbers of beers (3) and am putting it on.
Nice silkscreen action, and hand numbering is always a nice touch. 18 songs!
LP also includes a CD of the LP in a color sleeve, plus color insert with amazing photos.
tracklist is two songs more than listed above, adding "A REALLY BIG COCK" and 'RED WHITE MALE".
sound is good, seems like the same recordings.
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:10 (fourteen years ago) link
holy shit it says "recorded by Tonetta 1983-2009"!!!
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:11 (fourteen years ago) link
A++++ liveblog, keep it, uh.... coming?

WHY WHY DO I SUFFER
GOD TREATS YOU RIGHT

wow obviously I haven't seen enough of the Youtubes because my mind is boggled at the photo with the skull face and the photo with the long blond wig
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:28 (fourteen years ago) link
I think all of the Thank You credits are to Youtube channels
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:29 (fourteen years ago) link
how did I never listen to $10 Axe before, this rules
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:32 (fourteen years ago) link
now the sensitive side of Tonetta with "I'll Remain As I Am"
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:34 (fourteen years ago) link
OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
PISS AND SHIT
NO ONE GIVES A FUCK ANYMORE
this is his "Smells Like Teen Spirit" imo except it's the first track on side 2 instead of the leadoff.
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:36 (fourteen years ago) link
man $VIRAL$ followed by DRUGS SRUGS DRUGS is a winning combo
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:38 (fourteen years ago) link
uh DRUGS
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:39 (fourteen years ago) link
PEEPING TOM is another "how did I not hear this one before" moment, unbelievable lyrics
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:44 (fourteen years ago) link
psyched that $viral$ is on there, need to order this
― underwater, please (bear, bear, bear), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:45 (fourteen years ago) link
guitar distortion sounds great on BELIEVE ME PEOPLE
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:48 (fourteen years ago) link
LP is limited to 500 btw, dunno about the CD
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:49 (fourteen years ago) link
oh it's not RED WHITE MALE it's RED WHITE AND BLUE which is uhhhh
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:53 (fourteen years ago) link
YOU GOT TOO MUCH is A+ party jam and I think it's clean as well (listening for that because I do a daytime radio show and I really want to play this)
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:56 (fourteen years ago) link
putting the "Get Back" quote into "Toronto Is Starting To Stink" works much better near the end of the LP, sequencing as a whole is really good here.
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 1 June 2010 23:58 (fourteen years ago) link
... and having DEVIL DEVIL come last proves that point
I think this is my favorite record of the year so far.
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Wednesday, 2 June 2010 00:00 (fourteen years ago) link
i really am not down with a 20 buck cd, but i might make an exception.
― forksclovetofu, Wednesday, 2 June 2010 04:41 (fourteen years ago) link
just buy the LP, only 5 bucks more and you get a 12"x12" color insert and a CD
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Wednesday, 2 June 2010 04:52 (fourteen years ago) link
this seriously owns
#1 record of the year, and i don't even know what #2 is
― Sandwiches That You Will Like.(2002).XviD.torrent (govern yourself accordingly), Tuesday, 8 June 2010 03:24 (fourteen years ago) link
"red white and blue" is a crucial add to side 2 of this
keep wishing "pump it" or "it's all bullshit" were on it, but beggars can't be choosers etc
― Sandwiches That You Will Like.(2002).XviD.torrent (govern yourself accordingly), Tuesday, 8 June 2010 03:26 (fourteen years ago) link
I laid this on a good friend and co-DJ with no info, he said it reminded him of some of Kim Fowley's solo stuff ("except more foul-mouthed"). on reflection, that totally makes sense.
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 8 June 2010 03:52 (fourteen years ago) link
hittin the big time

maybe during safe harbor hours?
― 69, Wednesday, 23 June 2010 18:46 (fourteen years ago) link
Think I'll just hedge my bets and play "Still a Slave."My station doesn't really believe in safe harbor, buncha paranoids.
― Trip Maker, Wednesday, 23 June 2010 20:01 (fourteen years ago) link
even with a disclaimer cart? that IS paranoid...
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Wednesday, 23 June 2010 21:14 (fourteen years ago) link
also, "Peeping Tom" is airsafe, only has the word "crap".
