that's rufus's dad's fault though -- and loudon is a pretty odd name too.

Child Abuse, anyone?

Whenever I think about Tame Impala now, I always get mild lols with Ilxor's pic post in my head.

Umphrey's McGee seconded, if it's been mentioned. If not, shame on all y'all.

Dipping into the Jam Band pool is too easy. Endless thread, endless, e.g.: Disco Biscuits.

Child Abuse is a great band, but then I also like AIDS Wolf, so ...

sarahel, Tuesday, 6 July 2010 20:40 (fifteen years ago)

Alan Pownall.

"Alan", in 2010.

ithappens, Wednesday, 7 July 2010 15:30 (fifteen years ago)

Wouldn't it have been better if he'd spelt it "Pwnall"?

Fucked Up. Which, as I've today discovered, was a mistake.

Isn't there a band called Child Pornography? I thought I read that here in these forums but maybe not. Talk about a name you DO NOT want to google!

musicfanatic, Thursday, 8 July 2010 02:42 (fifteen years ago)

yes there is - it is actually one guy - and he is a friend of mine & table is the table, actually.

UH. Was just coming to post Umphrey's McGee, saw I was beaten by only days. I was already predisposed towards writing them off as a jam band, though.

But I will also offer up Ekoostik Hookah. I mean...jesus christ, come on.

Discovered my brother feels this way about Real Estate.
Can't say I blame him.

Another vote for Emmy The Great. Imagine choosing that moniker, fucking hell

PaulTMA, Tuesday, 13 July 2010 20:30 (fifteen years ago)

When I was a teen, I thought "Sonic Youth" sounded pretentious and stupid, so I struck them off the list. They never made it back on.

You were correct.

my bloody valentine

for obvious reasons. it torments me when somebody asks what my favorite band is and i have to reply with the automatic assumption that they've categorized me into the emoverse.

I am pleased that Alex in NYC is now a fan of Pissed Jeans.
They kick a lot of ass.

But their name is terrible!

Because it looks really stupid, phonetically, at first glance.
