Why not, esoj? i managed to not get that when it was in stores around here, but i really like burned mind; is there something about it that makes it weaker than other recent WE material (including dread/slicer/dead hills/any random whatever)?

well i'm perhaps overstating the case but i'm yet to be convinced it's my sort of thing. i suck as a noize dude.

oh, that's fair totally--they're not everyone's cup of tea. i'm still kind of curious (in a bizarre fetishistic sort of way) about what you don't like about it, and wolf eyes in general. i fear i don't remember sometimes.

― Ian John50n (orion), Tuesday, 19 October 2004 05:35 (twenty-one years ago)

I love them now. Opposite of my post upthread.

FreeBee, "I 'Get' Wolf Eyes" = OTM

Jon ex-machina, it is with British pride that I announce that Wolf Eyes are on the front cover of The Wire magazine.

― DJ Martian (djmartian), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 15:41 (twenty-one years ago)

Does anyone in Britain actually read the Wire?

me and 15,000 + ? others

― DJ Martian (djmartian), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 15:50 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm told all you guys do is listen to the Libertines and suck.....

― sometimes i like to pretend i am very small and warm (ex machina), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 16:02 (twenty-one years ago)

ha, jon check my blog - i was the first person on the web to critically attack the libertines before they even released anything.

― DJ Martian (djmartian), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 16:05 (twenty-one years ago)

Music that tries really hard to be scary is kind of silly.

― n/a (Nick A.), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 16:06 (twenty-one years ago)

unless it works really fucking well.

Do they mention in the article how they got arrested during the cover shoot?

Taking Sides: Tangerine Dream vs. Wolf Eyes

They're pretty good, but I bet there's no Phaedra.

― iannis, Friday, 22 October 2004 19:46 (twenty-one years ago)

We just listened to Wolf Eyes "Burned Mind" and thought, huh, pretty heavy. Then we listened to Paranoid and decided Wolf Eyes are cute and harmless. But it's friday, and the whiskey is taking hold.

Music that tries really hard to be scary is kind of silly

Perhaps kind of silly, but not necessarily bad - see Merzbow and Borbetomagus, for instance. What I've heard of Wolf Eyes ("Dead Hills" mostly) is good in much the same way as those bands are - the absurdity inherent in extreme music is one of its virtues.

― o. nate (onate), Friday, 22 October 2004 20:33 (twenty-one years ago)

superultramega: you shouldn't listen to wolf eyes for a ROCK experience the way you do with sabbath. for that you should see the eyes live where the beats will flow like wine. i still haven't been able to find my copy of dread. wtf. been jamming that recycled tape a lot lately though.. some totally killer live jams.

― Ian John50n (orion), Friday, 22 October 2004 20:54 (twenty-one years ago)

you shouldn't listen to the gratedul dead for a ROCK experience the way you do with Sabbath. For that you should see the dead live where Jerry's licks flow like wine. . . .

― ouroborus, Friday, 22 October 2004 21:05 (twenty-one years ago)

"wolf eyes rules" is still my favourite track, but somebody said that the entire thing was andrew wk's work instead of being a rmx - any help from the noize dude contingent?

― etc, Friday, 22 October 2004 22:50 (twenty-one years ago)

Wolf Eyes LIVE on the other hand is as ROCK an experience as you may get these days.

― the red c, Friday, 22 October 2004 22:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Wolf Eyes rules is Andrew WK

― Justin Farrar (Justin Farrar), Friday, 22 October 2004 23:00 (twenty-one years ago)

five months pass...

I have never heard Wolf Eyes. They are playing in Glasgow on Saturday. Should I see them? I suppose I'm asking people who know what I like, but I don't know who that is. Me?

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 18:06 (twenty-one years ago)

It's the best rave and death metal show you've ever been to all in one giant charlie horse from your older cousin.

(Yes)

― Darkness can't wait, Wednesday, 20 April 2005 18:14 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm going.

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 18:17 (twenty-one years ago)

I do not think that you will like them.

― European Samuel Glickstein (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 18:31 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm staying in.

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 18:35 (twenty-one years ago)

go but don't listen to them.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 18:36 (twenty-one years ago)

yes, he's right!

No really, Alba - you WON'T like them.

― European Samuel Glickstein (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 18:40 (twenty-one years ago)

And I DO like them, I just don't think you will.

― European Samuel Glickstein (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 18:40 (twenty-one years ago)

What does Alba like?

― Darkness again, me, Wednesday, 20 April 2005 18:45 (twenty-one years ago)

Hi! I like Grime and wear funny pants.

― European Samuel Glickstein (ex machina), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 18:47 (twenty-one years ago)

I only have one pair of "pants"! They're jeans, just jeans.

― European Samuel Glickstein (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 18:48 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm poor, you see.

― gygax! (gygax!), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 20:24 (twenty-one years ago)

but back to the topic at hand, i'm not sure if I condone the current line-up of Wolf Eyes mk. III.

― gygax! (gygax!), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 20:25 (twenty-one years ago)

Never mind Wolf Eyes - Tony Conrad is on the same bill.

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 20:26 (twenty-one years ago)

does Tony Conrad have t-shirts with skulls on them?

― The Sensational Sulk (sexyDancer), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 20:28 (twenty-one years ago)
