latepassapedia: records that were light years better the ones indie dudes eventually endorsed as classics

louis, i'm sorry that you weren't able to throw yourself on the cross in the name of feminism in yet another thread

this thread isn't really anything anyone should get worked up or "butthurt" about though

excelsior

that's recycled excelsiors, don't bother~

like, I get Whiney's good intentions to proselytise music he sees as underregarded; he's chosen inflammatory terms to do so and offhandedly dismissed the consensus of music-fans as fervent as he, but I don't think he's dismissing them individually

so I'm cool with the thread's vague premise (early albums that got 'lost' by critical consensus) if not some of its rhetoric. also I don't think it should be limited to 'non-indie' because that's when fights start.

Whiney, u a bro, don't get mad itt :(

contenderizer is broadly otm but is picking an otm fight against someone who isn't really its opponent

i love the smell of clusterfuck in the morning. the smell, you know, that ilx smell. smells like ... weingarten.

subway and salt-water

weingarten contenderizer. either way...

is that what your dick smells like?

dont be gross

louis OTM, but talking crazy about clouds taste metallic. the flaming lips record that gets missed is in a priest driven ambulance, and it's almost as indie as me.

if sarahel goes dark for a few minutes it's cuz she's choosing between vibrators

xp - you're the one who brought it up

that's recycled excelsiors, don't bother~

;_;

hey j0rdan, take that to dchat - lol

this thread is p boring as clusterfucks go

maybe you and i could work on some new beef

maybe not as bad as 'deej vs lex on nightslugs' but im sayin

I was working on an Earl Unit display name

Earl Unit - BUT

um BUTT

whiney's irl unit

at the pussy buffet

"Hidden World" was their breakthrough, I thought
"Epics In Minutes" is amazing
and Fucked Up are an indie band on Jade Tree & Matador so this thread is eating itself

sarahel, did you lend your login to Blowfly?

if i knew the name of fucked up's singer i would make a fat joke right now

thread did some good.

BUY IT NOW THE OPENING TRACK IS REALLY EXCITING AS IS 'DAYS OF LAST'

:)

"Epics In Minutes" is a compilation of their 7"s, "Baiting The Public", "Police", "Circling The Drain", all excellent

What is the miles davis record eventually endorsed by indie dudes as a classic then? On the Corner? Jack Johnson? Silent Way? Is there really only one?

On the Corner is pretty much the one, yeah. Indie folks don't fuck with acoustic Miles, in my experience.

On the Corner is great but it's kind of the Miles record that sounds least like a Miles record. Still, I kind of thought Bitches Brew was cannon for indie dudes who dabble in jazz.

Nah, Bitches Brew is canonical Miles for Sixties rock dudes. OTC is the one for people who grew up in a post-hip hop, post-Laswell soundworld.

Down - NOLA

^ dunno, they always got a vinyl copy of Bitches Brew for sale in indie shops. think it's the canonical Miles selection for non-jazz ppl in general. OTC is go2 for yr more "discerning" indie types.

First Clutch album (can't google the name) is an even better example.

OD has one of my favorite songs of all time on it (Dead Bent) but I actually like KMD's Mr. Hood even more...

Art of Self Defense is easily one of my favorite albums of the decade.
