drove from dc to philly last week to see them and they played for like 20 minz max but i didn't care because they were incredibly awesome

i wanted to go to that show but i was waiting in a long-ass line to see sonic youth.

― mts (theoreticalgirl), Tuesday, 20 June 2006 16:29 (nineteen years ago)

yeah, pete and i were wondering if we'd see you there. bummer.

― you make chatting lame (teenagequiet), Tuesday, 20 June 2006 16:32 (nineteen years ago)

― mts (theoreticalgirl), Tuesday, 20 June 2006 16:33 (nineteen years ago)

Ah, so you are in Philly! This is good to know as we are considering moving there shortly and it would be nice to have a good friend already there.

This has to be the most embarrassing "look at us, we're RAWK and WE DON'T CARE" band name I've ever encountered.

― Matos-Webster Dictionary (M Matos), Tuesday, 20 June 2006 19:47 (nineteen years ago)

get over your sense of propriety.

― electro-acoustic lycanthrope (orion), Tuesday, 20 June 2006 19:52 (nineteen years ago)

yep, pretty RAWK all right

"Closet Marine" is some good shit. Guess I'll send for the CD.

Wait a minute, so this band features former CHIKARA pro-wrestler Mister Zero? Or is someone pulling my leg quite severely?

Orderd the "Shallow" LP from the label after hearing the Sub Pop 7" about 2 weeks ago. Still eagerly waiting for it to come in the mail.

I know they played with Flipper last month at Northsix, a show I'm regretting not going to. Have yet to hear that 7" that came out on Sub Pop, any good?

― mcd (mcd), Friday, 13 October 2006 15:16 (nineteen years ago)

that 7" fucking rules, dude.

good god this band is amazing

some days i really think shallow is the best album i've heard this decade

― strongohulkington, Thursday, 19 April 2007 20:10 (nineteen years ago)

is the new one out yet?

― M@tt He1ges0n, Thursday, 19 April 2007 23:20 (nineteen years ago)

Shallow is fckng good. How's about that Clockcleaner album too? Forget the name of it. but,fckng good.

Are they buddies or something?

― Drooone, Thursday, 19 April 2007 23:39 (nineteen years ago)

has anyone heard the new album? it's fucking fantastic.

i've become enamored.

― circa1916, Sunday, 22 April 2007 00:29 (nineteen years ago)

Not feeling these guys AT ALL.

If this is a parody of c. 1984 soulsuck punk, it ain't a very funny one. Listening to "The Jogger" is like "BREAKING DISPATCH FROM PUNK ROCK: YUPPIES SUCK"

― Whiney G. Weingarten, Sunday, 22 April 2007 00:35 (nineteen years ago)

Hearing dude talk about his digital watch and stuff is like watching True Stories in slo-mo. LOL THE BANALITY OF MODERN EXISTENCE

― Whiney G. Weingarten, Sunday, 22 April 2007 00:36 (nineteen years ago)

My evolving (but yet not settled-on) opinion of the new album:

Speaking of neo-pigfuckers, though, the Pissed Jeans singer was pissing me off the other day by convincing me that my kid was watching some lame comedian on youtube in the next room when really the voice was coming out of my own stereo. Sounded very weak. My hopes for the album are plummetting, but I won't give up on it yet. Maybe it'll kick in. So far, Hilary Duff is blowing it out of the water.
-- xhuxk, Saturday, 14 April 2007 17:04 (1 week ago)

PISSED JEANS -- I'm liking the parts where they don't sing (like, what tracks 7 and 10 evolve into) more than the parts where they do sing, which parts inevitably seem to convince me that the singer has a champagne cork up his rectum (whilst rhythm section follows suit.) They're entertaining, though, when they just let the guitars go and get wacky. In other words, they make noise that is not merely noisy, but fun at the same time, not as common a trick as one might think. Songs, I'm not so sure -- Their earlier EP (mini-LP, maxi-EP, whatever the heck it was) convinced me they could write songs, oddly enough, but that one had a cool lyric sheet (I've got in only on vinyl), so maybe that was cheating. Either way, they're maybe one-tenth as good as Flipper used to be. Which is still not bad, as punk bands in 2007 go, I suppose.
-- xhuxk, Friday, 20 April 2007 11:48 (Yesterday)

Pissed Jeans are going downhill, too. Seriously wondering whether I overrated their first one. What do people think is so great about them again?
-- xhuxk, Saturday, 21 April 2007 01:20 (Yesterday)

― xhuxk, Sunday, 22 April 2007 00:40 (nineteen years ago)

OTM. Dude is like Stephen Wright without punchlines.

― Whiney G. Weingarten, Sunday, 22 April 2007 00:42 (nineteen years ago)

Air Conditioning > Clockcleaner >>> Pissed Jeans

― Whiney G. Weingarten, Sunday, 22 April 2007 00:43 (nineteen years ago)

xp (Oh yeah, those were from the rolling metal thread.)

But I disagree with Whiney; the Cockcleaner stuff I've heard has been worse.

― xhuxk, Sunday, 22 April 2007 00:45 (nineteen years ago)

― xhuxk, Sunday, 22 April 2007 00:46 (nineteen years ago)

i don't know, can't say i really listen to the stuff for insightful commentary and the vocals are a perfect fit for the music IMO.

i do know that this sounds phenomenal coming out of my speakers right now.

― circa1916, Sunday, 22 April 2007 00:57 (nineteen years ago)

who even pays attention to lyrics? i'm in fucking love with the guitar.

― GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ, Sunday, 22 April 2007 11:47 (nineteen years ago)

word.

i like these guys.

for nu-pigfuck though i think STNNNG torches pissed jeans, and are more interesting.

― M@tt He1ges0n, Sunday, 22 April 2007 14:28 (nineteen years ago)

I can't even understand the lyrics most of the time. I feel old and confused, like when my friend if we could turn the subtitles on when we were watching "8 Mile."

― Ben Boyerrr, Sunday, 22 April 2007 14:57 (nineteen years ago)

the lyrics are great! what do y'all want, poetry?

― strongohulkington, Sunday, 22 April 2007 15:01 (nineteen years ago)

I might not mind the lyrics (which I don't have anything against, really) if the vocals were better.

― xhuxk, Sunday, 22 April 2007 15:21 (nineteen years ago)

And I just mean "better" in the sense of, like, Flipper (who wrote great songs, by the way).

― xhuxk, Sunday, 22 April 2007 15:26 (nineteen years ago)

a dude who is in this band is great friends with another friend of mine. we were out for drinks (after a horrifying R5 show at the church-- Do Make Say Think Don't Really Sound Good), and he was all "we're playing here, here, here.." when i asked him what band he was in, he said 'Pissed Jeans,' and i was all star-struck for a minute. but he didn't play on the early releases i have, so it faded....

― the table is the table, Sunday, 22 April 2007 15:31 (nineteen years ago)

i'm certainly not going to argue that pissed jeans are better than friggin' flipper, but that's a bit unfair, chuck.

― strongohulkington, Sunday, 22 April 2007 15:34 (nineteen years ago)

Okay, well, then, what do you like about the vocals? Because right now, I'm basically convinced they'd be better as instrumental band. And nothing on this thread so far has much suggested otherwise.

They've never had a bad album, but this new one is exceptionally good and might be my favorite since King of Jeans.

― Maxmillion D. Boosted (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Thursday, 21 March 2024 21:04 (two years ago)

some of their fans don't like it because it's more "punk" than "noise rock" but I'm ok with that, I think it's great

― Colonel Poo, Friday, 22 March 2024 17:04 (two years ago)

i like the new album but nothing really jumps out at me as a particular highlight/something i would add to a "best of pissed jeans" playlist other than "junk time" which is the most noise rock song on the album. but i probably need to listen to it more, a lot of the songs zip by very quickly. i love PJ for having humor in their songs but "everywhere is bad" is maybe 10% too jokey for me, and i don't love the chorus.

anyone know who's doing backup vocals on "seatbelt alarm silencer"?

― na (NA), Friday, 22 March 2024 17:12 (two years ago)

> "everywhere is bad" is maybe 10% too jokey

It's that way if I think about it too much, but when it just wheezes by it's great. "Junktime" is the best in their familiar way of oozing, but I love that they play a lot differently here overall. Agree that this is their best since King of Jeans.

― bendy, Friday, 22 March 2024 20:37 (two years ago)

Yeah "Junktime" is probably my favorite, but also love the breakneck punk ones.

― Maxmillion D. Boosted (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Friday, 22 March 2024 20:38 (two years ago)

That hanging chord halfway through Junktime is tremendous. Really love the lead work on this album.

bendy posting the way Pissed Jeans hammer in those noise riffs, respect.

Haha

― bendy, Saturday, 23 March 2024 00:38 (two years ago)

Saw them play a lot of these songs live a week or so ago and they sounded excellent. "Junktime" was for sure the highlight but "Moving On' and "Killing All The Wrong People" sounded great too. "(Stolen) Catalytic Converter" is another highlight for me. Great album overall. Reminds me a bit of Hot Snakes more than their others. "Moving On" reminds me of "Plenty for All" a little bit.

― gman59, Monday, 25 March 2024 18:48 (two years ago)

six months pass...

as someone who loves pissed jeans but doesn't know much about hardcore, who would you say are their primary musical influences/predecessors?

― na (NA), Tuesday, 1 October 2024 16:38 (one year ago)

their big innovation is applying adult disillusionment to a genre built on youthful nihilism. But for the psychic horror, Flipper. For the ugly journeymenship, Poison Idea.

― Theracane Gratifaction (bendy), Tuesday, 1 October 2024 16:58 (one year ago)

not a predecessor but the album ‘skullduggery’ by wiccans scratches the pissed jeans itch for me
