So how's Mr. Mascis looking these days?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 29 August 2006 03:23 (nineteen years ago)

And how's that mansion he bought from those Melrose Place royalties working out?

I wore a flannel and a babydoll dress in honor of this thread. How did we ever make it out of the early 90s alive?

― mh (melsh), Tuesday, 29 August 2006 04:36 (nineteen years ago)

we'll be saying the same things about our nano boots and rocket packs and holographic underwear in 40 years.

I actually watched Bio Dome on TV a couple weeks back. I was shocked that it came out in 1996. Seems so old now.

I wanted to look at some Pauly Shore soundtracks, but Encino Man has already been done by Partyman (starts w/Vince Neil) and In The Army Now actually had a score. That leaves:

Son In Law:

1. Fallin' Down - Goo Dolls
2. Electric Harley House (Of Love) - Green Jelly
3. Perfect World - Alias
4. Bled Me Dry - 3 1/2 Minutes
5. Who Was In My Room Last Night? - Butthole Surfers
6. Funkintoyoear (Remix) - Raw Fusion
7. Hey, Good Lookin' - C.C. Deville (Vocals By Spike)
8. Green Acres - Eddie Albert & Eva Gabor
9. Thank God I'm A Country Boy - John Denver
10. The Hog On Crawl - Richard Gibbs
11. Thank God I'm A Country Boy - Pauly Shore
12. Crazy Little Thing Called Love - Queen

Man, Andy, who knew the AMG work would scar that much.

No, it would be retail in this case.

Does anybody still have some of the circa 1995 Spin/A.P./label promo CD samplers?

god i love this thread

― strongohulkington, Thursday, 26 April 2007 18:51 (nineteen years ago)

I was thinking about this thread the other day.

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 26 April 2007 18:56 (nineteen years ago)

I think it was because of the Goo Goo Dolls or something.

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 26 April 2007 18:56 (nineteen years ago)

they're hawking their wares on qvc

― maura, Thursday, 26 April 2007 20:15 (nineteen years ago)

the crow s/t track by track is actually pretty good. about 6 or 7 good songs on there.

because of the format and cause it all sounds so horribly disjointed, i never listen to it.

interesting to see radiohead, nick cave and mazzy star slutting around on sountracks so liberally

― Charlie Howard, Friday, 27 April 2007 05:38 (nineteen years ago)

lol that soundtrack was like my fave record in 4th grade. so many good memories of bouncing around in my room to my life with the thrill kill kult.

― the table is the table, Friday, 27 April 2007 18:57 (nineteen years ago)

You're surely not alone: you could call that whole 90s goth/industrial alternative undertow embarrassing in retrospect, but it seems to have been a way bigger influence on current pop music than plenty of its non-embarrassing contemporaries! Largely via Nine Inch Nails, but still. Especially back in the nu-metal days, that was totally Crow-style.

― nabisco, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:07 (nineteen years ago)

That reminds me -- who wants to try and pinpoint the exact moment when "the rock the young people listen to" swung from nu-metal to MySpace emo?

― nabisco, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:09 (nineteen years ago)

When the Strokes caused 9/11.

― Ned Raggett, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:10 (nineteen years ago)

when dashboard debuted at no. 2 in 2003

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:11 (nineteen years ago)

Good Christ, they did, didn't they.

― Ned Raggett, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:12 (nineteen years ago)

i swear someone did it earlier though

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:13 (nineteen years ago)

Ha shit that's exactly right:

July 03 = MySpace launches
August 03 = The O.C. debuts
August 03 = Dashboard Confessional debuts at #2

― nabisco, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:15 (nineteen years ago)

Honorary Pathbreaker Award to Jimmy Eat World for "The Middle" (2002)

2003 was some harmonic convergence shit

Good thread.

Super Mega Ultra Honorary Award to ORGY for anticipating an entire decade's worth of rock trends with their cover of "Blue Monday" and associated video -- AHEAD OF THEIR TIME, man

― nabisco, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:19 (nineteen years ago)

thursday also debuted at no. 7 in 2003

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:20 (nineteen years ago)

I still love Big Empty!

Deadsy RIP ;_;

― David R., Friday, 27 April 2007 19:21 (nineteen years ago)

Even if it does include the phrases "Her dizzy head is conscience-laden" and "her name is what it means"

― Hurting 2, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:23 (nineteen years ago)

what about Staind? don't they get an award for something?

― Mr. Que, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:24 (nineteen years ago)

Least Annoying 4th-Gen Arena Grunge Knock-Off?

― David R., Friday, 27 April 2007 19:25 (nineteen years ago)

I was going to say "One-Armed Scissor" was the warning shot, but apparently it never charted. Seemed like it was on after-midnight MTV all the time in 2000 though.

― milo z, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:26 (nineteen years ago)

Thursday had huge buzz from that first album

― Catsupppppppppppppp dude ‫茄蕃‪, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:27 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah I'm trying to find charts to track the shift right now, and Staind are looking like a place-filler in there -- they don't fit either category at all, but I suppose moany grunge would be a decent mixtape transition between metal and emo.

Also important to 2002/2003 = Secret Contribution Award to the White Stripes for interesting fans in an indier direction, which surely helps lead to emo and O.C.-rock over metal

― nabisco, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:29 (nineteen years ago)

Same for the Strokes, on a lower level. Though I dunno, I never listened to rock radio back then -- did any of their singles get enough play to make them more widely influential than their album sales might suggest?

― nabisco, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:30 (nineteen years ago)

Haha also we should totally be scanning the ILM archives from summer / fall 2003 and pitching in to buy a cookie for anyone who noted this EPIC SHIFT

― nabisco, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:32 (nineteen years ago)

I am not an emo fan but I thank god every day that MCR and Fall Out Boy have rid the airwaves of Godsmack and Drowning Pool.

― Curt1s Stephens, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:33 (nineteen years ago)

Staind TOTALLY fit the nu metal category, though! their first hit was called "Mudshovel" and their transition into power ballad hitmakers was signaled by a duet with Fred Durst recorded live on the Family Values tour, fer chrissakes.

― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:34 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah I couldn't pick Staind apart from the rest of the nu-metal crowd.

Unless we want to make "BUZZ BALLADS" an official genre now, which can we please do just because?

― Curt1s Stephens, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:36 (nineteen years ago)

x-post -- Yeah but I think all of those bands had to do that. The equivalent of kissing his ring. If you will.

― Ned Raggett, Friday, 27 April 2007 19:36 (nineteen years ago)

if anything the gateway to emo dominance was paved by pop punk mainstays like Blink 182 and Green Day. nu metal/post-grunge is and was for a totally different (and possibly older) audience, I think.
