I evidently referred to Steven Jenkins, fifteen years ago here, as a "shameless Ass Shogun."

new song/ep forthcoming http://www.ew.com/article/2016/07/25/third-eye-cop-vs-phone-girl
new song is v embarrassing engagement with current sociopolitical realities i.e. "if there was a time" but also it's pretty good still

Didn't love this one like last years full length but def a couple jams
― Spottie, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 03:59 (seven years ago) link
yeah it's uneven. "isn't it pretty" i think is trying to recapture "i want you" and it doesn't really work

i am enjoying myself so much
Stephan Jenkins: I wrote "Semi-Charmed" before I met Arion or any of the people in that make-up [of the band]. The drum loops on the final record are the ones that I originally recorded. I remember sitting in a room with this other songwriter who worked down the street -- she was a waitress -- and she came up and sat on the bed and we played each other some songs and I realized years later that the songs we played each other had sold 17 million records... it was [4 Non Blondes singer and mega-producer/songwriter] Linda Perry. She sang me a song called "What's Going On" and I sang her this song called "Semi-Charmed Life."
excited to read for surrrre

Love that they keep talking about shoegazer guitars - I guess they do have that sound on some tracks, don't they? I should check out this group beyond the first album

if anyone wants to hear a new third eye blind record as recorded by an ancient emo band, i highly recommend the new album by the maine
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Friday, 7 April 2017 19:25 (seven years ago) link
this is the dumbest oral history of something ever. "we made demos, played the viper room, got signed." wow big whoop.
― kurt schwitterz, Friday, 7 April 2017 19:41 (seven years ago) link
excuse me kurt, linda perry and stephan jenkins sold 17 million records combined
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Friday, 7 April 2017 19:47 (seven years ago) link
thats true. ste jenk played my work a few months ago and he was so out of it he could barely speak. linda p talks like a baby. i can just imagine those two hanging out in a shitty apartment in north beach mumbling to each other for hours.

Taco Bell sold over 17 millions doritos locos, do you want to read an oral history of that?

all of the bonus tracks are either great or interesting (i had no idea "an ode to maybe" was demoed for the s/t as "kiss goodnight) but their cover of "heroin" is hilarious

"wounded" live is crushing

im def going in a couple weeks. how were silversun pickups?
― down that brown path (Spottie), Wednesday, 28 June 2017 16:50 (six years ago) link
that POX is def interesting! I need to make one now.
― down that brown path (Spottie), Wednesday, 28 June 2017 16:51 (six years ago) link
silversun pickups were really great too, especially "friendly fires" which doesn't seem like the most live-performance-appropriate song but it was gorgeously done
imo 3eb should make "thanks a lot" a permanent part of their setlists, it RULES live
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Wednesday, 28 June 2017 16:58 (six years ago) link
nice, I've heard mixed things about 3eb live over the years but hearing great things about them playing the s/t. pumped
