BAM THWOK. That was the name of it.

Sorry, this is a Breeders thread. And I am drunk.

An evening of fun in the metropolis of your dream (Bimble...), Saturday, 28 October 2006 02:25 (nineteen years ago)

for me:

Breeders > Pixies

not that I don't like the latter, but songs like "Do You Love Me Now?" and "DOE" kind of, well, SHALL WE SAY, TROMP LE MONDE?? harhahr

Throwing Muses > Pixies

for me (not that I... blah blah..)

What exactly is classic about Pod?

I'd like to know too! Seems pretty unanimously like a record I should get round to hearing one day.

also Title TK one of Albini's shittiest sound jobs

Couldn't disagree more - the songs on Title TK are fairly uninspired but what saves it is the gloriously raw-but-rich sound (the non-Albini tracks are very flat by comparison).

The Safari EP is one of my favorite EPs evah. Last Splash needs editing. Haven't heard the other two.

Kim Deal's voice (and i guess Kelly's too) is grand.
i love her so much...and her gtr playing's alright, too!

COME BACK, KIM AND SING SOME MORE!!!

oops i accidentally made it personal (surm), Thursday, 29 October 2009 14:35 (sixteen years ago)

was pumped to show u guys

oops i accidentally made it personal (surm), Thursday, 29 October 2009 14:36 (sixteen years ago)

Didn't they use to look alike?

StanM, Thursday, 29 October 2009 14:37 (sixteen years ago)

i almost effed up and gave them both Pod to sign, and then it hit me that kelley wasn't on Pod. so i ran home and got one of her solo albums too

oops i accidentally made it personal (surm), Thursday, 29 October 2009 14:38 (sixteen years ago)

what are her solo albums like?

fyi vagina (a hoy hoy), Thursday, 29 October 2009 14:39 (sixteen years ago)

they're like... kim, but more preschool and ridiculous, in an amazing way, if that makes sense

oops i accidentally made it personal (surm), Thursday, 29 October 2009 14:41 (sixteen years ago)

it does. but while i don't have them i am just going to listen to last splash instead. it's been too long, like a whole month without hearing it.

fyi vagina (a hoy hoy), Thursday, 29 October 2009 14:43 (sixteen years ago)

sounds perfect :P

oops i accidentally made it personal (surm), Thursday, 29 October 2009 14:46 (sixteen years ago)

Congrats surm, and you look like a sweetie btw

Niles Crane (Niles Caulder), Thursday, 29 October 2009 14:55 (sixteen years ago)

I've only seen them onstage at a concert where the stage was a good few feet higher than the audience so my view was biased but are they that small or are you very tall? Terrific pic btw :)

willem, Thursday, 29 October 2009 15:05 (sixteen years ago)

they're pretty small! i'm only 5'11"

oops i accidentally made it personal (surm), Thursday, 29 October 2009 15:07 (sixteen years ago)

jed_, Thursday, 29 October 2009 15:13 (sixteen years ago)

willem, Thursday, 29 October 2009 15:21 (sixteen years ago)

oops i accidentally made it personal (surm), Thursday, 29 October 2009 15:22 (sixteen years ago)

no! really? wow.. kim looks healthy

willem, Thursday, 29 October 2009 15:24 (sixteen years ago)

kim w/ short hair looks awes

jed_, Friday, 30 October 2009 01:58 (sixteen years ago)

They were so good when I saw them this summer. They played "I am Decided"!

Trip Maker, Friday, 30 October 2009 03:08 (sixteen years ago)

'overglazed' is the jam

nine months pass...

i love how Kim Deal smiles so much during live shows.

Zeno, Saturday, 21 August 2010 19:21 (fifteen years ago)

eight months pass...

I had "Cannonball" stuck in my head today for no good reason.

I suspect that this is/was true about everyone on ILM at some point in their lives.

Dodo Lurker (Slim and Slam), Thursday, 19 May 2011 00:36 (fifteen years ago)

Man, I bought the 7", and it's pressed really shittily - the center hole is too small to fit over the spindle on my turntable! I tried to force it down but the belt wouldn't move. I'm not sure what to do - definitely a drag.

She Got the Shakes, Friday, 18 January 2013 01:01 (thirteen years ago)

doh, that is lame. i didn't even know about this til today...

tylerw, Friday, 18 January 2013 02:40 (thirteen years ago)

when this used to happen to me I'd use the scoop-bladey thing on a Swiss Army knife to enlarge the spindle hole

( ͡° ͜ʖ͡°) (sic), Friday, 18 January 2013 16:03 (thirteen years ago)

I've only bought like 2 7"s in the last 8-9 years though

( ͡° ͜ʖ͡°) (sic), Friday, 18 January 2013 16:04 (thirteen years ago)

prob still works tho

( ͡° ͜ʖ͡°) (sic), Friday, 18 January 2013 16:04 (thirteen years ago)

Stick the pen end of a biro in the hole and turn it back and forth a few times, that usually sorts it.

Just noise and screaming and no musical value at all. (Colonel Poo), Friday, 18 January 2013 16:19 (thirteen years ago)
