I was meaning to buy that OMM, after I saw the cover - "look at me, I am the new syd barret damo suzuki mick jagger roky erikson gram parsons" for the rofflez. But, seeing as it's written by (ugh) james brown, I'm glad I didn't bother.

I also question whether Bobby Gillespie ever played with the Pastels. I've never heard of that before and there's so much fact bending in the article that I doubt it's true.

New album Beautiful Future out on July 21st. Produced by Bjorn out of Peter Bjorn and John, who says: "It's much more pop and kraut than earlier, so it fits well with me. It sounds a bit like Alan Vega and Suicide."
It should at least be better than Riot City Blues, then.

That can't be hard, to be fair.
― Scik Mouthy, Tuesday, 20 May 2008 14:27 (sixteen years ago) link
Well, fair's fair, since Bobby influenced Suicide in the first place when they saw him put his hand too close to the bunsen burner in chemistry class and he screeched and stamped his foot rhythmically.
Bobby also wrote the original lyrics to their most famous tune, "Frank Skerrett Teardrop."

Is RCB actually their least-liked (I would say worst, but that doesn't really seem to be the right word to use when describing the Scream) album? I've not actually listened to the second album in a long time, but it at least has I'm Losing More Than I'll Ever Have on it. Give Out has its moments too. But I listened to RCB once and I've never felt any need to go near it again (even for a pound in Fopp).
I didn't know they were playing at Meltdown either, with the MC5 apparently.
― Bocken Social Scene, Tuesday, 20 May 2008 14:35 (sixteen years ago) link
Bobby gave MC5 their name of course. He originally suggested they call themselves the Jack McLaughlin 5, in honour of the host of STV's popular "Thingummyjig" show (the self-styled "Laird o' Coocaddens"); the name was shortened over the years to MC5

Little Death is quite good, as I recall. Other than that, total bollocks. AMG rates it higher than Evil Heat. Hmmm. Evil Heat is just 'meh'. RCB is proper shit.
― Scik Mouthy, Tuesday, 20 May 2008 14:41 (sixteen years ago) link
I love the idea of a "Mc5."
Don't forget that the Velvets were inspired by a poem wee Boab wrote in his second year primary school class though he later got the strap when the teacher found out he'd nicked it from Francie and Josie:
"Ye've nivver lived unless ye've bin oan the Velvet Underground"

Snicker.
"Give Out but Don't Give Up" is the only one I regularly go back to. It will be interesting to hear what they do with the young folk.

Urban Guerilla. Primal Scream are now officially 100% embarrassing.

doesn't guerrilla have, erm, two "r"s? or are SFA wrong?

Results 1 - 10 of about 14,800,000 for guerrilla. (0.19 seconds) Results 1 - 10 of about 9,600,000 for guerilla. (0.22 seconds)
― Just got offed, Friday, 13 June 2008 13:14 (fifteen years ago) link
I mean it's clearly "Guerrilla"; do things like "La Guere" or "Roger Guerero" ring true? Exactly.
― Just got offed, Friday, 13 June 2008 13:16 (fifteen years ago) link
Looks wrong somehow with two "R"s, though.
I'd d/l it for the lulz but I don't fancy giving them my email address.
