B2K Dishonor the Fire.....

...by naming their new album PANDEMONIUM, a title already taken by the almighty Killing Joke in 1994. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. FORCES MAY BE SET IN MOTION TO RECTIFY THIS AFFRONT. THE JOKE IS NOT TO BE TRIFLED WITH. THE FIRE IS NOT TO BE DISHONORED, let alone by a gaggle of priapic teenagers unable to keep their shirts on for more than ten minutes at a time.

They will suffer the same fate as that guy who stole the riff from "Eighties"

based on the one interview i saw, they meant it as some kind of a tribute. raz-b and lil fizz said they're huge killing joke fans. it's kind of hard to believe!

an angry Jaz Coleman is not a pleasant thing, as Mr. Cobain could attest were he still with us.

that said, i'm not entirely convinced that Killing Joke has this title sewn up ... are there are other albums named Pandemonium?

― Tad (llamasfur), Friday, 6 December 2002 08:14 (twenty years ago) link

actually, maybe Jaz Coleman can dump a boxful of maggots down B2K's underwear ... that might be the fitting punishment here?

― Tad (llamasfur), Friday, 6 December 2002 08:16 (twenty years ago) link

B2K *ARE* a boxful of maggots.

The Time released an album called Pandemonium a few years before Killing Joke did.

Yeah, but even Jaz Coleman isn't crazy enough to fuck with Morris Day.

I mean, Morris Day might threaten to do the Oak Tree or something!

That's the second time the word "priapic" has been used on this board in the last day. I like it! Just the way it sounds! Like "Mackerel". Anyone else got a phonetic favourite?

other artists whom the AMG accuses of dishonoring a bunch of burning sticks:

Pandemonium [1997] - Marcel & Frank
Pandemonium [1997] - Leech, Tony
Pandemonium [1998] - Lorber, Frank
Pandemonium [2000] - Powerhouse
Pandemonium [2001] - Thee Flatiners

They all stole it from Celtic Frost Into The Pandemonium

I would have expected that title to have been used in the early 80s by a hair band - Def Leppard maybe.

alex i can see the veins popping out of your head from here! with so much fire-dishonouring happening on a daily basis, how do you cope?

and alex isn't 'almighty' kind of a 13 year old thing to say about a band?

― Josh (Josh), Friday, 6 December 2002 14:43 (twenty years ago) link

PANDEMONIUM's a crap name for an album, I'll admit (and it's far from the Joke's finest hour)....BUT STILL!

Josh....is your world so mature and adult that you fret about the usage of such adjectives? Tisk, tisk, tisk....what a grey, depressing place that must be to live in.

Clearly NYC acquired his people skills by reading Dale Carnegie's _How to Smite Infidels and Absolve the Great Unwashed of their Heretical Pagan Ways_.

Can I just say I'm happy as hell that Sugababes rescued _Angels With Dirty Faces_ from Tricky's roach-stained grasp?

Yeah, but `twas Sham 69 that got there first, let's remember!

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 6 December 2002 15:08 (twenty years ago) link

How could I forget!?!? (Especially when I never knew?!?!) I like the question mark / exclamation point thing?!?!?!

i still like the idea of a Jaz Coleman v. Morris Day FITE!

― Tad (llamasfur), Saturday, 7 December 2002 21:06 (twenty years ago) link

Youth vs. Jerome Benton FITE!

clearly it is alex but I also want you to revel in your inner 13 year old

I cannot stop laughing at the mental image of Morris Day angrily oaktree-ing at Jaz Coleman, who huddles inthe corner whimpering, "No... please... NO MORE!!!"

what, there's no b2k apologist on this board? come on, there has to be at least one somewhere

Fred Solinger doesn't post anymore.

I hardly need to defend b2k.

(Sterling picking up Fred's slack!) (Um, that wasn't supposed to sound dirty.)

B2K sounds like the Whopper for the new millenium.

b2k are surprisingly ugly for teen idols..."uh huh" would be a hot track without them on it, though.
