Of course there are more tastefully individualistic divas du jour—like the Black Eyed Peas' FERGIE, who, at Paper magazine's dinner at Luda in her honor, was sweet and effusive in all her Heatheretted-up glory. She was so sweet, in fact, that I hated to corner her with a pesky question involving personal hygiene. Had she seen the photo from their recent San Diego concert, linked on gawker.com, in which a giant, crescent-shaped stain jazzed up her pants crotch? (Reports claimed that since she and the Peas had arrived late, Fergie was in a bind and had to relieve herself onstage.) "I had a bad day that day," she told me, not moistening—or clarifying. Point taken—but did the Black Eyed pee? "No!" she exclaimed, half convincingly. "Well then," I generously stammered, "maybe it was perspiration?" She half nodded, still smiling, but being as much of a gentleman as she's a lady, I didn't pursue that or other far worse options. (You know . . . never mind.)

How cool is the piano outro on "Ugly Twin (I've Got)"!

Drunks with Guns vinyl record prices to skyrocket!

I had been hoping it would turn up at one of my usual physical store haunts but I will probably give up and go the mail order route soon

They are going to break a lot of gay watersports enthusiast's hearts with that band name.

(although I really like GIRLS who piss their jeans.)

I do have a feeling this stuff is smarter than its letting on.

yeah, i mean it's a pretty deliberate attempt to mine sexual frustration/torpid deviance for lyrical content. works wonder, i say.

'Boring Girls' ....laugh, laugh to a Drunks With Guns one chord-a -thon about the beauty of the ladies.

To the thread originator, I'm almost 39 you young buck.

The last time punk rock decked me in the head this hard was Fucked Up.

The Ginn-style guitar is so fucking visceral, and the rhythm section sometimes lopes into Jesus Lizard territory.

It's so cool to see bands revisiting the weird side of early-80s hardcore.

Here's a page about Fucked Up if anyone is interested.

Shallow is my most listened to rock record in a long time

yep, pretty RAWK all right

Today's melange of flak from a project manager, neighborhood burglaries, and a deer tick bite necessitated shuffling through the Pissed Jeans discography all afternoon.

convinced that a) they are one of the great bands of the current era and b) "goodbye (hair)" is the greatest song title of the current era

I miss Pissed Jeans

mist jeans

perfect timing

i feel like "i'm a man" is the ur-pissed jeans song title

This is such a good Pissed Jeans album.

They're not mere pigfuck revivalists, but at their best they remind me why I love that sound.

Is there already a promo kicking around?

Great album

I was not expecting to marvel at the thoughtful pacing and sequencing in a Pissed Jeans album but here we are

ugh this is so good. "i'm a man" is amazing and made me put a lindsay hunter book on hold at the library.

also Korvette is a legit amazing vocalist

this shit suxxx

This is good!

Korvette really going for it. Some cool production flourishes too.

LOL at the bleep on the first track.

"Love Without Emotion" is the best song Mudhoney never wrote

or a kinder, gentler tad?

also Korvette is a legit amazing vocalist

"Waiting On My Horrible Warning" testament to this. Little but a bass drone & MATT KORVETTE LADIES & GENTLEMEN.

They (Pissed Jeans) are playing the Empty Bottle in Chicago on April 28th which I only mention cuz then band I am in (STNNNG) is playing as well.

We played together at the Bottle in 2008. Which was a long ass time ago.

i just saw that and put it on my calendar and also a reminder to buy tickets tomorrow. great lineup!

this video is good

yesssssssss

what happens to the pastry in his pocket after the coffee is spilled?

"Sixty-Two Thousand Dollars in Debt" on repeat

The single made me a bit fearful, but the LP rules. Everywhere Is Bad is my highlight.

Saw someone raving about this new one , but haven't listened yet

Faster! Kinda Poison Idea sounding, but with their fine sense the torture of the mundane.

They've never had a bad album, but this new one is exceptionally good and might be my favorite since King of Jeans.

some of their fans don't like it because it's more "punk" than "noise rock" but I'm ok with that, I think it's great

i like the new album but nothing really jumps out at me as a particular highlight/something i would add to a "best of pissed jeans" playlist other than "junk time" which is the most noise rock song on the album. but i probably need to listen to it more, a lot of the songs zip by very quickly. i love PJ for having humor in their songs but "everywhere is bad" is maybe 10% too jokey for me, and i don't love the chorus.

anyone know who's doing backup vocals on "seatbelt alarm silencer"?

> "everywhere is bad" is maybe 10% too jokey

It's that way if I think about it too much, but when it just wheezes by it's great. "Junktime" is the best in their familiar way of oozing, but I love that they play a lot differently here overall. Agree that this is their best since King of Jeans.

Yeah "Junktime" is probably my favorite, but also love the breakneck punk ones.

That hanging chord halfway through Junktime is tremendous. Really love the lead work on this album.

bendy posting the way Pissed Jeans hammer in those noise riffs, respect.

Haha

Saw them play a lot of these songs live a week or so ago and they sounded excellent. "Junktime" was for sure the highlight but "Moving On' and "Killing All The Wrong People" sounded great too. "(Stolen) Catalytic Converter" is another highlight for me. Great album overall. Reminds me a bit of Hot Snakes more than their others. "Moving On" reminds me of "Plenty for All" a little bit.

as someone who loves pissed jeans but doesn't know much about hardcore, who would you say are their primary musical influences/predecessors?

their big innovation is applying adult disillusionment to a genre built on youthful nihilism. But for the psychic horror, Flipper. For the ugly journeymenship, Poison Idea.

not a predecessor but the album ‘skullduggery’ by wiccans scratches the pissed jeans itch for me
