i love "astral milk-fed ganglia"--

def a huge influence on zappa's uncle meat

I heard that Vertigo challenged Frank to a gross out contest and won.

saw this at the record store the other day, used on CD for $3. should i pick it up? its from 1994 apparently. is recent Vertigo any good?

dude go back and get it before it's gone, that shit it hard to come by. even if you don't like it (and it's not easy to digest, frankly) you can mos def sell it to some japanese dude for $300.

Is that the one with Zakir Hussain on tabla and Billy Cobham on drums?

Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Saturday, 5 August 2006 19:39 (seventeen years ago) link

There's this live Guns N Roses bootleg I've got from 2002 and on "Get In the Ring", Axl Rose calls Denny a "typeface robbin' little bitch". I've always assumed that he was talking about the Cosmic Nipple cover. Pretty weird that he would hold that grudge for so long.

Mike Dixn (Mike Dixon), Saturday, 5 August 2006 20:47 (seventeen years ago) link

That feud goes back to a 1989 interview where Vertigo claimed that GnR had ripped off the riff for "Mr Brownstone" from "Monkey Nut Sundae".

Son of Spam (noodle vague), Saturday, 5 August 2006 20:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Axl can be quite sensitive about his fonts.

one year passes...

Denny V. just released an ep of Smashing Pumpkins covers. Pretty decent.

Mike Dixn, Friday, 28 September 2007 19:17 (sixteen years ago) link

Oh right, "Crying Tree of Mercury," "The Pistachio Medley," "The Beginning is the Middle is the Something Or Other" and "17."

Ned Raggett, Friday, 28 September 2007 19:19 (sixteen years ago) link

If it were anyone else, I'd say that's a pretty odd selection, but I can actually kind of imagine those first two at least with the trademark Vertigo touch.

jaymc, Friday, 28 September 2007 19:22 (sixteen years ago) link

And yet not without a certain je nai sais quoi that is best defined as the early 21st century's crisis of sonic confidence.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 28 September 2007 19:26 (sixteen years ago) link

The hidden track is a surprisingly faithful rendition of "Disarm".
Could he be taunting Denny Lethargy, in light of his accident a few months back?

Mike Dixn, Friday, 28 September 2007 19:34 (sixteen years ago) link

The mishap with the Segway? Yeah, that was embarrassing.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 28 September 2007 19:37 (sixteen years ago) link

I don't know why were skirting round the recent news. I mean i can't be the only one surprised by Verigo's profession of hardcore militant pescetarianism? How is it going to affect his work? And his live performances?

Frogman Henry, Friday, 28 September 2007 19:46 (sixteen years ago) link

this is the cover for the new album.

that is ADVANCED

latebloomer, Friday, 28 September 2007 19:55 (sixteen years ago) link

If "Silverfuck" is on the EP, that would be awesome.

It will be very strange to hear Vertigo covering such a blatantly Vertigo-influenced song. The universe will collapse in on itself or something in a singularity of AWESOME.

latebloomer, Friday, 28 September 2007 20:01 (sixteen years ago) link

this is the only thing I've found from his deep trance period, sorry it cuts off but it's taken from a mix CD on Moonshine Music

Milton Parker, Friday, 28 September 2007 20:24 (sixteen years ago) link

did Vertigo ever get off the ground with that private moonshot thing?

gabbneb, Friday, 28 September 2007 20:30 (sixteen years ago) link

I heard a new track of Vertigo's the other day called "Let It Go (You Guys)".

jeff, Friday, 28 September 2007 20:31 (sixteen years ago) link

The lyrics to that one were particularly fine.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 28 September 2007 20:35 (sixteen years ago) link

there's another one too released not too long ago (mp3-only track): "If U Don't Like It, Just Leave U Punk"

latebloomer, Friday, 28 September 2007 20:36 (sixteen years ago) link

very funky number.

latebloomer, Friday, 28 September 2007 20:37 (sixteen years ago) link

I hear it's even funkier than "Tuck'em In Already" (Lethargy's version of "Fuck 'Em If They Can't Take A Joke").

Been blasting "Solar Cock" this morning. Still sounds good!

Working is an incredible challenge
A kind of vertical division
Let it resonate within your sacred space
I'm going to fuck you until your voice goes away
We come from the same place
I can't bear it any longer woman
You're Vertigoing Insane

remember denny vertigo's faux-angry blog post about the U2 song 'vertigo', claiming it was inspired by him and therefore he deserved royalties?

pro bowl was fun (omar little), Wednesday, 25 February 2009 20:07 (fifteen years ago) link

great revive. was thinking about vertigo this week.

cutty, Wednesday, 25 February 2009 20:07 (fifteen years ago) link

and i'm not sure that blog post was faux-angry. dude seemed angry-angry.

cutty, Wednesday, 25 February 2009 20:08 (fifteen years ago) link

Not sure how seriously you can take a guy who once tried to sue Denny's, tho.

aging very well, fer sure (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 25 February 2009 20:09 (fifteen years ago) link

i guess i thought it was along the lines of the donald fagen "cease and desist" open letter to owen wilson re: "you me and dupree"? i could have misread it.

pro bowl was fun (omar little), Wednesday, 25 February 2009 20:09 (fifteen years ago) link

how many people have sued denny's over chronic food-poisoning i wonder?
i bet a year as a trucker would strengthen my stomach to a serious degree. but i digress.

ian, Wednesday, 25 February 2009 20:11 (fifteen years ago) link

is "max" upthread our very own max? in 2005?

cutty, Wednesday, 25 February 2009 20:12 (fifteen years ago) link

^^ was just wondering this. denny was a lot of ppl's way into ilm, at least in the old days.

goole, Wednesday, 25 February 2009 20:14 (fifteen years ago) link

No surprise there. Dude has a cult fanbase.

some douchebag i know apparently thought denny lethargy sounded like blue cheer. i later discovered he had never even HEARD blue cheer, he was just some asshole with an MC5 shirt
