sus before indie and later 90's scene
were you into jane's or nin?
or cure, depeche mode,
siouxie and the banshees
there's a lot of reunioness from
that time period going on
i just started listening to
ritual de lo habitual again
i forgot how much i really loved
that album
it's kinda of a weird gap in time
when alternative music went from
heavy metal to alternative to now
these indie outlets
i don't know
i went to a beer fest this weekend

yes! I loved all those bands! especially janes and depeche mode.
I remember asking for 'ritual' for christmas in 11th grade. my pop said the original cover made santa blush, but I did get the other version at least.
for about a month in high school i was really into Ministry. and I liked Primus -- which embarrasses me still.
god what else...
the dead milkmen
1000 maniacs
the church
I wasn't cool enough to like the pixies before 1993. can't claim that.
even though he's from a different era, my soundtrack for high school one year was leonard cohen. but only 'the best of'
Funnily enough, I have seen The Dead Milkmen in concert within the last 6 months. I sort of missed out on Jane's except for the radio stuff, but I loved NIN. I don't really want to get too into this conversation though as I don't want to be like "I remember when that album came out when I was in 5th grade...." or whatever and make anyone feel old.
i promise i will take no offense nor make such obvious commentary. i know you all are a bunch of young'uns.
i liked 'pretty hate machine' a bunch, but i lost interest after than.
the fixed and broken albums were great. primus was good stuff. hell my first concert was tool. ugh. but they were actually pretty good to me at one point i guess. yeah i remember the whole 2 covers for ritual thing, kinda funny. perry farrell really was breaking new ground then. everyone these days is just a visual clone of something he pioneered. it was funny in the early 90's when piercings and tats started coming around. i didn't get into the pixies until after getting into modest mouse 98ish. i love the 90's
when my friends were playing a show in LA they kept getting unsolicited drinks from a maynard. during the set they joked aloud 'what if these were from maynard james keenan from tool?' and of course they were.
one of my friends got so drunk that night he jumped off the tour band and fractured his heel.
*off the tour bus
i liked it when album covers mattered. i remember staring transfixed into the eyes of the nagel girl on the rio record. i was 8 and it was an awakening.
don't you guys use itunes or foobar? Coverflow definitely rejuvenated the idea of album art for me.
yeah i use it but something like 83 percent of my music doesn't have the album art. i'm sure there's some way i could get it. i just don't care. cover flow is kinda gay to me but only because it's so bare on my mac/pod.
i thought the dead milkmen guy was dead? lilass is LYING
