^^^ Voodoo Child is probably my all time favorite, but really, there is no bad Hendrix.

"...I'm standing next to a mountain,
I chop it down with the edge of my hand..."

Fuuuuuuck. Yes. To be the "voodoo child". The mind boggles...

I actually know someone who doesn't like Jimi Hendrix. Can't get into him. Just can't -- doesn't like it, doesn't get it.

That person is a fucking moron. It's a tragedy. Otherwise, this is a pretty bright gal. But in this particular instance, staggeringly dumb. What can ya do?

Anyway, tonight I was listening to the amazing genius that is Steve one-two-fuck-you Albini...

Behold.

Like, seriously, a whole era of terrible music floundered pitifully trying to do this kind of music (notable near misses: Skinny Puppy, Ministry, after they unfortunately reinvented themselves...).

Other than Jay Reatard's utterly amazing Terrorvisions album (which he referred to as "electro-punk" if memory serves), I find most bands who try to make thise kind of racket ("Industrial"?) to be a bunch of pretentious poseurs (I'm talking to YOU Maynard J. Keenan, you twat).

I'll take noise/grindcore/undefinable mess (e.g., Napalm Death, Doom, Melt Banana, et al) any day over that shit.

Trent's okay, tho'. I give him and NIN a general pass (for whatever my stupid opinions are worth. Not much, I suppose....)

I'm listening to my WV hill-billie co-worker boring me to death with his NO-STOP chatter. I need ear-plugs and ear-muffs! Maybe some duct-tape, and a pair of old socks too!!!

Hmm -- remastered? I'll have to see if I can find that. Fantastic album ("Bitch" and "Sway" are among my favorite Stones songs).

NB: If you like Iggy Pop, beware the somewhat recently Bowie re-mastered version of Raw Power. He absolutely murdered that album.

Part of the amazing energy in that whole album due to the discordances, distortion, and odd blending of instruments -- and Bowie took all of that out.

He even removed the xylophone from "Penetration", which was very unusual, distinctive, and created a neat contrast to what is otherwise a very gritty and passionate song.

But, Bowie is immortal, and a demigod of some sort (and possibly the supreme ruler of the Guild of Calamitous Intent), so I suppose I have to just let it go...

************************************************** ********************
Ah, the B-52's... what a cool, crazy band.

If you haven't heard it before, find Peter Griffin's cover of Rock Lobster -- hilarious

I think there's a variation on that of his called "Iraq Lobster" too

Although Peter's all-time best song has gotta be "Cowboy Butt-Sex"
