R&P: Attention all contacts and regs, here's my song for 90s Friday!?

Honey Bucket is one of my favorites by the Melvins. It shows off Dale Crover's drums to great effect, and is a highlight on Houdini.

If you enjoy Houdini make sure you check out "A Live History of Gluttony and Lust" - it's the Melvins performing the Houdini album in its entirety, live, something they had never done before. Many of the songs on there were never performed live up to that point.

Definitely always happy to see more Melvins fans - they're in my top 5.

Thanks for sending me the link.

Fun fact: The bass player on Houdini was Shirley Temple's daughter.

BA: People obsess - it's a bit scary sometimes. Though, I do remember being particularly struck when I first heard of his death.

BA2: How about some Riot Grrl?

Bikini Kill, Babes in Toyland, Sleater-Kinney and the like

EDIT:

Oh, and I don't know if you've listened to Flipper - but they were an influence on the Melvins and Nirvana. Very drone punk.

What's up Lily?

Finally someone on R&P mentioned the Melvins, i listened to them so much when i was also obsessed with Nirvana, great band and Honey Bucket is undeniably a great song. But my favorite song by them A History of Bad Men.

Bq: I can understand how people make a big deal out of it, i mean i like The Beatles a lot, and i'm upset John and George are dead still, so if people want to miss Kurt go ahead, i miss him too, but yes you have to accept their passing.

BQ2: Did you do any Beck yet? if not he's great also, radiohead would be cool also.

I fogot to mention my day, i'm so happy it's Friday, long week of tests, and i had midterm exams all week, *yawn* and that was rough, and then in music class in school we had to sing Viva La Vida *sigh* and my history project got pushed back to be due to March 9th or sometime around then which is awesome, because i'm a procastinator. As for my weekend, i'm going to garage sale to find a record player, and i'm getting my last Beatles CD to finish my collection. So it's going alright. I'm going to watch Tallageda Nights on TBS tonight also.

As for your awwwwwww R&P, i answered this once it came up, it just took me real long to type all of this.

Hi Lily!

My day was really great! I got a 93 on my math retake today, so next week when we start clinical at the hospital I will be allowed to give medications to patients! Yay! Nursing school is tough!

My plans for the weekend involve alot of studying. I have a huge exam on Wednesday that I have to get a good grade on.

To answer about this song: I am not crazy about it, but I loved the intro.

Just not my taste.

BA: Yes, I think it is a bit much.

BA2: I will suggest one from one of my favorite bands from that time, the Gin Blossoms. Here is one of my favorites by them

Hey there!!

I have actually heard that song before! I am a youtube junkie!

1. I get VERY sick of people talking about Kurt's death. RIP--and leave it at that.

2. Song of the days-and it's a 90's one! (1993). It's by a band called Savatage, and it's called "Conversation Piece".

Well I'm not much of a reg, but I'm an occ and (BQ) yes, people go on way too much about Kurt's death. I'm really not much of a fan of the ones who continuously drag out conspiracy theories that he was killed by someone. Feel free to think what you will about it, but enough with the trying to push it on everyone. (Not saying I'm one way or the other on what really happened, just not my mission in life to try and prove it to everyone listening)

Anyway, getting to BQ2, my nominee is what I have to say is an underrated band, very familiar to Nirvana by chance.

Hey there, fellow Texan Lily!

I've never really been able to get into the Melvins. I love Mastodon, like Tool, but no the Melvins. Tsk, tsk.

BA: Yeah. Whenever I wear my Nirvana shirt, people ALWAYs poin to Kurt and go "Didn't he commit suicide?" It pisses me off...

BA2: Well, it's metal, but I think most of ya'll can handle it. It's only Machine Head.

I would vote down in a hole by alice in chains, since that is what I am listening to.

yeah, I love the melvins!

and I also completely agree. Just because you put R.I.P KURT!!!11! on your myspace/facebook doesnt make you "nirvana's biggest fan"

I bet Kurt would role over in his grave at the thought of people making such a big deal about it.

I must confess, it's just not my thing. I love a lot of other grunge bands (Soundgarden, Alice In Chains) and I'm a big Tool fan too.

BQ: Yes!

BQ2: Burden In My Hand - Soundgarden

Not sure it's underrated but it's one I like!

Awesome song. The Melvins are definitely underrated.

BA: I don't think theres anything wrong with caring. I care. Most people care about the deaths of their favorite musicians. I don't care more about his death than his music though, not by any means. I think it's ridiculous how much people talk about it though, and how people spin crazy conspiracy theories blaming Courtney and whatnot.

BA2: how about Pavement?

I'm sorry but I didn't like the song, I'm not really into metal to be honest.. But thanks for the link anyways =)

BQ: I can see how some people really want to know what happened, but it's ridiculous how they never stop talking about it. It becomes more of an obsession to know what happened, instead of mentioning that he might not have killed himself..
