Oh yeah, and Deja Voodoo!!!

Pretty sure the gateway drug for me was 'Heavens to Murgatroyd...' by Thee Headcoats!

Got any more lyrics?..........this is tantalizing.

I know this is probably a long shot, but here goes. About 20-ish years ago I found a mix-tape in my car with a lot of great hardcore from the mid to late 80's. There was no insert so I had know way of knowing who these bands were, but I played that fucker to death. Also, none of my friends claimed it, so, for all I know, it was in the car when I bought it. There is one song in particular that I would love to know who the band is. The words in the chorus are, "I'd make you understand if I could, only dreams remain where I stood." Can anyone help me solve this mystery?

Eegah!

just finished cheetah's book - yeah, it is great... i tried to read it slowly to make it last! but i had to finish it... love the band, love the guy's honesty... recommended

Cole - Buy me beer!

GG's early stuff is the sort I can take to any indie disco and people'll cut a rug to it. It's just good power pop, simple as that. Some of it's even quite humourous. Gimme Some Head and Assface make me laugh, just for their utter ridiculousness.

The later stuff is so bad it's good, just for its gonzo comedy value.

Sitting in for a friend who does a psych/prog/experimental industrial show tonight at 8pm.  I'm feeling out of my element to a degree.  Send me your positive waves.

Certainly the GFOP (godfather of PUNK) !

Great pictures!  Puts things in perspective... I think Iggy and Alice were on the same wavelength at the time. Spurred on by Jim Morrison. I think Iggy's style became more of the punk model of 70s-80s

Fahrvergnügen

Yes!!! Great list!!!

The NDW stuff I listened to as a kid now seems pretty shitty to me. Stuff like Markus or Nena - yuck. But about ten years ago I discovered the more underground stuff, and there's some very cool stuff there. I like Trio very much, Fehlfarben, the early Einstürzende Neubauten, and my favourite band is DAF. They really rock.

But the radio stuff... I don't know. It's nice, but, well... It was like thinking that Green Day was punk without knowing about punk.

OK, kids! Volume 6 (Noises From the Hideout) is now available! This will be the FINAL Hideout comp of 2011. That's right... IF there is to be a 7th volume (depends on the quantity and QUALITY of new submissions we get by Nov. 1), it won't come out until early 2012, anyway. So be sure and grab this one and tell all your friends!

is this thread stuck in a time warp from 2001?

THE WHITE STRIPES are fuckin awesome and are better than 80% of the bands discussed here.  has anyone that talked shit about them actually own any of their albums???  they put out some of the most brilliant rock n roll records in the past 15 years. and the live show was absolutely ELECTRIC.

Just spent 15 minutes writing my post and it got deleted, so I don't know how this one will turn out but I will try...Ok, so first of all I think a couple of the bands are slightly popular/ trendy, but not the genre. Most of the people I know either do not like it or don't know who the bands are. When I think about why it is that a couple/handful of the bands have managed to cross over into the mainstream my two favorite examples to use are White Stripes and Black Lips, both of whom have been discussed elsewhere on this board. If you think about each of these bands and how/why they got popular (and also take into consideration that we are talking about two different time periods here- WS in 2000/ early 2000's and BL in the later part of the decade) one thing that becomes obvious to me is that they both became successful because of some kind of branding or selling of a concept, none of which, if you really think about it, has anything to do with the music they are playing. (Some of you on here may be able to think of things such as the equipment they use or build, etc., that connects the image to the sound,  but remember that you already have a background knowledge about this that the general public does not, thus they probably won't consider it.) So with BL, think about how back before they were on Vice the garage community seemed a little stand-offish against them (even when they were on ITR). Well partly I think the reason for this may have been because they were so young and looked a little hipster-ish. (And also the fact that they have admitted in their interviews that in the old days they didn't even really know how to play and just relied on shock value at their shows.)So once they landed on Vice the kids went, oh, they look edgy or whatever, let's listen to this. With WS, ten years ago: WS was a buzz band, people thought it was cute. They thought all those bands from Sweden were cute. THEY WERE NOT. (Sorry Swedish GRH members.) Someone brought up the example of Oblivians and I think it is a great one, so I will use it again: These kids that like BL are not going to look at old Oblivians LPs and go, they look cool, I think I will listen to this- because they don't know the TIME PERIOD or the GENRE. And they don't care about it. Two more quick things then I will shut up- 1. The Mummies: for whatever reason for quite a long time it has seemed to me that if someone only knew one garage band, it was the Mummies. Usually these people were hipsters. If I think about another band a lot of people know, you have Man or Astroman. They are so big that people who like this band and do not like primarily garage refuse to acknowledge that they are a garage rock band. My suspicion is that it is because they don't know enough about the genre to know that MoA plays a sub-genre of garage. 2. Blaine: No we are not cool, for me what liking garage means is that people think you are weird and that your music sucks/ all sounds the same :)

tell us where we can go if our little cool club is ruined? and be quick about it. the fucking roof just blew off!

Most of these posts read like elite assholes.  Annoyed because people don't know as much about music as you do?  That's childish.  I hope, out of spite, garage becomes more mainstream and ruins your little cool club.

Man or Astroman's cover of The Rezillos "Destination Venus"

The original is so great I can't think of anyone who could improve on it.

I do like Man or Astroman a lot, apart from that cover.

Oh fuck yeah, I know exactly what you're talking about. It's like some disease at KDHX. And I hate it when bands play "ironic" covers of shit songs.

Read johnnys book,::: No Irish No blacks No Dogs :::

tells ya all about it.

Jaime Hernandez did a cover for The Makers and Sam Kieth did one for the Groovin' Ghoulies

any one know what the fuzz 1313 mockingbird lane used (the late 8os garage band not the house) also the rest of the guitar set up much apreciated

Just don't make music with the sole intention of making money.
