BUT , IT WAS EASY FOR STRUMMER , THO' I AGREE WITH WHAT HE SAID ,
 TO SAY THAT ABOUT THE STATE OF AFFAIRS IN WORKADAY AMERICA , WHEN THE CLASH WERE AT THE PEAK OF THEIR POPULARITY , OVER HERE , and could have sustained themselves very nicely on a 6 months to a year Visa , if they could have obtained one.... 

On the other hand ,between their own tour , The Who tour , The US Fest , plus that huge festival in Jamaica , 82 - 83 was A VERY busy time for The Clash in The Western Hemisphere..... I DOUBT IT MADE THEM THE GAZILLIONAIRES PEOPLE PERCIEVED THEM AS BEING.

 I guess he'd already done his fair share of bitching about how things were'nt any better in Britain or on the continent.

I don't know who that is , but Tex Edwards had a song about new (As of 15+ years ago.)  gun laws making gun - related suicide retroactive , meaning Kurt Cobain could live again. It was kind of abstract. OK , VERY ABSTRACT. The lyrics were later changed , to have nothing to do with guns or Kurt Cobain,.

Too Many People - The Leaves (Deadmoon did a great version , too).

"And the last thing I'll ever do , to prove that I'm a man like you is work from 9 to 5 , tryin' to keep myself alive , and worry just because that's what everybody else does , and  concentrate my time tryin' to make myself a dime , and wear a suit and tie when I'd rather sit and die."

Lazy - Deep Purple.   Self - explanatory.

Teacher's Pet - "Then I got myself a real job. But , still I was a fucking slob. Killed my boss , he told me to get a haircut !" .........Then .....well , it gets better .

5 to 9 by FIDLAR. Because nobody in the band has a 9 to 5. It's not exactly taking it "easy", but it is about shirking responsibility, drinking and recreational drug use.

Everybody hates the daily grind. Some people hate it enough to sing about it. Mojo Nixon for instance has "Ain't Got No Boss," The Pleasurelegience," and a host of songs about drinking and recreational drug use. What are your favorite songs about shirking responsibility, and just basically takin' 'er easy like The Dude would do?

Hey,

The Swamis are starting to record their second record, and hopefully this time around we will be releasing vinyl. Probably going to go for LP, but a 7" or 10" are not out of the range of possibilities.  So before we have a bunch of finished tracks, trying to figure out our options regarding vinyl mastering/ plating of a record.  I have released 4 records, prior to the formation of the swamis.  But, in every instance I have or contracted someone to master for vinyl release and the pressing plant (URP, and a couple others) have done in house mastering/plating.  Wondering if anyone has used a company or individual that does a great job doing the plating (metal parts).  Not really looking for mastering the audio alone, because I would like the person mastering our record to be the individual plating our record.  Make sense?  Can you recommend anyone that offers this kind of services?  Just trying to figure these things out, when I mix the tracks I can follow the audio specifications (ie. most want highest peak at -3db) of the person mastering/plating.  Thanks for the help!

i don't like deep voiced women as a general rule , but I do like Gale Garnett.

To Tersicore: I saw Mary Woronov , once , and it was embarrassing. She did a question and answer thing , and people asked her the stupidest questions imaginable , like  "Which members of The Ramones did you have sex with?"   "NONE!!!!!" .....Then , someone asked , "Which members of The Velvet Underground did you sleep with?"   She said , "Well , of course , NONE ! But , Nico asked me if I'd like to sleep with her , and she was a beautiful woman , but , I don't like women , so , I said , no.

I guess I don't really like deep voiced women. It sounds like it'd be an interesting story though.

Tersicore said:

Au contraire!... I´m totally shooooooocked!! Outch!  

You say you don´t like Nico´s singing?, OK, I´m fine with IT and I´m not picking at you!! But I can tell you something: She had such a beautiful voice while talking!!! So sexy and deep...  I was lucky enough to spend a whole night with her (No! not having sex with her, you perverts!!).  But a lot better: Alk, stuff and talk...whatever, none of your business ;)   more important then her strong voice: she was simply such a beautiful person!! You would love her voice that much as well, if you just got to know her! :)
Rest in Peace, Christa. :*

I don't think this will be shocking but, I hate everything The Velvet Underground did with Nico, I hate it, I can't stand it, is it her voice, idk, I just don't like it.

What happens when a label like Lookout goes bust? I mean with most independents that are successful they get bought out and then the majors sit on the back catalogue until some kind of cult revival makes it worth re-releasing some album.

Where do all the rights to the records go?

Yeah, I also dug a lot of the LOOKOUT stuff, Smugglers, Donnas, Phantom Surfers... all are the shit.

Thinking of it, Kepi Ghoulie was just in town, playing solo. But I wasn't, so...

This is not a new record, but I want to write about it because -in my opinion- it might be the best record ever to come out of Copenhagen.

doesn't have much to do with garage - this is punk that makes you wanna ride your bicycle as fast as possible into a tree, just for the action. it's so pumped with energy- its impossible to get bored.

originally released in 2002  you might still be able to find one from the repress in 2007

For our practice space, we were initially happy with a low-end drum kit we got from Craigslist (about $150-200) after we had tuned up the heads. 

Later on, when we upgraded the cymbals with set of new Zildjians (about $200), the difference was incredible.

This suggests $300-350 is a good range

yeah what this guy said ^^^^^, craigslist is the way to go.  don't sell your self short,  get a nice kit that will last and become part of you.  as a active drummer my self, i wouldn't go near a Sound Percussion kit, those drums are garbage.

Ddrums are ok, but i can't stand there hard ware and they look a little cheap to me personally.

I see good Ludwig, Gretch, and TAMA kits go for 350-400 all the time on CL. hell even some of those pearl kits are good to...

good luck

That must have been the first time they played out. I appreciate what they're doing...putting the ol' 70s fantasy/myth/space back into metal (where it should always be). Lots of metal bands are doing that recently. So, their first album came out in 2006, and Apocryphon just came out in 2012. Here's the Veil of Isis (Is she taking crack rock/black rock and then coming back to avenge herself afterwards or using magical powers on pancho man before?.. Beavis and Butthead need to review this video)... The Sword - The Veil of Isis

Thanks for the links, always looking for good metal.

The Sword instantly got a great rep. in Austin, God, it must be like 9 or 10 years ago. Nice.

I hope I'm not repeating something someone else said, but in terms of actual stoner RAWK which I LOVE......

The Sword here: The Sword - Freya

High on Fire - Thraft of Canaan: High On Fire - Thraft of Canaan

Okay, this is full on doom metal, but this particular tune by Goatwhore, gets the stoner drum breakdowns: Goatwhore - Alchemy of the Black Sun Cult

I guess I'm showing all my cards. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE stoner, metal and yesss doom (how can you not like doom and say you like metal?).... oh yeah, Louisiana (Goatwhore), Texas (The Sword) and California (High On Fire)..
