    • Does anyone here use Songbird? As apposed to iTunes or any other music player? So far I've tried it and it's been great. The add-ons are all great and it can play practically any music file type both, AAC and WMA something iTunes/WMP can't depending on which you are using. It gives the user so many more choices. It even has an add-on for iPods though i haven't it yet. Anyone know how well it works with iPod?

    • MB=! How about BORIS? Realreal good doomy kind of Metal, with psych sprinkles. ...Not the best explanation, though haha. Seen live and loved. Brother Panti-Christ said:

      Yeaaaya... the Boredoms played in Bern in the 90's, Zorn did a couple times too, both of them mindblowers. Japanese are leading the front for the weirdest and wildest music, damn sure. Melt Banana is my faves, they are just toooooo damn weird.

      Then you should check out Melt-banana covering classic Detroit rock band The Dogs. I just posted "GST 483" on my profile, actually sounds kinda normal; for them! For more info, take a look at The Dogs tribute here: http://www.pacifictionrecords.com/japan/CD/VA_doggystyle.shtml Sorry if it sounds like self-promotion, but yes, I am trying to sell records!

    • The old Calabash Music, before they merged with something called Mondomix, had a couple of cool blues bands that infuse good old American blues with musical elements from their native lands. The pages for these groups are still there, but each says "this artist is no available for your country." Maybe some of you guys from outside the USA will have better luck. The Nightlosers are from Romania http://mp3.mondomix.com/nightlosers Then there's Istanbul Blues Kumpanyasi, http://mp3.mondomix.com/istanbulblues, which like the name implies, is blues from Turkey. You can hear a song from each (and a lot more crazy shit from all over God's green Earth) on my World Music podcast. As for the Stooges on Tuba, theres some info about The Ridiculous Trio HERE: http://cakeandpolka.blogspot.com/2005/02/ridiculous-trio-plays-stoo..., but the MP3 links no longer seem to work.

    • Hi there folks,
      Us creeps are a new Garage band from Austin, Texas.
      We've just self-released our debut album "Cave Girl"
      We're talkin' primitive Fuzz driven Garage stomp...
      Can I send a copy of our CD to your Radio Shows and Podcasts ?
      Cheers

    • The Tatts are doing shows ? Hell yeah...the last gig I saw before I split for Texas was seeing the fellas at the Annandale Hotel, that was in 2003. A band I was in The Navahodads (90s), we were luck enough to have Pete Wells play on a couple of tracks on our first album...RIP Wellsy.

      I completely agree. I get shit every time I bring this discussion up. Granted I love some of The Clash's tunes but there is something phony about strummer when he is being interviewed. I can't quite pin point it. But watch both The Ramones documentary ( End of the Century) and The Clash documentary (The Future is Unwritten) back to back and you might see what I mean.)

      I AGREE! I was again disapointed by The Future Is Unwriten, I want to love this guy, but he seems totaly uninspired like boring musiscians or something. If you see The Filth and the Fury (the Sex Pistols Dir by Julien Temple) the difference is striking (Lydon seems honest and inspired, and suprisely more "social" than Strummer. Excuse my bad english.
      I'm kinda with you on that one. I put it down to a bit of trendy west london self-concious cool. Include the politics and it puts The Clash somewhere between Bob Dylan and U2. That apart, I loved them at the time and they were boss live...

    • Bought mine yesterday. It's awesome. The A-Cads, The Invaders are both awesome. Also, lots of cool surf tunes.

    • Weird discussion just bought a copy of Cazumbi last week in Borderline records in Brighton England (obviously no use to a great many of you but you never know who's reading this shit!) Given it 3 or 4 plays gotta like the Conjunto De Oliveira Muge cover of the 'I had too much to dream last night" There are some duff tracks though! IDON MINE said:

      Gotta love the PERMANENT!
