I see what you mean Red Temple, about Motorhead and where they fit into the metal family tree.  I wasn't tryin to say they were punk, really.  But they do seem to embody that punk kinda unsophistication, physically and musically.  They're very style is a mockery of convention.  I think that's punk too.  Know what I mean ??

If you would have justice in this world, then begin to see that a human being is not a means to some end.  People are not commodities.  When human beings are just to one another government becomes obsolete and real freedom is born; SPIRITUAL ANARCHY.

Quote from: ""RTP2k3""
Jagermeister--"Master of the Hunt"


I don't think of Motorhead as punk at all--I think they are the bridge between Sabbath and later New Wave Metal bands from England, like Judas Priest (who actually predate Motorhead, but wwere influenced by their sound), Iron Maiden and Angel Witch.  They basically took Sabbath's power chords and  added Motorhead's fast playing to it, with crisper guitar leads.

Motorhead= English slang for 'speed freak'.


I get it!  Thanks man, didn't know that.  Motorhead = Speedfreak, cool.

Motorhead is pretty rudimentary though, compared to Priest and Maiden, even compared to Sabbath.  They're musical style might even be more punk than metal.

Yeah, I could see that.  ANd for a long time they were bastards, outsiders in that they didn't really fit into the mainstream or even many subgenres of the day.  Misfits, as it were.   I don't think of them as a punk band, but I know a lot of punks liked them.  When I saw them they covered "God Save The Queen", a punk song (if the Pistols are punk, that is, right, Frod....?) so I guess, they have some of that aesthetic in them.  Labels suck anyway, music is etither good or bad, and I likie a lot of both types.

Goo is a cool album, probably their last good rock album. It followed their all-time best work, Daydream Nation. I'm going to see if I can get a hold of some Slint and see what I remember of them. I didn't know the Eurythmics did the soundtrack to that (I found out they did when I googled the album to see if it had "I Want It All" on it.)

And I got this idea to use this album cover as the back drop to a puppet show that I've been workin on starring the toys I keep on my kitchen shelves: Ernie and Bert (vintage finger puppets) and The Pillsbury Dough Boy and R2-D2, King Kong, Mickey Mouse and a small plastic frog wearing a crown and some other childhood archetypes.  Altogether there are three different but related scenes depicted on the various panels of this triple album.  Scenes of a cosmic dawn.  Perfectly scaled to the size of my kitchen toys.

Scene 1 will open on Ernie and Bert as they are making their way through the wilderness; a desert, or perhaps the rainforests of India.  They are seeking enlightenment but are presently absorbed in their conversation concerning the status of the faulty faucet in their bathroom halfway round the world in an apartment in NYC.  Just then do they become aware of their surroundings.  They have walked into a clearing in the jungle or an oasis in the desert  ( A statue of a meditating Buddha is in the background).    They have travelled a long, long ways.  They are tired and weary, like that scene from the original "4 Feathers" where the dude and his blind friend are struggling across the desert!   :lol:

Pillsbury Dough Boy approaches Ernie and Bert just after they stop talking about their leaky faucet back home in New York and begin to look around..."You have come seeking enlightenment, but you must first pass the Tiger from Masters of the Universe..."

"ROOOOooo- -aaAAARRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I'm not givin away the whole plot right here, right now.  It won't be that long though.  I'm gonna keep it under 12 minutes.  What I was thinkin was that when we go down to FLA to ask the DFAF about our files and ask if we could speak to Mrs. Sembler 'n' all that we could also have our puppet show on DVD and ask her to watch it with us...

"We're doin a documentary on cults and we were wonderin if we could talk to Mrs Sembler about the relationship between DFAF and $tr8 Inc...and ...also we have this puppet show we'd like her to watch with us if she could."  

Of course we would have 2 of our own cameras runnin the whole time too...filmin it all.  I'm thinkin of recruitin Frod and Rtp as cameramen.  Still looking for someone to play the role of the Michael Moore parody character.  Contact me if you think you're up tp the part.

Anyway I have this great vision of this whole thing and through the medium of the puppet show I can say whatever I want.  Dig ??  I can make all my social and political commetary straight to her.  

She'd never watch it though.  Not with us all there with 2 cameras filmin.  But could you picture the scene ??  There we'd be in Mrs Semblers office at the DFAF headquarters watchin the puppet show starrin the kitchen toys of the pirate as they talk shit.  Mrs Sembler and I would be sittin on the couch.  Rtp could be filming the scene as Froderick documented the project with his camera.  The Michael Moore parody character would be sittin on top of a 3 drawer metal filing cabinet eatin a bag of nachos just in the back corner of Mrs Semblers eye as she wondered awkwardly and rather uncomfortably what she should think!!!   :rofl: .

Well anyway.  I'm gonna be workin on the script.

Rush--Feedback This is fucking hilarious!  It's great, really cool.  I mean that.  Rush covering The WHo, Love, Buffalo Springfield, The Yardbirds, and other classic rock pioneers, it's awesome.  I hate Rush now, but I really liked them back when I was a 14 year old motocross bike riding pothead.  This is the absolute coolest thing they have done in years.  I mean, they're still Canadian, and it shows, but this is almost as cool as Trailer Park Boys. It must be the lenient Canadian view on WEED that is causing this cultural rennaissance to the north of us.  This is a cooler Rush record than anything else they have ever done, they're still dorky and Canadian, but this is an awesome record.

Siouxsie & The Banshees - Kaleidoscope

The Who - Live at Leeds (deluxe edition, disc 2) There's a lot of good music on those two CDs that was left off of the original LP release. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the vinyl medium as much as the next old dude but this is a damned good release..
