Which Uzeda record is the one n' only? I have two and know of at least three more...


Different Section Wires is the only full length of consequence that I know of. There's also the 4 EP, which is good. The first one, Out of Colours, but I think we all know about that.


Yeah, the less said about Out of Colours, the better...the peel thing's pretty good, though. I suppose it's not exactly a record in the vinyl sense, but worth my £0.99.

Groove is in the Heart by Dee-lite is exactly as great as the opening bassline in Willpower by Today is the Day. I'll bet you didn't expect to see those songs compared when you woke up this morning.

Speaking of Waiting Room, does anyone know the story about how HR from Bad Brains was involved in getting that song licensed for an NBA Sportscenter type clip?

Night Goat by the Melvins is my favorite. That and the incredibly simple one at the end of Wispy. No, wait. It's Shoved. That's the best one. Boy, for a band that's had like 11 bassists or something, the Melvins have had some pretty great basslines.

You know what? This topic is too all over the map. I am going to start my own topic.
