We're cool man. We're cool.

Sorry, Steve. I just couldn't find it in stock anywhere near my place. I'll buy it if I bump into one. Or you might as well play a show over here in Kuala Lumpur and sell me a copy.

Fuck. I have to agree with you.

I'm not a fan of Fugazi's pre-Red Medicine stuff, although I really like everything they did after about 1994.

Liking The Killers is where the line is. The fact that thread has "conffesion" in its title doesn't mean that you are supposed to write the most embarrassing and personal stuff here. That's just uncomfortable to read, and sucks the joy out of posting on PRF. Cause in the middle of writing something I suddenly think: "Shit! This is gonna be read by people who like The Killers". It's not a nice feeling at all, so drop it.

I think people should have to agree with him.

Anyone who likes the Killers has their head up their ass.

I cannot stand that band. I'm sorry to be such a douche about it, but I really despise them with a passion.

I am the complete opposite.
I can't stand Red Medicine.

When I first heard Smells Like Teen Spirit played for the first time on John Peel I thought it was Sting and couldn't believe it was Nirvana

Although I love Fugazi, 13 Songs does nothing for me.

I think that Lightning Bolt are possibly the world's greatest band but I listen to Emiliana Torrini (someone I first heard after a friend recommened her after hearing her support Sting) an awful, awful lot more.

Hey - we should lay off the killers bashing. I mean, I hate them too, but this IS the confessions post. That said, they're a terrible, terrible band and this should in no way reflect my own taste.

I guess that means I gotta make another confession. ugh. Okay, I'll say I haven't listened to a lot of the newer Touch & Go releases, which makes me sad considering I absolutely love the stuff that's been put out by the label in the past. Maybe I should open my mind up a bit more (yeah right)

An alternate universe wherein Sting would start becoming very influenced by The Pixies and Hüsker Dü sometime around 1990 would have been an interesting, surreal universe indeed. I think I woud prefer that universe.
