Albums you love that no one one else cares about

the s/t 1994 Red Krayola album, one of my favourite records ever, converted me for life.

And Corrosion of Conformity's "Blind", a sentiment I don't expect to see echoed anywhere here.

I'm pretty sure I'll be alone on Return to Forever's "Hymn to the 7th Galaxy" too.

Tar's "Jackson" came to mind, as well as Fred Frith's "Gravity", but people who are into those respective niches of music seem to regard both highly.

Green River's Dry as a Bone and Rehab Doll.

Bundle of Hiss's Sessions: 1986-1988.

Love Battery's Dayglo.

The Mono Men's Wrecker! and Sin and Tonic.


Dayglo by Love Battery is excellent, as well as Wrecker! by the Mono Men. A lot of those old Seattle bands are really really good but have become overlooked. Girl Trouble's "Thrillsphere", The U-Men, TAD, Screaming Trees, etc..... they're all fucking excellent. I need to check out Bundle of Hiss. All the Green River shit I've heard is funtastic but they're all compilation tracks.

I know quite a few people who like the first Mr Bungle album. Kerrang gave it 5 'K' s!

The second one takes a few listens though...

Best Cows record. An old band of mine played a number of shows w/ them
between 1989-1991. Shannon broke both his arms at our drummers place
when he fell through the roof. They were having an affair. Then for the rest
of the tour Shannon had a person hold up his horns with sticks. Like, he'd
do a trumpet part and the horn would come out of the crowd, taped to sticks
(duct tape). He had two casts that held his arms out like a bird ready for flight.
Hard to follow that. :) My Dad's A Fucking Alcoholic was in the set at
that time. Probably one of my favorite live bands.


Can you imagine breaking both of your arms, then continuing to tour in a van, sleeping on people's floors, all of that good stuff - in that condition? What a trooper.

And I understand his horn was not the only thing that needed to be held for him from time to time. His band mates? Troopers.

We did this too!

It is good for hours of fun, especially when the radio game is wearing thin.

I dunno the real name for it, but it's basically crap/not crap with songs on the radio. There's a very specific set of rules, and often leads to vocal arguments about taste. Oftentimes, heads get smacked.
