Hearing "Saints" gives me chills. I am just moony for that song.

Especially the version that's in the video.

I always thought it was "growing balls", referring to her balls-out bass playing on that song (and the rest of the album)...

Edit: I love the version of "Saints" on the Head to Toe EP, is that the same one? "I like sticky everywhere". I always thought it was "Someone is ready when you are...". I think Kim Deal does pure uncomplicated lust better than almost anyone else. Case in point: Roi "Raw: where the shot leaves me gagging for the arrow". Or maybe I'm just a perv.

Fantastic, fantastic band. There was a whole year in my youth when I listened daily to Last Splash and In Utero (the were on the same tape) with maybe a little bit of In On The Killtaker to even things out.

Great band. No waffles.

(I thought this had been figured out in the other thread??)

Thank you for proving my point even further

Don't you worry, I'm not taking this, or life in General too serious. In fact, my parents think that I'm not taking it not serious enough, but then, parents probably always think that.
If I would take it serious, I would probably try to endear myself.

You are making a troll argument for trolls.

Unlike your seedy friend who can't stop writing in schoolboy German, I believe you are well aware that your incessant logorrheic prattle is somewhat annoying and mildly depressing to people on here. You persevere because you are perfectly comfortable with conversations about fine rock bands turning in to conversations about your person.

It's not about "pluralism", it's about getting on people tits. You know this, and I already said too much.

its not me who does that.
honestly.
this is a crap/non crap forum
I call Title TK a lacklustre affair, which is really a mild comment, bearing in mind what bands are usually called in this section.
So Steve chips in and asks me kindly to stop talking out of my ass.
This is, I think you'll agree, where it gets slightly personal.
Predictably the usual suspects like Marsthingy and that other bloke jump onto the bandwagon, and as Marsthing said, he doesn't care about wether or not I like the Breeders, he just wants to take the opportunity to tell me what a fuckwit I am.

Therefore I find it slightly ironic, that you accuse me of turning this thread into a conversation about me.
Honestly, I could do without all that hostility.

Compared to the previous bands of the two most significant, original members (Throwing Muses and Pixies): CRAP.

Compared to 'indie-rock' in general: NOT CRAP.

I'd never buy a Breeders record, but I wouldn't vomit into my lap if they were playing on the car radio either.

Pure then.

I am really not interested in prolonging this conversation. Just this:

I don't think Steve asked you that because of your opinion on a Breeders record. I think Steve asked you that because you were making derogatory and grossly uninformed remarks about a personal friend of his. In other words, because you were talking out of your ass.

But hey, what do I know.

wow, this thread has taken some strange and uninteresting turns.

but The Breeders? a fine band. i'm surprised nobody's mentioned what a solid drummer Jim Macpherson is.

I'm a wee bit surprised by the general consensus that the Breeders were so much better than the Pixies.

Would we still be saying that if the Pixies had broken up immediately after recording Surfer Rosa (or perhaps Doolittle, but certainly not later than that)?
