we jammed out to the juggernaunt rides greatest hits thing on the way home the other night.

the songs i like from them i really, really like. the ones i dont like i really, really dont like. but i really, really like a lot of their songs and of course i love the guitars.

really, really not crap.

I was stunned how so many people thought Skrewdriver weren't crap until I looked more carefully.

oh, the whiteness of it all....

Hhhmmm, so I heard that they couldn't CUT it live !
Maybe the sound systems at those venues that they played couldn't adapt to their out-of-this-world guitar melange !
Who's FUCKING care !!!!!!!

True, they used tons of heavy noise, hiding all those melodies inherent in their songs !

I just fucking love their name !
Love their fucking rasta, greasy, not-taking-shower-for-days...persona !
Adapt to their music PERFECTLY !!!!!!!!!

RAISE is FUCKING brilliant !!!!!!!!!! It's like a journey into orbit, getting lost in space, discovering hidden planets along the way...adventurous, dramatic...then back down to earth with a fucking smooth landing !!!!
....And we would expect that they would crash-landing with a big bang !
Not the case.

MEZCAL HEAD is a good follow-up, loud guitar aplenty...but the songs are just going nowhere !
Melodies are more hidden beneath the songs, like we have to play them FUCKING out loud just to get the drift.

Ejector Seat Reservation is almost back to fucking basic.
The loud guitar is more tuning, more accessible...
BUT they go back a few decades...
Beach Boys, Byrds-ian melodies 'la-la-ing' their songs, even The Shirelles tweeness are done in good measure !
The scenario is like a 60's band playing loud guitar, for a 90's generation !

99th Dream : Fucking Crap !
Simply because I haven't heard it yet !

Now, see here, young FUCKING SLLLLLAAAAAAACCCCKKKEEEEERRRR!

Listen before pronouncing judgement. I do it all the time. This is called due dilligence.

I always wondered why these guys weren't more popular than they were.

Oh my FUCKING GOD,...you just answered your own judgement !

They weren't more popular maybe simply 99th Dream is just SO FUCKING CRAP !!!!!!!???
I said maybe because I haven't heard that fucking album !

I could wait till all you FUCKING SLAAACCCKKKKEEERRRSSS are shot dead !!
Then, I could make that album as some kind of celebration...99th Dream indeed !

Question: Why the FUUUUUUUUUCKKKK do you post here?

Sincerely,

Rimbaud

...And why the FUUUUUCCCCKKKKKKKK do you fucking bother to barge in at all ???

YOU MOTHERFUCKER !!!!!!!!!!!

YOU MOTHERFUCKER !!!!!!!!!!!

I 'barge in' because you intrigue me. Your incessant posts, with their curious syntax and wanky belligerence genuinely confuse me. You don't like us 'SLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKKKERS', yet you're happy to share your opinions (and your playlists) with us nonetheless.

It's a serious question. I'll even do you the courtesy of rephrasing it without the expletive:

Why do you post here?

I'm not interested in derailing this thread any further, so give me a sincere answer to the above and we'll draw a line under this, what do you say?

Yours,

MR Motherfucker

Good, but I think that M. Motherfucker would be great. Sort of sexy and sophisticated.

M. Motherfucker pulled the chair out for Mme Fleur Poubelle and nodded to the pianist who started playing their song. "I like to move it, move it..."
The Cristal Rosé chilled quietly behind him in the shiny bucket.
With an unknowable glint in his charcoal left eye, he lit her Davidoff with his gilt Dunhill lighter. This night was so young...

Swervedriver: I would check them out were the recordings not being sold at rather high prices. I saw Skyscraper about twelve years back, who were fine. This is, of course, a pathetic attempt to address the topic. But I try!
