If you want your mind blown you should listen to their new wave/synthpop

(yep that’s Al)

Actually really good. Al hates it now.

Their electroindustrial a little later on was even better (really good actually, I think their best work, segues right in to Revolting Cocks’ “Big Sexy Land”). Starting to get there by '84:

to full-on electroindustrial by '86:

That dude has been stylistically all over the map.

A day early, but I needed a pick me up. The song that made me want to play bass. Simple, silly, and catchy.

That’s a hell of a bass line! I’ve never heard of MxPx, but dang, that’s worth learning!

The story is that the bass line was what the bassist/lead singer would play to pass the time everytime the guitar player broke a string (which I guess he did quite frequently) . Eventually it morphed into a song.

If I wasn’t playing bass, I would pick up a Shamisen. That percussive note0really cuts through a mix

Beni is a very good player

A song by a woman who was refused piano lessons as a child because she wasn’t talented.

Probably a good thing, she might have sucked if given lessons.
Necessity is the mother of invention.

Could be right. She wanted to be classical musician and had to settle for being an icon.

I saw them in Bristol in the late 90’s. A mate dragged me along, never listened to them. Very impressed. I now have their back catalogue.

Same guy also dragged me along to Pendragon. Same result.

I’d forgotten about them @Barney ! It actually wasn’t a bad time for rock

the 2 songs that made me want to play bass, when I was about 10 years old were, the beginning of this song,
and
the middle section / interlude of the 2nd song.

Plus, any day is a good day for a little Vandalism

“Wannabe Manor”
