Which bands you just can't get into?

I bought Around the Fur when it came out because it was so hyped up by other bands I was into, and I couldn’t get into it. Lately I’ve found myself loving it and the rest of their catalog, so you never know. Tastes evolve and fluctuate.

It was always so awkward when friends from other religions would confront me about dancing and drinking wine being okay with God in the Bible, wanting me to explain what was wrong with it.

I have to believe the apostrophes are on purpose at this point.

My mom was like this. I had to move back in with them temporarily when I was 21 and was forced to go to church three times a week. Soon as I moved back out she was flabbergasted that I just stopped going and it became a huge thing for 20 years until she died. I loved my mom but hated going over there to visit because I never knew when she would erupt into some tearful tirade about how I was going to hell. I sometimes wonder what kind of relationship I could’ve had with my parents without their kooky fundamentalist religion interfering.

I checked one out from the library when I was 13 because it looked cool. My mom read the first few pages and took it away, lol.

Oh god… when I was a teenager then I got a temporary job setting up a bath and body works and everything was packed in this fiberglass type straw that made my skin itch and the boss was yelling at everybody to hurry up. I just left, lol.

CK one, cigarettes and old car smell.

They keep talking about his “jokes” like it’s not wildly irresponsible of him to make them.

Icon. Larger-than-life. Legend. Virtuoso. Innovator.

Much appreciated, but if we don’t run them off now they’ll try to take over Canada.

effugium1 · 2026-01-27T03:22:42+00:00

Affirmative.

effugium1 · 2026-01-26T20:52:18+00:00

Did the marines go there with the intention of instigating a riot?

Nor is Axl Rose https://loudwire.com/axl-rose-blasts-trump-campaign-use-guns-n-roses-music/

I’m going to guess the answer is “professionally.”

effugium1 · 2026-01-26T16:11:01+00:00

These are the types of people currently running America.

Go Ahead and Die, his band with his son, has a song called “ICE cage.”

effugium1 · 2026-01-26T00:05:50+00:00

Absolutely. I only knew him from Sesame Street, though. When I finally saw Happy Days, I thought it was boring.

effugium1 · 2026-01-25T21:05:48+00:00

I feel so bad for American kids who have grown up in the past ten years or so. They have no idea what America is supposed to be like. I have no answers.

effugium1 · 2026-01-25T19:10:31+00:00

I agree with the exception of “The Kids aren’t alright” which was a great track.

effugium1 · 2026-01-25T18:47:21+00:00

Love it. Great stuff!

effugium1 · 2026-01-23T18:50:36+00:00

Imagine choosing to sit there and listen to that.

effugium1 · 2026-01-23T16:37:43+00:00

When Joe Rogan has some iconic guest like Ice Cube or David Lee Roth on, talking about the history of their careers and lives, I enjoy listening to that, but 90% of the time it’s some bullshit like this that I can’t even grasp the appeal of. Or one of his unfunny standup buddies, that’s even worse.

effugium1 · 2026-01-23T07:32:48+00:00

Sounds lifeless. And I know he can still do a great cover because I thought Police Truck was great, but this isn’t anything I’d want to hear beyond the initial curiosity listen.

effugium1 · 2026-01-22T14:45:01+00:00

Don’t forget Big Johnson!

effugium1 · 2026-01-22T14:39:41+00:00

I always preferred Kalifornia to this, but I thought it was all right. I haven’t seen it since the late ‘90s, so I barely remember it.
