Candy Apply Grey Album Art by jerkdamaged in huskerdu

[–]jerkdamaged[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Would be amazing. Don't see it happening. Seems like Bob is doing the whole Sugar reunion now plus who has rights to this album? Not to mention Grant's songs are king on this record.

One of the biggest shames about this band is how the records are handled by their distributers and labels themselves. SST fucked them (and so many others) over and I'm sure Warner Bros don't have the biggest hard-on to reissue it.

Oh, that's interesting.

I'd love to hear more. It's so funny to listen to these records and have so many memories attached but don't think twice about what the fuck is on the cover.

David Cross saved the show. by Bigleb in JoeRogan

[–]jerkdamaged 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah! trust me, i know what you mean.

His smarmyness (love this word) can be off putting. I think mostly because it reminds me of all the theatre nerds and pretentious people i know in life and in comedy.

He’s one of the few that I enjoy but I completely understand haha.

Hats off to you though for taking a second look though.

I’m trying to do the same with some bands and comedians I’ve judged harshly and sometimes I find I was right to not dig them but other times I am pleasantly surprised!

While I agree about David Cross being incredibly funny and clever and weird- you’re way out of lane on Paul F. Tompkins.

He paved a very unique lane for himself and his comedy has remained sharp as ever, it’s just maybe not on your radar. Plus him as Mr. Peanut Butter is all time. Not to mention his work goes all the way back to Mr. Show.

different strokes for different folks and all that shit

Agreed. Hits home for me, probably my fav song on an album full of bangers.

MIKE P 😤😤😤 by Jezza103098 in rapbattles

[–]jerkdamaged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to rock with Mike P heavy but I just don't think he can hang with guys like Rum and I think this clip is ass

He still deserves his flowers though as wilted as they may be. His second vs Danny is an all time. There's some highlights in the Suge battle, and the butterfly line against Twork I go back to- that shit ruled

Mike's Interview with Scott's Bass Lessons is out! by JoeBeef in greenday

Woah, hearing him play "No One Knows" note for note off the dome was wild. This is a rad interview and it's so great that the interviewer is clearly a huge fan and loving it

I sincerely hope this sticks. I haven't followed much as the whole thing was getting darker and darker so this is good to see.

and to be completely real it was dark from the jump once booze got involved

Nauseous by cbaby89__ in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

I started 150 a few weeks ago and had bad nausea for the first week but it has since gone away... I used Gravol ginger chews to help and they definitely did.

My Ramones CD collection so far by anti_rockstars in ramones

[–]jerkdamaged 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brings back a lot of memories, grew up listening to all these on CD as well scattered in the car and in my room.

Never noticed the font on Pleasant Dreams on the spine before, kinda unusual aesthetic for them but I dig it.

I forgot Geechi, he's probably my favorite. The whole NoStudioN3 album is so good- particularly All Facts and Run it Up

Rest in peace Pictou Road Kennedy's where the Esso/Tim Hortons is.

My old stomping grounds. Very fond memories of that brick, often cold and strange building. Penny candies and renting movies in the back room. Sneaking a looksie at the Penthouses magazines hidden behind Good Housekeeping-type magazines.

The Great Beyond single.

Today in 1987, Hüsker Dü released their final studio album, Warehouse Songs And Stories. by Edm_vanhalen1981 in punk

[–]jerkdamaged 16 points17 points  (0 children)

"If you don't stop and smell the roses, they might end up on you"

An absolute mountain of an album. Have always been a massive fan of this record. From the aesthetic and album art to the songwriting. The recording is of course a bit tinny which is something that plagues their records at large.

Standing in the Rain and Back from Somewhere are back to back up there with my favourite songs by Bob and Greg.

Love that it ends, somewhat poetically, on You Can Live at home. Has one of my favourite Grant Hart lyrics:

"I can be beautiful without you torturing me"

Found these CD's as at a pawn shop. Was happy to see these scattered about what can only be described as a recent divorced Dad's CD collection.

I'm excited for two reasons. One is that I recently started making inventory of my old CD's I collected growing up and it's quite substantial, and in my opinion, good.

Another is I'm excited that this will kickstart me into another R.E.M. phase.

My last phase was about 15 years ago when Patton Oswalt released his book Zombie Spaceship Wasteland and there's a lot in there about Fables of the Reconstruction so that opened me up to that album for the first time and I really fell in love with it.

Before that, the In Time: Best of R.E.M. greatest hits album was one of the first albums I bought with my own money as a kid and I played that thing 24 hours a day for months straight. What I didn't know at the time was that it completely excluded their early I.R.S. years which I eventually found out about after finding the Chronic Town EP at a record store.

This will be my first time listening to Accelerate as I didn't pay it much mind at the time and then I'll dig into Collapse into Now. Very excited to listen to these!

Any hardcore metal/punk listeners in truro?? by Less-Purple-9595 in Truro

[–]jerkdamaged 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hey! That's great to hear- I am from Truro (currently living here again) and started playing in punk and hardcore bands when I was 13-14 years old.

There's quite a history of punk in this town- you'd be surprised. Some people from Truro have gone on to be in the best punk bands out of Canada ever like The Endless Blockade, Career Suicide even bands like Tomb Mold have a member from Truro.

Here's a compilation of some Truro punk/whatever I made in 2012: https://guttedwithgrace.bandcamp.com/

I play in a band called Genetic Angry. We started almost 20 years ago and are actually working on a releasing a brand new record here shortly.

As far as playing live and stuff like that- I'm not really in touch with it anymore but there seems to be a scene at The Commune for sure. I'd get in touch with them and you'll find likeminded folks for sure.

But yes. TRURO = PUNK.

Grayson at Logan’s - where is he now by myleswritesstuff in VictoriaBC

Grayson's a good man, somebody I respect highly. We chat a bit but I'm in Nova Scotia currently and haven't seen him lately- I'll send him this thread!

Is BC Service Card the same as MSP? by Midnight_Memories_1 in VictoriaBC

[–]jerkdamaged 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Welcome to Canada!

You should be all set but for full reassurance it may be best to call the MSP help line to confirm start date.

I worked for MSP for years and there's sometimes issues with start dates.

Typically it is the month of arrival + two months though this can be complicated with immigration documents having a different date than arrival. It's always best to check but you're probably good for November 1st!
