trdn89 posted:I can't argue with any of this, but SHTV does have its moments of utility. Some folks over there actually do know good music; threads over there directly led to Arnold's Hillside, Velvet Crush's Teenage Symphonies To God, Mary Margaret O'Hara's Miss America, and a bunch of other great albums living on my shelves now and forever. It's also a very useful resource if you want to sperg out and find the best possible pressing of a record; I would never have known to seek out the Horzu pressing of Magical Mystery Tour or Bob Ludwig's cut of The Stranger (haters can eat a dick, I love this album). Oh wow, thanks for this, Velvet Crush owns.

The Melvins had two bassists for a while, and they rule (and the records with 2 bassists are really good)

Giga Gaia posted:Their new album Basses Loaded has 2 or 3 for some reason. Because after they fired Kevin Rutmanis, Buzz and Dale decided to just use guests. Hence using Trevor Dunn on Freak Puke, JD Pinkus on Hold it In, and that dude from Redd Kross on 3 Men and A Baby. I think Basses Loaded is different bassists on different tracks rather than multiple bassists on individual tracks, though. Apparently there was a tenative plan to work with Dave and Krist (hence Krist being on Basses Loaded) on an album of Nirvana covers, but only Krist showed up to the rehearsals and Dave decided to do that song with Paul McCartney instead....

My guess regarding the delay on Licensed to Ill is that as the they've gotten older, they've seemed kind of ashamed of some of the stuff they've said on that album. My understanding is that other than "No Sleep Til' Brooklyn", they rarely played cuts off of that record. There was also a lawsuit between them and Rick Rubin (Rubin hosed them out of some money, quelle surprise), that might have had something to do with it.

caligulamprey posted:I'd probably buy the soundtrack to Severed, but that's because Yamantaka // Sonic Titan is fuckin' dope. You just inadvertently helped me by talking about this, because I was trying to remember the name of Yamantaka //Sonic Titan and couldn't for the life of me, even tried the help me find this song thread. So thanks!

The Dark Project posted:Just wondering what people's methods are for choosing vinyl from artists they have never heard from before. Say you go to a swap meet or garage sale and thumb through a stack of LP's, and you find a bunch from artists that you've never heard of. What drives your decision to purchase or not. Is it the album art, the song list? Do you google or look for them on spotify or youtube to see if you can hear a track or two? Or do you prefer to go in blind and see if you can fluke a gem and find something really interesting and cool for yourself without checking every single thing about the artist out? Bandcamp is very helpful, you can play stuff on the band's page and buy direct from the artist
