this was about a week after i broke my nose in half so i had to stand at the back and observe. if you look at mouthpiece's last 7" cover, a couple of my friends are on the cover singing along onstage. there was a version of that picture whre you could see me standing off in the back.

there was a popular band called Floorpunch, and this show was the show where the members decided to start a band.

we almost drove off the road on the way home that night.

Then talented musicians combined it with Pop Punk and sold millions of records. It's okay to admit some ppl are more talented than others and "it's a vibe" isn't enough to reach the pinnacle.

DC and LA from 1979 - 1984 shaped hardcore as we know it today.

coming up in the 90s DC HC scene was really cool though. we got so many great shows coming through. i saw all the bands many times - shelter, 108, mouthpiece, outspoken, into another, snapcase, strife, lifetime, undertow, unbroken, mean season, integrity, etc etc etc.

and the shows were dangerous - i've seen guns pulled and have been maced multiple times. it was very different back then.

at one show, at the safari club, in 1996 or so, this fat girl from my hs was walking across the street to the venue and an obese black bitch in a saturn hit her. the fat girl flew up in the air LOL. the lady stopped for a second but thought better of staying and i heard her say "naw, fuck all yall white muthafuckas" and she peeled out.

anotehr time, also at the safari, my friend was waiting in line to get in and this homeless nig straight knocked him out. clocked him when he wasn't looking. lol.

What does it say about me and/or my innate golden retriever-ishness for better or worse that while I like all of the Pavement albums, I LOVE Terror Twilight

To be clear it's the original U47 with the tube transformer, not the modern FET version.

The French indie rock band Phoenix used the exact Harrison 4032 recording console that mixed Michael Jackson's legendary 1982 album Thriller to mix their fifth studio album, 2013's Bankrupt!

The Connection

Guitarist Laurent Brancowitz found the historic mixing console listed on eBay.

The band bought it for $17,000 from a studio owner in California and shipped it to Paris.

They briefly considered naming their album Alternative Thriller as a nod to the gear.

They did not try to recreate the Thriller sound, but wanted to work with a unique piece of music history.

tl;dr it's obviously the best one despite Stephen Malkmus being a narcissist and hating on it because Nigel Godrich made it Too Good

it's the one i listen to most now.

i've gotten autistically obsessed with a few artists in my life where i listened to nothing but that band/artist for about 2-3 years.

they are as follows, in order: the smiths/morrissey, the beatles, pavement, the rolling stones, iron maiden
