<p>True, Martin could shred with the best of them if he got a chance.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Goulds bassline in that very cool as well.</p> -
<p>In funny stuff: because the album is by a Russian chap, some of the titles haven't come across quite soundly in English e.g. the track above is on the album as</p>
<p> </p>
<p>"Not Enough of Air"</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Along with some others like "Remembering Of Home" and "Don't Afraid!"</p> -
<p>Just when you thought you were safe from Michael Bolotin style vocals, here's something nearly as bad:</p>

This is bloody impressive, and made me dig out the Tears for Fears* best of CD too.<br><br><a class="bbc_url" href="

Is that an a actual instrument or something he made himself? -

<p>Yes. Yes they are. Only bad thing about them is the lead singer gets really bad sweat patches and is constantly brushing his hair out of his eyes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>They did some genuinely cool shit back in the day.</p> -

I hadn't heard of it till seeing that on Facebook. It's a hammered dulcimer: <a class="bbc_url" href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammered_dulcimer">https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammered_dulcimer</a> -

<p>Primus/FNM were in my wheelhouse when living in SF around 91, fun nights out there, totally thrashed them to death though.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>watch out for the Frizzle Fry LP reissues though, they're mixed so low they're basically fucking inaudible.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>being an indie snob dickhead I always lumped them in with that Duran Duran era poppy bullshit but if you've got a top shit sound system, and a tiny wee mountain gorilla of a turntable cartridge, holy shit, watch out, that Big Chair lp was recorded in heaven.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>another "guilty pleasure" from that era is A FLOCK OF SEAGULLS. yes, you can have your Austin Powers laughs, fine, go on, I dont give a shit</p>

<p>currently on, ISIS last one, "wavering radiance", more boring metal I keep coming back to. Split up in 2010 and then oops, <em>slight name reappropriation</em>, haha, wondering how their t-shirt sales have been going since then</p>

<p>I'd add Joe Jackson, Go West and Style Council to the list of "80s stuff that should be shit but is actually good"</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You can't beat Power Station though, good old Robert Palmer rocking out in a suit like he's just come back from a business meeting ( and they had the guitarist and bassist from Duran Duran too of course, another to add to the above list. )</p>

<p>"I ran" is my favourite "80s" song. It's got everything you want in an 80s pop track, and when you add the video, it's a work of art. </p>

<p>Fuck i love Primus. </p>

<p>I prefer "Space age love song". good old GTA Vice city re-introduced me to that track.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Primus are a quirky singer who sings about odd stuff who also happens to be a fucken amazing bassist. They're definitely pretty good but there's only so much I can take of them.</p>

<p>It's that kind of analysis, insight and thought out opinion that brings me back to the fern time and time again. Awesome stuff Timbo. :hi:</p> -
<p>Probably only a couple of you on here into this sort of music but I've been pretty much been listening to these guys exclusively for the last couple months.<br>
<br>
<br>
They've been around for well over a decade but only there last 3 albums have had an international release. Best band I have listened to in years. Really hanging out for them to announce some shows in Oz as they've been doing the US/Europe circuit heavily with rave reviews and now with a bit of a name for themselves hopefully they will check out this hemisphere soon. These 3 videos are from each of their 3 major releases, quite a bit of development between albums, I think I slightly prefer the darker earlier album 'Black Waltz' but that might be partly due to my recent state of mind, really is a fantastic angry break-up album! 5 angry death metal clown screams outta 5.<br>
