Title: what do you think the WORST 3 T? songs are?

hmm blasphemous to say any at all but here goes

1 Little tongues first (i hate that song)
2 Hypermania
3 CC Rider

i see fat camp is very popular

1 nausea
2 loser kop
3 fat camp (at the moment)

They wrote a song about Joey Dunlop??? oh dear. it might as well have been accelerator

I think i heard somewhere that that is a sample from a Channel 4 documentary about insomniacs

This is a wild guess but i would think its from one of the Lolita movies. Also found out that the sample in Loser Cop (‘you little punk!’) is in Drugstore Cowboy when i saw it again the other day, its a cool movie

Talking of the ten year plan, Lunacy Booth (string version) is one of the best T? songs ive ever heard BUT is it actually Therapy? who play that, and if not, who?

It was good wasn’t it? Andy looked well pleased with his beer

I support Marliyn Manson cos

(1) He IS clever, witty and has a lot to say (I know Ive been going on about his autobiography but READ IT!)

(2) In the chart run down or whatever you see a manufactured group talking about the love of their lives or whatever,followed by a 6ft naked skinny white man with ‘tits’ and no genitals singing about sodomy and drugs - hes a refeshing alternative and hes funny!

(3) He pisses people off (even hardened T? fans!)

OK its unfortunate that many kids take him too seriously and he does rip off a lot of other acts (Bowie, A Cooper, NIN), and they may not be especially musically gifted but hes still one of the most ‘alternaive’ artists of the 90s

Oh yeah and Slipknot suck pretty bad

OK we heard you the first time, we just didn’t care

whats a computer?

Yeah, thats what i meant to say

I think they just made up two words that sounded cool together, other examples: Brainsaw, Pleasure Death, Lunacy Booth, Femtex, Auto Surgery

Actually that was the only bad thing about the gig: Zac didnt speak once except for ‘Good evening we’re RATM from LA California…’. I think it was because Rage had an early evening slot so they only had 50 mins, as they were added to the bill at their own request and wanted to fit as many songs as they could into the time they had. Coolest song was Freedom which broke into Roll Right half way through and then finished with Freedom again!

The band took the piss basically because on Top of the Pops artists are expected to mime along to their songs without actually playing them but Krist Novoselic went crazy banging his bass around, Dave Grohl waved his drum sticks in the air acting like a cheesy Iron Maiden / Degrassi drummer and Kurt practically swallowed the microphone while singing in a deep Ian Curtis depressing voice. Its a pretty famous peice of music footage in the UK

I saw them at Reading last week and they had far too big a fan base for the small tent they were stuck in. Shouldve been the main stage! They opened with ‘feel good hit…’ too. By the way does anyone here like Eliot Smith? He looked the spit of Andy Cairns and was a lot heavier than i expected

im sure rage against the machine will be going on about them soon enough (who by the way rocked at reading last sunday covering MC5 amongst others)

The fact that it was funny was cos at the start of the challenge Andy said he would have no trouble kicking their asses but Graham was more reserved

Title: Playstation

To my surprise I just discovered T? taking part in a playstation challenge in Ireland’s playstation mag. They got their asses kicked by 3 girls! One funny excerpt was their singing along to the spice girls play station game!

My Ideal gig would be Crave Release and Degrassi supporting, then the songs T? HAVE to include are: shit kicker, loser cop, auto surgery, isolation, perversonality and Me Vs You even though thats quite an unlikely scenario

no, its Joy Division

Title: DONT GIVE MIKE WATT THE DIGNITY OF REPLYING

Considering you put shit about Degrassi in every fucking section it was a bit hard not to notice, which its what you intended! And Ive never heard anything about your band in my life, I wrote that cos I knew itd piss you off and it obviously did. Also, you’re obviously not a big Therapy? fan if it took you weeks to read what I said, and you haven’t written anything about Therapy? just your own Guns N’ Roses tribute band. So go and fuck off to the Degrassi wall of mouths. Oh yeah there isn’t one, thank fuck :)

Yeah me too, it looks like a rip off from Aliens. By the way I have a pretty cool Joy Division replica flier and it looks like it was done by the same artist as the Babyteeth / Pleasure Death album covers, so maybe its from the 70s.

Belfast town centre where all the shops are is really safe despite the shootings today in the Shankill, but Ive never seen T? shirts for sale in Belfast. My friend got a Therapy? T-shirt in an Oxfam in Belfast (a charity store) of all places!

Don’t KoRn already have a cage for moshers? I dont mind people crowd surfing (even though ive had an ear ring ripped out before at a gig), but if someone kicks me in the head I make sure to give them a good fucking dig on the way past. I remember this fat ginger guy with an afro at the T? gig in the empire was being such a dick the people he surfed over pulled him down and kicked his ass! :)

Cool. I was told it meant ‘what will become of our children? Good or evil?’, maybe thats what it says on the album. I also have a pretty cool Hats Off to the insane T? t-shirt someone gave me at an Ash cocert in the Ulster hall. When I walked in I was wearing a Nirvana t-shirt and when I woke up the next morning it was Therapy!

Does it have German writing on the back? Cos everyone has that including me

Me too

Yeah I downloaded it of Napster (only joking!) i borrowed the soundtrack and its pretty crap

Heres another exception - Godspeed You Black Emperor!
Great name, NO lyrics (just samples)
