recommend me some KRS records
 

so i just got paid & i'm in a minor record-shopping spree. just picked up some bardo pond lps on ebay, plus all the white magic stuff available in drag city.

i'm at the KRS site looking at the casual dots cd but i'd like to pad the bag with a little extra... waiting for deerhoof's new record to be available on LP again (i'm not getting the cd). so... what would you suggest?

please throw ideas & tell me why you like the stuff....

thanks!

ps im not interested in the decemberists

the thrones

UNWOUND UNWOUND UNWOUND.

Oh yeah one more...UNWOUND.

Because they're the meanest, the loudest, the craziest and so many more things that every band should be.

WNICO is my fav band that krs ever put out. they were from japan.

easier to find though would be Huggy Bear. also ruling.

xbxrx, xiu xiu, hella, the advantage, qvaris by nnck, thrones and of course OOIOO's s/t

Erase Errata-anything
Gossip-anything
NNCK-qvaris
Xiu Xiu- Fabulous Muscles

thanks after listening to mp3 & giving some thought i think i'll go with the 1st OOIOO which is awesome and i've mooched on mp3 long enough.

checked out thrones but mostly all is out print; unwound is ok but somehow doesnt rock my world,

nnck... i just wanna be a contrarian? ha ha ha... i don't know.

erase errata i have all already

o-o-i-o-o it is!!!!

thanks to all for the for the for the.

gracias.

ps- i may sneak in one more... hmm...

Mika Miko abso-fucking-lutley,
i really like Marnie Stern,
the new Mary Timony will be out next month
if you don't have them already, get some Bratmobile, especially Pottymouth

whatever you don't have by the almighty DEERHOOF, get it.
unwound

Unwound ain't rockin enough for you huh? HUH? Check out either New Plastic Ideas or Repetition, theres some great songs on those.

oh i have it AAALLLLL!!!

except for friend opportunity, but i put myself on the email for the LP reissue-- hopefully soon.

did i tell you i met one of greg saunier's old bandmates?

but anyway ha ha also im ordering i think that krazy DVD of the milkman highschool performance-- looks wonderful


by "doesnt rock my world" i meant i felt no emotional affinity for it-- but i'll try to give it another go...

I didn't at first with Unwound but mostly because I heard their last album first, which is completely different than everything else they ever did. But it's still the best album i've ever heard. Ever,

see i have this genetic problem that i dislike most male vocalists.

i'm strange... it's true!

they play very well but then the mouth opens and i find myself daydreaming of kim gordon. there are male voices i like but they are few.

Huggy Bear was on KRS for a minute right? I know some of there shit is on Wija some uk label, but anywho, Huggy Bear is that ole' bullshit. Dissenthentric Penetration is my jam.

ordered!!!

besides the ooioo + casual dots i ordered a hoof tshirt & some other fun crap

the most interesting purchase however promises to be this:

it looks fucking insane. i love it already.

ohh right! thrones just recently got out of print, the only thing that's in print is a day late, a dollar short on southern lord. distros should have the actual albums as it went out of print like two months ago.

damn, man, how the hell did i miss your post?

yes i was considering bratmobile, i love girl germs and i've always wanted more

mika miko... i'll check it out for the next paycheck! thanks.

& thanks to all who posted.

niice, I just got into them recently because my brother knows them!

Serious? Thats the only unwound album I never listen to. Yeah pretty much everything unwound did on KRS rules, especially the future of what. Also get their s/t 7" (The one on my signiture ;) ) best record ever probably.
Other KRS bands:
Born against
Long hind legs (Unwound side project)
Men's recovery project
Godheadsilo
Bikini kill (duh)
Bratmobile
Huggy bear
The bangs
Cold cold hearts (Bratmobile side project band)
team dresch
Sleater kinney
Excuse 17 (SK side project band)
Heavens to betsy (SK side project band)
Elliot smith
comet gain

there's probably more, but these are the most awesome!

Hah-hah-hah, I thought you meant KRS-One there for a minute.

... ...Alright alright, I'm gone.

EDIT: In any case, KRS re-released a brilliant compilation of the band Kleenex/Liliput's work from the early '80s. They were a very influencial, very good post-punk band and you might want to investigate.
