putting pearl jam on the same level as the beatles and the rolling stones strikes me as odd but honesly i'm not sure what point is being made

Pearl Jam is just kind of a musically centrist answer to hair metal dying but grunge being a little too counter-cultural, idk. when I think of the bands from that scene that I like a lot better, i imagine they would open for pearl jam 20 Blunts fucked around with this message at 23:11 on Mar 20, 2021 |

A Pack of Kobolds posted:Mott the Hoople is an awful, awful band name for a not altogether terrible band. Your theory tracks. It was originally the name of a book. The band started as Silence and they didn't have much choice in the matter. Wikipedia posted:While in prison on a drug offence, Stevens read the Willard Manus novel Mott the Hoople, about an eccentric who works in a circus freak show, and decided to use it as a band name.[1] Silence reluctantly agreed to change the band's name to Mott The Hoople following their audition for Stevens in early 1969.[1] Besides the one everybody knows, All the Young Dudes, they had Thunderbuck Ram. A stupid name for a good song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2930s_MBYw

Arab Strap Duo from Scotland. Grew up with this band, became big in 1996, stopped for a while, released their first album in a decade two weeks ago. Hard to describe, ennui for twenty somethings back then, ennui for middle aged now probably. Latest album track https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4CN6sxDvr0 Older stuff https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=In_vIUcfhyY (the middle bit, loving heaven) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBSu9spVHmQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYzs345jpeM happyhippy fucked around with this message at 23:14 on Mar 20, 2021 |

Pretty good posted:Rotting Christ I remember getting their Triarchy of the Lost Lovers album in the 90s and being surprised because it sounded nothing like I expected from a band called Rotting Christ. Skinny Puppy is legitimately my all-time favorite band and I've always thought their name is kinda dumb.

Do The Evolution is indeed really good and it just makes me dislike Pearl Jam more. They can obviously do good stuff, so why don’t they?

hahaha, i wish you were eddie vedder too, man. contentwise: Finger Eleven is a dumb as hell name and i don't really like their music, but i'm not too proud to admit that Paralyzer is one hell of an earworm. also their previous name was Rainbow Butt Monkeys. i dunno. dumb as hell names.

pearl jam are aggressively mediocre but not particularly bad. the bad grunge band is stone temple pilots. the worst thing about pearl jam is that like every single post-grunge singer tried to sing like eddie vedder but sucked horribly at it, but that isn't really their fault.

Pearl Jam do nothing for me, but "Rear View Mirror" is really, really great. The band reportedly don't like it which i guess proves that they're kind of dumb. "Frightened Rabbit" have a terrible name. Its just so self-consciously gentle and sensitive, but their music is pretty good.
