Why was there such a huge change of style between "The Flat Earth" and "Aliens
Ate My Buick". I know "Budapest By Blimp" was Flat Earthy but "Airhead" was
definitely not! And where did he pick up the American accent?

	I like both styles, but would like to here more "Hot sauce" type music.
Is this likely? or was it just a lapse in style?

Must be luck or something that I would see a post about this today.  I just 
heard them this morning in (of all places) my college World Civ. class.  
Seems the teacher got ahold of their album and enjoyed it so much that he 
decided to play a cut or two while we were busying writing on a quiz.  I 
think he played a cut name _Ninth Grade_ or something.  I couldn't remember 
exactly, but the music is hard to describe.  It's not real heavy (although 
I only heard one track, I couldn't tell) and sounded somewhat like a toned 
down They Might Be Giants.  Lots of odd instruments, spoken lines, etc.

I'd have to hear more of it to really be sure, anyone else heard it?

RE:  Ride / Lush

That's odd, because when I saw Ride at the beginning of the summer in Detroit,
The Wolfgang Press opened for them.  It was quite a shock since I haven't
actually listened to anything new by TWP since 'Cut The Tree' on the _Lonely 
Is An Eyesore_ compilation.

I did manage to catch Lush at the Lollapalooza '92 Festival, though.  They
were very good, even if we were right at the back of the stands (second last 
row).  Pearl Jam was my favourite though.

Sure enough - the moniker they go under is Dos, and they have (to my
knowledge) an ep, an lp, an a 7". There's also a cd that has both the
ep and the lp on it, called 'Uno Con Dos' on New Alliance Records.
Very nice stuff... just two basses, mostly instrumental. Mostly
kinda mellow, too, but in a very good way.

Yes LUSH are the greatest thing since sliced bread....
Saw them twice in NYC (Same with RIDE)
As long as we are talking about LUSH...

After the release of the SPOOKY stuff, they released a four song EP.  The
first song was "For Love" from Spooky.  The other 3 trakcs were NEW
material done with their new bassist.  I have been hunting high and low
for this thing, but no luck.  I know it exists, because I saw (and heard)
it once when I was in Madison, WI.  Does ANYONE out there have it?

What I found interesting about _Superfuzz..._ is that it is totally

Mudhoney's "In & Out Of Grace", then compare it to Blue Cheer's
"Second Time Around".  Damn near identical!

A good EP, to be sure, but IMHO _Bleach_ is still the only full ablum

WRONG!  Not even close to death metal.  Just pure grunge.  No metal
looks, no metal lyrics, none of the trappings of your average metal
band.  Anyhow, fine an album as _Meantime_ might be, their first album
was a bit better.  Contains the single "Bad Moon", which no collection
should be without.  And if you _really_ want to hear "Unsung", pick up
(if you can) the live bootleg called "Unlive".  Makes the studio stuff
look like bubblegum.

If you're really into Helmet, check out just about any other
Amphetamine Reptile recording artist.  Vertigo, Helios Creed, Green
Magnet School, to name but a few.  I've said it before, and I'll say
it again - AmRep is currently one of the best label around.  Oh, yeah
- and dig the Cosmic Psychos.  :-)

It's called "You're the Guy I Want to Share My Money With", and the
third person is John Giorno. I have the double LP version: Giorno
Poetry Systems Records, LP (GPS020-021). The LP is cool because side
4 is "multi-grooved" or whatever you call it - 3 tracks (one from 
each performer), interwoven so when you drop the needle you never know
which one you're gonna get.

I don't know where to get it these days; I got mine from NMDS several

I bought Submarine Bells on a whim and it turned out to be great.  At times
there're a bit like Midnight Oil, but at times there're totally different
but excellent.  Supposedly, the lead singer is known in NZ for never having
recorded a bad track.  I guess that's a recommendation.  They are about the
best coming out from down under.

Yes, I have heard 'Spirit Level' and I like it a lot. The album sounds
more like his first two albums than 'Rhyme'.
I don't know about any solo projects from Steve or Peter.
I don't know anything about any tours either but Steve and Marty played
unplugged at a festival in Hultsfred here in Sweden about a month ago.
I wasn't there myself but a friend said they were great.

My prediction:  North Carolina (Chapel Hill/Raleigh/Durham), home of
Superchunk, Polvo, Erectus Monotone, and many others.

Oh boy, maybe my band will get to be famous!  We're on the latest Shrimper
comp (we're called Junket).  Seriously, I doubt that the mainstream "media"
will ever pay attention to a scene that's as aggressively lo-fi/homemade as
the Shrimper scene.
