am looking for any info anyone might have concerning a band
 called big self. i picked up a 12" of theirs (ghost shirts/im keen)
 the other day out of sheer curiousity, and liked it fairly well,
 but know absolutely *nothing* of them, other than that they released
 this 12" sometime in 1983.

snyone know anything more?

thanks!

Agreed.  I think that their masterpiece, Scumdogs of the Universe, has
probably the highest conentration of incredible songs of any album apart
from Suicidal Tendencies' first.  There isn't a bad song on there, except
for that last song maybe.  Hell-o!  was like that too, except not as much.
America Must Be Destroyed was only somewhat strong.

I didn't include any comp appearances, because I don't have any comps

the "Nothing Short Of Total War" comp on Blast First.

I think _Sound Of Impact_ is a boot, albeit a high quality one.  Every

instead of having a live band on the picture tour '81, the cure recorded a  
short (27 minute) film of obscure shapes or something like that. the  
soundtrack is on the b-side of the "faith" cassette.  the film "carnage

an antonym for rose-colored spectacles.

	My roommate has the CD single to Concrete Blonde's "Caroline" and it
contains a live version of "Tommorrow, Wendy."  CB's lead singer, Johnette
Napolitano, gives credit to Andy Prieboy of Wall of Voodoo for writing the
song (which is about a prostitute with AIDS contemplating suicide.)  If you
look at the writing credits for the song on CB's _Bloodletting_ album, you
will see that A. Prieboy is credited.  Andy Prieboy's version can be found
on his album, _Upon_My_Wicked_Son_.

I am new to this group - but I have a question (forgve me if I sound repetitive) :
IS TIL TUESDAY STILL AROUND?

There first album thrust them into the mainstream with a song called 'Voices Carry'.
I believe they also got a grammy for best new artist. They *WERE* basically a synthesizer
pop band - BUT GREAT - trust me!

Ordinarily you'd say that automatically dispells them from this newsgroup but wait :
1. There next album 'Welcome Home' didn't do to hot.
2. There next album 'Everything's Different Now' did badly. They switched band members
     and went really acoustic. The albulm focussed entirely on the lead singer's breakup with her
     boyfriend. It sounded alternative. AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, NOT SELLING BECAUSE
    YOU SOUND ALTERNATIVE MEANS YOU'RE ALTERNATIVE!

The problem is that 'Evrything's DIfferent Now' came out a long time ago (I can't remember exactly
how long - maybe 4 years). I have heard nothing about the group since and believe that they no longer
exist - DAMN.

RUSH featured AMMIE MON (I don't know if that's spelled right) in their song, 'TIME STAND STILL'.

If anyone could post or preferably e-mail me any info on what TIL TUESDAY or AMMIE MON is up
to I'd appreciate it. i.e. New album, Tour info - A N Y T H I N G.

OK - it's time for another CD run and I've been interested in getting the
new Lovechild CD, _Witchcraft_, and the new Sprinkler CD, _More Boy, Less
Friend_ (the best album title I've seen since _668 - The Neighbor of the
Beast_).

Last year's Lovechild release, _Okay?_, I thought was one of the great
surprise indie albums of the year.  I've heard a few cuts from the new
one, and it sounds a bit more relaxed.  Anyone have it and/or any opinions
on the new CD?  I loved the last one.

From what I've heard of the new Sprinkler, they flirt with the stereotypical
"Seattle grunge sound" (if there is such a thing) while being a bit moody,
but high quality stuff.  Any comments on this CD?

Thanks in advance--

Also, Devo did a song entitled "Speed Racer" on the album _Oh No, It's Devo!_.
Its relationship to the cartoon is pretty flimsy as far as I can tell, but
it does make at least a passing mention of it.

	Well, judging from the fact that it's a movie with that song on it, I
would guess that it's Freejack, which was a movie with Emilio Estavez, Mick
Jagger, Rene Russo, and lines phoned in from Anthony Hopkins.  The soundtrack
tried to be some sort of industrial-type thing, I don't know if it succeeded
though.

The story behind this is that they were playing this festival in Belgium a few
years back, and they were second on the bill to Robert Palmer.  In the middle
of their set they were being told by the festival's organizers to finish up so
that Palmer could come on.  They refused and went on to play a mega-long
version of Forest, featuring the above lyrics (very good lyrics too, eh?!).

The disc is called (I believe)  "The Future". It has nothing to do
with "I'm Your Fan", which was a tribute CD by many alternative
musicians doing covers of his songs. The new disc is just new

Hello,
Several years ago I purchased a compilation album with a song called
"STUKAS OVER DISNEYLAND" by "THE DICKIES". I thought it was great.
Yesterday while wandering thru a 2nd hand store I grabbed a CD by "THE
DICKIES" entitled "SECOND COMING" which includes an inspired version of
"HAIR" from the musical and a couple of real catchy power pop tunes
"DUMMY UP" and "BOOBY TRAP".

Can somone tell me where this band come from, do they still exist, and if
possible send me a discography. The "2nd COMING" CD is on the ENIGMA
label if that's any help.

Thanks in advance,

The Beantown hardcore label Taang! Records just released the Swirlies'
_What to do about them_ which contains their Slumberland singles with some
unreleased tracks.  I think I like it, although I have yet to make up my
mind.

Slumberland has released Sterolab's _Switched On_, which is another singles
compilation.  Haven't made up my mind on that, either.  The Moog wurblings
is kinda nice, but apart from that, it doesn't do that much for me.

Th' Faith Healers, on the other hand... my _goodness!_ is that a good record

One clarification to the above flame. Minneapolis IS way ahead of New York 
in a few categories, namely: 

		- snow accumulation
		- days below freezing
		- travel time to the beach

Sure, Minneapolis is a nice place but, the air's too clean and there's just
not enough crime.
