    desperate bicycles / overtly political music

    ...agree there. Though I'm looking for something a bit more obvious -- i.e. succinct statements like "it was easy, it was cheap, go and do it." Or tunes like the Desperate Bicycles "Advice On Arrest" which doesn't decry anything in particular but just makes a practical statement on civil liberties.

    desperate bicycles / overtly political music

    seeking some overtly political music which isn't too aggressive or masculinized or cringe-worthy or too earnest and heavy-handed. Not interested in any one voice /one guitar kinda things. Any recommendations? Desperate Bicycles kinda embody those elements for me...anything similar? I esp. like...

    Climate change and environmental collapse-ultimate challenge to the capitalist "real"?

    Hey gek-opel: Out of curiousity, why do you spell Capitalism with a "k", and insert "kkk" into the word American?

    things you have noticed.

    On sunday I saw a bunch of folks in the park with rollerskates on participating in what could only be described as a 'skate-off', but the important part is they had a boom-box blaring chicago house, and one guy had blinking lights in his rollerskate wheels which blinked quicker as his wheels...

    Early Kraftwerk advice

    Kraftwerk 1 is worth it for track 1 alone. Ruckzuck -- that manic flute -- oh. my. The rest is a bit forgettable imo. ...gotta disagree with the comment to stay away from Ralf & Florian. Between 1 & 2 I'd pick up 2.

    Jazz Hipsters 7"

    The Jazz Hipsters -- anyone have any info on them? Google gives me 1 result w/ no information.

    The Sonic Youth thread - what happened?

    I thought Washing Machine was one of their best albums, and rather liked Experimental Jet Set. I haven't heard anything after Washing Machine though, the interest just isn't there.

    Psychic Youth 7" - any connection?

    I don't have any info on the psychic youth tune, other than i like it as well. I heard it on the "none night of flexipop vol. 1" cd-r / p2p comp. I really like these "none night" comps, incidentally my boyfriend tried to pass one on to me over a year ago but I couldn't squeeze it in to my...

    Pr0n - what is it good for?

    Don't watch or view porn too regularly or whatever, but can say that contemporary, mainstream makes me a bit queazy...perhaps all the razor bumps and scorched, leathery skin. I have to second the vintage porn vote (tho from a homosexual angle). I've always been a tom of finland fan. he ha.

    Marijuana smack

    Marijuana is an absolute nightmare for me, akin to what as a teenager i percieved a 'bad trip' to be (though I've never had any problems with LSD). I get really stoned, out of my head. I wouldn't say I become paranoid, as I'm not duct-taping the heating vents or anything, rather I'd call it...

    Eno or Cale ??

    I found four of those of those Obscure releases in a thrift store in a tiny town in Alabama, stuffed in the back of crates & crates of fundamentalist Christian records, for 25 cents a piece. Imagine my surprise. I wondered, who was the village outcast who owned these once upon a time?
