It's been so long since I read that interview, but didn't Mailer get her to admit that since the Sex book wasn't done the way she wanted it to be done, maybe she shouldn't have done it in the first place? Anyone know?

Oh I do! wave I know that story. nod

Anyway, not their best work, in my opinion. I like their earlier stuff. Word Up! is regarded as their masterpiece album, and it is their most succesful one.
It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

Kasabian are garbage! razz

I actually like them a bit. nod I only have their recent album though, and I like most of it except for about 3 songs. They are overrated though IMO. nod I guess I'd have to hear their first album (which I hear is better) to really judge.

But go figure, I can't stand Oasis. disbelief lol


Each to their own I suppose. But Kasabian are nothing like Oasis. Other artists who since it was a Top 5 missed out were: David Bowie, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Paul Weller, Bjork, Primal Scream, Queens of the Stoneage, Rage Against The Machine, Audioslave, blah, blah, blah.

Tony and Funkenstein, isn't it amazing how very little funk was listed until the thread was moved over to the Music: Non-Prince Section. lol



nod Those Prince-diehards can't be trusted, that's why!! lol








..... shhh Don't tell those Prince-haters I say that. Their egos are too big as it is. wink
[Edited 12/17/06 16:32pm]


I trips me out when I see threads over there like..."When is Prince going to do a country album?" I'm thinking to myself..."You do know that Prince started out as and has remained a funk/rock act (well most of the time). lol Country is the furthest thing from what Prince is known for.

It's OK but I consider it one of their weakest albums.....too crossover.

Exactly. After the "Alligator Woman" album, they weren't nearly as funky as they used to be.

It has to be a favorite ARTIST, as in one single person? Hmmm.

1. David Bowie, of course.
2. Laurie Anderson, whose imagination has inspired me since I was a teenager.
3. Johnny Cash - I understand when people say they don't like country music, but people who say they hate Johnny Cash are really saying "I don't know Johnny Cash".
4. Bjork and her crazy ass.
5. I'm not sure who to put for #5 - Justin Bond? Patti Smith? Kate Bush? Thurston Moore? Robert Smith? Beck? Alice Coltrane? Eartha Kitt? Diamanda Galas? Maybe I'll just leave it open for the next artist who'll wow me so much that I become a lifetime fan. shrug

I'm just going by things I read about them. They always get that Oasis tag for some reason and I hear it mentioned all the time. I think it also has to do with the band's attitude as well. I wouldn't even know how much they sound like Oasis though because I really try not to listen to Oasis if I can help it. lol
