"Fresh Pair Of Panties" - Snoop Dogg

Mara said:

Have you checked out their new one yet?

DirtyChris said:

i had a bad day, so it was either blast this or buy a bottle of vodka.

Remember the 80s, its a 2 disc set of stuff like Bros, Aha, Genesis, Kylie, Yazoo, Dead or Alive, Bonnie Tyler etc

Anxiety said:

why not both?

uh, been there, done that, served the community service

That album gives me a headache these days. I never got into that depressing sorta dance music (industrial goth or whatever), but did get a few ministry albums when i was 15/16, and that was one of them.


A song that i like called "just like you" is pretty funny though, and pretty poppy aswell. Its off "twitch" I think?

That's the album. I was a big fan of the second side of that record. Loved LoRaH as well - I played the heck out of Flashback in particular. That's got to be one of the most purely, enjoyably aggressive songs ever.

I better not dig it up then. All that aggressive shit dont sit with me anymore. Hasn't done for years. Musically i was getting more into aggressive/depressing music with typical subject matters about isolation, revenge, murder, anger, whatever. In a way, its just as contrived as "I should be so lucky" by Kylie Minogue. Something so extreme must be contrived in some way. Deliberately nopisy aggressive vs deliberately poppy and inoffensive.

Heck, from Ministry to someone I listen to now like MOR legend Paul Anka. Both are as contrived as eachother in a sense, but people enjoy them nonetheless.

thesexofit said:

i don't see Ministry as depressing (especially their earlier stuff, which i just see as pure dance pop) - i see an album like "land of rape and honey" as being really catchy, melodic, ragey/angry dance music - great for temper tantrums or sour moods, which was exactly what i was going through yesterday. i went to the gym, plugged in some ministry, and worked that shit right out.

Some of Death In June is really nice--in a an eastern-European, fascist kinda way. I would never attend any of their shows though.

Y'know, I've never heard of 90% of the stuff you post. Leaving the Scud Mountain Boys aside, I figure you're about as big a music snob as I am.

Tori looks pretty fucked up! Is that pic for real?

Mara said:

same here, I have been listening to the anthology

damosuzuki said:

Those (and the NCS) are goth records. Or in the case of Malice Mizer, goth-ish.

The NCS was a side project of one of my favorite bands of all time Mors Syphilitica. It's more ritual/medieval sounding than their regular goth stuff.

InfraWarrior is the first solo album by Monica Richards of goth band Faith And The Muse--another one of my faves. Moonsongs is also a big fan of theirs.

And Malice Mizer is a famous Japanese visual band that broke up a few years ago. There are a few orgers that are fans of them like MikeMantronik (who recommended that album to me--good call Mike, wherever you are!) and weepingwall.

Haven't listened to it yet - I have Peter Case and Barry Adamson records queued up first - but it's gonna get played tonight before I turn in.
