Anyone else agree? On another note, I've been wanting to learn Teen Age Riot forever, but the tabs on UG aren't too swell, and every time I try to tune my high E to a G it breaks. How do you play it and have any pointers?

Start out with Teen Age Riot, everyone knows that. I'd also recommend Junkie's Promise, that's my favorite song by them.

Newbie Posts: 13 Group: Members Member #59 Joined: August 27, 2006	I've been listening to them a lot lately and I think they're reaalllyyyy good. I have a burned copy of their new album and it's OK. But I think Teenage Riot is one of the best songs ever.

Posts: 1,873 Group: Staff Member #2 Joined: June 28, 2006 Gender: Male Name: Morgan Location: Sarasota, FL Last.fm: rockon1824	So I was watching Gilmore Girls reruns and Kim and Thurston appeared on one episode performing What A Waste. It was pretty awesome. Also had a bunch of Neil Young references. "Heart of Gold my ass!" knows no one has no idea what he's talking about promises this is the last you'll hear about the Gilmore Girls for awhile Dec. 3 edit: Wooo! B-sides album out next week.

Awesome group. For newcomers: Pick up Rather Ripped and Goo. Best starting places without question. For GuitarBreaker: Get Sister. Awesome noiz band. Daydream Nation, Sister, and Confusion Is Sex are just SO great. Anyone listen to their SYR this year? SYR8, I really didn't like it and I'll go into it more if anyone else has heard/ heard of it.

Posts: 1,873 Group: Staff Member #2 Joined: June 28, 2006 Gender: Male Name: Morgan Location: Sarasota, FL Last.fm: rockon1824	I've heard of it, but I never checked it out because it didn't really seem like something I'd like. Occasionally their experimental-ness on their major label albums gets on my nerves; I can't even imagine what it would be like listening to an entire album of it. XD It's weird...Rather Ripped has kind of weakened in my eyes since I first heard it. I think it has to do with the fact that I prefer their songs with more distorted guitar and stuff, which Ripped just didn't have. It's a good chill-out album though.

It's not as dense or challenging as the majority of their work. Its good, but it isn't classic.

Regular Posts: 123 Group: Members Member #552 Joined: March 9, 2008	Rather Ripped was decent, but none of their cleaner, newer stuff holds a candle to "Bad Moon Rising" or the self-titled EP. Edited by blackflag49, Sep 18 2008, 01:58 AM.

I'm having a hard time choosing, because on the songs Kim sings, her voice really fits the song perfectly, like Kool Thing and Kissability, but so does Thurston's. I actually find Thurston's voice really calming a lot of time...

I think I prefer Thurston, though, but that isn't to demerit Kim in any way.* Except for maybe some* of her improved spoken word bits. Edited by Ryth, Dec 6 2008, 08:23 PM.

Holy crap, I can't believe that. "The Sprawl" is definitely my favorite Daydream Nation song, though I'm surprised to hear you like it that much. I really want to read some of William Gibson's stuff (which inspired the song). Have you read any of it?
