Wow, I really like Mastodon, find Lamb of God to be mildly irritating and really love Mr. Bungle’s first CD. But I agree with you that California was a more solid album. We’re like Ebert and Roeper! Or something.

You must really HATE Fantomas, I imagine.

Jon…the 80’s fell out of someone’s ass and came back with a satanical vengeance–poofy bubble skirts and leggings under skirts/shorts are in full force. It’s an ugly, ugly, scary, ugly thing.

Zorn and experimental stuff doesn’t bother me. I do enjoy California, so it’s not Bungle in general, but the guitar sound and circus music on the self-titled above makes me insane. I couldn’t hate it more.

And Jo, the 80’s will never be back in full force until you let it into your heart, which is going to be pretty tough since it’s already slated to be shoved up someone’s ass.

yay for thre OKGo shout-out, but I’m mystified by the Mr. Bungle hate. That’s actually my favorite album by them! It is a super-acquired taste though, and I can see how it would turn off 99.9% of the general populace.

I would suggest you never listen to any John Zorn, though … if you don’t like Mr. Bungle, that shit’ll drive you crazy.

in case you haven’t noticed…the 80s are back in full force. it’s quite scary to see kids born in 1980 thinking that their stretchpants and flashdance sweatshirt are so “new”. my coworker (a female) has even shaved steps into the side of her head. i’m dead serious.
