What Are you Listening to Right Now?

[revbob]

Kinda good. I admit that when I was 16 a lot of the harsher, dronier stuff went over my head, but it's what catches my ear more now.

The Cale/drone element is what really caught my ear when I first listened to VU. It just sounded so cool and weird that when I listened to ST, I thought, “what is this generic pop shit?” Like, how did they go from weird to normal? I thought most bands went the other way around. Took me awhile to appreciate the post-Cale stuff.

Yeah, it's seductive to think of post-Cale as a retreat or cop-out. I remember reading about the mystique of the Velvets and being avant garde and challenging … and then hearing Loaded. What am I missing? Different beast, different way of approaching common subject matter.

Im gonna just come right out and say Ive never really listened to VU.

If you want more conventional stuff, start with Loaded. If you want to dive into abrasive, start with White Light/White Heat, or the Banana Album and skip the Nico songs.

This is me in reverse. I wanted that noise back then but now I appreciate the lighter stuff.

I've always been older than you stupid! I was listening to heavy stuff while you were still in diapers. I was born loud. Now let me get some peace and quiet you noisy little upstart.

Blah blah blah, you loser late-50s person. I'm early 50s—you just don't get my slightly younger generation!

The only way your generation will get it's own back is by pissing in the wind.

Cabinet minister and son of a former premier. Didn't think it was more than a national story, tho.

Hello,

Saskatchewatching is a better spectator sport than a participatory sport.
