There was also Lift Off with the weird doll with no face.

Ec. Terrifying. Australia had some pretty ****ed up kids shows in the 90s, so maybe some oldies can cut us milennials a bit of slack.

I have eight sets of votes in my inbox. I haven't had the chance to access my spreadsheet yet, but I'll hopefully get around to counting and acknowledging those later tonight.

 

[UncleImpairedRetina]

Is he stil alive?

Yeah. They run Rhymesayers if you're familiar with them. They've put out some fantastic records (Aesop Rock for example).
They're selling some sweet MF DOOM anniversary stuff at the moment.

They put this out towards the end of '23 and I reckon it's pretty damned good.

Personal opinion.

They remain a 'good' band in their prime. 80s to early 90s but their longevity is poor in contrast to other artists. Their current appeal imo is lacklustre stacked up against the other bands of those periods but fail to compete with the likes of Pixies, Black Keys, and other similar bands.

Anything post 1999 is derivative. Again. My personal opinoon.

Long syory short. They were great back in the day but looking back have faded like a wilting flower

Well if their pre 2000 stuff is ok that’s 20 years of good work - doesn’t gel with saying you wished they never existed

Just saying that revisiting them doesnt hit even close to the feels of

Billy Idol
Bob Seger
New Order
The Cult
The Church
Icehouse
Kids in the Kitchen
Bob Sega
R.E.M
OMD
Spandau Ballet


I feel like they were great at the time but to me I honestly cant bring myself to listen to anything of theirs with the exception of

Sunday Bloody Sunday, Miss Sarajevo
