Their first video that I remember was Mountain Song, not Been Caught Stealing. I think what happened is that great bands like Jane's and Pixies and Husker Du (and early REM), Jesus and Mary Chain, etc. got signed to big labels, and made headway but it was the less original but hugely popular grunge bands who got all the credit and fame.
I think he means Been Caught Stealing was the first video they made that was specifically a music video. Mountain Song was a compilation of live clips and stuff from Soul Kiss.
he's such a series of contradictions - on the one hand he is spiritual, deep & can see through bullshit at a thousand miles BUT on the other hand he has fallen for the illusion that plastic surgery is a route to eternal youthful looks but in reality he now looks..........
Rollins looks like what a brick would look and sound like if it had legs and could talk. No harm this from a fan. Back in the 1980's both singers were very intimidating. People actually feared them. In 2024 how much they've changed. They're sweethearts.
It wasn’t Nirvana…. It was Jane’s Addiction that was trailblazing against the shit hair metal trans looking band members . They were soooo different during 86-90
Nice. Jane's was my whole world back in the day. Rollins, all great with words, has some great songs, really not so great with politics, radical approaches and understanding of the system in place - monetary economics/capitalism, which is only the objective consequences of... market capitalism. Our "informed liberal" pawn really needed some updates/overhaul
Deadboy was a brilliant band before they became a two piece. One of the most magical and soulful albums of all time. I’m taking better than David Bowie good. Nice people as well. Partied with them several times back in the day.
Grunge / Gen x underground revolution was boiled down to this: bitter children of Boomer hippies set out to piss off hippies by being snarky in their holding up a fun house mirror to their hypocrisy (think stage visuals at earlier butthole surfers shows) , while recycling and finding all the best riffs classic rockers failed to discover. Corporate rock, still. Only it was mostly sincere and good
'death penalty is not a deterrent' BS look at how many criminals take pleas because they want to ESCAPE the death penalty! And besides; YOU KILLED SOMEONE... YOU gave someone else a death penalty!! fair is fair!
Hey Mike Farrell....how is the death penalty INEFFECTIVE when it is the ONLY METHOD which ensures a monster never re-victimizes another human being again? It's NOT meant to be a dterrent, it's JUSTICE.
Any punishment which doesn't deter others from future victimization of innocents is not a worthwhile punishment. "Justice" is never going to be an effective argument anyway, because it's arguable as to whether or not giving any state the power to decide life and death is just.
@@kelleymcbride4633 nope. You are the minority and you’ll be finding out very quickly. Your candidate is unhinged and losing his marbles as we speak. Stay on that Trump train as it takes you over the cliff while I laugh my ass off.
I completely agree with Perry's views on new/current music. I'm 57 years old, and have been performing for four decades (most recently at Electric Daisy Carnival in Orlando this past November). When I hear people from my generation say "music sucks now," what they usually mean is that they're old and out of touch. There's PLENTY of great new music in the world, but you have to seek it out.
Indeed! I was think the same thing so much great music that doesn’t get that great exposure because radio doesn’t play too much of it and you have to like you said discover it on your own.
Henry talking about Bush and copyright at the end shows 2006 so add 17 yrs to when this vid was made :) He still entertains well though - saw them a few weeks ago
I wonder how Cheetah feels about YET ANOTHER band using the Dead Boy moniker. Last time it was Shecky Silverstein AND The Dead Boys.. So by that criteria I can be Jason and Black Sabbath!!
