There is, as everyone knows, a Germs tribute album coming out but small indie bands are doing their own tribute album. It is going to be called "Damn You!", a tribute to the Damned. Ghoul is going to cover "Neat, Neat, Neat." Other bands that are rumored to be on the album are Brainfreeze, Birdbath, Six Foot Ditch, Sick of It All, Shovel, and many others. I love the damned and would love to hear this speed-punk/alternacore tribute album. Maurice Fyre P.S. Has anyone heard anything about the Unborn's summer tour? ------------------------------ From: DanaBT@aol.com Subject: dirtier than s*** (somms?).. Okay, I admit that I'm lowlier than thou, I don't own Somms!!! I have most if not all of the songs from it on other compilations, but not Somms. Am I still worthy? I know, no, as some of you would say!! Anyway, on the AIC mailing list someone was saying that SG, PJ, and AIC had recently loaned their equiptment to the Smashing Pumpkins so that they could continue on with their show,due to foul weather destroying the equipment. So much for band "competition". They respect their peers and maybe we should shut up and listen!! ------------------------------ From: "Dan \"Pop-tart\" Hearsch" Subject: Re: holy bible on the nightstand next to me... actually, i got a lot of shit for that opinion from some guy from rice university. seems he has a problem with al jourgensen, and lacks the verbal/writing skills to communicate that in an intelligent way. it's good to know that some of the people on this list can actually carry on a disagreement without resorting to childishness, as i once did in the past, but do no longer. ------------------------------ From: "Dan \"Pop-tart\" Hearsch" Subject: Re: dirtier than s*** (somms?)..

Morning All, If you were at the Reading festival last year (or if you have a bootleg copy of the set), you might have heard some of the stuff from the *new* album. I'm not sure, but I think they played "Ty Cobb" towards the end of their set.... So, if you want to hear it, get the bootleg :) As for the content, or general feel of the new one....... The truth is..... NOBODY REALLY KNOWS!!!!! Could anyone have predicted the diversity of SuperUnKnoWn ??? I think not..... The only thing you can be sure of is that it'll be Gods own work, and completely different to the last one. And when it does get released (eventually, some day in the U.K.), I fully intend to listen to it religiously, until my ears bleed :> P.S. Favourite album :- Superunknown, Favourite track :- 4th of July.... P.P.S. Why is it so damn difficult to get SG stuff in the U.K. ??? Everything has either been deleted, or was never released here!!!!!!!!!!! Aaarrrgghhh!!!!! Take it easy, Rev.

(That is >the only non-Black Hole Sun SG song I have heard on the radio.. >Matt ............No....it was a session of covers - they played Budgie's 'Homicidal Suicidal', 'I Can't Give You Anything' by the Ramones, a Jimi Hendrix song (I forget which) and something else. It was in the good old days of Tommy ''can my voice get any more husky?'' Vance. I taped it, but then I really stupidly recorded over it by accident. Bad mistake : ( Beck ps I think it was the songs that appeared on the cd single 'Outshined'..... I didn't know they did another Radio session too.........was that good (silly question I spoze)? ------------------------------ Subject: Re: kinda boring but From: "Matthew Paul Lawrence" > > > >I nearly had a brain hemmorhage today; I was driving around, and I > >nonchalantly turned on the radio to hear SOUNDGARDEN!

I anticipate the release with glee.........I hope it's before the summer's out cos maybe they might do Reading or Phoenix (I wish!)....but then again a proper tour would be better...... As long as they don't play bloody arenas and as long as I'm not skint at the time (nb Skint = penniless)....but I'd still go anyway.... Beck ------------------------------ From: "R.

It's because of the music press, which is pretty fickle and fashion-oriented in England......and Ministry fans are probably as weird as Al himself so they like everything he does(by the way, this is by no means an insult cos I am a Ministry fan). Of course, there are 'proper' SG fans as well, but the press turned Seattle into a fashion thing so 'the wrong people' (for want of a better phrase) got into it......whereas Ministry were never really 'cool' as far as the press was concerned......

But bands always get accused of this sort of thing when they make 'different sounding' albums, eg SP with Mellon Collie, Gnr with the Illusion package, Metallica with the Black Album, and so on and so on...... I don'tthink any of these bands sold out (even though I hate Axl Rose and I think the Black album was probably a little more 'commercially viable'' than old Metallica stuff........I still love it though...)

Until next time...JCP "I feel sober even though I'm drinking..." -Chris Cornell ------------------------------ From: Mohit Krishan Bawa Subject: Sugar?Soundgarden The Unborn tour, that is Chris Cornell's flamboyant but small-scale side project, which is scheduled to be brief this summer, may only have Tool at some of the shows. Bob Mould, formerly of Husker Du, and now in Sugar, has been rumored to open the shows that Maynard James Keenan and the rest of Tool will miss. Hopefully, the Unborn will play songs from the bootleg demo CD that my friend has given me a copy of. I hope that they jam with Tool onstage or maybe even do Husker Du songs with Bob Mould. I can't imagine Chris Cornell singing a song entitled "Books About UFOs" or "Now That You Know Me." I live in New Jersey but I'd actualy fly out to the left coast to see this concert.

Loud Love isn't that spectacular, since it was a single (not that I would hear it on the radio in this country or anything) but Into the void I would NOT expect to hear on the radio at all.. That is so cool :) Matt ------------------------------ From: Mohit Krishan Bawa Subject: The Damned Has anyone heard of any other bands that will be on the Damned tribute album, "Damn You!"? I have heard that Ghoul, Shovel, and Sick of It All will be on it but is it only going to be New York bands? I would love to hear Soundgarden or more well-known bands do covers but I don't think it'll happen. Guns n' Roses did a cover of "New Rose" on their "Spaghetti Incident?" album but that's the only cover of the band I've ever heard. Hopefully this album will be Ghoul, one of my my favorite band's springboard into big time. Their other releases, "Kill the Kitten" did get some popularity though. Maurice Fyre ------------------------------ From: "ROBERT MCCRAE" Subject: "Won't you let me touch it anyway" "Louder than Love" was Kurt Cobains favourite record, and biggest influence, so the myth goes, around the time when Nirvana when just growing up. It says a lot for the album which is largely overlooked by those chronicling Soundgarden's rise to the fame in the early nineties. Having rediscovered it on cd, one thing that does impress is the strength of the vocals and the unrelenting nature of the songs. Strictly no ballads. Obviously the one song that was easily recognisable was "Big Dumb Sex" with it's catchy "Fuck it anyway..." chorus. Real singalong. Don't sing directly to anyone person unless you like fighting. "Louder than love" it's a potential love affair Can you get any "Hater" albums in England. I doubt it. Chris sleeps with his manager.

(Thursday morning here in Australia) My favourite radio station just played Soundgarden's "Fell on Black Days".

From: seth So, I've owned the CD+ for about 86 days, and NEVER REALIZED UNTIL TODAY (thanks to Jeremy's SG website) that all or most of the animation and audio that can be experienced when running the disc are available separately. The QuickTime movies and AIFF sound clips are all right there on the CD as individual files, for the taking. I'm not able to get the program itself to run smoothly on my computer, but I can see the animations (which include all of the videos with sound, the _Badmotorfinger_ wheel, the various versions of "the Superunknown" with sound, travelling up and down that roller-coaster-like path, etc., etc., etc.) and hear the sounds (all of that coveted "background" music for the disc) using other pieces of software. Of course, my first thought was to recreate the disc in its entirety on the unofficial SG page, but I think that might be going a bit overboard (just a bit) -- I know that nu.millennia worked really hard on the project and it would be cheating them if I made their product available free to the world. I also don't think the people at Stargate (www.sgi.net) would be too thrilled if I dumped another few hundred megs of files onto their hard disk... BUT, I will do some screen captures and provide a few short audio and video samples so those of you who haven't bought it yet (or don't live in the US and haven't convinced someone here to smuggle it to you) can see what you're missing. And no, there was no point to this post. seth ------------------------------ From: mailman Subject: interviews I just read the latest article Seth posted on his website. Did anyone notice the references to 'interviewer's nightmare' in the new article? Chris asks Kim "If murder were legal who would you take out to dinner next Thursday?", which is the same question the interviewer from SPin asked them in 'interviewer's nightmare'. I guess they really didn't like that chick. They weren't nearly as nasty in this new article though. I can totally see where they are coming from though. These interviewers ask some pretty stupid questions - questions which have nothing to do with the music. >>>-------------------------------> Geoff Kleemola gkleemol@io.uwinnipeg.ca U of Winnipeg Psychology student http://www.uwinnipeg.ca/~gkleemol <-------------------------------<<< ------------------------------ From: dallis@hq.walldata.com (Allis, Don) Subject: RE: Hey!

MA>I heard it was usualy a bad idea to tune ANY string up higher than a whole MA>tone.. (as in up to F# on the E string) but maybe I'm wrong :) I have Washburn slicks light strings, and I tune the G string up to B all the time to play My Wave. And I broke my E (high one) string and I put a B string on for it. It took a while to stretch out, but now it works great. MA>Then again, I probably annoy the fuck out of MA>him trying to play Soundgarden songs on a classical guitar.. heh heh heh. When I started playing around with the guitar, I borrowed a classical guiatr off of my neighbor. I played AC/DC unplugged, because, hey, I only needed to know three chords. the I stated playing Soundgarden on the classical guitar, and now I bought my very own cheap generic used Sears electric guitar. It's not really as bad as it sounds though. Nothingman -Yes I know my enemies.
