From everyone's favorite music magazine (that's called sarcasm) here's a review of Declaration of Conformity by the Wellwater Conspiracy. It's one of those 2 in 1 reviews, they also review an album by Talk Show at the same time... -----Declaration of Conformity THE WELLWATER CONSPIRACY 3/5 stars What's become of "Alternative" hard rock in the wake of Soundgarden's demise and Scott Weiland's mercurial, on-off relationship with his band mates in Stone Temple Pilots? Cobbled together from the current debris of those bands - Talk Show consists of STP's DeLeo brothers and Eric Kretz, and new singer Dave Couts, while the Wellwater Conspiracy features Soundgarden drummer Matt Cameron and bassist Ben Shepherd - these new releases provide two significantly different answers to that question. [snip...review of the Talk Show album] Cameron and Shepherd take an entirely different track with the Wellwater Conspiracy and fare much better. Released on a tiny indie label, _Declaration of Conformity_ suggests that these Soundgarden expats have left the Seattle sound behind for trippy psychedelia that recalls '60's freak icons as Syd Barrett and 13th Floor Elevators. _Declaration_'s tinny, fuzzed out sonics decidedly evoke the Summer of Love - the ace garage punk of "Lucy Leave" and the hallucinogenic intrumental "Far Side of Your Moon" wouldn't be out of place on the _Easy Rider_ soundtrack. Not to be outdone by Talk Show's cultural references, the Wellwater Conspiracy even title a song "Shel Talmy" in tribute to the legendary producer who was responisble for the Kink's and the Who's distorted '60's rave ups. It's this playful toying with rock history that artfully erases from _Declaration_ any memory of Soundgarden's Teutonic glumness. Alernative hard rock may not be dead yet, but Cameron and Shepherd might be the ones to kill it. (_Declaration of Conformity_ is available from Third Gear Records, PO Box 1886, Royal Oak, MI 48068)-------------- if you made it this far, I have a thing or 2 to add. Seems to me there has been more talk surrounding Chris' Ave Maria and Sunshower than there has been of Matt and Ben's entire (not that) new album. Chris only has 2 tracks that we know of and no one's even really heard yet, meanwhile Matt and Ben (last time I checked, they were members of Soundgarden, no?) have recorded an entire album of stuff and no one really talks (cares?) about it. I know this album is difficult to get a hold of, but I imagine if Mr. Cornell put out an album hard to get like this, alot of you would go the great distance to get it anyway. I'm not trying to put Chris vs. The Rest here...simpy making an observation. Two little itty bitty tracks by Chris get countless messages devoted to them and an entire record by not one, but TWO former members of our Soundgarden comes out, and barely a mention. Intresting indeed. Any comments? Here is my question du jour. Many of you have been discussing whether or not you will buy the Greatest Hits, I will without a doubt simply out of loyalty..and I'm a compulsive completist and just wouldn't be able to sleep if I didn't. Besides that, will all of you buy whatever Kim, Chris, Ben or Matt's name appears on? I know I will, I can't help it. Unless its some techno record (i.e. Matt on the Prodigy record) or something like that...but other than that....I think I will. In my little opinion, I think people will be buying alot more albums with Chris' voice on it than buying an album featuring, lets just say, Ben's bass with another singer...agree? disagree? shut up rita? ANYTHING? HELLO????? ;) ~rita ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Sep 1997 15:00:33 -0400 From: Jenny Grover Subject: lyric similarities (I ain't puttin' all those stupid hyphens in there) This is stretching it a bit (I have a stretchy mind), but everytime I hear "I saw you today as you were leaving" I think of "I saw her today at the reception..."

Upon purchase of the new Life of Agony album, "Soul Searching Sun", I have realized a shocking conspiracy. In the liner noter it says all songs written by Life of Agony. This is not true. There may be 1, possibly 2 of these songs that were written by them. It also gives us the impression that they play the music, which is also not true. Except for the fact that Keith Caputo does sing the songs. In the following breakdown I will let you in on who I know played these songs for Life of Agony. Its kinda heartbreaking that they would play their first 2 albums then let eveyone come in and do it for them on this one. ****************************************************************** "Hope" - wrote and perfomed by Soundgarden "Weeds" - wrote and performed by The Offspring (solo by warrant) "Tangerine" - wrote and performed by Tool (except the chorus) "My Mind is Dangerous" - wrote and performed by Def Leppard "Neg" - wrote and performed by Alice in Chains (except the intro by Def Leppard) "Lead You Astray" - written and performed by Tool and another unidentified heavy metal band "Heroin Dreams" - wrote and performed by an all-star group of late eighties/early nineties rock anthem writers (except for intro wro te and performed by Jamie Walters) "None" - wrote and performed by members of Soundgarden and Ston e Temple Pilots "Angry Tree" - written and performed by Sammy Hagar and Stone Temple Pilots (Solo performed by Erik Turner of Warrant) "Henophiliac in Me" - wrote and performed by Gin Blossoms, Matthew Sweet and Urge Overkill "Whispers" - this is miore than likely a leftover track from STP's "Purple" album, or else they just combined "Unglued" and "Meatplow" ***************************************************** Bonus Tracks (Remakes of their own songs) "River Runs Red" wrote and performed Life of Agony!!!!! (except the solo is performed by Dimebag Darrell) "Lets Pretend" - Wrote by Life of Agony and performed by Gibby Haynes and Keith Caputo "Weeds" - wrote by the Offspring as mentioned above, but this acoustic version was performed by Alice in Chains *************************************************************************** "Gently Sentimental" and "Desire" were 2 other tracks on the album whose writters and performers could not be recognized at the time this email was to be sent. *************************************************************************** ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Sep 1997 19:08:26 -0500 From: Bill Flanders Subject: Re: Hello kiddies... :) Velvtongue@aol.com wrote: > In a message dated 9/15/97 11:26:08 PM, Bill (whflanders@MAIL.UTEXAS.EDU) > wrote: > > >Ave Maria is NOT a holiday "jingle."

" Here is what we knew a week ago: Chris did a track with eleven called "ave maria." Seth said, "Chris may have written an original version of this song." Shroomy@aol said "Seth is an idiot! because..." Because Chris wouldn't write a christmas jingle. And my rebuttle was that Ave Maria (the words) is not holiday-related, and writing an original version of that has nothing to do with holiday jingles. My point was that Seth is not an idiot, and the idea that Chris would compose a classical song is not any more proposterous than the idea that he would perform one. > er...no connection to 'Ave Maria,' except in the most peripheral sense. > > and nice snipe against AOLers. just goes to show how ignorant you continue > to sound.... judge a person based solely on their web provider? sort of > laughable, really.

Not only will the as-yet-untitled album contain the predictable stuff from Soundgarden's four A&M discs, but it will also feature a couple of B-sides and some rarer stuff from the band's early independent releases. In addition to working out the greatest-hits details, Soundgarden frontman Chris Cornell has recorded a song called "Sunshower" for the upcoming soundtrack to "Great Expectations," and is hard at work on his first solo album. I would like to thank my sis for sending thsi to me. This will probably make the decision for most people whether to get it.

Well, Rita, you have a point. Thing is it doesn't always apply. True, I don't really care about Wellwater, Hater, or Truly, but thats mainly because I've never heard them and since I've been told they don't sound like Soundgarden I would rather pursue other cds (like Corrosion of Conformity who Kim is a huge fan of). But I will NOT go buy "A Very Special Christmas 3" for the reason I just stated, I would rather get other cds. I would rather shell out $8 for a used cd that I'm gonna enjoy the whole disc, than $17 for a disc with one track that may very well suck. I never have been a fan of side projects of members of bands. Afterall, one man doesn't make the band. MD.45 is one of the worst cds I ever owned. It has Dave Mustaine but Lee Ving just sucks. Also, about Wellwater, Hater, and Truly, I don't like to buy cds by bands that I've never heard anything by but I have done it a couple times. It paid off with Dream Theatre but Slayer was way below my expectations. Ohh yeah, other thing that I said in a previous post that never made it to the list. I'm not a huge Ben fan. I thought Hiro played way better. I get the impression that most people on the list seem to like Ben better. Is that because of his playing or his songwriting/contributing? If you listen to even the first half of Ultramega Hiro's playing really sticks out and kicks ass. Another thing I said that didn't make it to the list: When we were all talking about what songs we skipped or didn't like, I mentioned Outshined and I was wondering if I was the only one. But then I said (since I already went out on a limb) that Rusty Cage was too long for its own good. Don't get me wrong. I like long songs (Suite Sister Mary-11 minutes) but Rusty Cage doesn't have enough mood changes for its length. Its dissapointing because I love that intro but I don't like to put it on SG or mix tapes because your in the car and just waiting for the song to end 'cause it seems to drag on. Ohh yeah, I had another comment in that post that didn't make it, but won't put it here 'cause its kinda long, but would the person who said (talking about Ty Cobb I'm paraphrasing here) "I would like to see someone in the hard rock industry put out a song with that much energy and mood changes building to a big end" would you mail me? I got a couple songs you should REALLY check out because they fit the bill much better than Ty Cobb (and have a tad more meaning :)).

How could you not like Outshined? I know I'm not the only one that loves it. Outshined is one of my favorite songs and the song that really sticks out on probably Soundgarden's best Cd and YES I have heard and own them all. The song is amazing. It's a great song to play really loud. It stirs up so many different feelings, it can be; the lyrics capture a feeling of despair and anger and the music can psych you up-it was the first song I listened too after I learned that they broke up. Show me the Power Child I'd like to say That I'm down on my knees today It gives me butterflies Gives me away Till I'm up on my feet again I'm feeling outshined ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Sep 1997 23:53:07 PDT From: Laura Pacifico Subject: Re: RS Review and keep reading down cuz I do have something to say at the end!!!!!!!!!!!!
