Lucy Lawless Appreciation Thread

I did it on bootleg trading sites, mostly torrents, but did it physically with people I met on trading forums through the mail. Dimeadozen is a good one that’s still around. I started off and on around 1999 to 2012. Made friends with people who were doing the trading for the super rare stuff who were transferring master or 1st generation sources to digital. Those guys would take those hoarded tapes and release them for everyone, but I was able to get it months prior to everyone else. Lots of once incredibly rare hardcore and punk. I’m fairly certain that Black Flag fans recorded every single show because new lost shows pop up every year.

I just had the mental vision of people secretly trading tapes in sketchy bars and alley's, like some sort of crime syndicate lol.

This sounds way more mundane, but still really interesting.

It’s very mundane, but it’s cool to share them with others. I’m a big Type O Negative and Death fan so I did a lot of physical trading for those, including in person trading.

I heard you and K-Man mention Type O Negative before, could you recommend a good place to start listening, i'm curious, never heard anything by them.

The singer passed away right?

TON is in my top five for sure. Not one bad song from them, every album switches up the styles a bit. Very unique.

They're a band either you love or you don't get. They're a cross between so many styles. It's like Black Sabbath meets whatever music the singer was into at the time.

I guess you should start at the Bloody Kisses album because that was their biggest, then October Rust. Their whole discography is great though. To start, I guess just type Type O Negative into Youtube and see the suggestions and try those out. You'll get Christian Woman, Black No. 1, Love You To Death suggested I guess. After October Rust (1996) they'd get darker again with World Coming Down, then lighter again with Life Is Killing Me, and then kinda more traditional on their last album, Dead Again, which is a mix of Sabbath, punk and thrash.

The singer/bassist Peter Steele died in 2010. Guy was a legend and a legit weirdo. 6'8 tall and lived in his parents' basement in Brooklyn until he was like 40 or some shit. His second band in the 80s, Carnivore, was a great thrash band that had two albums, and on the second it gets more into the hardcore style. TON's first album, Slow, Deep & Hard reflects that but now the songs go through different movements and last 8-12 minutes. There's so much dirge in it. "Unsuccessfully Coping With The Natural Beauty Of Infidelity" is the shit.

After the debut TON album they did something of a comedy album, Origin of the Feces, which is a "live" album that they played in front of nobody but added in crowd noises, usually booing. They played the same songs from the first album but pretended it was live and changed the names of the songs, and after one of the songs Pete's like "hey we just got a bomb threat, so all you scumbags get out da building".

Also, look up Peter Steele on Jerry Springer, lol.

 

[Riccardo Bosi]

You weren't lying, cheers!




You where also right about Chris Poland, forgot how great he really was.




That switch at 2:38 is fucking fire

Right? There's something hypnotic about that album. I read that during this time, Dave was getting so high on heroin that he was coming out with all this crazy shit, but he'd stay with it juuuuust enough to record it. The changes in Black Friday are unbelievable and it shits on so many other bands.

I Love bands who can and aren't afraid to switch styles, so many bands just keep the same sound going that made them popular in the first place, that's why The Kinks are one of my favourite bands, no album sounds the same.

I think i'll check out Bloody Kisses first, i prefer to listen to full albums instead of seperate songs.

Thanks for the recommendations, Peter Steele sounds like a interesting guy, i will also check out that live album and his appearance on Springer, but i want to familiarise myself with his music first.

Since this is a music thread now, here's one for K-Man, hail Australia and hail The Alliance.

How about this big-titted Dutch legend?





EDIT: I looked it up and they not Dutch, they're German-Canadians or something. Well, her tits are great.

Are they dutch? never heard of these guys, she can get it though!

Nah I amended my post. This song was huge down here though.

I would honestly start with Carnivore’s albums first as the original Type O album was going to be the third Carnivore album. Pete Steele’s original band was called Fallout, they released one single but it is cool to check out. Their fake live album “Origin of the Feces” is the beginning of the shift to goth metal. The crowd noise on that album is by the band Life of Agony as well as Type O. The bomb threat was based on an actual bomb threat that happened in I believe Sweden. The threat happened due to the song “Der Untermensch.” That show was recorded and pressed to silver disc bootlegs in the 90s. The band is basically if Black Sabbath and the Beatles had a child who was at times suicidal.

Peter Steele was easily 6’7”, bigger than most wrestlers. I was lucky enough to talk with him a couple of times. He was easily the nicest man in music. The rest of the band were complete gentlemen, probably the nicest band of all time. Their live shows were incredible, they were phenomenal musicians. The crowds were generally 50% female and the best smelling crowds ever.

Half of the band Biohazard were Carnivore’s roadies in the 80s.

I wanna have coitus with that lady.

I'll start with Carnivore then, i always find it interesting to listen to the musical progression of artists in chronological order, thanks for the tips brotherman!

Did they smell intoxicating?

I hate that worm. The crowds actually did smell intoxicating. They drew a surprisingly large amount of beautiful women to their shows, including goth chicks. Let’s face it, 90s goth chicks were hot. They changed their style in part because Peter Steele wanted to have more women at shows so he could get pussy. He was big into having threesomes with bisexual women, dude even wrote a song about it. I respect that man for writing about what he loves.

Did he take them back to his mother's basement, lol.

He sounds like a interesting guy for sure.
