May 31st - HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!! :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)
Yes, I'm well aware that this is one of a total of FOUR mixes I posted in one day, and I know that you're really only supposed to post THREE per day. But hey! It happens to be my birthday! You wouldn't, like, seriously begrudge me this one little extra indulgence, would ya?? ;-)
"This is no moon. And it's not a space sequence. But it's weird and pissed off, whatever it is! Be careful. It bites!"
Okay, that's perhaps a BIT of an exaggeration (with apologies to George Lucas, John Carpenter and David Cronenberg). But I can honestly say this has got to be one of the most angry, dysfunctional, eccentric, and most irregularly-structured mixes I've ever conceived. Hey, what can I say? There's one or two people at my workplace who are seriously getting on my nerves these days, and I guess it's kind of spilling over here...
"Eon Blue Apocalypse" < "Hunting Bears" < "Woodpeckers From Mars" < "Buck's Boogie" - Yes, that's right! We start the show with not one, not two, or even three, but four - count' em, FOUR! - instrumentals in a row! And I managed to use my currently favored triple bill of Radiohead/Faith No More/Blue Oyster Cult for it, as well! :-) :-) :-) Actually, the Tool and Radiohead tracks together form a kind of two-part solo guitar intro (courtesy of Adam Jones and Thom Yorke, respectively), followed by a double-overture from FNM and BOC.
"Over The Top" (X 2) - Mudhoney's appropriately raucous Motorhead cover on DISC #1...and the original Motorhead version on DISC #2!
"Animal (Fuck Like A Beast)" / "The Manimal" - Oh yeah, baby! (heh-heh-heh!) The highly controversial debut single from Tipper Gore's favorite poster boys for rock 'n' roll excess is on DISC #1. And on DISC #2, we have the live performance of the so-called "Son Of Animal," a.k.a. "The Manimal"!
"Everybody Knows That You Are Insane" < "Can I Sit Next To You Girl" < "C11 N17 N2 02 S Na" - TRIVIA QUESTION: The Anthrax song title is actually the formula for...WHAT?? :-) I thought for a while that maybe I should have had the AC/DC song come first (one of their very first written, by the way, dating from even before Bon Scott became their singer!), and then follow that with the QOTSA song leading into Anthrax, because it would have just flowed perfect! But then two things occurred to me: First, it would have been just a little too...uh...pervy for me to follow W.A.S.P.'s "Animal" with AC/DC's "Can I Sit Next To You Girl"! And secondly, the sentiment of "Everybody Knows That You Are Insane" makes for a playful undercutting of the W.A.S.P. song. Hey, as much as I find Blackie Lawless's whole apocalyptic sex-and-violence schtick to be cathartic at times, in real life I would probably question the mental well-being of anyone who honestly claimed that they "fucked like a beast"! (Actually, on past mixes, I've sort of playfully undercut the attitudes of Ted Nugent's songs in the same way - ha, ha, ha!)
"Good Friends And A Bottle Of Pills" < "Time Heals" < "Toy Box" - God, that Pantera track is truly a mad piece of work! And if sandwiching Peter Hammill between Pantera and Soundgarden strikes you as weird, I'll have you know I've put Hammill between Pantera and Metallica once on a past mix! BTW, I just happened to have that Soundgarden B-side on a CD-single of theirs. Frankly, I'm hoping they get around to releasing that "B-Sides" compilation that they've been threatening forever. After GN'R's "Chinese Democracy," that's been my second longest-awaited disc of the past decade or so!
Feedback:
Wow! Here are some more comments I had no room for...
Time Heals / We 3 - It didn't occur to me at the time, but I later realized that here I had two breakup songs concerning love triangles!
We 3 < Get Over It - Although I didn't think of it at the time, in retrospect this was a rather mean thing to do to Dave Pirner! (Ha, ha, ha!) I mean, I had to have something to fill the space between Soul Asylum's We 3 and the Crue's Danger, and this hit from the Eagles' 94 comeback disc seemed a good idea at the time...
New Faith < The Reflecting God < The Tenant - Think of the Slayer and Manson numbers as a climactic pair of atomic bomb blasts, and think of that moody Japan instrumental as a kind of a kind of apocalyptic afterglow. (And I swear, the fact that the latter band's name is Japan is yet something else that failed to occur to me at the time!)
Love Song - Actually, this song is neither about love nor can it really be considered a "song" as such. ("Talk amongst yourselves! Discuss!" - ha, ha, ha!) It's actually the unlisted fifth track on Alice In Chains' Sap EP from '92 - y'know, the one where everyone is flailing and pounding away on the wrong instruments, while drummer Sean Kinney is babbling non sequiturs such as "Get a fucking haircut!" "Where's my face?!" "My gums are bleeding!!" "Hurry up and wait!" "Kiss the fucking midget!" "Right on top!"...and oh, yeah, I almost forgot..."I hate you!!"
