The Vaselines - The Way of the Vaselines , A Complete History

2008-02-27T14:38:00.000-08:00

Kurt Cobain made a lot of mistakes in his life but loving the Vaselines was not one of them. Nirvana covered one of their songs for their MTV Unplugged session, two other covers show up on the Incesticide record and as Kurt might tell you if he were alive today, from 1986 to 1989 the Vaselines were the best pop band on the planet. Sub Pop was kind enough to cash in on the Nirvana connection and on The Way of the Vaselines: A Complete History, release everything the Vaselines recorded. From the stomping, singalong opener "Son of a Gun" to the distorted and nasty "Let's Get Ugly" 17 tracks later, this collection is the Holy Grail of indie pop music. It's unfailingly amateurish, almost completely silly, occasionally quite perverted, and always about sex. The music has the simplicity and ear-grabbing melodies of the best bubblegum, the loud and semi-competent guitars of punk, and some of the attitude and lo-fi sound of the noise rock scenesters like the Jesus & Mary Chain. Throw in a bunch of religion and add simplistic choruses that will have you singing along the first time you hear the songs (as well as the thousandth) and you've got just about all the bases covered. It's near impossible to pick any songs as standouts since they are all so first-rate. A few moments that stand out though are Frances McKee's sweet schoolgirl vocal on "Molly's Lips" (she and co-leader Eugene Kelly both have great voices with a fleeting acquaintance to pitch but filled with humor, attitude, and style), the amazing lyrics to "Sex Sux (Amen)" including the immortal line "Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost/I'm the Sacred Host with the most," the rare serious beauty of "Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam," the meows on "Monsterpussy," the very rude bicycle horn on "Molly's Lips," and the loose vocal harmonies on "Lovecraft." The whole of their recorded output is lousy with one amazing moment after another. If by some strange kink of fate you are reading this and don't already own this CD, you have to get it. You've probably heard that a million times, but if you've never believed it before, please believe it now. You need the hilarious beauty of the Vaselines in your life and this CD gives it to you in its complete glory.

MEET THE CREEPING CRUDS...The Cruds are five creepy bastards who are working on a very evil experiment in a cold, creepy laboratory on the seedy side of Nashville, TN. Now that our creepy plan has hatched, teenage Rawk zombies will turn against their parents. Good kids will go bad, bad kids will go even badder. Our faithful following will pen their allegience and sign it in their mammy's blood and send it to us with their daddy's wallet. In return, The Creeping Cruds will provide the mightiest Rock 'n Roll ever known to man. Three nasty chords and a cloud of dust that most certainly will topple the tallest buildings.

Actually a compilation released in America collecting the Gods Chosen Dealer single and the Dick Disguised as Pussy EP, Head to Head Boredom, further fleshed out with some extra live tracks, makes for a brilliantly corrosive collection of '90s Scandinavian rock & roll insanity. It's a great way to pick up the band's earliest efforts in one handy spot, and shows that right from the start, Gluecifer were not out to mess around. Biff Malibu sounds like he's out to simultaneously yell, sneer, and sass his way through all of rock's amped-up history, and unsurprisingly the band as whole are right there with him. The mix is noticeably biased towards the trebly end, in classic punk rock style, and likely enough that's just the way the group wanted it. If they got even better and more on the verge of sheer psychosis in later years, the fuse was already well lit and burning. "Gods Chosen Dealer" is one heck of a way to begin, as perfect a Ramones/Stooges/Motorhead fusion there's ever been, Malibu's Stiv Bators-gone-to-hell-on-speed whine the icing on the cake. As for the Dick Disguised as Pussy tracks, there's just a little room to breathe and strut here, and as a result it's even more manically appealing. "Head to Head Boredom" takes the "ain't nothin' to do" ethos of classic American punk to an even more extreme level, and Lord knows Captain Poon knows how to create a smoking guitar solo and make it work. Everybody throws in just what's needed and that little bit more to make it special. The rhythm section whips out subtle tempo changes for variety and makes it work, Poon invokes the spirit of total and utter RAWK, and more than once the live wire Malibu overmodulates the tape just by his shouting.

The early 21st century saw Pantera singer Phil Anselmo launch several side projects, including Necrophagia, Viking Crown, Christ Inversion, Southern Isolation, and Superjoint Ritual. The latter group is comprised of guitarists Jim Bower and Kevin Bond, drummer Joseph Fazzio, with none other than Hank Williams III on bass (Anselmo handled both vocal and bass duties for the group's recordings, but opted to concentrate solely on vocals for the group's live shows). According to Bower, the members of Superjoint Ritual approached the writing and recording of their ... Read More...

Broken Social Scene materialized in 1999 when K.C. Accidental's Kevin Drew and Brendan Canning, formerly of By Divine Right, bonded their friendship into a band. They spent the next few years honing an atmospheric rock sound in their native Toronto and the dynamic was great. Feel Good Lost marked their debut album in 2001 and introduced a revolving cast of Canadian indie musicians. Drew's fellow mate from Do Make Say Think, Charles Spearin, was added to the band, as well as Evan Cranley (Stars), James Shaw, and Emily Haines (Metric... Read More...
