Do you remember the band Walt Mink?
I just stumbled upon this story >>> Quote:
http://www.allmusic.com/blog/post/bu...ure-walt-mink/ Quote:
http://hbaum.blogspot.de/2005/01/walt-mink-movie.html Billy told the record company to leave off "Disappear" and "Everything Worthwhile". These songs were not used for that album. They were released on later albums eventually. Now listen to "Disappear" & "Everything Worthwhile" >>> |

I'd agree with that - why would execs listen to BC around that time? Seems like an easy (and cheap narrative) to explain away your own failure.

i'm going to be a dick and also state the obnoxiously self evident truth that if those were the two best songs then they were never going to top the Pumpkins or alt rock radio.

yeah i think one of the other indicators that this is more likely what's going on her is how they complain about the singer's voice and the band name, BOTH issues with Smashing Pumpkins who they seem to think "stole" their fame. Not enough room for big guitars, weird voices and stupid band names? No, that's just how things break out.

I like them, but they remind more of Dismemberment Plan than SP.
Why don't we merge both boards? I mean, at least we all agree that BC has made some bad decisions... |
