Ok so NLMDA is super, Soothe is weak and Sandoz sucks, huh?

i always forget Sad Peter Pan (mainly because I was very much unfamiliar w/ the original song & artists and still kind of am) but yeah that one's a beauty

even more of a "lost track" than Glynis or the Siamese b-sides that weren't on Pisces (pre-reissue, at least)

Yes, I forget about that one too. Such a brilliant cover and so cool to see them collab with Red Red Meat. (I'm a huge Tim Rutili ran).

It's too close to call for me if "Sad Peter Pan" or "Never Let You Down Again" is my fav cover of theirs.

NLMD is the easy #1 for me but like i said there may be a slight bias w/ it being the track (or at least one of them) that essentially got me into the band

I didn't know there were lyrics


Dad
Dead
Was I ever alive?
Fucking makes you alive in one minute
Solctice
I am solctice filled with mercury
Liquid fucked
See right through your heart
Fuck your heart
I am mercury liquid pure
Hot, alive, dead, mucked fish eyes, doe eyes
I was born alive
I'll fucking kill you
I'll beat your soft baby head with my own hand
Careful with that baby...
Don't ever say the h word around him
Ashamed
I am ashamed of my name
Say it
I hate the sound of your shit because it means no good
It means cheap, liar, smart ass piece of shit
Change it to ray gun you fuck
Billy is the loon
I am the loon
I am mars
Billy addly addly addly...
Your name causes shit
While I may be no expert on this reality,
There is no god, but shame
God is hurt, god is cold
Try that once, god is dead
There is not another one
Battle
Cold heart radio
Feedback
The pain
Recurring messages of badness
Recurring living bad dreams at the vortex of lost souls
Wailing lost souls of shame
We are in one hole
Like a cup of mercury phosphate
Brrr
Shuddering around
Taste my shit you wench
Lifting, wailing lost souls who stand a chance
Hot, my eyes darkly gaze and wonder
Do not enter
Why?
I was born whole
Fractured, divided, shattered into a billion fragments
A million piece puzzle
A million piece jigsaw puzzle with no this, and no that

This is a perfect summary of my beef with it.

You know there's an issue with it when you'd rather have a jam of any of these:

-Glass and the Ghost Children
-United States

And, even:

-Heavy Metal Machine

At least those are their songs. There's just no need to drudge up this "cover" which really isn't a cover in the first place. The only semblance of tie to the original is that there are SOME of the same lyrics. Some.

But what's really offensive about any of the above is that this band has the ability to jam. They can do it. Silverfuck. Superchrist. Hell, why not build out Starla into a longform jam? Drown? Or even do a rehash of Bullet like the tribal one in 98? That thing smokes.

It's just lazy. And that's sad when there's a shit ton of talent up on that stage hanging out with Jack.

It made more sense in 2000 as the epilogue of drop C Bullet with the whole Machina concept of rock star taking stock of his situation

Feels like its been brought back to show people he can still scream
