A Random Thort
My contribution to last weekend's MiG recording was fueled by a potent aural blend of Joy Division and Fleetwood Mac. I feel that's the perfect combination. Just like sweet apples and sharp cheddar cheese. Plus they'd have covered each other's songs nicely. I can definitely see Ian Curtis spazzing his severe way through "The Chain" - and we may still be able to convince Stevie to add a velvet touch to "Leaders of Men." That would fucking rule.
On another note, psychedelic gadfly and stage conversationist extraordinaire Genesis P-Orridge wrote an early tribute song to Mr. Curtis (who was apparently supposed to have been a part of Psychic TV) entitled "I.C. Water". Get it? "I.C." - Ian Curtis ... "I See Water" ... or "Icy Water". Say what you will about Mr./Ms. G.P-O, he/she knows how to title a damn song. Unlike my band.
Labels: Genesis P-Orridge, Jared, Joy Division

ouch. you better hope none of those punks read this or else you'll get an earful. or is that earfull? full of ear?
I'm as guilty as anyone else.
Our song titles do suck.
Jeremy's are usually okay - but that's cause he comes up with them when he writes the song, rather than, say, five minutes before a gig or recording session because one is needed.
