[TS]
00:35:43
◼

all-time favorite bands but you know
[TS]

partly I think because they were able to
[TS]
00:35:46
◼
►
bring like for example I think they're
[TS]
00:35:49
◼
►
the thing of their the video of their

which is kind of a joke about Pixies
[TS]
00:35:55

yeah because they they were alongside
[TS]
00:35:57
◼
►
that he'll be any production that i
[TS]
00:35:59
◼

music but then we'll just drop something
[TS]
00:36:14
◼
►
like gigantic which could be so endemic
[TS]
00:36:16
◼
►
but then also creepily quiet-like inside
[TS]
00:36:19
◼
►
the same song
[TS]
00:36:20
◼
►
yeah but i'ma quiet miss you still in
[TS]
00:36:23
◼
►
gigantic anything in the Pixies you
[TS]
00:36:26
◼
►
still felt anger and was very very
[TS]
00:36:30
◼
►
unsettled and like just a simmering like
[TS]
00:36:33
◼
►
that's something disturbing was always
[TS]
00:36:36
◼
►
just write it on the surface or very
[TS]
00:36:38
◼
►
near the surface
[TS]
00:36:39
◼
►
yeah and I think that that is what makes
[TS]
00:36:41
◼
►
elliott smith compelling but a lot of
[TS]
00:36:44
◼
►
that a lot of that generation of indie
[TS]
00:36:46
◼
►
rock that I came up in the Menace is not
[TS]
00:36:50
◼
►
present
[TS]
00:36:51
◼
►
yeah that's what I was going to say I
[TS]
00:36:53
◼
►
mean a lot of that post-rock we stop
[TS]
00:36:54
◼
►
post-rock you know which is such a weird
[TS]
00:36:57
◼
►
like what does that mean post-punk oddly
[TS]
00:36:59
◼
►
enough is very meaningful to me because
[TS]
00:37:00
◼
►
I think there is something in common
[TS]
00:37:02
◼
►
with being a family mission of burma or
[TS]
00:37:03
◼
►
whatever but like what would like that
[TS]
00:37:05
◼
►
post-rock I felt like it was a prank

[TS]
00:52:54
◼

already outside you can't be inside it
[TS]
00:52:57
◼

decided like what the canonical records
[TS]
00:53:04
◼

are and that was my that was my take on
[TS]
00:53:06
◼
►
it and so a lot of those bands
[TS]
00:53:07
◼
►
in the middle period of seattle before

particularly the heroine elements I mean
[TS]
00:53:23
◼

there's nothing less fun then you take

all those guys and then you make them
[TS]
00:53:28
◼

bun family players so no one can

[TS]
00:53:53
◼
►
this busy monster was was the same like
[TS]
00:53:55
◼
►
so uncool and of course we were hoping
[TS]
00:54:00
◼
►
that that hyper uncoolness would be cool
[TS]
00:54:04
◼
►
because you know following the be
[TS]
00:54:07
◼
►
inextricable logic of park as you
[TS]
00:54:10
◼
►
plummet into profound uncoolness you get
[TS]
00:54:15
◼
►
closer to the source of truth and that
[TS]
00:54:19
◼
►
isn't the case we were just deeply

[TS]
00:55:21
◼
►
leppard
[TS]
00:55:21
◼
►
they're ridiculously pretentious moments
[TS]
00:55:23
◼
►
but there's a simple is the wrong word
[TS]
00:55:26
◼
►
maybe instead of simplicity maybe once a
[TS]
00:55:28
◼
►
directness there's certainly a lot of
[TS]
00:55:30
◼
►
directness with ac/dc there's that you
[TS]
00:55:33
◼
►
know what i mean but what's X I'm saying
[TS]
00:55:35
◼

directness to it it's why the first
[TS]
00:55:45
◼
►
remotes record to me still it's goofy
[TS]
00:55:48
◼

[TS]
00:55:51
◼
►
chords on some songs I mean that's
[TS]
00:55:53
◼
►
overstated you know what I mean there's
[TS]
00:55:54
◼
►
a certain directness and it just say
[TS]
00:55:56
◼
►
there are four chords on that record is
[TS]
00:55:57
◼
►
to overstate it
[TS]
00:55:58
◼
►

[TS]
00:56:01
◼
►
minor but the but you know what all
[TS]
00:56:03
◼
►
those have in common is that they have a
[TS]
00:56:04
◼
►
directness and if you take out the part
[TS]
00:56:06
◼
►
where you add this layer of outside
[TS]
00:56:08
◼
►
earnest or you know that you choose you
[TS]
00:56:11
◼
►
know that over time you cling to that
[TS]
00:56:12
◼
►
outside earnest and let's not get
[TS]
00:56:13
◼
►
started on that but I think sometimes
[TS]
00:56:14
◼
►
people are little embarrassed to like
[TS]
00:56:17
◼
►
things that are direct just as some
[TS]
00:56:20
◼
►
people are embarrassed to like something

[TS]
00:57:40
◼
►
embarrassing moments on it where you get
[TS]
00:57:42

the sense that Ozzy is trying to be
[TS]
00:57:47
◼
►
yeah he understands they all understand
[TS]
00:57:50
◼
►
that they're making a new kind of music

[TS]
00:58:18
◼

frightening but you would have to be
[TS]
00:58:22
◼
►
about 10 years old i mean i understand
[TS]
00:58:24
◼
►
why why Sabbath was kind of panned by
[TS]
00:58:27
◼
►
the critics initially because we listen
[TS]
00:58:31
◼
►
to it now it just sounds like Sabbath
[TS]
00:58:33
◼
►
that's how that's how it's meant to
[TS]
00:58:35
◼
►
sound and in the context of the later
[TS]
00:58:37
◼
►
Sabbath records you get you get its
[TS]
00:58:41
◼
►
place and you understand what he's doing

[TS]
00:59:04
◼
►
they're one of my favorite bands
[TS]

00:59:07
◼
►
personally in terms of like who I

what is this one of your new thought
[TS]
01:17:40
◼
►

[TS]
01:17:41
◼

this is a new thought technology what if
[TS]
01:17:44
◼
►
i get an old at all oil tanker
[TS]
01:17:48
◼
►
I could like I'm talk about a ship a
[TS]
01:17:51
◼
►
giant ship and i construct an arena on
[TS]
01:17:56
◼
►
it on the unopened arena that seats
[TS]
01:18:00
◼
►
let's say 15,000 people on the deck of a
[TS]
01:18:05
◼
►
giant oil tanker then I park it in
[TS]
01:18:08
◼
►
international waters and I hold
[TS]
01:18:12
◼
►
tournaments where teams representing
[TS]
01:18:17
◼
►
various religions stick fight to the
[TS]
01:18:23
◼
►
death and we as we know it's a it's a
[TS]
01:18:27
◼
►
it's a secular night none it's a
[TS]
01:18:30
◼
►
non-secular neighborhood stick fight
[TS]
01:18:32
◼
