damn, this guys are awesome..and their discography is huge!! basically rock oriented stuff, but with every possible sound imaginable..sounds like improvisation type of music..i thought it was sort of weird compilation thingy at first since the songs are so various..fantastic stuff! |

definitely interesting dudes... i'm still sort of getting into their stuff... have a bunch of albums on the computer, but i haven't quite connected with any of them yet... but yeah, they have a weird series called Carnival Folklore Ressurection, which is truly strange... perhaps that's where your album is from? check out 98.6 is death if you haven't... it's messed... i have lots of their stuff in my shared, if you're interested... oh yeah, plus Sublime Frequencies is their undertaking, and it's super interesting... |

haha, thanks, but i think i have pretty much all of them, sublime frequencies and sun city girls..it's been pretty much all i've been listening to lately. that 98,6 has some fantasitc stuff on it!! weird you find hard to get into, i thought it'd be right up your alley. |

i've heard of this band many times, but i haven't heard their music before... i listened to the "web exclusives" mp3's and i don't like those much at all. i tried to play the .ra files but they aren't working for me at the moment. what do you recommend listening to on this page? |
||||||||
|

|

their , but i'd say those web exclusives can give you a pretty good idea of their general sound.. (that 'unplayable' song is fantasitc btw, gets totally wicked towards the end..) |

wow thanks for all the links! yeah, the stuff on boomkat and the .ram page sounds better to me. interesting stuff. but i prefer . :) |

yes, it's a real nice song, definitely much more to do with real music, but i sort of prefer that raw, minimalist, odd improvisations at the time :) 'radio one' is perhaps my fav album of theirs in case someone else is willing to give then a try :D |

haha, didn't you recommend me black flag couple of days ago? :) "Rick: (It was) opening for Black Flag. We came out with a weird jazz approach to a bunch of skinheads. They absolutely hated us, started throwing things at us. We ended up getting most of the skinheads on stage with us playing horns by the end of the night... They were bad- mouthing us over the mikes while they were onstage, telling the audience how bad we sucked... At first they were against us, then they were for us. We didn't give a shit what they thought." |

The Sun City Girls are America's premier underground band. No qualifiers such as "arguably" or "possibly" are necessary. For going on 20 years now they have steadily, relentlessly amassed a body of work that is simply without peer or precedent in American music, "rock" or otherwise. Their ouevere encompasses a dizzying array of styles, genres, and influences, yet no bands' music is more completely and distinctly their own. In their live and recorded performances, they have challenged and explored the implications of such anachronisms as "art," "beauty," "humor," "culture," "reality" and "bullshit" in ways that none of today's artists in any field can even imagine. While the bumper stickers on every other Volvo encourage us to "subvert the dominant paradigm" and every other punk-funk-ska-swing band insist that they are "into all kinds of music," the Sun City Girls take these and many other kinds of ideological and aesthetic statements, push them to their conclusions, and reap the attendant rewards of obscurity, confusion and ridicule. Apparently they believe that somebody has to |

yes, and black flag also had a lot of trouble with their audiences. they didn't like the traditional "punk rocker" at all. that's why they grew out their hair and started playing jazzy metal and had these weird opening bands - to piss off the annoying skinheads who would come to their concerts. |

hard to tell since all the other 'songs' are completly different :) that batman theme song i posted above is from the same album, but again the only song of that kind :) |

|

|
|
it is right up my alley... i just have to get off my ass and spend more than 10 consecutive minutes with it... things keep coming up that prevent me from doing this for some reason... black flag is also quite cool, i really dig the song Sixpack... |
