Neurosis (2 Viewers)

[Corm]

I've been having a total Neurosis renaissance recently since I managed to fix a broken video that I taped off German TV when I was there for a few months 4/5 years ago. I hadn't watched it in about 3 years, it's pretty funny, Steve Von Till & Scott Kelly introduce these piss-awful German alt-rock videos and shit, but there's also some real good interview bits with them and the videos for Locust Star, Cold Ascending and Under The Surface, plus live footage of them playing The Web and Eye. So fucking good, it reminded me of how fucking devastating they are live. Anyway, after resurrecting that video I'm salivating at the prospect of more...so I'm looking for live footage/bootlegs, both recordings and videos...anyone got anything? I'll buy 'em off ya or swap or even just to get a loan or anything?

...have they gone off the deep end?

It's all cool with the videoing, recording and so on, but when it gets to constructing-your-own-one part...ah now.

apparently some new video of theirs is "on heavy rotation" on mtv2
8-0
though that could be just a vicious rumour, can'#t remember where i heard it

They are soooo good live I wouldnt bother with videos. Although I'm pretty sure Mero videoed them in Barnstormers all those years ago. Good luck finding that!!!

I remember seeing them about 5 years ago and they were good, and I didn't even know who the hell they were at the time.

Best live band ever.Fact.
Corm,I have an insanely good video of them from around the time of "Souls at Zero" somewhere in Europe.Pop round some night for a cup of tea and we'll have a bit of a gander.

Despite having a release on the once amazing Lookout records, Neurosis are no pop punk band.

Let that be a warning to all pop punk fans.

Thank you, oh master of the fucking obvious.I think we all have a rough idea what Neurosis sound like by now,thanks.

I believe the Baron's warning is very valid for all pop punk fans.

I also believe that it was a wee joke and some people should not take Neurosis so seriously - they are shite.

Surely not, Enemy of the sun is an absolute classic album

 

[Baron]

Settle yourself it was just a wee joke.

Green Day are better than Neurosis (not a joke).

Michael Moore is guilty of doing similar things on his website too!

 

[Lili Marlene]

fucks sake. all the trendy fuckers these days hate michael moore, fast food nation et al and its wrecking me head
these guys may have ripped off others but that doesnt make their points any less valid, JUST BECAUSE OTHER PEOPLE HAVE READ THE BOOK DOESNT MEAN YOU SHOULD IGNORE IT. For every idiot who reads one book and thinks they know everything about a topic there are about seven idiots putting that person down for trying.

you're all a bunch of elitist pricks


grr, i am angry

I personally don't "hate" Michael Moore or whoever, Naomi Klein and that I suppose, what annoys me is the way in which its done. I read the MM book Stupid White Men, and it was entertaining enough (if a bit too post-ironic self-referential style American) with some good points made, but I've one huge problem with it. It doesn't even suggest that any of the problems in thebook might possibly be changed by people themselves with their own actions. Instead it stupidly and blindly blames all the problems it brings up on Geroge Bush and his cronies, rather than challenging the system which has put these fuckers in power, and will continue to put other fuckers in power. The entire feeling I got from the book was something like this "There's all these problems, but its all the fault of the Bush government, you can't do anything about it, so blame it on them and sit tight. Oh, and don't even bother looking into legitimate ways of recycling and responsible living, cos I followed a bin truck once and it just mixed all the rubbish up together anyway".

And I won't even get into the fact that the "legitimate dissent" culture of these books is just another product to be assimilated, digested and ignored.

Co-opt and destroy.

Anyway, fuck Michael Moore, Neurosis know where its at.

 

[Winty]

I pretty much agree with Corm there especially on the "Fuck Micheal Moore, Neurosis is where it's at".

Despite that I am going to see "Roger and Me" tonight.
