Semi Finals For Last Of The Ghetto Astranauts
prototypepariah replied to Blender's topic in Matthew Good
It might not be in the spirit of the poll. The Orginal version of SWW is ok, ho-hum. But the reworked one with the extended lyrics is one of my favorite songs. So with that in mind, SWW -
Private Going-away Show For Vancouverites
prototypepariah replied to sockcrotch's topic in Matthew Good
The sound on the youtube video is really really good...I'm shocked how similar it sounds to a full blown show. Any chance of someone make an audio only file when all's said and done? I'm sure i'm not the only one that would like to burn this to a cd for on the road listening !!!! -
pretty good song, lots of pottey mouth which was very surprising. Probably the best of the RK tracks.
-
lol...this will go over real well.
-
any recordings or this or any of the shows this summer? might not be another chance for awhile
-
there is a version from commedore ballroom bootlegged. Actually I think there was two shows from the BM era. They quality was really really poor. There is also a Buffalo recording floating around. I don't have them but I bet they are on the hub somewhere! The munich one is probably the best recording with the extra lyrics that I know about.

Second Round Of Last Of The Ghetto Astranauts
prototypepariah replied to Blender's topic in Matthew Good
no comparision. new disguise is one of MG best tracks period. -
Actually, you could probably argue that US policy caused all three of those... PS: if by communism you mean the Cold War, that is. I really don't want to debate the finer points of why things happen, especially on this part of the board so this will be my final post. If someone wants to tell me how stupid and foolish I am for not running around wanting to blame the world's problems on the big brother pm me. How in the world did the US cause the cold war? if you mean by not dummying up and letting Russia turn into a 20th century imperealist nation. Which to a certain degree they did anyway, also to a much lesser degree the US has done as well. Secondly on that point what world power was the US during the Russian revolution? Lenin certainly didn't have anything to do with America. The Cold War wasn't just America V Russia it was Democracy V Socialism. Other countries might not have factored into it as much but were just as involved. What do you think happens if America says hmm..were going to not involve outselves with this "russian, commie problem" It goes away? A war ravged Europe would have countered the biggest country in the world at the time? You might not be speaking Russian but you might not be voting against the guy that raised your taxes w/o risking your life. Khmer rouge - I have a very limited knowledge of, but if you want to blame the US for not taking Pol Pot out then how could you justify being upset at US foriegn policy now in Iraq, or even mention it in regards to anything else. You can't pick and choose when a country should topple dictators or influence actions to benefit a populace. Beyond that the whole group of people in power were based on communism. In what way has the US influenced Islamic extremist to fire onto Isreal? By inventing the country after WW2? That would be a HUGE stretch. By giving them aid of the last decades? Again huge stretch. By being in Iraq? Now that might not help matters but if they(hezbollah/whomever) were really that upset then they could concentrate on the prime American soldiers there instead of randomly rocketing towns in Isreal. Your talking about an enraged people that have been for centurys, long before the problem child America. They hate jewish people top to bottom and openly want to wipe them off the face of the earth. There no drawing comparisions between the US foriegn policy and blowing up a bus with dynamite straped to your body. There is no way to blame someone else for doing that. As the most influencal force the US is forced into an opinion or reaction in almost every global issue. Just as Britan or Rome or whomever has before and just as some other country will have to be someday in the future.

Everyone's gotta listen the first time. Making a generic "don't listen" comment is totally baseless. X amount of people died because y amount of people killed them. Papers and lectures didn't kill them. In general I would doubt that US soldiers wonder around the streets looking to kill people. Does it make it right that we are intervening in soviergn countries affairs? Personally no it doesn't we should leave peoples busniess to themselves. But to blame the worlds problems on US policy is putting a blanket over a river. Is it US foriegn policy that caused the Isreali's to invade Lebanon. Was it US foriegn policy that caused communisum? That caused the kymer rouge? Don't get me wrong the US polictal engine is self servering not even for it's own country but personal interests. Next point...Why in the begining is MG an artist for writing how he feels and that we shouldn't listen if we dont approve. but then at the end here you saying that people should be writing about specific ideas on a global scale. To me that seems like they would then be robots instead of artists. If an "artist" doesn't feel motivated by political issues but he writes about them wouldn't that undermind the whole idea? back to the song: The music is really really nice and chorus is cool pushing the boundries of being a poppy cliche while stilling being catchy and thoughful. I love the acoutic approach he's taking. The rest of the lyrics are over the top politcal rhetoric. So bold and direct, it's written itself right out of current event clippings. It's not art it's cut and paste. It's not artistic it sounds like some "under the influence" college kids whining outside class.

This SWW is from Halifax floating around right? or from a similar time 04/05? definitely an awesome ending to suburbia....I really like the other ending to it...Something about a doctor/pills. I think it's at the end of the german live set.

Curious what games people are into in the online variety. How is the overall experience? Cost? Enjoyment? Suggestions? for instance I know that Everquest is very expansive and can get expensive. Is there other games outthere worth playing on the cheap side? Thanks All!

can't pass can't shoot. - if you search the threads there is several topics exactly like this.

Dissapointed that Suburbia hasn't been attempted acoustic on this tour? Personally that is my favorite MG song and I think it would translate extrememly well to an acoustic format. I'd also would love for MG to give boy and his machine gun a go since I think the lyrics are really sad and would go well with an acoustic strum......thoughts?????
-
wow - it sounds really nice, excellent job! the set is a little ho hum but it's much appricated.
-
excited to hear a studio version of the song for a change, wonder if it's just gonna be a live intro ala some of the suburbia live cuts.
