In 89 i had this video on VHS and i broke the cassette cause i played and rewinded it so many many times... Love this VIDEO !! This is the sequel to "Poison" video. Poison was about fighting his senses and trying not to loving someone who he knows was "venenomus poison", and we can assume in the end he failed and ended loving her so roughly, until the point turned violent. The riff in the brginning is similar to the one of Poison but very slow. The album 'TRASH' starts with side A with Poison and side B starts with Bed Of Nails.

You a fan of them or you just heard them today?

That band were something else, the Wikipedia page on them is 100% correct (if you don't know one meber of the band hijacked a commercial airliner & flew it to North Korea where he still lives) they are called The Japanese Velvet Underground by some but their music goes miles beyond anything Velvet Underground could ever do, I personally love the group & all their music. I found them from a piece on extreme bands ( the North Korea thing) & they make amazing music for taking MXE to, the sound & feedback just washes over you & their hypnotic basslines take you into a kinda trance.

My most loved track if I had to pick one & their best album is (imo) Yodo-Go-A-Go-Go




Much of Les Rallizes Dénudés' history remains largely shrouded in mystery and nearly nothing is known about their highly enigmatic frontman Takashi Mizutani. A few very sparse first person accounts and documentation describe Mizutani as an extremely introverted and reclusive individual with very nihilistic and solipsistic views on life. It is also evident that he had very radical leftist views and supported the Japanese Red Army.

In 1970, the original bass player Moriaki Wakabayashi assisted in the hijacking of Japan Airlines Flight 351 orchestrated by the Japanese Red Army. Wakabayashi has been living in North Korea since the hijacking. Mizutani was allegedly offered a role in the hijacking, but turned it down. After this event, however, a paranoid Mizutani kept a low profile due to his ties with the Red Army, which he supposedly would eventually cut ties with in the early to mid 70s to avoid government scrutiny, although it remains unknown if he was ever affiliated with the Red Army at all.

I can hear it in the music that they had quite a lives. To do this kind of music in the 70s requires alot. Of what? Idk just something thats not usually found in people.

Also, I started listening to the album cause we seem to share some musical similarities. This album feels like my biggest all time fav. Tame Impala, but 40 years in the past lol. Quite the trip.

I had the same thing go through my mind when I first heard them myself, this bit knocked me over as I had 100% same go through my head "To do this kind of music in the 70s requires alot. Of what? Idk just something thats not usually found in people."

My music taste is quite far, I love stuff from Japanoise & Aphex Twin stuff via Mississippi Delta Blues through to raw as fuck Black Metal, people have always said I am "weird" when it comes to music for some reason. Back in the mid 1990's I used to go with my mate to the city & we would visit the reggae & jungle record shop, it was full of Jamacian men & rasta types, I was the only white guy in there & I was after the latest Ragga Jungle while wearing a Cannibal Corpse t-shirt, I got weird looks the first few weeks but when they learned I knew my reggae & dub so well & loved Ragga Jungle they treated me like on of their own.

If I had to pick one music style it would be the proper blues (the stuff from the Delta) played by Mississippi Fred McDowell, that music is something you feel inside your very soul. The slide guitar & riff Fred played still knock my socks off still to this day, I don't know of another guitar player that could get a tone like Fred, he gives me the chills still to this day.

"I gotta go back down the field now" - Fred McDowell
 
Another band I love is The Brian Jonestown Massacre & I found via their stuff this woman Tess Parks, this album is one I'd go back into a burning building to rescue she is that good. This album has seen me through several heroin withdrawls.


 
Gonna listen to all the stuff you posted. Btw cannibal corpse shirt at a reggae shop sounds funny as fuck lol. Left me laughing for a minute.
Also interesting that you posted about the brian jonestown massacre. We have a jonestown here in finnish too.
When my mate died we did some strong as fuck pcp analogue a few days before while listening to this...

Listened this a few days ago also maybe first time this year.
Cant listen to this shit anymore seriously
 


probably one of the most unintentionally funny music videos ever at this point, couldn't put this out today lol

Your Finnish? That is one of a very small few places I really wanna see before I die.
You lot have the most brutal Black Metal on earth, Satanic Warmaster, White Death & Goatmoon are amazing.

That Simo Häyhä Häyhä from World War 2 AKA White Death is quite something, to me his always wrapped up the Finnish people the way I see them.

I got some weird looks the first few times I walked in there, when they learned I know my Ragga /Dancehall /Dub Reggae as well as any 50 year old Rasta they gave me respect.
This was the early 1990's so people like Bong Ra were years away with their hybrid of Ragga / Brutal Metal music.

Yeah, Im finnish. This fucking culture here makes those black metal bands. Its natural here to like heavier music.

Simo häyhä was seriously on a another level. He is the apex of finnish "duty" and "mental strength". He even lived to almost 100 years of age.

Oh wtf there are ragga/metal combinations? Could you send me some recommendations.

If I've ever read anything about the Finnish & their culture that wraps them up in my view it is this.
When I first began to really learn about World War 2 & I started to get into the Finnish I was truly shocked by their brutal ways but I support their stand 100%

You asked for it...........My personal fave of all time is by Bong-ra

This feels like old Slipknot on cathinones.
You just inspired me to get back to making beats, thanks.
