and you basically summed up every reason i have avoided even clicking on the radiohead thread.

What The Muse Thread Would Have Looked Like Had This Forum Been Around In 1999

74:10 - Everything stops & we get loads of people banging cutlery together. Well I wasn't expecting that.

Urban, since I've never been a big fan of Yes, I was amused by your blow-by-blow description of your successful attempt to listen to a whole album...especially when you said the music sounded like loads of people banging cutlery together. I rather like surprises, so I should probably listen to that song.

Psychic TV - N.Y. Scum

This album consists of two songs both of approx 15 minutes each. Here's a brief description of each song.

N.Y. Scum - For the first 5 minutes some guy rips as much feedback out of his guitar as he can manage while being backed by a bunch of Hare Krishna's on percussion, all the while a drunk couple has a domestic argument. The final 2 minutes drunk guy attempts to make a techno record.

In a word ... Brilliant.

Rating 5/5 Soiled Pants

Hmm....your short review inspired me to listen again to a Psychic TV song (but a shorter one than N.Y. Scum): "Godstar." I also listened to "Have Mercy." They have a raw quirky sound that's fun. The "Have Mercy" song with the words "I love you" in it reminds me of a talking dog who says, "I ruv woo," whom I saw once on the David Letterman show.

I was disappointed I haven't found "N.Y. Scum" online yet, because I'd like to hear what a bunch of Hare Krishnas playing percussion sound like.

The...the whole thing?! (Gulp.) Well, I guess at least it isn't Yes. Sure. Send me the link to N.Y. Scum. (GAA! What have I gotten myself into!)

You win cool points for that line alone.
