Pere Ubu · Deprogrammed Music Podcast

0:32
It's deprogram the podcast where we try to get you into a band.
0:36
Today's band. Oh, boy, I have a feeling that
0:40
there will be some conversations heated, perhaps, maybe not, but
0:45
at least conversations it's pair you, Boo and we're so this was
0:51
one of the Bands John that you put up.
0:53
I think it was in one of your many, many early lists, like
0:57
your long-ass lists. So Perry Perry, who talked to me
1:00
about it. Why are we talk?
1:01
Why are we talking about? I'm that I um yeah père ubu is
1:04
one of those bands that you hear a lot about like growing up, you
1:10
know, getting into kind of alternative music.
1:12
Music and punk rock music, everyone points to spans like oh
1:16
you've got to hear them. Like there were one of those
1:19
bands that never really broke through commercially for good
1:23
reason, but they were influential on a lot of
1:26
different bands. And when we had done the, we
1:29
were doing the Stooges It kind of triggered in my head because
1:35
the band that père ubu came from was a band called Rocket from
1:39
the tombs and they, you know, started out in like 72 or 73 and
1:45
Ohio when they were very influenced by the Stooges, like
1:47
the kind of picked up that kind of like gnarly, garage, Rock
1:52
torch and and kind of ran with it for a little bit before they
1:55
flamed out as well. And they turned into half half
1:59
the members of rocket from the tombs.
2:01
To père ubu in the other half. Went to The Dead Boys, which you
2:04
know, we went on to punk rock, classic young loud, sound ideal
2:07
that we got to do The Dead Boys at some point.
2:09
But père ubu is an important band.
2:14
Like you, you think of like more popular bands like Talking
2:17
Heads, like television which we did Devo, who was our from, Ohio
2:21
around the same time. Even getting into.
2:24
Like like I said, like alternative music like The
2:26
Minutemen, the Pixies, père ubu, huge influence on the Pixies.
2:30
You can hear that all over. Over the stuff.
2:33
So, I just wanted to kind of dig into their catalog because I had
2:36
heard. No, I'd heard different things
2:38
over the years, but I don't think I'd ever, you know, sat
2:41
down and done the père ubu Deep dive and I wanted an excuse to
2:45
do that. And it was rewarding.
2:48
I mean, you know, we'll get into it, of course, as we go.
2:51
But I really enjoyed this. It's kind of like Outsider
2:55
music, which is like, which I really appreciate.
2:58
I love that kind of stuff. You know, there's no sense that
3:02
this is any of this stuff is ever going to get played on the
3:04
radio. And it's one of those things
3:07
that you have to kind of dig and go find and you have to kind of
3:09
unearth it, but it's rewarding when you do.
3:13
So that's why, that's why I wanted to do père ubu now.
3:17
I may be wrong in this but I know for a fact that this came
3:21
up like on an after-the-fact and then Fredo got roped in here,
3:24
but we're going to go to Randy first because I think maybe
3:26
Randy signed up for it and then volunteered.
3:29
Volunteered it to the group. So what made you want to jump in
3:32
on this one? Randy.
3:35
I think it was just a little bit of peer pressure, a little bit
3:39
of just you know, everybody else is doing it.
3:42
So why not we had, we had been doing these panels and I think a
3:46
bunch of my like I picked the Stooges I picked television, you
3:49
know, I might have pick one or two others, but John really
3:52
didn't get to pick his out of this grouping.
3:56
So I feel it was probably his turn and I didn't want to say no
4:01
to that because everybody had said note, all my head suggests,
4:04
all my stuff. So, II had zero idea of who père
4:10
ubu has zero. Did not know him never heard of
4:13
them and when they brought it up immediately, when I heard the
4:16
name light, all right, this is gonna be weird.
4:18
You know, don't judge the book by its cover but for this.
4:21
Okay. Yeah, it's kind of what you
4:24
might think. How I went into this with a very
4:28
open mind since I didn't have any at all.
4:32
And I was impressed by something.
4:35
Things I was just intrigued by others and I guess by other
4:40
things I was just kind of questioning why.
4:44
And you know it's I like what John said there because I'm
4:48
always trying to find like why other bands that I respect and
4:54
appreciate are doing what they do.
4:56
And although, you know, you mentioned Devo, I heard a lot of
4:59
Devo in this one band that you didn't mention Prime.
5:02
As I heard tons of Primus in this.
5:04
And I don't know. If they're influenced by them at
5:06
all, but I would not be, I would not be shocked for a second.
5:10
If there were Pixies, like you can see it all over, of course,
5:14
but they are. And, you know, the first thing I
5:18
thought of with some of the, I guess they're all experimental
5:22
songs, but I guess you can say, less experimental songs.
5:24
Is this came out. Like, what?
5:27
1975? And 1978.
5:29
What was the first record? What was the modern dance 78-75?
5:33
There were some singles and 75 76.
5:35
But he was 77. Could this go back as being one
5:40
of the earliest Post Punk records.
5:43
Like it had a lot of post-punk, kind of feel to it before
5:48
because post-punk you have to go back to like 1980 you know, when
5:51
when that all kind of went into play so it's good to kind of
5:55
know the history and you're absolutely right.
5:57
Nobody talks about this band. I don't think I would ever had
6:01
found them anywhere. You look at them, their numbers
6:04
on spot. Via their miniscule.
6:07
Almost nobody knows who they are.
6:08
But every now and again, you kind of want to get in and say,
6:12
all right, well, what do the bands that have made it big?
6:16
What do the bands that I truly respect and so many other people
6:20
truly respect, what are they going out and listening to that?
6:25
They're taking the influence on and sometimes you just got to
6:29
dig into those bands and find out who they are.
6:30
Because, you know, they might not be ever rock and roll.
6:35
All of a material or like material that you would even
6:38
discuss on any other podcast. But for this, I think they do
6:44
deserve their do. So that's why I'm here.
6:47
All right, I feel like we went in the appropriate order based
6:51
on on how we've gone so far. So Fredo.
6:54
I have a little bit of a sneak peek on what you're going to say
6:57
here, but you decided were. You got roped in on this too.
7:00
So so what made you decide to say?
7:03
Yes. And how do you feel first off?
7:08
I want to thank John taking the blame for, for Perry who because
7:14
I thought I had suggested it and I was going to apologize to
7:17
everybody. This was utter trash.
7:22
I feel like I got roped into them based on one song off of
7:28
one album. That I knew that we didn't even
7:31
cover in this because song called I hear they smoke the
7:34
barbecue off. When Worlds, Collide, Which is
7:38
just a Tamiya great song. Wonderful.
7:42
Wonderful song. I happy song a very like like I
7:46
I would hear that song three or four times in a row because it
7:49
just made me the feeling it gave me just wonderful.
7:54
So when we started talking about, you know, this panel
7:58
right here is done. Oh my God, I don't know and
8:03
maybe I'm sure it probably yeah. You know, and so you feel that
8:11
we're enough on the same page. We're still different where if
8:19
somebody. brings the band up, it's like, okay, I'm ready to
8:24
give it a go especially with them having song that I really,
8:28
really like, And I said before you guys got here, I, you know,
8:34
I said, I feel for Justin, I have a whole new respect for him
8:38
because of the fact that this is the first band that I've ever
8:42
gone into, absolutely clueless. It said, one song the and, I
8:53
told, Justin has he ever seen me drink during one of these shows?
9:00
He said no, there's a reason for that.
9:05
I it was pulling teeth to come up with 20.
9:09
It could not stand. This group least this group of
9:14
albums that we had which I'm going to assume are all from the
9:17
early, the early days of the band.
9:20
The band I believe was together until like 82 and then they came
9:25
back in 87 or something along those lines.
9:30
Let me see real quick. Give me a second here yet, it
9:33
would go from 75 to 82 and then they get back together, an 87,
9:37
and the song that I had heard, they had done in 91, which I'm
9:40
going to assume at that point. They were completely different
9:43
band. You definitely here.
9:49
Some of the songs or some of the influences of the time as to
9:57
whether they influence my bands or band's influence them.
10:03
That's a unique question. I definitely heard some Devo.
10:06
I definitely heard some television.
10:08
I also heard some privates some Primus.
10:11
I heard some B-52s I heard I heard some Roxy Music.
10:18
But it was, you know, avant-garde, you know, I heard
10:23
Talking Heads, Talking Heads were avant-garde.
10:26
These guys were just something. I mean this was to me honestly,
10:32
this was trash and when it comes to the top 10, if you guys say
10:39
okay, either talk to him. Go.
10:40
Okay. Yeah sure sexually.
10:43
I have. Hey I literally look The song
10:49
that I said, I liked by them, I put on this list and it's not
10:52
even on the reviewable albums. So that just showed you.
10:55
I just want to get the name of that song out there so that
10:58
people can can hear the name of that song.
11:01
And if you listen to this top ten, I'll to remain to remember
11:05
the name of that song, and I'll mention it when it's time and I
11:09
want you to listen to the top 10 and then listen to that song.
11:13
Tell me that those aren't two different bands, so I didn't
11:17
know again, third person row, I don't even think I had heard the
11:22
name of this band I didn't. I didn't know much going in.
11:26
So I had no expectations. You know, we'll talk about like,
11:33
how I felt as we were listening but John, you know, we had we
11:37
did have to put a cap somewhere. You guys did this while I was
11:40
out of town, you came up with a list.
11:42
First of all, how did You how did you come up with what we
11:45
would cover? And then, secondly, as you're
11:49
coming through, how did you find your 20?
11:51
Did you have? Did you what was your process?
11:55
But yeah I wanted to stick with the kind of original incarnation
12:04
of the band and like the earlier records and then we included
12:07
like a singles collection that had some of their really always
12:12
early stuff on there. Yeah, and Fredo's, right?
12:17
Like they did kind of change their sound and I believe
12:19
they're even still around today. I know the David Thomas still
12:24
makes music under the rocket from the tombs had a couple of
12:26
reunions that earlier in the 2010s and I think père ubu and
12:30
some Incarnation is still around which is cool, but they don't
12:34
sound like this anymore. So yeah, I wanted to kind of get
12:37
at the, the original stuff, which I always kind of liked to
12:40
do on a band that's been around for a long time.
12:45
Coming up with my 20. Um, it was difficult.
12:49
I had to go through and like, like, you guys have said, like
12:51
this is not an easy. Listen, this is not anywhere
12:54
near top 40 music, but I wanted to kind of give some of the
13:00
weirder stuff a chance because that was part of what they were.
13:04
So, I tried not to stick to all of the, the more like
13:08
traditional song, structure type stuff and I tried not to stick
13:11
to all of the weird stuff I tried to get Decent mix.
13:15
Randy. What was your what was put in
13:17
your 20 together like for this? I have to preface this by saying
13:22
that, yes, I decided to put them on in the car one day.
13:26
And I put on like, I guess the, the, the top 5 most played stuff
13:31
on Spotify, and I was very impressed right away.
13:34
And I texted the group and I said, guys, they're awesome,
13:37
this is great. And then I listened to the list
13:42
and I'm like, well, the whole entire discography is not
13:47
exactly what I thought it was. And you had to be in a really
13:53
open mind to listen to this. And you also had to be in a
13:56
headspace where you could because there were a lot of
14:00
times where I was just listening to a song.
14:01
And I said, I can't even bear this right now, it just noise.
14:07
There was one. I don't remember.
14:09
Look, I'll preface, I didn't take a lot of the weird stuff I
14:13
took stuff that was weird but sounded like music.
14:19
There was An awful later record, I believe, and it was, it felt
14:23
like somebody was changing the tuning in a radio station in a
14:29
car radio or something. It just felt like the tuning and
14:31
we like, yeah, I'm like what? The like this, that's that and
14:37
Fredo. You said it best.
14:38
It's not avant-garde. It's garbage.
14:40
You're 100% right with that. And you think the whole entire
14:44
discography garbage but some of that stuff, it's just like,
14:47
what, what's the point? Who wants to actually sit here
14:49
and Well that's genius. It's not know.
14:52
Nobody should make that excuse for them, the green heart, then
14:59
put it in the other category and should go in some.
15:02
I don't know some. Artificial noise.
15:06
Program kind of thing, I don't know, but look, I found 20.
15:10
It was really hard, once I got to 15.
15:12
I thought it was maxed out. I really did.
15:14
And then I listened to the remaining like, 910 that I had
15:19
and I'm like, all right, I'll pull that, I'll pull that, I
15:21
tried to find like little things.
15:23
All right, this is got a nice hook to it.
15:26
Alright, this, you know, I can remember something in this.
15:32
But yeah, this this was not like the most, I had fun listening to
15:37
it but not the most excitable. Listen, so Fredo you already
15:43
kind of mentioned that it was hard to get to the 20 like what
15:49
I guess. Did you actually get there?
15:51
Um and well, I got to 19, okay? So put that I put that other
15:56
song, right? So like what were you looking
15:58
for as you're putting your list together?
16:01
First off. And and this is no disrespect to
16:04
John. Please, you know, because I
16:07
started to kind of hear something in your voice like oh
16:09
man, you know, but no no, this got no respect, you know, I
16:15
mean, I'm I'm positive. I listen to bands that you guys
16:19
think of garbage and that's fine Taste of different.
16:23
I also want to say that I grew up.
16:24
Listening to dr. Demento For those who don't
16:28
know, dr. Demento was a DJ We had a
16:34
syndicated. Show the dr.
16:35
Demento show. Late 70s and throughout the 80s
16:40
that played novelty and an avant-garde records.
16:43
I mean trust me he plays some noise so it's not like it was
16:49
thrown off the noise. But when you tell me Sonic Youth
16:56
was inspired by this band and I hate you Sonic Youth.
16:59
I think that's a garbage man. I'm like, yeah, I 100% see it
17:06
mean that songs on this list that I didn't hear the complete
17:10
way through there, it's like, okay, that's enough.
17:16
I need five more songs Put this on that that list.
17:22
Um, yeah, I do die. You know, I listen to
17:26
everything. I say everything.
17:29
I mean everything. You know, I listen to polka, I
17:32
listened to two 20s, you know, a flapper music.
17:39
I listen to two big band. I listened to death metal, I
17:43
listen to everything and when I tell you, I don't get it.
17:49
I'll get it and a you booboo is a band that I've known of for
17:55
years. and is a band that I have heard if you know, influence
18:02
people and I kind of before I heard this, I kind of one of
18:09
them is almost like the Ramones in that Ramones never got the
18:13
credit that they were due. if you listen to him, you can hear
18:17
you can hear the genius in it and yeah, there's This band to
18:26
me, didn't deserve credit, no and and I'm sure they're going
18:31
to be people who listen to this and go Fredo.
18:33
You're being a dick. No, I'm not, not at all.
18:38
It wanted to like this band based on one song I wanted more
18:44
of that song instead I got this and like I said, Austin, I have
18:50
never drank during a show. Also also be prepared for me to
18:54
fucking take like, 15, piss, brakes, cool.
19:00
You know what I mean? Turn this like, literally, like
19:07
I won't listen to music for a week, just because I might hear
19:10
a note that reminds me of this. Well, so let me, let me pick up
19:14
there. I hear everything.
19:20
You all are saying and I can agree on a level that in
19:25
totality the, the portion of the discography that we listen to is
19:30
challenging at points, In your. So if you do, you're so nice
19:36
challenging. Well, it would I say that
19:39
because there's there's points where it was very challenging in
19:42
the good in a good way that like that really like it challenged
19:46
me to continue listening and, and it got me to these points in
19:50
the songs that I really enjoyed. And then there's other points
19:53
where it's challenging in a very negative way that make me want
19:57
to hit the skip button, but I, here's the hold on to Justin.
20:03
I hear that. Yes, was the challenge for me,
20:06
but so there's, there's, there's points in this discography where
20:11
there, where it's really close to, like, something like a
20:15
straightforward. Like, I got a lot of fugazi
20:18
notes. I got a lot of, like, at the
20:19
drive-in notes and, you know, while it's not, you know,
20:23
obviously not perfect. It, look, I got those vibes
20:26
occasionally in. Like, there's, there's these
20:29
times where there's this undertone of, like, just this
20:31
great Rock, too. Tune with like weird guitar
20:35
parts over and I'm like, cool. I I'm into that and like there's
20:40
points where this band really found me, but it felt like every
20:44
time the band really found me. The next track would completely
20:48
lose me, and I don't know, man. Like as a whole, you know, it's
20:55
three hours, something like that.
20:57
So it didn't didn't bother me. But I think maybe if we if we
21:02
included more maybe there would have been, I don't know.
21:05
Like, if we would have gotten into what they changed into,
21:08
like maybe maybe it, they might not have found me at all.
21:13
Like I might have technically liked it better but I don't know
21:16
man. Like there's there's things in
21:19
this part of their discography that we that we covered that is
21:25
right up my wheelhouse. Like it's it's stuff that I
21:28
really enjoy. So it It is, it's great.
21:33
We're all walking music because it's challenging and that's what
21:37
I'll say about it. Great walking music cuz it's
21:39
challenging. You know, I heard elements of
21:43
bands that I love mmm. The problem was.
21:50
A minute you like. Okay, you know, wow, that sounds
21:53
like television. I really love television.
21:55
Let me think you'd hear something.
21:57
That was just unlistenable and I don't mean in the next song.
22:01
I mean, in that one song Yeah you're right.
22:07
You're absolutely right. Yeah you'd hear that one, you
22:09
know again I said you know they got songs.
22:11
Sound like B-52s and we did the B-52s we television.
22:16
We did television, I did Devo. So you know these bands that I
22:22
really, really enjoy and I really really love and I hear
22:26
that one. Bars 3 bars with like okay,
22:31
let's see we're going and then all of a sudden, you hear The
22:34
god-awful singing or, you know, something else that just like I
22:38
can't fucking listen to this in any more.
22:42
Yeah, I challenge it. I wish it was challenging.
22:48
You know, that would be an upgrade from Haifa and again,
22:51
John no disrespect man. So you know, I'm going to
22:56
pleasure you. Yeah, I'm going to pitch it to
22:58
John here because for everybody this is yeah that you know that
23:03
is for sure. It's not for everybody.
23:05
I enjoyed it John, just saying. So we're going to go to the to
23:09
the next level which I don't know based on what we've said so
23:14
far could be really easy could be really difficult based on
23:17
everything. Said so far John Ford the final
23:20
say, how many do you think we're going to get through
23:22
unanimously? I'm going to say to it's
23:27
probably a good bet. If you're if you're a placing
23:31
bets and you are a listener to is probably a good bet, Randy
23:35
what are you thinking? Well it was only like 58 songs
23:41
or something like that and it's really hard like some of these.
23:44
It just they they do you know pop out and you're like okay
23:48
well that's catchy that's a legit song Alright it would be
23:52
very hard. I can't see a few of these being
23:58
you know, not unanimous out of this group just because of what
24:02
they are as songs and because it's smaller than the Average
24:07
deprogrammed. If it was like 90, I would say
24:10
zero but I'm going to say three on this, okay?
24:14
Three and Fredo 0, I will get no.
24:22
Look if if we get one, it's odds odds.
24:28
Okay, I can guarantee you that I did not put anything on my list.
24:34
I that I could say. Yeah.
24:35
I think the guys would like this nothing.
24:39
You know what playing the odds? Let me raise it one.
24:42
Okay. And that's playing the odds.
24:45
When you look at her and you guys didn't do Smash Mouth, and
24:49
that that hasn't come out yet it probably will come out by the
24:53
time. It's yeah, yeah, yeah.
24:56
So just to let you guys know, We only got two.
25:04
We only got what you want. The stones, man.
25:06
Yeah, yeah. But you know, but the stones.
25:11
Could see, you know, first of all, the the discography that we
25:17
that we did in the stones, had enough variance, type of music
25:22
where had all of us falling in line with the same type of
25:26
stones. I mean, II was partial to the
25:29
earlier stuff. Some of you guys were more
25:33
partial to this stuff that kind of came the the late 60s, Stone
25:39
sound, that everybody knows. Here, I honestly can't pick one
25:46
song. I would think the three of you
25:49
would agree with me Interest one but I'll go.
25:52
But I'm going to go with one heart.
25:55
You never know how it's going to go with four people.
25:57
Oh yeah, yeah. And that's and that's the other
25:59
thing too. Yeah, there's four of us here.
26:01
If there was if there was three a bee If I wasn't one of the
26:06
three. Alright, so we've got one, two,
26:09
and three. And I mean, you know what?
26:13
It's never got a forced, I know, right?
26:15
He could go either or I could go.
26:18
I could I could go the 0 or I could go way above.
26:21
And I'm going to take this number just because it's
26:23
available and it never is. I'm going with five.
26:27
I don't I don't have much guys. I don't have much Choice.
26:32
What would 0 I have zero for Greater, what's gonna go with
26:37
zero? I mean I'm playing odds here.
26:40
Yeah, still think it's 0i. Has there ever been zero?
26:45
I don't think so. I think one is one is the least,
26:49
I think one is the least, the year in review.
26:53
Doesn't count towards that, right?
26:55
No, no, it's really to 10 and that's, it's only, that's it.
26:59
That's a totally different Beast.
27:00
All right. So who very excited to see how

27:57
discography of Perry. Whoo, and hoo, boy, this is
28:01
gonna be. This is gonna get interesting 20
28:03
songs that we are now going to mash together in an attempt to
28:06
create a top tenth circuit for you.
28:07
In case you have never given pair you boot the time of day or
28:11
maybe if you're like 3/4 of us. Have never even heard of them
28:14
before. Well that's not true.
28:17
I'm sorry. Half of us had never heard of
28:19
them before. Yes a yeah I've heard of them
28:21
Fredo heard the one song and that's why he's so disappointed.
28:25
Okay. I'm going to start here because
28:27
even though I don't think I feel like this this song, right?
28:34
The line of weird /, good rock tune pretty well and I got to be
28:42
honest. Like this is one of the first
28:43
times where I have no idea. About any of my 20 anymore.
28:48
So I'm going to go with Street waves.
28:50
I got it. I do not.
28:54
You get, you're gonna have to bear with me, okay?
28:58
I got it. That was television versus
29:01
Talking. Heads is the way I described
29:04
that song. All right, so we got three
29:07
which, which is good. I have a feeling, I have a
29:11
feeling is going to be really good.
29:14
Okay, so two and three. All right John.
29:17
No, we might get 10. Just based on threes, yeah,
29:22
maybe. From my first one, I'm going to
29:27
go with one that I really appreciated.
29:31
It took me a couple of times to listen to it but but lyrically
29:34
it's about a group of people that go in a hole at the top of
29:39
the earth and live there, which I thought was a cool Concept in
29:43
the way they did was really cool.
29:45
I'm going to go with, I hear they smoke.
29:46
The barbecue is not on here. Just name my song to to mock me.
29:57
No, I liked it. That's all isn't even on the
30:00
list. It was I said, I said in the
30:02
group I said it wasn't on Spotify, but we can add it.
30:07
I never did was no. Yeah, we never not on Spotify
30:10
but I said, you could you put it on your list?
30:12
You said like if we can it's it was fair game.
30:15
Just put it in the top 10. Just put it on top.
30:17
Yeah there's the one I got that. I liked it.
30:20
Well I don't have fucking love that song.
30:23
Didn't even know to listen to it.
30:24
Yeah, I thought the concept was cool.
30:26
I love this song. I love, I love the guitar part
30:30
to it. I love the lyrics of.
30:35
I love the singer. that's the song that made me want to list
30:41
everything else and honestly and and you know what, if I win that
30:48
songs going in the top 10 and if I have to fight for that song,
30:53
If it's even available, that's the only song I'll fight for.
30:57
Yes, I have it. It's probably just in the top 10
31:00
based off of. Well it's got to so we'll see.
31:03
All right, Randy. I have no like there's not
31:08
something I like I want to play this first because of this like
31:13
I'm just gonna play shit. Like this is going to be put on
31:15
a shovel right here. We're going to start with PA ubu
31:18
dance party. I got it.
31:21
Yep. That was my last ad that was
31:27
number 20. Wow.
31:30
And Anna. I have a engaging sound but the
31:33
singing was horrible. Yeah, I got it.
31:37
Wow. There's the one.
31:42
So many interesting sounds. And it's a groover.
31:50
Oh yeah, music-wise, it's great. I'm going to look at I did not
31:58
see the darkened Sky. I did not feel the pressure.
32:00
Drop to do do Dora harmonies. I like the harmonies strolled
32:09
along the Garden. Walk.
32:10
All right, we got one, I did not look into any look like Johnny
32:15
or kind of describing the other one I did not look into any
32:18
These lyrics are just said. All right?
32:19
What sounds. Okay.
32:21
I'm gonna rip off a real interesting there.
32:22
He's he's a good writer. All right.
32:25
Well well I was well I would be I would be interested in hearing
32:30
the lyrics under somebody else's voice because I couldn't I
32:35
couldn't grab I couldn't pay attention to him.
32:38
He it to me. He was he's the Bob Dylan of
32:41
fucking avant-garde. You just thought he wasn't even
32:44
on guard and well, you know, I'm that I got it.
32:48
To classify it as something. So that's what I would classify
32:51
it as, all right, Fredo I'm going to take this.
33:01
And I put this on my list simply because the singer sounds like
33:08
Roddy Piper singing during a rant.
33:11
That's life stinks. You got it?
33:16
I got it. I got it Roddy.
33:21
Piper. Just when you think, you know,
33:23
all the answers, change the questions out that this one is
33:28
one of the ones that they kind of repurposed from the rocket
33:31
from the tombs days. A lot of times like like this is
33:40
a good example here, there's a good base like it's the there's
33:44
a good basis to the song. This is his vocals.
33:53
I can't I can't find one of my head.
33:56
Now I need a drink. I can't think I like The Kinks
34:02
like life stinks. That's the lyrics.
34:07
Yeah, some deep deep meaning in this.
34:11
All right? Look at that.
34:12
Just like just like that to and blam.
34:18
All right. I will say like much, like Randy
34:22
was saying that I don't really have many then I'm like, oh
34:25
yeah, gotta play that one. It's kind of like this is, this
34:29
is a true guessing game. um, Isn't it?
34:37
Randy? No, it's just, it's me.
34:40
I'm after you Randy's Pick Part. Yeah, yeah.
34:46
Okay. In the end, you did, you did
34:50
life stinks for now? We're in the right order.
34:52
Now, it's my turn. I know we're in the right.
34:53
Okay, I just wanted to make sure how about On the surface.
35:02
Yeah I like that. One actually, hold on.
35:06
Yeah, I got that one, too. Got it?
35:10
Holy shit. Everybody stop there.
35:14
I want to win this one. Wow.
35:20
Wow. Oh man, that makes me so happy.
35:50
What are the odds now? Fredo?
35:53
Well, I mean, again, you know, I'm definitely gonna play the
35:57
lottery with with these numbers that are.
36:01
I've got on this list right now. Yeah, it's a ball.
36:04
Nothing's been blank. Yeah.
36:08
In the song that that wasn't on the list, it wasn't blank.
36:12
Yeah I'm sure we'll get there, we'll get there.
36:15
All right John, let's start. Now with that, I'm going to pick
36:20
one of the one of the more weird ones.
36:21
I think this one the one of the main sounds is broken.
36:24
Glass Sentimental Journey. No.
36:30
Nope, nailed it. I think I had that.
36:34
I think that might have been one of my 27, possibly.
36:37
Let me type. Make sure you get to the broken
36:43
glass. What we're saying is you got to
37:01
be really really patient with this band.
37:06
You have to be willing to be challenged.
37:09
Think this is like 7 minutes or something to what?
37:12
Jesus, five and a half, for sure.
37:15
Well, that's a bit of a challenge there.
37:20
I was walking when I was listening to this.
37:22
I was like, did I trip over something?
37:29
Randy. This one reminded me of both
37:36
Primus title and a Primus song, So Big Ed's used Farms.
37:42
I got it. I got it.
37:45
No, I'm fighting for this one. Well you may not have to and I
37:54
put I put dumb but catchy that's not the one.
37:59
I didn't lie. I did that.
38:00
That one I think it is. Alright Fred.
38:06
Yeah, pick the song that my girlfriend said, it's the only
38:11
one she liked. But Terminal Tower Final
38:16
Solution. Yes, I got it.
38:20
Yep. That's another way from the
38:24
rocket from the tunes days. We gotta get these number here.
38:29
Yeah. You know what, I'll be honest
38:31
with you at this point. Now I hope we get 10.
38:36
Do because it'll be. Early odds.
39:04
Like Joy Division in there a little bit.
39:07
It should be noted, that there is yummy stuff here.
39:13
Alright, so that was Fritos. So it's back to me, huh?
39:19
What for for him? Holy shit, plenty of gameplay
39:24
left. Um let me try this one on for
39:29
size. This one's a little weird.
39:32
Small was fast. He took it, I got it.
39:39
I got it three. All right.
39:47
Let me find it on here though. No, no it's three.
39:50
I didn't have it. I know.
39:52
Oh, okay. I'm finding on my spreadsheet.
39:55
Chatter catch, catch. All right, three.
40:00
All right John. Oh, you know, I mentioned a
40:04
couple of there were a couple of there.
40:06
They hit repurposed from their old band.
40:08
And at first I was like, I'm not going to pick those because it's
40:11
not their song. But then, you know, some of them
40:14
are so good, you just can't deny it and this is kind of the
40:17
classic one. Thirty seconds over Tokyo.
40:19
Yeah, I have that. I got it.
40:23
Holy shit. We're at five.
40:27
Wow! This no I can't fucking believe
40:33
this. I'm dead.
40:34
I would have bet my house that we wouldn't have gotten more
40:36
than two. Wow, I should have been more
40:40
optimistic. Maybe I should actually liked
40:44
it. Yeah, yeah.
40:49
This one I got sounds like television.
41:00
I mean, there's still a lot of ones to go but yeah, there's the
41:05
we're halfway to 10. Yeah right only this is this is
41:09
what the third round that we're in right now.
41:11
I'm like there's only one. It really only one was a
41:16
complete out, the other one and one has to everything else has
41:21
been 3 or completed. All right.
41:28
Randy. Oh there's a couple that I think
41:32
could continue this positive momentum here.
41:35
But Justin, you love these kind of songs track 1 album one.
41:40
Let's go. Not alignment packed I got it,
41:42
got it got it. Yep.
41:48
Nick great, great song. That's the one that I had.
41:52
That sounds like Roxy Music. I almost didn't include it but
41:58
it's on undeniable song like it's just a great song But like
42:03
I felt like it didn't. It didn't do the rest of the the
42:09
album's do but every time I kept coming back to it I'm like
42:13
because you're right. I love I love track when I am
42:15
one but This didn't do what that normally does for me, if that
42:22
makes sense. Because this got me this got me
42:28
set up for something that I didn't get but I just I fucking
42:33
love this tune Right now there's nobody who that's 60, isn't it?
42:40
Yeah. Six holy fuck we might get 10.
42:47
No, that is at that we're not get oh God, what I wouldn't do,
42:53
let's break all sorts of records with this one.
42:56
Yes, all right, get 11. Yeah, let's let's try to make a
43:00
cat argue on out God. All right.
43:04
Fredo I'm going to go with one that that I labeled as Devo
43:13
meets television and that's Navy with two v's.
43:18
That's good for me. I got it, I got it.
43:22
It on the board, got it. Yep, don't tell you the program.
43:38
God's. They're just saying I owe you a.
43:41
Thank you. The good stuff is really fucking
43:44
good. The older, all these in that are
43:49
in the top ten, none of them, I said, well, I'm just adding that
43:52
as my last, you know, last five, that need to go in.
43:55
I liked all these songs. Tell me.
44:03
That's not de veau. Yeah, 100% TiVo.
44:07
Yeah, just this, this is an Ohio band.
44:09
They were around the same time, you know, the only difference is
44:11
Debo had Whip-It. They broke through in the early
44:14
80s with the had a crossover hit.
44:16
You never did. That is. 77.
44:28
Woo. Tell you what I will listen to
44:33
this top-10. Good list of it's really good
44:38
luck so far regardless of what the we get to 10 or not.
44:42
I mean we got seven through. Yeah yeah, I will, I will
44:47
definitely go back and listen to this.
44:48
We're out of ntp already. So sorry Sentimental Journey
44:52
telephone for you. All right, so let me see if I
44:57
can find some of these ones that will definitely miss.
45:02
How about Misery goats? Well, that actually almost made
45:07
it to my last five but they're not.
45:11
I have it. I don't know.
45:13
So bear with me. There's two.
45:16
Yeah, it's too. No, I don't think I have it.
45:21
I don't the fact that even hit anybody else's board, makes me
45:26
happy. All right, John elephant in the
45:31
room, classic song, modern dance.
45:33
Yes. I got it.
45:39
Oh, I thought we had a really good shot with that me to modern
45:45
dance. Like really struck me as afraid
45:47
of song actually kind of surprised.
45:51
Yeah, that's good. It's got three do.
45:53
So I think I think we did. We just kill the twos.
45:59
Yeah. Not necessarily I mean yeah
46:03
terms of numbers. Yeah.
46:05
Technically speaking, not necessarily.
46:07
All right. Randy.
46:13
Well, the sad thing is, I don't think that there's any more
46:16
automatics on my board. But I'll try this one.
46:21
How about the fabulous sequel? Yep, I got it.
46:28
No, but all got three so close. All right.
46:34
Let's see. John.
46:38
I'm almost done. We played 15 songs and only wore
46:43
one has gone in the trash. Yeah.
46:46
Wow. And couple people thought that
46:49
and 0 would get into the top 10. Yeah.
46:51
All right. Now I have no problem.
46:54
Admitting I'm wrong, you're up for it.
46:59
I'll go with Untitled. Now.
47:05
Nope, can't save you. I didn't put it on there because
47:08
it's just an early version of the modern dance.
47:12
Yeah. Okay.
47:13
I remember that little little part being in that and I kind of
47:16
thought is this a throwback it? Or they kind of doing a reprise
47:20
something. But yeah.
47:21
Okay. All right, so so we should count
47:25
that as the modern dance and that should go on because I mean
47:29
look I'm just saying here's what I'll tell you is willing to do
47:39
that. So you didn't vote for the money
47:43
dance, Fred. Oh yeah, you got me?
47:45
Yeah, I'm looking at it right now.
47:46
Okay. Ben.
47:51
Willing to count it as the modern dance.
47:55
Yeah. Why not?
47:56
If we don't get till 10 if we don't get to 10.
48:00
Because then that way you know what I'm saying?
48:02
Yeah, if we get 9 then we can get 10.
48:07
Okay, so I got seven left and I don't feel all that strong about
48:13
any of them. So I'm just going to go.
48:15
I'll just go to top of my list here, humor.
48:18
Me, no, I got it. No.
48:23
Okay that I had that one down as a Lou Reed sounding.
48:30
Let's see. Justin and Fredo had it.
48:32
So it's got its Hanging On by the skin of its teeth.
48:36
All right? Jon herb.
48:38
Housing now I got it. I want to say I got it.
48:45
I'm looking for it. bear with me again, just swore my heart.
48:59
No, I guess I didn't put it no to all right, Randy.
49:07
The vulgar boatmen bird. Another very famous, Apple's.
49:13
Yep, that's exactly what I got promise promise.
49:16
I do not. That's pile.
49:20
No, I think Fredo just said he had it off.
49:22
Ray. Do you have?
49:23
I have it. All right. all right, Fredo way
49:34
to go with my hat. Oh, no.
49:40
No, I like it. It sounded like something I
49:45
would play on dr. Demento so that's what I wanted
49:49
to pull it because it was bizarre, like it is weird, but I
49:54
felt like it went too far that way.
50:00

52:05
I'm the only one left to right. No, I yeah.
52:08
It's just me and you kid cloud cloud 149.
52:13
Yep. All right.
52:15
There's some rounder Nope. Hey 49 guitars and one, girl?
52:25
Yep. Okay, other close one.
52:27
That was like 21 or 2013. Same this one was my number 20.
52:32
I really didn't know how to feel about it, but at a real catchy
52:34
chorus Calgary's mirror, I didn't think so.
52:39
And the last one is real world. Nope, all right, all right.
52:44
What is real world? That one.
52:49
Yeah, that's one. But it's a modern dance.
52:52
Oh no, I mean I got one. That's it.
52:55
Oh like left. I'm looking yeah, I got one
53:00
left. Okay, well, what is it codex of
53:04
a dub housing? We covered a lot of ground here.
53:09
Holy shit. Sure to.
53:11
All right we got we have 20 if I mean we gotta discuss like all
53:15
the tools are out. All right.
53:18
So well do you want to keep one around or you at this point
53:22
don't care? So hold on.
53:23
So let's do this first, we got seven through unanimously, not
53:26
alignment pack life stinks Navi on the surface.
53:30
Pabu dance party, 30 seconds over Tokyo Final Solution
53:33
already, a good start, we have 16 still alive.
53:39
And one, two, three, four, five. Six of them are threes, man.
53:46
Let's see. So, we got modern dance Street
53:48
waves. The Fabulous sequel.
53:50
Small was fast. Birdies Big Ed's used farm.
53:55
I don't know, man. I feel like there's enough
53:58
conversation there to trim down those 623 that we don't need any
54:03
of these twos. I was gonna suggest even though
54:07
this this was the one that you were talking about a lot here.
54:10
The smoke the barbecue was that one that you wanted to go back
54:13
to or? Yeah, I honestly think that
54:15
would have been unanimous. I'm fine with it, I liked it.
54:28
Well, I can't, I can't in good conscience.
54:32
Go diving, heard it. Like I know.
54:34
That's that's fine. That's fine but I would say can
54:41
we put it as an honorable mention because I really do want
54:44
people to hear it and it doesn't have to be official in the top
54:47
10. But Here's what I'll do.
54:50
I'll put a star by it. There we go.
54:52
Okay. And I think um, Good move the
54:58
modern dance into it. Yeah, okay.
55:01
We should give that one, a complete.
55:03
I mean, I gave it an a, you know, it was Untitled for me,
55:06
but essentially was same thing out of there to reprise.
55:09
Ya simsim. All right, so these other
55:12
things. Street waves, fabulous sequel.
55:15
Small was fast birdies and Big. Ed's used Farms, any of those
55:19
jump out at you, John? Birdies actually.
55:25
That's like a cool kind of weird song.
55:29
I like the recording technique on that because you were able to
55:32
hear thing in both ears, gonna going back and forth and that
55:35
was kind of why I picked it Freedom's, the Army and out
55:38
here. Like I don't know how much
55:40
gameplay you ever, I really don't care.
55:46
There's nothing I'm gonna fight for, you know, the only thing
55:49
was smoke the barbecue and you guys made a legit reason as to
55:55
why Not to play that. So, um, yeah, I don't care.
56:00
All right, so we'll put birdies through that takes us up to 9,
56:05
right? Yeah, yeah.
56:08
One more left. All right.
56:10
Nobody had the final say. Yeah, no one did.
56:13
So Street waves family sequel. Small was fast.
56:15
Big kids used Farms, anything jumping out at you.
56:17
Randy. I want Big Ed, baby.
56:21
How you feel about that? All right, let's do it.
56:23
Good. Yeah.
56:25
I don't yeah I had it so yeah. Alright so we have 10, look at
56:30
that shit. Super easy.
56:31
Non-alignment packed. Life stinks Navi on the surface.
56:34
Pabu dance party. 30 seconds over Tokyo Final Solution
56:39
modern, dance birdies Big. Ed's used Farms of those 10
56:42
John. Which one do you think?
56:43
Is the one? I'm going to say it's tough
56:52
because like I like what all those songs I'm going to go
56:58
maybe off the beaten path and say non-alignment packed.
57:03
Okay, what do you think Randy? That was the kind of the
57:08
favorite for the top song. Going into it for me but I'm
57:16
like I think on the surface probably deserves a little bit
57:19
of love. I can see Final Solution getting
57:22
it. Like I'm not I'm not married to
57:25
anything right now like I think honestly if we like pick two or
57:30
three that we can kind of debate for the top, we just play them
57:34
because sometimes I'm forgetting how these sound once I hear
57:37
them. I'll be like oh yeah that one
57:39
should be in. There's a yeah so if we want to
57:43
do that way, Now, maybe it's too hard, Freddy, you think?
57:48
I would pick the final solution only because that's the that's
57:51
the one my girlfriend liked. CIA, I'm inclined to agree with
57:56
John not alignment. Pack was my favorite, but I also
58:02
thought you almost didn't pick it, but that's the thing like to
58:04
me that's the best of these ten songs.
58:07
But I also feel like The reason I didn't pick it was because of
58:13
what the band ends up being. So like, like do we go with is
58:22
is not alignment package trickery.
58:24
Like, if you listen to non-aligned it pack and then
58:27
listen to the rest of the band or even the rest of this list,
58:30
are we tricking you I guess? Yes, because let me let me tell
58:33
you something Johnson that happened to me.
58:35
Not alignment pack was either the first or second song I
58:37
heard. I'm like, this is awesome and I
58:40
got your act. So is there another one up
58:46
there? That kind of does the trick?
58:48
Do you think John? Um, I mean, you could throw a
58:52
navvy or even something like Pogo dance party is like shows a
58:58
lot of what they do. I mean if you're yeah if you're
59:02
counting those like pre, like kind of Proto ones like Final
59:07
Solution 30 seconds over Tokyo non-alignment fact, life stinks.
59:10
That was not what they turned into all those, although those
59:14
are like classic undeniable songs, like that's the trade-off
59:17
that you make modern dances in that group as well.
59:21
Like Navi is off of dub housing. Right?
59:25
So that's like the second record and that would they were kind of
59:28
establishing their sound a little bit.
59:30
Yeah, I mean, look probably dance party was one, we got
59:35
through unanimously and I feel like yeah, like I feel like it
59:38
kind of does, does the trick for us?
59:43
Let's, let's play it. Unless at least kind of agree
59:47
unanimously when we hear it. They're like oh yeah.
59:49
Like that's it. It's weird and noisy enough.
59:59
But it's also groovy enough and catch Ian are
1:00:24
okay. Wow, I don't know, I think I
1:00:29
mean again, like if we're going non-traditional, if we're going
1:00:34
traditional, then not alignment packed.
1:00:36
It is because I think none of these are traditional fair
1:00:39
enough. Yeah, but I mean, like about put
1:00:42
Navi Navi a little bit. All right.
1:00:48
Hmm. I'm leaning towards this one
1:00:55
now. That that television Guitar,
1:00:59
Man. We listened on the surface next
1:01:03
sure. Then and hear his voice to hit,
1:01:07
he actually sounds like David Byrne, they're a little bit.
1:01:10
So we're definitely going to listen to on the surface but I'm
1:01:12
with John like I'm leaving here now.
1:01:18
Also Nirvana, which record was bleach.
1:01:27
Eat it. Eat it and yours.
1:01:29
Yeah, aneurysm I love that. If I would have heard more of
1:01:43
this sound think I really would like to spend?
1:01:59
Yeah, like honestly I hear that more.
1:02:01
I'm like this freaking catchy to me.
1:02:05
It's either Navi or on the service.
1:02:07
I agree. Do we hear on the surface with
1:02:10
outside? That was that was on service.
1:02:12
Yeah, I'm sorry. I don't I'm which ever way you
1:02:18
guys want to go. I'm leaning toward Navi.
1:02:23
Whichever way you guys want to go.
1:02:26
Alright, somebody make the executive decision.
1:02:29
On the surface. But all right on the surface, it
1:02:34
is okay. Let me type that into our little
1:02:38
gimmick here. Number one, and there we go.
1:02:43
And let me also hit the rewind button because I'm a
1:02:46
professional. There we go.
1:02:51
On the surface non-alignment Pack, Light stinks Navi, po,
1:02:54
dance party. 30 seconds over Tokyo, final solution of modern
1:02:57

1:03:00
ten songs and this is a great. You're welcome.
1:03:03
This is a great 10. This is a great list.
1:03:06
Yes, fully agree. Yeah, yeah.
1:03:22
For Randy and I to both say this is fucking bullshit.
1:03:29
To have. Yeah.
1:03:32
And to have eight songs, you know, I mean, what will we four
1:03:37
rounds in before had one before, there was a song with would just

the one vote? Yeah, I was, you know, on a four
1:03:46
panel on a four panel show. Ya got to be unheard of him.
1:03:52
