I have to listen to more of Rage. I don't know their lyrics much. Jello though, yea, I like his sense of humor. I've got to get more Dead Kennedies stuff. I loved his snarky performance of Viva Las Vegas. I heard that in the credits to the film Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and was an instant fan. The bass sound on that song is so great - just distorted all to heck like one of the speakers had blown out. Brilliant!
Yea, I noticed that "k" after I posted the blog. It's a great album. I've heard Superunknown a bunch way back in the '90s and will definitely add it to my '94 list. I actually learned Fell on Black Days on bass when I was in my band. Spoonman is my favorite song off that one.
I'm glad the original release is on Virtual Console. I'll have to check that out. I saw that PSP game with the After Years included. I'm interested in that too. And. . . I got killed on my first quest with Cecil and Kain last week. Oh boy.
The Legacy Collection looks good with special modes and lots of history stuff in it.
I hope you do the podcast. I'll listen to it.
I was happy to find it on Xbox too. That was my main system back then.
I never really listened to them a lot, but I will check them out more now.
That digital look is really getting to me lately, or maybe it's CG graphics, like the Ant-Man trailer or Jurassic World. It just doesn't impress me anymore.
I'd like to play it as it was when it came out. I know what you mean about the music. It's like the game need to load the next area everytime. Also, I've noticed that the music plays from the spinning UMD on the PSP during gameplay. Maybe it has to shut off to let the processor load the next area. If the game installed from the UMD completely, music included, to internal memory, I guess that fade-out problem wouldn't happen.
I lived in that stuff. My friend Mark and I would make jokes about it all the time. I had a darkroom in my parents house all my teenage years and then lived in one during college as well. I even worked in a lab briefly in the early 90s. Speaking of which, I just saw yet another photo store go under. Are there any left at all now?
To each his own. I was lost for hours in the darkroom and always smelled of the fixer chemical. Ah, glorious fixer.
