Nu Metal is popular with the kids which is interesting

Still. My top 5 favorite bands of all time. Heavily influencing what I consider to be music. And my drummer career of 24 years. Next to Jon Theodore of Mars volta. Danny Carey from tool and Carter Beauford of Dave matthews band. Goddamn Abe is so solid

The exploited are not crust punk 😂 crust punks and the the exploited would hate that 😂😂

Back when Mtv. Was. MUSIC. Not whatever you can call it's current programming. I'm not sure which is worse. Hosting a show of ignorant, allegedly unscripted videos. Called stupidishness. Or being a person that is capable of considering that, as entertainment. Hour, after hour, after hour. The network should be re- titled. In my opinion. Because they no longer play music television videos. Just mindless, pointless, meaningless, trash.

Melotron is not a synth.

This was really interesting, thanks for putting this together 👍🙂

I have a feeling that Cabaret Voltaire went 'mainstream' (read: disco) by following New Order's lead.

Love your videos Sir. Point of interest re New Order Blue Monday. When we were making Dead or Alives' "You Spin Me Round" Blue Monday was the reference track!! It is possible to overlay Pete's vocal of that track onto the bass line of Blue Monday. Pop Music can be so incestuous it's remarkable. I was 17 and an assistant engineer at Marquee Studios in Soho, where Dead or Alive recorded the album Youthquake. Blue Monday has had such an influence on the dance scene. Thanks for the wonderful UA-cam videos you make. Cheers

First and worst?

Great video - My memory obviously failed me as I thought Sigue Sigue Sputnik was the band doing that stunt.

The English are a funny bunch....and just like Nashville, they have to invent phrases for different rock jams, like punk, power chord, new wave, classic, heavy metal, and on & on to get their kids to buy their ROCK music....which will never die

"Hopelessness of Cleveland"...."everything from Cleveland was doomed"...that`s funny when they came to the bar I worked at they only were pissed off at the Stuck-up NY music execs, who only wanted east coast bands...AND then this moron calls the `75 Television as what started punk.... blank off TT

I was listening to Superstition recently and I have to say, there are some pretty questionable lyrics, at least by the standards of today, and even by the standards of what would be considered acceptable even then. I was kinda sad to hear some pretty racist lines in Hong Kong Garden and Arabian Knights.

As a 50yr old fan...PetShop (as I used to called them) are the masters of POP music. I'm always thinking why there arent new covers of their songs. Their sound is eternal ! Since the first time I listened to WestEndGirls , was hooked on their sound!

It's taken me a long time to learn to enjoy Punk. Back in the day, I hated the Kingsmen, was scared of The Sonics...and segued over to punk jazz. Roland Kirk...Sun Ra...then I got into New York No Wave and backpedaled to Punk.

Why did you leave out Marilyn Manson?? Remake?

Thank Gawd Bitish Pop was taking over.....

I hope most of the script up to the 12 minute mark is old, because this is giving me a headache with all the induced eye rolls.

Courtney Love is the most Rock & Roll human being in the world. She has a fascinating life.

Maybe Miracles is my favourite but I love all sorts of PSB songs - Don't Know What You Want But I Can't Give It Anymore, I'm With Stupid (particularly love the 12" PSB remix), all of Disco 3 (which is still awesome) and many, many more. Even the PSB B-sides were brilliant, something neglected very much by contemporary acts nowadays, if they even have one.

I don't remember any of this being around when I was growing up. It's wild to know that it was out so far ahead of it's time. Crazy how that happens. Genius is always appreciated too late.

Mudhoney. . .awful

well it's either LCD Soundsystem with Christmas Will Break Your Heart or Goodies, Father Christmas Do Not Touch Me

Incredible as always

Nookie is such a banger. Break stuff though? Not so much, genuinely makes me cringe.

You cannot now see AR Kane as other than a Tavistock project. Listen to how they were represented at 14 minutes. Sorry, origins stories are important & when they’re implausible beyond belief, look behind the story.

Loved your commentary...Now I quite understand why I a young black woman who grew up in the freaking Baltimore Gilmor Projects fell in love with the Pet Shop Boys West End Girls and decades later...I still do.

The killer 2023 has recontextualised the Smiths from emasculated globohomo to something better..

zero mention to title fight afterwards damn … fourth gen still the best tho

Love Comes Quickly is Heaven

You could tell you don’t like nu metal from this video

Love comes quickly... That was when i became interested

😘

WHERE THA FUNK WAS WEIRD BITSCH WANK AN ALL AT THAT MOMENT???

it's a cliche, I know, I do not know how I came across TrashTheory. But what a fantastic Rabbit Hole, The 80's and 90's were extraordinary, more dynamic than the 60's, more original than anything since. I knew a few people in the 'Biz' living in Hampstead, drinking at the 'Dome' bar and other places,Camden Palace, was short walk. Very well put together bringing lots of good memories, sadly, still living in Hampstead which is now as dead as a cemetery, I wish young kids had places they could go and meet and make music and bring life back to the cold cadaver. Keep up the good work.🤩

Plz plz plz look at Desert Rock- Kyuss and Queens of the Stone Age

Mentions do not equal endorsements of the respective artist's actions.... A bit sad that this apparently has to be stated :/

And in referencing the heroin themed lyrics, she says, "Brown may be sweeter, she will supply...."....possibly suggesting Courtney supplied Kurt with an overdose?

Re: Professional Widow, the "Starf**ker" part actually proceeds the whole "Mother Mary, China white" part, which comes at the end/climax of the song...

Radiohead or Pet Shop Boys are "British to the bone" groups that sold much, much, much more than Oasis and have much bigger careers. For well crafted lyrics Pulp is very competitive. Oasis lived on a lot of borrowed music and style from other artists, always taking the minimum risk path and moving the bare minimum. Blur were better musics, had much better dancing moves, and a cooler presence on scene.

Having the intelligence to intelligently sample from a variety of things one finds inspiring is not the same thing as plagiarism.

I had to go to Botswana, land-locked, semi-arid, 1 person-per-square-mile density back in '80 to fall in love with XTC. If it was too weird for normal people and too normal for weird people I guess that describes us at that time and place.

No mention of Barkmarket. Swing and a miss.

I do think you missed out the brilliant cross over nonsense of Senser, and Asian dub foundation. UK punk!!

A waiting room that never stops!!

Who the heck does this chick think she is? I’m glad they had success, but come on man. Her mind is warped.

Oh, I was depressed, oh, I was also wanted speed OK now I understand.

Billy Corgans birthstone in aquamrine?

I never liked them. Motorcycle Emptiness was a good tune though.

Blood and sand, if you want anything done do it yourself on ya Lil
