The tracks on <i>Babble On</i> are "Arrows" and "Glass Vase Cello Case." I'm not sure whether or not they're different versions than those that appear on <i>Sew True</i>. A Modest Mouse fan recently uploaded one of the Modest Mouse tracks that appears on <i>Babble On</i> to the Interstate 8 website.

I've been ...Alright, first time commenter here. I've been a Weezer fan since I was 16 (now 28) and I didn't have any friends who shared my love for the band. I love this entry because I can totally relate, except I was a die hard Weezer fan and a girl. While singing along to Pinkerton, I knew what I was singing along to, but couldn't stop loving it. I had a lovely friend who said "Let me have a listen to this band you love so much". Very sweet of her, right? She was appalled!! It was so funny because she couldn't understand why I loved this album so much. How on earth could I relate to those lyrics, right? I don't know, I just don't know. It was catchy and poppy and dark and I loved it. Though I thought myself to be a "die hard", the last record I bought and listened to was the Green album. It was only recently that I gave in and bought the rest, I guess for what was and not what is. I still have to love the band for bringing my awesome dude and I together. They are the spark that started the fire of our love (totally lame, I know, but true non the less). Great post and I love this blog.Emelia G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01580312317202982127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622085733048769348.post-3763082589205037842011-01-19T09:20:32.151-05:002011-01-19T09:20:32.151-05:00You are my god?

I don't know them all, but some of them--Witch Hazel, The Coctails, Honeybunch--were pretty big when I was 18 or so (1994). Aleka's Attic was River Phoenix's band. I haven't ever actually heard them, but that name definitely got thrown around a lot for a few years. Fudge are from my hometown of Richmond VA, so I saw them multiple times and even knew a couple of the guys in that band. And Small Factory were seriously HUGE back then. I thought their reputation would have survived, for sure.<br /><br />But regardless, it's cool that you've heard this stuff now, and if you do track down the other works of these bands, you've got some great listening ahead of you. I recommend starting with Small Factory's "I Do Not Love You" LP and Fudge's "The Ferocious Rhythm Of Precise Laziness," but you really can't go wrong.Andrew TSKShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04102428606697946367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622085733048769348.post-34755348258013628952011-01-04T12:58:43.133-05:002011-01-04T12:58:43.133-05:00AW THIS IS REALLY NICE OF YOU!

It wasn't until she started releasing her <i>Body Talk</i> EPs that I gave her new stuff some serious consideration. There are definitely some tracks on <i>Body Talk</i> that don't do much for me, but I really love "Hang with Me," "Call Your Girlfriend," and "Dancing on My Own."<br /><br />@Erica I was wondering if anyone would know that I was talking about Utena! I've been (very, very slowly) rewatching it and every single time they play that particul dueling song I think of Grass Widow.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16033963441572502569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622085733048769348.post-70567628055378067532010-12-10T11:52:30.907-05:002010-12-10T11:52:30.907-05:00There are a lot of things I like about this post--...There are a lot of things I like about this post--all of it, in fact!--but I love the Utena reference in the Grass Widow section.

It is very much appreciated.<br /><br />Please feel free to post the entirety of the album. I'm not sure how many listeners are out there or interested in checking it out, but I do know that there are really no plans to release it outside of handing it out to friends, family, and various random people who have stumbled upon the previous albums and want to hear more. Thats why I am so happy you reviewed it and seemed to enjoy it for the highly-flawed, somewhat embarrassing ode to dead wrestlers and the New World Order it is. <br /><br />So, thanks again Side Ponytail - the first and probably only website that will ever hear lexlugersexmagik.<br /><br />SFW,<br />Double Murder SuicideDouble Murder Josh https://www.blogger.com/profile/00115081498015787216noreply@blogger.com
