hmm, two headline posts in a week with the word fuck in it. anyway, back in 95, i envisioned the brian jonestown massacre taking over the world, or if not the world then maybe my particular zip code, then area code and then maybe the world. i tried my damnedest to turn as many people onto the brilliance of thank god for mental illness as i could and the percentage of takers to dissenters was pretty much split down the middle. i was never very good at selling shit, but my love for the record grew and grew until, i almost ended up hating it and was unlistenable. anyone ever have that happen? i dont think i listened to it again for a few years. well, its been a while since those love filled days, and mr newcombe and co have released a number of interesting records since and are releasing their who killed sgt pepper? on 2.23. im still up in the air about the whole affair, but i will say its grown on me cause my first time around i hated it or was confused to say the least. btw, spaceman 3′s will carruthers plays bass on the record.
