Re: Old Assholes

I'm not saying that current politicians are even close to being saints... but comparing them to Nugent? Someone who's admitted to pedophilia, and is clearly racist. Nuh-uh. You can't honestly/rationally make that comparison.

Re: Old Assholes

Oh effin hell. Nugent is an asshole. Try to find a way to say he's not. He called Obama a subhuman mongrel. well obama feels his people are mongrels too m Don't know why I'm bothering but here goes: Nugent was calling Obama subhuman, because he was a mongrel.

Re: English Oceans Discussion Thread

So is this a x4? Can't remember the last thing Rev. Matt wrote that I disagreed with... maybe his fashion suggestions for DBT.

FAOA & GC are on my Top 10 Cooley & Hood lists. Best back-to-back closer on any DBT album.

Re: Old Assholes

It's my opinion that 98% of the anti-Cooley comments on DBT's FB page were from Nugent fans who saw the link from Ultimate Classic Rock and found their way to the DBT FB page and jumped right in. You don't have to "like" a FB page to be able to comment on a post. It was clear that the vas...

Re: Old Assholes

I didn't think that Cooley's comments regarding Deen were political at all. Racism isn't political in my eyes. Voting rights is a whole other thing.

Even if Nugent weren't known for his politics, you could still very easily justify calling him an asshole.

Re: English Oceans Discussion Thread

Props to Cole Younger for trying to understand the heresy The only knock I could fathom someone having, is English Oceans sounding too commercialized, much like some criticized Southeastern. The songs are catchier, there's more "emotional" piano, and it's a generally happy (by DBT standard...

Every time I think my man-crush on Cooley can't get any stronger, he does something like call Ted Nugent an irrelevant old asshole. Swoon. This might make Christgau's Cooley boner permanent. Haha. Asshole is pretty light when referring to someone who has admitted to a penchant for underage girls...

Have to wonder if this is Cooley trying to weed out certain audience members... in a recent interview (can't remember if it was Hood or Cooley) they mentioned trying to get rid of the confederate-flag waving crowd...

Re: Expectations

Very interesting comparisons, Bubba. I hope their arc is as long-lasting as Dylan's; this could be their Planet Waves. Or, if one wants to be pessimistic, they could compare DBT to The Band: The Basement Tapes - GB & PD - Great acoustic beginnings with ragged recording. Music From Big Pink - SRO...

Re: Expectations

The Truckers have "bubbled under", been a "buzz" band or have been considered underground for the vast majority of their entire career so English Oceans may well turn out to be something like R.E.M.'s Green where a lot of people think it's their first album. Which brings me back...

I'm on board with this.

I've always thought Cooley's best guitar work has been on Patterson's slow songs... this album might change that.
