USCHO Music Thread: We All Have A Crush On Shirley Manson

[Kepler]

I'm sure they're not the only real and spectacular things I am ignorant of. Kep is old too, but he'd at least heard of one of them.

I am working my way through his whole list now, though.

This is how knowledge spreads.

I have high hopes for a group called "Chicano Batman."

They had a period in which they were everybody's Pitchfork darlings and overrated.

I agree with all the rest because I've never heard of any of them. :-)

Most are probably imaginary. Slap's opium haze.

Not that he doesn't believe they exist.

Queensryche

I’m stuck on Q’s. Quarashi going now.

[Kepler]

So, Quatermass are a power trio / prog band from the late 60s, tenuously related to Deep Purple. I put them into Pandora. They didn't do enough of a catalog in only 2 years to have an Artist Only option, so the channel plays other algorithmically-related material.

First three songs to play:

• The Rock (The Who)
• Matte Kudasai (King Crimson)
• Interstellar Overdrive (Pink Floyd)

That's a helluva reference cloud.

[state of hockey]

Queen is obvious for Q, but I might pick Queens of the Stone Age or Quiet Riot instead, today.

[Kepler]

Iggy Pop, Quatermass, and Zebrahead added to Pandora, problem solved.

I'm watching a 2018 Bayreuth production of Lohengrin where the Christian Knights are dressed as the Bloodhound Gang in the Bad Touch video and the women in the bridal chorus look like the dispatchers in UFO.
