That Guy from Bush

Speaking of the worst lyricists in rock history, I was listening to the radio the other day and the song "Machine Head" came on by that guy. You know, with the hair? "Got a machine head, better than the rest, dum dee dum, deet deet dum?" Gavin, uh, Assdale? Foxtail? He wrote Razorblade Suitcase and that other piece of shit? Hold on a sec, I'm gonna Google him...

Gavin Stefani? Damn, I was way off.

RATING: Should've been aborted%

The guy in the photo is Chris Cornell. Also terrible, but it's not Gavin Stefandale.

@ The Trick
Hey, my band played a show with you at Bugaboo Creek about 5 years ago. You sounded kind of like Depeche Mode. I think that was the one where they cut the power while Matt Johson was playing, if memory serves me correctly.

Small world.

John said...

Not bad, NBNL. I've got a bitch of a cold and a tonne of reading to do, plus I just got a job as a copy editor for this girl's dissertation and I have no idea what to charge. But I'm rocking in the free world. That keg getting heavy at all?

My favorite part was when they all started whistling.

laurie said...

Technically speaking, aren't all people "from bush." HA, get it...bush!

Walter Benjamin and the Mechanical Reproductions (the band) said...

slow news day i guess

Anonymous said...

I'd do either of them. Hell, I'd do both of them.

Anonymous said...

I wouldn't! Eww

Viking Andrew said...

I am by no means insinuating anything about anyone on this blod.

laurie said...

That link traumatized me. But what's a blod?

laurie said...

I would consider doing Chris Cornell, but I would never touch Gwen Stefani's sloppy seconds. I hate that talentless woman and her hideous clothing line. (Bitch can put as many sequins as she wants on a wife beater, but it's still a fucking wife beater.)

Chris said...

That's Chris Cornell? He was so much fucking cooler in Soundgarden.

Viking Andrew said...

A blod is a blog on St. Patty's Day.

laurie said...

Good save

Walter Benjamin and the Mechanical Reproductions (the band) said...

we should do a fark headline challenge on that news story ill start:

Police to man: urine trouble now!

Viking Andrew said...

Chuck E Cheese tells local man Urine luck!

Walter Benjamin and the Mechanical Reproductions (the band) said...

Micturate to see you go but I love to drink your pee!

Walter Benjamin and the Mechanical Reproductions (the band) said...

had to look that one up on dictionary dot com

Sarah said...

Uh... Chris Cornell is AWESOME.

LoCo said...

Andrew! Eew. You're putting me off my Guinness.

Who's Chris Cornell? I wish we had more black people on this site.

Walter Benjamin and the Mechanical Reproductions (the band) said...

more black peple mean any black peeple yes

The Trick said...

@ John
I guess I missed a transition somewhere. Whatever. I approve either way.

And yes! I remember that show. What a shitstorm that was. I actually didn't even play that night. The owner started freaking out at everyone, so I packed up and left.

Walter Benjamin and the Mechanical Reproductions (the band) said...

hey the trick you should add your own fark headline to to list it real fun you just come up with a word meaning pee and put it in a sentence like this:

To pee or not to pee asks Ohio man

that one sucked but you get the point

laurie said...

Chris Cornell's head looks kind of smashed in that photo. He was definitely a vaginal birth.

LoCo said...

Laurie thanks for complementing my skull shape earlier. It meant a lot to me.

Chris said...

Can you believe that douche used to be in Soundgarden?

John said...

I thought Audioslave's first album was light years better than Soundgarden's last one. Everything else they did was horrible, though.

Chris said...

I was about to say how douchey Audioslave sounds, except it's no better than Soundgarden.

John said...

Superunknown was a great album. Down on the Upside was a piece of shit, but both bands are way better than Bush, or as we call them in Canada due to copyright laws, Bush X
