Remind you of anything?
Just the fist 1 minute 15. SURELY Jane's should take some credit for the inspiration?

Re: Remind you of anything?
This "everyone with a drum!!" thing is getting played out.
There was a opening band I saw recently called Royal Teeth. (something like that). It seemed like every song had a section for this... but the novelty of it wore off after two songs.
I've noticed a lot of bands doing it.

It does, reminds me of a toilet that wouldn't flush.

Re: Remind you of anything?
Price i Pay is a much shittier song than I remember it being. The first minute and a half are interesting musically. Even Perry's vocals are ok. But the lyrics and generic rawk crap ruin the song after that.
Re: Remind you of anything?
This also always reminds me of a Jane's song
Re: Remind you of anything?
Good call! They should cover it!

If this doesn't sound like 'pets' to you, you're deaf.

i just realized today that wave of mutilation has the same chords as sittin on the dock of the bay

Sounds more like Bali Eyes.jptm wrote:If this doesn't sound like 'pets' to you, you're deaf.
Or, like 50 other songs depending on what you focus on.
Re: Remind you of anything?
I agree. That aweful bassline spits in the face of the foundation of all classic Jane's songs. It almost sounds like a retard trying to the main riff in Walk by Pantera on bass.hokahey wrote:Price i Pay is a much shittier song than I remember it being.

I have to disagree. I totally hear Pets.Adurentibus Spina wrote:Sounds more like Bali Eyes.jptm wrote:If this doesn't sound like 'pets' to you, you're deaf.

Re: Remind you of anything?
Thanks, Hoka
Also, lately I re-discovered (on my hard drive) a band someone found during the xiola daze that sounded like Jane's-- Proximity Butterfly. Search for 'em on youtube & you'll remember they're a band living in China made up of all kinds of people...
Obviously influenced by Jane's, they've actually matured into a more complex band (the guitars went towards The Mars Volta IMO...):
but still have that old Jane's vibe, too... you think?

Re: Remind you of anything?
Yeah, it shares a number of similarities with Pets, though I don't know if that's merely coincidental (probably not). By the way, that's a nice little psych-pop album. Nothing too adventurous (it's pretty retro), but a nice sound/vibe, and some very nice melodies and whatnot.hokahey wrote:I have to disagree.

Since this is a "Remind you of anything" thread:
"O, when she's angry, she is keen and shrewd! She was a vixen when she went to school; And though she be but little, she is fierce.” William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream
Fucking Perry can't come up with lyrics so he steals from Shakespeare

Re: Remind you of anything?
That's actually pretty good. Clever on Perry's part. Pretty sure Shakespeare's been in the public domain for ... a long time.Romeo wrote:Since this is a "Remind you of anything" thread:

The song still sucks though.

Re: Remind you of anything?
Just Because, Had a Dad, Standing in the Shower, Idiots Rule, Been Caught Stealing, True Nature, The Riches, Superhero, Suffer Some and Twisted Tales have ALL essentially the same drum pattern. In different tempos, intensities and permutations, they all do the same accents that lead to the same "overall feel" of the drum line.trevor ayer wrote:just because is been caught stealing with more guitars .. so janes stole from themselves that time .. same with everybodys friend and classic girl

Yes, it might be public domain but shows his lack of originality.Adurentibus Spina wrote:That's actually pretty good. Clever on Perry's part. Pretty sure Shakespeare's been in the public domain for ... a long time.Romeo wrote:Since this is a "Remind you of anything" thread:

Funny how it came about, my friend had the quote in her email signature and at first glance I'm thinking "why is she quoting a shitty Jane's song, she's not even a Jane's fan"....then I saw "William Shakespeare"
Re: Remind you of anything?
Man, I'm sorry, I really don't think an allusion to Shakespeare is a good example of Perry's lack of originality.
Brave New World contains a huge number of direct quotations from Shakes:

References JUST to Hamlet in Literature:
The ninth chapter of James Joyce's Ulysses, commonly referred to as Scylla and Charybdis, is almost entirely devoted to a rambling discourse by Stephen Daedalus on Shakespeare, centering around the character Hamlet. As a character predicts more or less accurately in the very first chapter, "[Daedalus] proves by algebra that Hamlet's grandson is Shakespeare's grandfather and that he himself is the ghost of his own father."
Gertrude and Claudius, a John Updike novel, serves as a prequel to the events of the play. It follows Gertrude from her wedding to King Hamlet, through an affair with Claudius, and its murderous results, up until the very beginning of the play.
Dead Fathers Club, a novel by Matt Haig, uses intertextuality to retell the story of Hamlet from the point of view of an 11-year-old boy in modern England.
Anton Chekhov wrote a feuilleton titled I am a Moscow Hamlet (1891), the mutterings of a gossip-mongering actor who contemplates suicide out of sheer boredom.
Jasper Fforde's novel Something Rotten includes Hamlet - transplanted from the BookWorld into reality - as a major character. This version of Hamlet frets about how audiences perceive him, complains about the performances of actors who have portrayed him, and at one point resolves to go back and change the play by killing Claudius in the beginning and marrying Ophelia.
In Kurt Vonnegut's "God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater" the protagonist, Eliot Rosewater, writes a letter to his wife while pretending to be Hamlet.
David Bergantino's novel "Hamlet II: Ophelia's Revenge", set in modern Denmark, portrays Ophelia rising from the dead to get revenge on Hamlet.
Nick O'Donohoe's 1989 science fiction novel Too Too Solid Flesh portrays a troupe of android actors designed specifically to perform "Hamlet"; when the androids' designer is murdered, the Hamlet android decides to investigate.
In Kyle Baker's 1996 graphic novel The Cowboy Wally Show, Cowboy Wally's masterpiece is the film "Cowboy Wally's HAMLET", a modernized version produced in secret while Wally was in prison. He had planned to film Hamlet professionally, but was jailed for an unspecified offense, before he could cast actors, and so used his cell-mates for the cast. The film failed, like many of Cowboy Wally's efforts, due to his ineptness, but he attributed the failure to the film being "ahead of its time".
David Foster Wallace's novel Infinite Jest takes its name from Hamlet's speech about Yorick, and features a main character struggling with his uncle's influence following the suspicious death of his father.
The plot of David Wroblewski's novel The Story of Edgar Sawtelle closely follows the story line of Hamlet, and several of the novel's main characters have names similar to their corresponding characters in the play.
John Marsden's novel 'Hamlet' is a reinterpretation of the original for young adults. It is set in Denmark and the characters keep their names, their personalities and their functions in the story.
In Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, Marley death as it said with a Hamlet part, There is no doubt that Marley was dead. This must be distinctly understood, or nothing wonderful can come of the story I am going to relate. If we were not perfectly convinced that Hamlet's Father died before the play began, there would be nothing more remarkable in his taking a stroll at night, in an easterly wind, upon his own ramparts, than there would be in any other middle-aged gentleman rashly turning out after dark in a breezy spot -- say Saint Paul's Churchyard for instance -- literally to astonish his son's weak mind.
Ngaio Marsh's detective Roderick Alleyn in all her novels uses quotes, misquotes and allusions to Hamlet as a characteristic conversational idiosyncrasy.
The line, "Good night, ladies, good night, sweet ladies, good night, good night," ends the second part of T. S. Eliot's "The Waste Land".
T.S. Eliot's poem, "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock", includes the line, "No! I am not Prince Hamlet, nor was I meant to be".
The poem The Night Before Christmas includes the line "Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse." This is similar to Act 1 Scene 1's "Not a mouse stirring."
