I was going to see him at desert daze, I hope this isn't true ugh
>>66457739
That seems a fairly solid source. I don't think Henry would post that if he didn't know for certain.
This is really sad. 2016's a rough year.

I cannot think any of the mods being that much into music as their own creative or cultural hobby except for listening to Aphex Twin or otaku OSTs while chatting on IRC but I doubt I'm on the right time line anymore.
I think everyone should hear the infamous 23 Minutes Over Brussels recording at least once.

then how do you know about the meme
>>66459121
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
>>66459113
in the mainstream? I'm sure actual musicians who copy them know
>>66459021
Just a knee-jerk hipster contrarian reaction. There were plenty of Bowie threads after his death and whatnot but considering that it was David Bowie and everyone knew about him that would be typical. I just fear what people are going to do about Vega's death though Suicide is a bit of a meme "babby's second art-band" and Frankie Teardrop shitposting is usually brought up. Mountains out of mole hills.

flea's got pretty patrician taste t b h
>>66459544
Flea probably does care. He was a part of the New York punk scene at the same time as Suicide after all, when he was playing in Fear.
How is this not stickied i thought suicide's S/T was /mu/core
>>66459528
i was gonna say this, but he said dark and misanthropic so idk..

probably because it is great
>>66459588
you obviously don't understand how influential it was.

HEY GIRL
Still can't understand why a bunch of Elvis Costello fans would riot at a Suicide show
>>66459647
They formed in 1970, and they called their concerts "punk music mass."
It amazes me to think they were making this sort of racket at that time.
>>66459653
it's not gonna happen senpai
So many suave frontmen dying this year. Who's next???
>>66459653
mods are plebs obviously
>>66459588
for a album that thrives on minimalist instrumentls, it sure sounds very unique and memorable
also first time i listened to frankie teardrop i got spooked so damn hard
>>66459689
Iggy
>>66459693
This
>oh frankie frankie oh frankie frankie
>>66459713
;_; Most likely.
>>66459717
I'm really curious to hear what their early performances were like.
>>66459746
my guess is that they probably weren't much different from their first record, considering how minimal and simplistic it is. would have been awesome to see them back then though. i've heard stories about audience members spitting on them, and alan just wiping the spit into his mouth
>>66459795
What a badass.
>>66459434
You're supposed to find out for yourself. That's how you find legit great shit other people don't know that much about. You develop your own taste.

Lots of people like Suicide. Bruce Springsteen is a vocal fan and has covered them
>>66460068
Same actually, I almost felt like I jinxed it or something.
also, this thread should really get a sticky, Alan was super important.
Did anyone else get, like, celebratory? With Bowie and Prince I felt sad and confused and sorta pissed and lost, this time I started whooping it up, yelling "he is GONE children he is GONE" to my empty room, basically laughing. You think he would have wanted that? I'm not happy he's dead, but it just seems so ridiculous this time. I couldn't sleep so I checked twitter and the first fucking thing I see is Alan Vega trending, and I just knew there'd be no way he'd be trending if he wasn't rip AND HE IS FUHUHUCKKK

Can any of you listen to Frankie Teardrop in the dark yet? I can't. I'm man enough to admit that shit still fucks my shit up, even when I listen to it in broad daylight.

>>66460237
best song
this is so surreal, i never even considered him dying someday
there's no fucking way he was 78, why would he suddenly start playing music at age 32
>>66460989
Not til the next reissue rolls around
>>66461121
Because he was pursuing an art career long before music?
>>66461121
From Wikipedia:
>Seeing The Stooges perform at the New York State Pavilion in August 1969 was an epiphany for Vega. In 1970, he met and befriended Martin Reverby. Together, the two began experimenting with music and formed the band Suicide along with guitarist Paul Liebgott. The group played twice at MUSEUM before moving on to the OK Harris Gallery. Calling himself "Nasty Cut", he used the terms "Punk Music" and "Punk Music Mass" in flyers to describe their music, which he adopted from an article by Lester Bangs. In 1971 the group dropped Paul Liebgott and added Mari Reverby on drums, though she didn't play in their live performances. With Bermowitz finally settling on Alan Suicide as a working name, they began to play music venues. Suicide went on to perform at the Mercer Arts Center, Max's Kansas City, CBGB and ultimately, achieve international recognition.
>>66461138
People here don't know anything substantial about the cool bands they are supposed to listen to. Anything more would be dismissed as 'autism'
RIP Alan
>>66459679
I never heard this before - apparently it's true:
https://www.theguardian.com/music/2008/aug/01/popandrock.suicide
>>66461167
Something about a 30 year old watching Iggy Pop and thinking "I wanna be like him!" just doesn't seem right to me
>>66461246
It's the 23 Minutes Over Brussels recording (Bonus disc in one of the S/T reissues) that captures that event. Any Suicide fan would know this.
There's a recording (I think it's a song called "Dance") on one of their live albums with the audience chanting "FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU" on it too.
>>66461280
When you're in your 30s you will understand

lol what songs did bruce cover
>>66461380
Almost his age when he started Suicide. Sorry for outing a portion of my identity on an anonymous imageboard. The substance of the post should be always be a bit more important than the identity of the poster at most times.
>>66461472
Dream Baby Dream.
Also, State Trooper off Nebraska is directly influenced by Frankie Teardrop according to bruce himself
>>66461342
It depends upon what the meaning of the word "fan" is.
Thanks for pointing out where I can hear it, at least.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rXJCl876Lk
>>66461490
Can you give me a glimpse of his/your mindset then?
>>66461527
I would usually like to attribute the word "fan" with a hint of autism but I'm sure that would be "superfan".
Oh, and off-topic and slightly meta. Before Facebook had the "Like" button it was a "Become a fan" button. I would also like to point out that Facebook ripped off the Canv.as sticker system for their current system of reactions :^)
>>66458123
not underrated, just not very funny
I feel like shit knowing I will never see Suicide live.
RIP Alan Vega
>>66461625
I have a few things I'm a superfan for too, but you can't have an obsession about everything.
it was surreal seeing those new reactions reacting to a Turkish video posted to Facebook, of people whose arms or heads had been reduced to burger from helicopter fire, and what was supposed to capture the revulsion to the sickening sight were....THESE (by the hundreds)
>>66461589
Take it with a grain of salt because there is clearly some forms of projection.
I'd like assume that if you were more leaning on the artistic side there would be some sort of narcissism. I've met plenty of musicians (I guess I could consider myself one but I never went up on stage) and many always have this self-satisfaction ("smug" would be too harsh of a word) of success in a manner like an award-winning athlete. It takes a lot of time and sacrifice to achieve your personal endeavors. Seeing The Stooges and Iggy Pop on stage, (shot in the dark) possibly cutting himself on-stage and bleeding for the audience, must've inspired him. Your art critics aren't going to see you bleed when you present a piece and your sports fans aren't going to see you run that extra mile everyday in pain to be the best.
I'm not familiar with his actual art pieces (I believe he was a sculptor) but maybe he just got by and got enough to eat and maybe wanted more? When you perform on stage you have the audience paying attention to you than you would having the audience looking at your art.
I've had plenty of epiphanies over the past decade but nothings ever come out of it. Maybe it's not an age thing but an unsatisfied ego. But many shows I've been to makes me inspired to make something of myself. But then you wake up and the morning comes.
I forgot how terrifying his screaming is in Frankie Teardrop
It's a animals violent yelp, it feels so intense
does anyone else hear similarities between "Frankie Teardrop" and Dylan's "The Ballad of Hollis Brown"? it's set in an urban environment, and it's a much more visceral emotional experience, but thematically they're similar
>Mods please sticky this

That's what I'm trying to figure out retard
Was fortunate enough to see the Gories do their rendition of Ghostrider a few days ago, but all I could take away from their performance was how much more excited I was to see Suicide's original in October. RIP
Also some Alan Vega thread, doesn't matter which one, should be fucking sticked goddammit.

>>66463107 this forever
>>66462937
all me
>>66461882
I can connect with this minus the age part, thanks dude. I hope you get what you're looking for man
Dammit, I was just starting to really get into him recently and he just passes away out of nowhere, same thing happened to me with Bowie. It's a shame his death won't receive the same amount of attention as that of Prince or Bowie. Wish I could have seen him live.
RIP Alan

it's not the mods' fault. it's the public's fault, and the population of /mu/'s fault. of course kanye is going to get a sticky every time he takes a shit. /mu/ literally goes into a frenzy every time he does. it's /mu/'s fault for being obsessed with plebeian bullshit, but not caring about true artists like vega. this thread has been up since last night and it still hasn't even hit bump limit. if kanye posted a some stupid tweet that resonated with /mu/, that thread would fill up within an hour

He has a machine do it. I worked at a hotel they stayed in for the King of Limbs tour and they had some assistants wheel some huge contraction into the building. Thom was staying in a suite on a high up floor, so they needed to use an elevator for it. The manager had me escort them onto a special staff elevator to transport bigger objects up the hotel. So, they wheel this big metal machine onto the elevator, and I push the bottom for the floor. I noticed the word 'Rachel' carved unto a plate attached to it and asks one of the guys what this thing is.
'Ehhh, Mr. Yorke been having some problem with the ole in-n-out, ya know? Home life ain't the best now.'
Somewhat terrified, I helped them wheel it out of the elevator shaft to the room. One of the guys tripped and the contraption ran into a wall and turned on. Loud whirring sounds and and Aphex Twin song started to fill the hallway. The machine shook and an arm shot out with what I can only describe as the most scary looking synthetic vagina I have ever seen.
One of the guys yells, 'Oi, fuck! It's loose! Get Thom on the telly!' The machines shaking around and the arm is smashing the walls. Soon one of the guys sets his phone on loudspeaker, and sure enough, I hear Thom bark something in a foreign language. The machine quiets down and retracts back to its original form. The assistants apologized and wheeled it into Thom's suite.
Later that night I heard the machine again along with the sound of a man wailing in agony. Thom Yorke and the Radioheads will not be staying in this hotel again, that's for sure.

Rest in peace, Alan Vega. In a just world Suicide's second album would've been a massive hit.

Look goddamnit, you read /mu/ from back to front. Back pages occasionally have some obscure out there shit or give you a glimpse into the future of music right before the thread gets put down. The middle section is the meal, all the good discussion threads (suicide included) are here bc these artists aren't praised as highly or even known about by the majority so obviously the first couple pages are the mucore threads, current shit, kpop and gear threads. These pages are like the desert eat too much you get sick, sometimes you skip it entirely or sometimes it's all you want. think about why you and the few other people that post "who?" clicked this thread. Hint? It's bc this thread keeps bumping to the front from all the anons who enjoy suicide. This leads into the next realization.
If you stay here long enough you realize /mu/ is a side bitch board and that's cool. We tend to stay on topic and self regulate so the mod can check the boards that actually need a baby sitter. However, if a few threads start popping up and continue to get filled with ALLCAPS and STICKY posts the mod should be able to take a few minutes out to see who it is and what they have contributed to music. Hell a janitor could pm the mod about it. The point is it's a breakdown that translates to MODS FAULT bc they have the sticky power.
Regardless, Alan Vega deserves a fucking sticky. Talk all the shit you want at me and say I'm the fucking pleb and wrong etc etc but one day it will click and you will realize that goddamn anon in that Alan Vega was right.
