kookycanooky Posted October 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 why did you link to Slowcoaster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Arrgggghhhh. Mis-read it, and had the subject of the next topic in mind when I wrote it. My bad.Slow Nerve Action is from BC, and specializes in "porn funk", which is funk with strong sexual imagery and lyrics.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kookycanooky Posted October 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Hahahaha. by sexual imagery you mean it litteraly sounds like porn music? Interesting.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Well, it's more that they refer to sexual things in their lyrics (e.g., the song "Astroglide", which is about the personal lubricant of the same name) and their stage antics (e.g., "The Accomodator", which I won't detail, but which needs to be seen).Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneMtn Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 It's fair to say, their lyrics are limited to a single "theme". As has been discussed here before, you are best to show up in a bit of a "silly" frame of mind. As long as you're good humoured (and not easily offended) their shows are fun as hell; and Chris's vocals are unreal. (Veritable tongue-twister action at times.)I'm proud to call them Whistler's local band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 ISTR their guitar player being a bit of a freak show to watch, too (as a guitar player; his playing manner on stage is a bit unusual).Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneMtn Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 Hahahahahaha! You're referring to "Josh Gontier"; who will be my guitar-teacher soon after his return from this tour (although I've only informally discussed this with him so far).Maybe I can learn that same "unusual" manner.

StoneMtn Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 It's actually called "Chewin'". The band was once invited to play that one at a Vagina Monologues gathering.I make a point of playing that song for an easily offended friend of mine every time she's in my car. I like to see all the various colours of purple and red her face turns... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
