Davey Boy 2.0 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 There's an implied comparision IMO, and will lead to the opinion these guys are trying to expres, which is in fact just that an opinion, that has been extrapolated to say the roots is the truth and the youth is bunk, which I am reputing.DeepsA- that doesn't make senseB- if it did you'd be wrong anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcO Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 good Lord, all I said was that listening with your feet might not be a good way to set yourself a high standard for music but hey that's just me. I said nothing about any band in particular. I said dick-all about any "old vs young" argument. And I don't know how Brian Hamilton got mentioned in this, he hasn't made a single post so far here. Keep on doing what you're all doing. Hopefully that pot of artistic gold is right around the corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but I just don't see it. I have noticed though, this is a recurring topic for you, as this isn't the first time you've posed that question in some form or another.People like what they like.

Deeps Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 On comparing the Fatties to SlowCo...unnecessarily admittedly.....There's an implied comparision in some of the other members posts IMO and an explanation I hope would expose that that saying that SlowCo is not good is completely derived from previous likes when watching the earlier generation of the Jambands (NERO, BnB, Fatties).These likes seem to have been extrapolated to say the roots is the truth and the youth is bunk, which I am reputing, because I'm tired of some of the elements that are easily spottted in the afformentioned bands and the people who tell me how ground breaking it is.Mixing jazz and ska while giving a minimalist lyric is ground breaking.....singing me a song about a fucking train is old and in the way when I bring it into where I'm at right now.I like both under certain circumstances and can discern between the 2, but try not write a band off because I wasn't in the mood for it.Deeps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay sanislo Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 (edited) and anyway as far as i can tell bands get criticised if they aren't good. Whether they're old or young does not matter at all, that's waaay beside the pointI agree 100%, your taking this the wrong way.

I do tend to bring this up, it's a point of interest to me and not completely off the mark sometimes.Calling Steven from SlowCo a wanker and likeing NERO, BnB and The Fatties unabashedly is a conflict of interest and not seeing that Steven is ahead of the game in terms of the quality and approach to the instrument in some realms is well IMO ... blind.

Its that fucking simple. At least I aint deaf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmoothedShredder Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 If you want to get to the root of the song writing, check out Steve MacDougals' solo album: Spanish Bay; Slick changes, great cadence, just a fine wordsmith. Oh yeah, a little bit of Bille Holiday type jazz. I can't find anything about this album online... I guess I'll just keep it my little secret.

paisley Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 all I know is have really enjoyed many a Slowcoaster show, and this last was my favorite yet by far... was quite blown away by the Steve's guitar work and vocals but actually mostly blown away by how far this band has come in the few years I've been checkin them out... simply a great band the controversy appears to be elevating them to Bus/Wassabi/Slip loved/hated by all status Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I see is alot of people like/love SloCo and a few don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmoothedShredder Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Yeah, don't get me wrong, I don't mind if an individual doesn't like a band. It's a question of flavour... it's when the debate becomes all obtuse like it has here, and nobody knows what the fuck anyone else is talking about (Deeps, you lost me too).
