    Very often I hear people claiming that Buzz is an asshole, but I think it's just that people aren't used to hearing famous people that are this blunt and honest. He doesn't take himself seriously at all and It's really refreshing. We need more people like him in my opinion... Great interview

      I think some people mistake Buzz's anger over losing his friend to heroin, as some kind of jealousy. Buzz is refreshingly honest, with a sense of humor, I could listen to him shoot the shit all dy!

    Once I got to the portion of the interview that involved Buzzo's musings on KISS, I just found myself staring at the computer with a big smile on my face. Never laughing out loud, just staring at the computer with a big grin, never wanting this interview to end. Buzzo needs to run for president.

    I love how Buzz plays down his music. Like saying how they played slow because they were drunk! There is actually so much thought in those songs but he's not arrogant about it. I love the guy. So talented but he's never taken himself seriously. Go on buzz,you are a legend.

    I had the pleasure of interviewing Buzz, Dale and their at-the-time bassist Mark D in 1997, Dale and Buzz are both absolutely hilarious, Dale being dead-pan and sarcastic and Buzz happy and taking the piss out of everything (in a lovely and pleasant way).

  • @MENFUSSMIKE

    I once saw Buzz put his guitar down in front of his Amp, walk off the stage into the parking lot, get in a compact car and drive off while his band was still playing.

    • @borizzle1

      Pretty sure that's what happened on the tour I went and saw them. In fact, everyone left, except for Jared from Big Business still on stage fucking around with his iPhone somehow making weird drone noises on the amp for about 10 minutes. Then he left too.

    "Grunge" was not meant to be a genre or category of music. It was simply a word used in a biography press release to describe the sound of Mudhoney's debut 1988 ep "SuperFuzz BigMuff" (Johnathan Poneman of Sub Pop Records 1993)

    Buzz is fascinating, and a testament to how people’s perceptions of us often defy logic. He’s just so immediately likable, despite the bluntness and seeming negativity. If you were to read a transcript of things he says in interviews, you might be liable to think, “This guy’s kind of a dick.” But when you see the interview, he’s just so damn charming despite it all

      @Josh Weaver Sorry but *too not to (i'm sorry for that, but it's hard to take the rest of what people say seriously when they don't seem to know basic words like that, it makes people question their intelligence and if they should even bother to pay attention to the rest of what they say. I'm sorry to be like that!!)
      Anyway, who's "most"? Like you talked everyone ever and that's what everyone thinks? Where's your information from on this popular opinion? no offense. Also, i'm just saying where he comes from is pretty influential, so it seems like people dissing it might not know that he was in those bands, and not just some dipshit reporter they got to do this for no other reason than his hair and tooth

      He made some of the greatest punk/post hardcore records on Dischord Records, produced by Ian MacKaye and had people like Bikini Kill on backing vocals.
      Ian Svenonius is as much a part of US underground punk history as Buzz.
