Are these the worst songs of the 90s? We look at Rollins Band "Liar," Ugly Kid Joe "Everything About You," Eminem "My Name Is," CIV "Can't Wait One Minute More," Barenaked Ladies "One Week," Skee-Lo "I Wish" and Hootie & The Blowfish "Only Wanna Be With You" to ask if these are the worst songs of the 90s.

Cringe take callin Henry an incel, his boyfriend got murdered in front of him and he just never recovered from it, sad but very understandable
Interesting!
Playing the Race card is pretty cringe there, wouldn't you say?
I knew a guy in Ireland struggling in problems with disability and depression, who wrote a letter when he was a teenager to Henry , Henry replied with the kindest and most sincere hand written letter to this total stranger on the other side of the world. My guy had it framed in his bedroom. Cannot knock Rollins for that
I think Henry Rollins is very good at helping, inspiring and motivating change in other people. The issue is that he's never really been able to do any of those things for himself
That’s awesome
@@jessearmstrong-kooy2930 what standard is it that Henry is supposed to be living up to?
@@0satanisboring0 well... if he winds Finn up thats fair enough 🫠
I’ve met Henry Rollins several times. If any fan emails him in earnest, he will respond. It may be 6 months, but he’s an amazingly humble man.
My young brother has ASpergers and is painfully shy. I encouraged him to get into punk like me. He loved it and started a fanzine but he didnt think anyone would talk to him. I said who would you talk to if you could, number one pick. He said rollins. So I said contact him. Whats the worst that happens he says no. Guess what? Rollins did the interview. Rollins is a moody guy but he is a good guy at heart.
Never stop making these Finn. You can even do 70’s and 80’s
Would love to see him rating Bee Ges :D
hows zihuatanejo
Gotta give Henry a credit for quitting music in early 00s.
Idk why but Finn you look short in your videos. I thought you were like 5 foot 6
I always found it interesting that “Liar”was a hit, yet one of the more inaccessible songs the Rollins Band had.
Between the video and it getting played on one of the more famous episodes of Beavis and Butthead (which were HUGE) at the time, a lot of people got exposed to this song that wouldn't normally be
I love Liar
You’re lying
The song Liar talks like a narcissistic psychopath is describing himself, that's Henry's idea I think, and he conveyed it pretty well.
yes I always thought of it as a POV type song, as not as Henry actually describing his own self. there was lots of punk songs like this like sarcastically told from the perspective of someone else, someone unpleasant, etc. it's like how in books people dont realize the protilaginiat of the novel isnt the author it's a character... told from a character's perspective. so yes I always saw this as the perspective of a narcissist sociopath and I find it pretty accurate since I have personally known one.
@@heatheroriordan5800 Exactly. He completely misunderstood the lyrics and missed how well observed and accurate they were . These days the word "narcissist" and what they look/act like and red flags etc are all over the internet, but back then, most of that knowledge would have come from very keen observation and reading and other non-internet research, which makes it even more impressive in my opinion.
You’re right Finn, we all need to be more like you. Even successful musician/actor/writers need to get on the Finn program to become truly well rounded humans. Maybe, if we all try real hard, we’ll have sponsors paying us to sell their crap like you do!
Hopefully so!
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA complains how rollins sold out for commercial gain, immediately after that starts mumbling some bullshit dental advertisement...oh the sweet sweet irony
Wayy to be obtuse
@@itsgoldn931To Obtuse!!! Let's go!! 👉🏻
No one can cross arms like Henry Rollins back in the days...
I work at Target and was training some new girl one day. Some college kid came in and asked if we sold poncho's and she was offended that he called it a poncho. She then complained to me for 20 minutes about how insensitive it was that he wanted one, but proceeded to call it a drug rug instead of a poncho. I was very confused and never spoke to her again.
*_”I Wish” by Skee-Lo samples Bernard Wright’s song “Spinnin’”. The reason it’s so funky is because Marcus Miller played bass on the original song. Marcus is considered to be one of the best bass players to have ever lived._*
I think that's what made so many 90's rap beats so great, using old funk tracks. I normally get bothered by excessive sampling, but it worked in this case. I think George Clinton got a lot more fans from people who listened to Dr. Dre.
It’s the whistle for me😮☺️
Let’s be real about songs like Liar, the lyrics are bad but in a fun way. To me songs like this come off as goofy; not serious. If he meant it serious, that’s fine. But my interpretation of the song makes it fun to listen to for me
90s rap holds up better than most other genre's of music from that era. Wu-Tang, Dre, Nas, Snoop, 2Pac, Cypress Hill, etc. They are still sound great today and are still making great music.
I work in a high school and play 90's rap every once in a while and i never get a good reaction. i don't get it, because i get better reactions from grunge and pop-punk
Notice all those rap artists are black (and in Cypress Hill’s case Hispanic)… Finn is exactly the “I don’t like rap but I like Eminem” person he was talking about!
@@benjaminwatt2436 Ya maybe 90s hiphop is just overrated, I think dated is a good word for it where some of the attitudes and beats don't really fit with the Gen Z crowd as much as post trap beats whatever those are called and the aspirational lyrics about getting pussy. In 90s the lyrics were more demotivational like I just want to shoot cops because they don't let me smoke weed. Actually I just had a thought, 90s rap is to rock to what 70s rock was. And 2020s rap is the 1980s of rap. We are pretty much on our "hair metal" phase for rap now. Just like before the quality of 90s rap was better but the sound of 2022 rap is more fun and addictive.
@@HeavyMetal-jy4vj wow really good summary man I agree
I always thought My Name Is is a goofy song by design and adding the 90s references will of course turn it a little corny, but for once I do not consider “corny” to have a negative meaning, I’d still bump it every now and then for some quick fun
You came dangerously close to telling Henry to “pull himself up by his bootstraps” 😆
I’m sure you would agree that our mindset, habits and choices matter WRT responding to trauma, right? Otherwise non-pharmaceutical treatment is useless because we have no agency.
I thought that phrase was referring to telling people born into poverty they should just work harder rather than about dealing with mental health
@@alexmonro1711 I mean, you're born into your situation and mind and he's telling him to just work harder to deal with it, so... It's a bit bootstrappy.
@@xenos_n. Well I guess its true no one can truly know what it's like living with someone else's mind. Still dont think the phrase is used right though
@@alexmonro1711 anyone that uses their situation their born into (short of actual mental illness such as downs) as a crutch for not succeeding can only blame themselves for their life - the kid who was homeless at 16 and is now in the top 1%
eminem showed his lyrical versatility is the first line of his first hit song... like clearly MTV was like you can't ask kids if they like violence on our network... and instead of just bleeping the line he easily changed it to primus and it fits perfectly and doesn't take away from the song at all. Genius ]
Re: Rollins & growth (or lack thereof) - thing is, he did make himself into that guy (biggest transition occurring between Damaged and My War where he totally turned from Henry Garfield into ROLLINS Inc.)
As a HUGE former fan myself, that was a total inspiration when I was an unwanted, damaged teenager - that you could make yourself into something more than what your circumstances had dealt you. As an adult, I can see that his approach is blinkered and leads to limited results, but it's better than NOT doing anything, which is the default for the vast majority.
I met Rollins over 30 years ago before a spoken word show that he did in SF and we talked for about 45 minutes. He is very attractive in person and if he had hit on me I would have totally gone for it. Just saying. I agree with you about him. He has been stuck in the same mental state for decades and it's sad. He's not a stupid guy but hanging on to that trauma drags him down.
Ditto. He headbutted me after a Black Flag show. He's the man. Liar video is pretty cringe, tho....
Henry Rollins is a dilf. He is a great looking guy and seems super nice in interviews.
I recently got to meet Henry Rollins and he was actually super nice. One of the local libraries in my area had him as a speaker and had a book signing after. It was a great free event that was open to the public which is rare now days
Finn, you crack me up and not always intentionally. I was laughing along with you regards Rollins adverts and then BOOOM!!! "But first lets talk about "insert product" so I can do my own advert" I laughed and laughed at the unintentional hypocrisy...
I don’t like “One Week” at all, but the mere fact that a goofy ass song like that was fair game for the top of the charts is exactly what makes the 90’s the greatest decade for music, and for life, ever.
Agreed. The best thing about the 90s was the wide range of music that passed through that decade.
That’s what I liked about the 90s, so much zany stuff that was legitimately popular.
The 90's was the last decade when the music industry was comfortable enough to fuck around with weird stuff. Napster came along, and they shat themselves and didn't want to risk money on zany projects.
Idk. There are A LOT of shit songs/artists from the 90s that dilute the quality of the pool of music. The best of the 90s is god tier, but the sheer amount of garbage also holds the 90s back from being the best.
Darius and his merry band of blowfish hold up weirdly well for such a bland sound. Vedder vocals, vaguely country sounding, evokes mental imagery of 0% APR financing until 1997 on a brand new Ford truck... completely and utterly not my thing, but for some reason, I never skip their songs when they come up on 90s playlists.
Darius was sorta like a soft rock yarler. Rob Thomas was another one.
would you say they're super cres at best?
@@subparnaturedocumentary Hoot-it-ie man, sings Hold-a My Hand, he was in a band and tours in a van... he's so crescent fresh! Bet-ter than John Tesh!
He's a good musician his a ridiculously famous country singer.
@@crescentfresh8001 that comment was definitely super cres!
Henry Rollins has said many times that he'll do anything for cash. On this video you support a company called Dave; probably a high interest loan company; I'd rather be in a GAP commercial...But the songs not all that great.
Actually Dave is just a standard neobank that has a paycheck advance functionality. Super cool app actually
Nice rebuttal man we all got to make money.
@@HeavyMetal-jy4vj I wasn't bagging Rollins, just saying this what he's said many times. Throw cash in my direction and I'd unashamedly do the the same; especially if I grew up poor. The point was, don't hang shit on someone for being in an advertisement then literally 3 seconds later you're doing an ad for a company called "Dave".
Liar is fantastic, you can't change my mind. It's perfectly weird and very 90s, nothing else like it, and a pretty good jam.
Hell yeah 👍🔥👍
Henry Rollins gets unfair treatment here. He's a long way from being an incel-sympathetic misogynist. Liar is a clever little piece of juxtaposition that demonstrates the failings of toxic masculinity - I have seen radical feminists praise that song! Rollins' interviews are interesting and more often than not he comes across as an optimist. According to this video Rollins should be a miserable self-loathing Morrissey clone. Also - If we wish to be in opposition to the objectification of women, it probably isn't the best idea to repeatedly say 'That dude has slayed so many tens'.
It's actually pretty funny to call him an incel because he's woke as fuck. And being woke and being an incel are kind of mutually exclusive traits at the opposite ends of the spectrum.
Bro if feminists are praising it, it's probably not something you ever want associate with
I recently got to meet Henry Rollins and he was actually super nice. One of the local libraries in my area had him as a speaker and had a book signing after. It was a great free event that was open to the public which is rare now days
Barenaked Ladies have a dark, serious side and their first album Gordon is mind-blowing.
Their version of lovers in a dangerous time is amazing!
"'I spend 30 years writing song about how miserable I am' I think it's unhealthy and it's a terrible message" I agree with you on that. That's why I like your video about Hatebreed makes me appreciate the band even more because there message is essentially "shit sucks sometime but keep your head up and you can overcome it".
I love these videos. It gives us a chance to show the masses artist that they would never have heard of otherwise (Henry Rollins, etc). I love this channel. I love revisiting these videos. Do more videos like these. There are tons of one hit wonders and era (90s, 2000s) songs etc that would be good content to review if you ever need content.
I like a few Rollins band songs. They were a product of their time. I've heard he slayed women back in the day- Before & after sets. Once he got outta music he's done some really cool stuff. Travels the world, does his brand of spoken word, "comedy." Wrote a book- Acted. Kind of a lone wolf- Especially after al the gnarly things dude went through. Liar holds up to me just fine. Give the guy some slack. He's just eccentric.
Ghost rider is a good cover also.
I was a big fan of Rollins Band as a kid and still enjoy many of those songs. Weight was a great album, Liar is the outlier on the record. It was 30 years ago, it was a different time and got then alot of notoriety. I know people love to bag on Rollins but there was alot of excellent music he was behind.
I recently got to meet him and he was actually super nice. One of the local libraries in my area had him as a speaker and had a book signing after. It was a great free event that was open to the public
@@Zombub I'm glad to hear that. It seems like the thing to do these days is to shit on him. Lots of people here are saying his music is "cringe". I think shitting on people who have had huge success in their lives is in fact cringe.
My favorite was Come in and Burn. I got a special England cd that had 2 extra tracks on it
Wait.... Henry Rollins, the voice of Mad Stan on Batman Beyond, was in a band? When did this happen?
Found the person born after 9/11
@@5starview Yeah, man, 2001 - my folks went all-out on that gender reveal, not gonna lie.
I swear man everything you say is everything I've ever thought. been in the hard-core scene since I was 13 and now 38. your content takes me back to the good days and then realize they weren't always that great of days in any genre of music lol. keep it up.man.
Thank you!
Finn's truest hypocrisy is loving gotees on the buttrock bois from the 2000s, but hating it on men from the 90s lmaooo
Depends on how many leather wrist cuffs they’re wearing with it
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA you think that Mystery guy from pick up artist listens to butt rock?
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA they’re like gym badges: you need at least a certain minimum to have the right to have them
As an 11-year-old I loved only wanna be with you by hootie and the blowfish so God damn much that I bought the single on cassette tape and listened to it in my walkman constantly.
I remember cassette tape singles. I had the marshal mathers LP on cassette. I used to record radio songs onto a cassette tape from my boom box. It was the thing to do before burning CDs became a thing and blew my mind.
As Finn points out.....say what you want about Henry Rollins, he knew how to employ some great musicians to give that sort of funk-meets-Black Sabbath sound.
Chris Haskett is a damn good guitarist and both Melvin Gibbs and Andrew Weiss are killer bass players.
The best usage of Liar was on Beavis And Butthead
That's totally the edited version of My Name Is. If that first "violence" is replaced with "Primus" you got the nerfed version. lol
And there's a huge difference.
I was gonna say...pretty sure thats supposed to be violence haha.
"Liar" is a piece of art, i'm not a big fan of him but he got the energy, the lyrics, the passion. I don't care if in some part of the song says "i'll burn your soul"' I think it's part of the whole that makes the song come together. Take for example all the metal songs that talk about the soul and burning the soul and etc. They mean that they are embarrassing ? He knows about how to be a frontman, he have everything, inlcuided the theatrical faces and movements cos that's why we called the "scene".Btw he never wanted to be a singer and frontman, Black Flag came to him.
I wonder how good this kind of content will hold up two or three decades from now.
Fuckin' LOVE that Ugly Kid Joe song! I think it holds up. :D
"I hate rap, but Eminem is cool," has the same energy as "I don't read J.K. Rowling, but I like all her Tweets."
And they will probably simp hard for Chapelle haha
I imagine Quinton Tarantino is to blame for the suits being cool aspect of the 90’s
And Swingers. You're money baby!
@@robcressey7228 Vince Vaughn, the actor, the verb
My Name Is doesn't hold up for the same reason why a lot of rap (especially humorous rap) doesn't hold up. It makes a lot of references to the time it came from. His serious songs definitely hold up and really any rapper that's seen as god tier talks more about serious topics
I completely forgot how the My Name Is music video perfectly encapsulated the 90s, wow
Sounds like you're still mad about Henry not giving you an autograph when you went to one of his spoken word performances in 2003.
Hahaha straight hater energy
I think Weight was the Rollins Band best album... so many bangers on that album, especially Civilized and Alien Blueprint.
My Name Is is so different from the rest of the album. It portrayed Eminem as a goofy Beastie Boys-style white boy rapper. Then you listen to the rest of the record and its all gangster stuff and murder fantasies.
We had to do calligraphy art for the school halls in 92. "I hate everything about you" - ugly kid joe. with a great drawing of the tazmanian devil everyone accused me of tracing, which i did not. Didn't win any fans or friends. 😂😂
Just started the video (only seen the Rollins one). Everyone has troubles and trauma. It took me years to get "just okay" after responding a coworker r***d and murdered (in prison), going through a bout with alcoholism and suicidal thoughts (that event isn't the only part of that, but it's a big catalyst). You can let negative experiences define you and ruin your life, or you can accept it for what it is and grow. Terrible things happen, there's no denying that, but letting trauma, etc. drive you into negative thoughts, drug abuse/alcoholism, suicide, and so on does nothing for you. Processing your trauma, your bad childhood, your mental health issues, etc. is a necessity for growth and overcoming those negative experiences.
- High My Name is Will be the Rosetta Stone for a future archeologist studying 1990's pop culture.
- Bare Naked Ladies and the suits is I'm guessing influenced by the movie Swingers.
Oh man I’ve always referred to my aesthetic as “late 90s headshop” but Finn just made me realize it’s actually “loser core” 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤣🤣🤣
As someone who has been really into Bodybuilding for years Finn couldn't beat more right about Bodybuilding when it comes to the inscure aspect unfortunately. I mean thats I how discovered both, Bodybuilding and Rock/Metal music the 2 things I love most, so I guess in the end it was for the best lol😆
Bodybuilding actually has alot in common with the rock and roll lifestyle believe it or not. The biggest example probably being that both activities do big paycheck shows a couple of times a year for Bodybuilding that would be competing at The Mr. Olympia, Arnold Classic, NY Pro, or any smaller shows and vise versa for rock and metal musicians.
Only 9% get successful in the music industry, let alone being in a rock band. Wrong comparison, mate.
Ah I've gone down a happy memory rabbit hole of Ugly Kid Joe, still sounds great! When I was at school my dad would sing 'she was a good witch, she was a bad witch, but all I really wanted was a cheese and pickle sandwich' when he was making my lunch :)
Hell yeah the drummer from Hootie was happy! They went from bar band in 5 Points area in Columbia SC, to making videos with Marino and playing Coliseums in like a year and half.
Don't underestimate us Canadians, Finn. We love rallying around our music artists that are on the verge of breaking through the American mainstream glass ceiling no matter how cheesy and corny they are. It's just a damn shame that the Barenaked Ladies broke through and not the Tragically Hip.
Rollins is talking about being in a relationship with a sociopath
Eminem would be cancelled instantly if My Name Is came out anytime in the past decade pretty much lol.
I think if you'd have done the Ugly Kid Joe version of "Cat's in the Cradle" it most definitely would have held up. I remember that one from my childhood and just loving every single second 🤗
Skee Lo's "I wish" is still one of my favorite 90's hip hop/rap tracks
Oh man! In '95, Hootie and the Blowfish was everybody's dad's favorite new band. I called it golf rock.
Also, I would say Darius was a "soft yarler", like a more mom-friendly version of what you'd hear in 2000s butt-rock bands. Rob Thomas from Matchbox 20 also comes to mind.
Dude Liar was one of my favorite songs of the 90’s. It’s not Cringe whatsoever. The lyrics literally explain a Narcissist Liar. It’s Great
My wife and I debated on the Hootie line “the dolphins made me cry” we weren’t sure if they meant the team or the animal. But when we looked up the lyrics “dolphins” isn’t capitalized. So that leads us to believe they mean the animal. Which makes that line hilarious 😂
Can u post a link to your band please. I wanna see how it 'holds up' just curious
ua-cam.com/video/RIMJinbN5no/v-deo.html
The slow fade to a white screen had me laughing so hard.
I interviewed Rollins for a free alt weekly paper in Boston in the early '00s, ran out of both sides of an 90 minute cassette tape and he was still talking - cool guy, great stories but I had to excuse myself to get back to my office job at Emerson College. Also saw Jello Biafra do a spoken word thing at Emerson in the same era and left 2+ hours after, he was still going...got to see Rollins Band with Keith Morris fronting doing Black Flag songs for a West Memphis Three benefit, that was pretty alright.
Eminem is inarguably talented but even at the time I thought a lot of his references would age terribly - "My bum is on your lips" etc, oof.
I graduated high school in '96 - thanks for the Ugly Kid Joe reference. I'd also submit Green Jelly "Three Little Pigs," King Missle "Detachable Penis," Jackyl "The Lumberjack" (featuring lead chainsaw). I remember a favorite band poll a teacher took in class my senior year, and the overwhelming response was Hootie & the Blowfish if we're talking about "the real 90s." People like to think that "Nevermind" came out and hair metal etc all went away but I don't remember kids throwing away their cassingles of Warrant's "Uncle Tom's Cabin."
Next 90s video you do should include Kid Rock Bawitdaba, Serial Joe Mistake, Prozzak Strange Disease, Matchbox 20 Bent, B44 Get Down, Len Steal my Sunshine, etc..
I used to love Henry, being on the spectrum and not having the best upbringing I related to him in many ways, but looking back that was teenage me relating to a middle-aged man... dunno it seems like he may have missed a lot of opportunities to grow in a healthier way as opposed to being uptight and stern all the time. Don't know the dude but I completely get what you're saying Finn!
P.S. I know a dude who has a very similar intensity to Henry (and a solid physique) and it's amusing to see him not knowing how to talk to all these women who are interested in him
Bro, your gonna get me in trouble with these videos. I cant hold in my laughter. UKJ was my jam back in the day. So bad. So funny. I had to pause and wait till i get home to fi ish watching
Love to see how the baha jackets have eras xD i was so confused when Finn started describing the people who wore it. The people i saw wearing them were the popular kids who were teachers pick and the "cool kids" cause theyre so "relaxed and chill but too cool and hip for my country town " xD
The real lyric to that em song is "hey kids do you like VIOLENCE". Not primus. Not sure why they changed the lyrics from the album version
Henry Rollins was the Ayn Rand of the 90’s.
One Week holds up in my opinion. Listen to it still almost every single day. Defines apart of my childhood. Also goated for being on the Digimon movie soundtrack
That feature in the digimon movie has been enough to keep one week in my good graces all these years later
I'd have to disagree with you on Henry Rollins. If you follow him on social media, you can see that he's definitely become a lighter hearted and more self aware person, and I feel like songs such as "low self opinion", he directly criticizes that loner incel mindset. Plus he talks a lot about growing as a person and ditching that nihilist mentality in his stand up routines.
You cant just look at Henry in the 90s and say he's never changed
I believe in My Name Is Em is actually saying, “Hi kids, do you like violence?” Do you like Primus is from the edited version….I think.
I do think that Barenaked Ladies’ song holds up because it is still being played more than 20 years its release, whereas most mumble rap will be forgotten like a fart in the wind after a few years or months
I forgot what podcast I was listening to but some comedian used to live near Henry Rollins and said he would see the odd girl leave Rollins' house every once in a while. And I guess he meant odd as in strange because Rollins' virgin energy is too strong to deny.
My family was driving home one Christmas Night through a little town in Ohio. My Mom and Sister were asleep so my Dad and I were listening to the radio quietly. A song ended and the DJ confidently proclaimed, "...and up next, Hooty And The Blow Shits...Fish...Ohhhh".
My Dad and I laughed so loud that my Mom and Sister woke up panicking. We had to explain what happened and they began laughing their asses off. The Radio Station played pure silence for close to 5 minutes. It was one of the funny things I've ever witnessed.
The first time I saw the "My name is" video, I legit thought it was a joke commercial. I had a bad taste in my mouth for a few weeks until my friend JR who was a big rap fan played me the entire album and I was blown away.
Bevis and Butthead said Liar was cool so that's means it's cool.
These are always so fun! I listen to these while making deliveries, and sometimes laugh out loud
11:39 If you can't tell by that strange noise this is the TV / radio edit. The actual lyrics are:
"Hi kids. Do you like violence?"
There were a couple other changes in the part you played as well. And yes, this song is very 90's.
Henry is writing a song about shitty dudes here. I don't think he's an incel or Chad. He is just a healthy level headed guy, Finn.
As huge fan of HR, Personally I would consider Henry Rollins more “try hard” rather than cringe,
I think you're taking Henry's lyrics WAY too literally. Do you think he's really singing about himself? lol
Yeah, seemed to go way over his head and actually missed how insightful and accurate the lyrics are. A lot of people seem to misunderstand Henry and I think that's a shame.
I love the shout out to the sample for "I wish". RIP Bernard,"Spinnin" is a great track
There's a Key and Peele sketch where they keep calling Darius Rucker, Hootie. It's hilarious.
"do you like primus?" is the censored version lmfao it's "violence" ...did you really not know?
One of my best friends in university had one of those ponchos and he's exactly like you described lol
BNL are a personal favorite but it kinda bums me out that "One Week" is their biggest song
I'm 37 and I have gone to the gym in a berserk anime shirt, demon slayer shirt, "chubby + buff = chuff" shirt and a black gymshark shirt. Your right on this one, fin lol. Was at my gym a few nights ago and a big buff dude was wearing a naruto shirt 🤣
Hootie & The Blowfish are still LEGEN-DARY down here in the South. My wife & I spent our 10th anniversary in 2015 at a Darius Rucker concert, and it still jams and folks are still into it both young & old.
Most legendary one hit wonder?
(Darius Rucker going solo and doing country is by far the best decision he could’ve made)
The 90s! What a time to be alive
I didn’t know Henry Rollins did a gap ad
“I don’t know what the spectrum is, but you better get off it pronto”. -Johnny Lawrence
I used to be kind of a drug abuser, in the way that I still got through school, but I also just went nuts when I had the chance. This one day on Roskilde Festival 2013, I had been messed up for days, I woke up at about 5 am, got outside in the camp where some people hadn't gone to bed yet, opened a beer, and then literally puked blood, pure blood, nothing else. I tried the entire day to get better, I tried juice, salt, food, and a lot of wine, and I just kept puking. I ended up alone in my tent at night, shaking, sweating, having severe anxiety, and hearing Metallica tear up the Orange Stage in front of all of my friends. I was insanely low. The next day, I felt a little better, and I was determined to go see Henry Rollins spoken word. I managed to keep some rice and chicken down, and I went in the tent. All I knew about him was, that he was in a legendary punk band, that I never listened to, but inspired every band I did listen to, so I was gonna check him out. I sat in that insanely hot tent, sweating pure misery out of my body, almost fainting a couple of times had it not been for people giving me water, but I couldn't leave. The things he said were so motivating, they made me so hopeful, and I left that tent so invigorated that it's impossible to describe. It was an amazing experience, Henry Rollins is nothing short of brilliant, and now, having dug deeper into the man in the years since then, I also think he is an insanely cringe, incel, borderline asshole, who only learned how to be a sufficiently decent human being in his 50's. But because of that one day, I still absolutely love him. What a paradox ..
Much of Ugly Kid Joe holds up better than Everything About You. More serious lyrically. He was a better fit for LOA than people gave him credit for, especially in a live setting. The band recognized it wasn’t a fit in recorded format, and thankfully Mina came back. Some of Whit’s other projects, Medication (with Logan Mader I think) and Another Animal were pretty good, considerable for your next side project discussion.
Ha ha yeah calling Darius Rucker Hootie is like when Bravia and Butthead kept calling Phil Anselmo “Pantera” 🤣
Okay what the hell autocorrect it’s Beavis and Butthead 😂
Yk. I never realized it but Finn does have a point about battle rappers becoming their own artists. I used to love Mac Lethals music when I was a teenager but These days I can definitely look at his music and say that it's objectively bad. Great and talented guy but certainly not a good songwriter.
Why the Vegas style suit aesthetic, Finn...?
Three words. Cherry Poppin' Daddies.
Don't deny it.
"Don't let the nostalgia blind you!" 🤣 So true! Loved the 90's but lots of cringe. These videos are great Finn!
"Cake, PUSA...." That was supposed to be my very first concert. Lemon Heads opening, Cake, then PUSA...but PUSA ditched the concert to play on Rosie and Cake came out and played an encore and totally rocked it. 8th Grade me was bummed, but my dad was chillin' in the back hoping he didn't get a contact high while he was in between jobs and couldn't fail a piss test.
