Here's a suggestion: take your vague troll post to another forum and leave us alone. This is a guitar forum: talk about guitars.

I'm sorry man. If you weren't there in '88 during the Nothing's Shocking tour, and didn't see them in a dingy little club before they were big, (City Gardens, NJ) playing their hearts out, (top 10 show for me) and didn't see Perry fondled by Navarro after unzipping his plastic "onsies", and, didn't hear the devastating musicianship or see the entire crowd in the palm of their hands, nor did you sense years of utter crap music being washed away years before Nirvana, you may not get it. However, I remember them fondly and respect them immensely for their contribution. Wish they hadn't broken up so soon. You had to be there.

Their history is colored, their frontman looks like the junkie who never died, and well, the original band couldn't play together again ever ....
Anyway the shoplifting song was just pure scratch.
Did he really fart in the microphone during the solo?
60's Classic Vibe Jazz Bass
Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass
Acoustic B200/115
Sansamp DI/Boss TU-3
Marshall MGHDFX-100/a

Maybe a better question is, what's so wrong with them?
I always thought they were kinda original. To each their own.
The cool thing about music is if you don't like it you don't have to listen...unless you were locked away in Guantanimo.

Yeah I know if I saw the guitar player fondling the singer . . . that would sell me on the band.

Um, possibly the best guitarist/frontman duo in the history of alternative rock. Other than that, not much.

That's probably why I don't like them. To me, alternative is the Sturgeon's Law genre. Flame away for me having a closed mind.

If you have to ask you just don't get it. I saw them live twice and their performance was unbelievable. Total originality in a sea of shittly music in the early '90s.

I hated that song too - to the point where I totally dismissed them because of it. I didn't know their other material was totally different until a friend basically forced me to listen to Nothing's Shocking. To hear "Mother Ocean" for the first time after years of shitty synthpop and spandex-metal bands was an amazing experience. It was everything that was great about 80s metal, college alt-rock, and LA sleaze all rolled up into one enormous wall of sound.
