that is not the question. this is: what are your thoughts on this band?
I heard and enjoyed a little bit of what is probably their "worst" record.
of course I am referring to spectrum of infinite scale.

I seem to have a habit of approaching bands at all the wrong times and from all the wrong angles.

under bridge water.
let us reflect upon this band and journey beyond "awesome" and "sux".
I am in a very strange frame of mind right now.

what's not to like about these boys? sci-fi outerspace surf-rock rockabilly punks

transmissions from uranus will continue to be classic for generations to come

ok, that's the live one, correct?
here's something else to chew up and wash down with a glass of hmmmmm...
should live recordings be used as reliable introductions? I realize that there are
quality and horrendous live records out there, but what I am getting at is...
should one be semi familiar with a band's music before he/she cracks the live case?
this question could very well be answered with a yes or a no. it just depends on who
I am asking, right? well... right now it is you. proceed at your own natural pace.

fuk the dum shit. i got transmissions from uranus on (picture) vinyl and disc.

much music out tha doesnt translate well in the studio. case in point - man OR astroman. none of their studio efforts comes close to even the recorded reproduction of their live jams. jam.

I dig them- but don't know any albums.

I caught them live in the 90's and had a blast

alrighty, the live stuff is a keeper.
