Gen X Videos

[Unkle_John]

I've been on a nostalgia kick lately as I upload songs to my MP3 player. Here are a few videos you can check out that I enjoyed back when they came out... and still enjoy today. Some are political, some are just fun songs to sing to. So here they are, in no particular order.

Pearl Jam ~ Do the Evolution (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FS69fuCOhTM) A bad-ass and very powerful animated video

Ministry ~ Jesus Built My Hot Rod (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RBKTo5K14M)

Ministry ~ New World Order (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlcvJjRvT7c) (yes that's daddy bush sampled in this song)

KMFDM ~ A Drug Against War (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=855QLTV2Rj4)

L7 ~ Pretend We're Dead (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-NNitijboI)

Veruca Salt ~ Seether (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AI95BVkiW0)

Veruca Salt ~ Volcano Girls (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0HjzD_GiaQ) Gawd the gals are cute in this vid!!

The Breeders ~ Cannonball (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RiJMZQXa2o)

U2 ~ Mysterious Ways (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZLjE_wuRE0) I will always remember the first love I had, she was dancing to this song.

Wax ~ Southern California (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPT7q825gwI)

Nirvana ~ In Bloom (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8rHPIm6qjU)

Beck ~ Loser (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJN3PGqDRNg)

Beck ~ Devil's Haircut (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YG3sS8RBdms) Good use of an MC5 Riff.

Beck ~ Girl (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13iLkTrDlbI)

Nirvana ~ On A Plain (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqZEJhkDS4c) This song has been fitting of me lately. The video is a fan video (which I don't normally like), but the song is Nirvana.

Nirvana ~ You Know You're Right (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PB5YcnsotZI) A VERY powerful song.


...and not to leave this thread on a downer... here some fun songs to round it off.


The Presidents of the United States of America (PUSA) ~ Lump (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uDDdxDKmNA)

PUSA ~ Peaches (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvcohzJvviQ)

PUSA ~ Love Everybody (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuk6vuNZiHY) This goes out to everyone on the board.

PUSA ~ Some Postman (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5LBZIai2O0) This is the first major music video shot on cell phones. Yeah it's a recent song. Some postman you turned out to be.

PUSA ~ Sweet & Sour (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHNB0G8yWSA) This song WILL be stuck in your head. I love the girl, but I wish that she would take a shower.

I was really into Nirvana at that time. I also got quite into Rage against the Machine. I saw them both at the Worcester Centrum.

Nirvana is my fav band from the 90's.
I feel Kurt was the Jim Morrison of our generation

[Unkle_John]

The Hunger ~ Vanishing Cream (http://youtube.com/watch?v=EAUiY6PBCgY) A great Texas band.

Lucy's Fur Coat ~ Treasure Hands (http://youtube.com/watch?v=10LkrpzP6VU) Sadly this is a live recording, but great guitar riffs.

Nudeswirl ~ F Sharp (http://youtube.com/watch?v=bP1qnxnu4aI)

Dave Mathews Band ~ Ants Marching (http://youtube.com/watch?v=5LY9p8Spe7Y)

Dave Mathews Band ~ Don't drink the water. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=wMAnYUwIhk0) ... there's blood in the water.

Pop Will Eat Itself ~ Ich Bin Ein Auslander (http://youtube.com/watch?v=SqJ_bb8KMV0) From the Album: Dos Dedos Mi Amigos (two fingers my friends)

Therapy? ~ Teethgrinder (http://youtube.com/watch?v=oH_yivWallk) I can still taste the first hit grass in the back of my throat when I hear this song.

Garbage ~ Only happy when it rains (http://youtube.com/watch?v=IyZO7b5Xafo) I can't think of how many times I... made the saints cry, thinking about her. Hey I was in between girlfriends.

Orgy ~ Blue Monday (http://youtube.com/watch?v=Phnld-XX0tM) Great 80's remake... what happened to this band?

Sepultura ~ Roots, Bloody Roots (http://youtube.com/watch?v=3lzqdamO510) For the METAL HEADZ!!!!

Sepultura ~ Itsari (http://youtube.com/watch?v=wa6zo8bd4M0) Something about this song speaks to me... it's not "metal" sounding, very classical guitar & native sounding. I would love to hear more music like this. Please listen to it.

311 ~ Down (http://youtube.com/watch?v=gt-nBwJR3KA)

311 ~ All Mixed Up (http://youtube.com/watch?v=aYqnpFU8aUQ)

Supernova ~ Chewbacca (http://youtube.com/watch?v=VjQMpBb1gps) What a wookie.

Soul Asylum ~ Can't even tell (http://youtube.com/watch?v=7CPo2v9ujug) I miss my younger years.

Soul Asylum ~ Misery (http://youtube.com/watch?v=M8gJ3igY2Lk) This song is at the end of Clerks 2. When I saw it, I kinda choked up b/c I felt like this movie spoke to me on how I felt about my life. I guess I'm just a slacker.
