I'll just bring a Nirvana song in and claim it as my own and he'll never know. Still cant believe dude things Green Day is great and Nirvana is horrible. Crazy talk.

I was wondering how a Greenday fan could bag on Nirvana. Glad I am not the only one.

I want Said Gun to become an Embrace tribute band

The Embrace lp is one of my top 5 records ever, always loved that you guys named yourselves after that song!

most people ask if we named it after the Avail cover of that song (?)
It was going to be "Clear Expansive Skies" after the lyric from that first Fugazi record, but we relished that we were out of shape dudes who play high energy punk, so that name should be left to instrumental rock bands and pseudo emo bands.

Naming bands after awesome band song titles or song lyrics.

I wanted to call Rumspringer "the Future Daydreams" but it was voted out.

I am not sure how I feel about the art of naming your band after a song or awesome lyric, it seems kinda lazy, but it is a cool homage at the same time, we did because I couldn't think of a good band name for the life of me, so I started looking at things I thought were awesome in other bands, Shield Your Eyes was another name possibility, but I couldn't name my band after a Jawbreaker song, no matter how much I like Jawbreaker

Go ahead and cover Nirvana Chad!

NEVER! i would rather cover bueno vista social club

oh shit that sould be sick!

[chadk]

i guess i don't understand why i can't like green day and not nirvana?

sure both came from the underground and "sold out" but when i was in high school i never saw nirvana play small clubs in my town, i did however see greenday on a few occasions and was really really into lookout records, i did like subpop stuff but more of bands like seaweed and such.

i really didn't like the rest of the "grunge" bands either, i was stuck in my pop punk / crust punk thing and nirvana didn't fit my tastes, still don't and i don't care that pat smear played with them later on.

i can say they are not the worst of those bands and i can tolerate their music but it's just not my thing.

I want Rumspringer to do "Down inside" by Monsula
i want Japanese Monsters to do "Circles" by Dag Nasty
I think any Unwound song by Emperors of Japan would sound good
I want Said Gun to become an Embrace tribute band
and cagematch should Down Tun-a-fie Mariah Carey songs, but Nirvana would be cool too i suppose.

I would totally be down to cover a unwound song!

Love that band.

I know I'm a little biased here but I loved it when Sweetbleeders used to cover Blue Jay Way and Bjork's Isobel. I think it's great for bands to go out of their comfort zones. Go ahead and cover Nirvana Chad!

I never got to hear you guys cover bjork.

Hopefully you guys will cover it again and I will be there to hear it.
