Freedom From Expectations

 
Since this is kind of weird niche kind of blog it really doesn't get a whole lot of traffic.
I mean, sometimes it does, but then there's not a whole lot of people usually partaking of the offerings herein.

I mean, last I looked there were some things that despite some people stopping by, nobody wanted to hear. Total Fucking Blood for example.

Their loss.

But the beauty is that I can basically post whatever shit I want without having to live up to somebody else's unrealistic standards of what a music blog is supposed to be.

Half the fucking time I don't even type anything about the music itself and just blurt out some bullshit with a few links.

It works for me.
It means I can get away with the laziest posts and fewer than a dozen people will even notice and most of them don't care.


Trem-or Flo (1997)


The band is called Tremorphlo.

I picked these up quite a while ago actually. I think I was looking for someone else and got the name confused or something. It wasn't what I was originally looking for anyway.

But it's exactly the type of thing that might have played at the Uptown on a Thursday night.
It's very of its time and well along the alternative rock axis flirting with popular vocal stylings.





Big Jim Don't Spit (1998)

I think I was looking for Deformo.
(But I already posted that stuff a while ago on both of these blog things.)

Anyway because I'm feeling kind of lazy I'm going to just tack the follow up Ep on with the album so there's one fewer posts I have to make in the end. 


I mean, its only four more songs with a really shit title that I hope was just some sort of really funny in-joke for the band and seemed like a great idea at the time. From this vantage point it's not a winner. I can tell you that much.

But why the fuck not add it?

It's not like there's anybody going to complain.

Are you?

    I'm not complaining. I always visit your blog. I, like you, have a blog with "Freedom from Expectations". It makes it so much easier to just post up what I feel like posting & not really give a flying fuck what anyone else thinks. It's my damn blog. I share what I'm listening to at the moment or rant about some bug that got up my butt. Keep up the good work. I have helped myself to great tastes here for quite some time. Sorry I never took the time to comment. Freedom from expectations kinda goes all ways.

It's a Slurpee Day

  'Cuz it's 7/11. Get it? Huh?    Something in French (1995) Oh dear. I don't appear to have made my own scans for this. AND it's packed away in a box still. Sorry for the shitty graphics. This is the debut by Voodoo Love Mint. It's rock and roll and kind of loud.  You like loud rock and roll don't you? Well, don't you?

  So here were are. The deal is that I've got too much fucking stuff that I think people ought to hear and not enough time or space in which to do it on one blog. I've also been in the Twin Cities for a long ass time and have seen, heard and played with so many really good bands that it seems a shame that nobody has heard them. So I've made this even dumber blog thing to flog the local tomfoolery for your dancing and dining pleasure. Even in Minnesota, they could really give a rat's ass about your local band until you get enough recognition somewhere else that they'll proudly claim you as "From Minnesota". I mean, if you take someone iconic like Bob Dylan, who generally needs no introduction, he's inevitably referred to as "Minnesota Native Bob Dylan" any time he's brought up on local media. It's kind of annoying, but leads us into this inaugural post. Soft Rock (2002) Once upon a time there was a band called Lifter Puller . They exis...

 Well, it's later the same night and I finally killed that jug of local gin I'd bought this summer. Twin Town Music Yearbook Volume Four (2001) Tracklist at Discogs Another one where I don't know where to start. So I won't. Just listen already. Suffice it to say that this one has a number of things that have caused me to flip through many a local bin searching for long forgotten goodness and bunch of adds to the old wantlist.
