[Anders]

No Vitalogy?

'blood' is one of their most 'punk' songs. is it too angry ti be 'spritzy'?

[Anders]

I think yes.

[stip]

no - spritzy punk needs to be bright and upbeat

[stip]

i was responding to the vitalogy comment.

mankind is patient zero

[Anders]

I honestly love Mankind, not absolute top tier Pearl Jam, but certainly a top 100 song. But with Stone singing, I always thought of it as an anomaly, and in most ways very different from SBWM.

what a great song. black, red, yellow was written about the same time?

no spin the black circle?

[stip]

too raw - and there isnt enough shine on it.


there is a whole list of aggressive fast paced punk influenced songs, but they arent spritzy

[evenslow]

man, people are really having a lot of trouble with the whole "spritzy" part of this. you can't just throw out any fast punk song.

spritzy is bubbly, can't-sit-still, sunny, giggly, hyper, bouncy. aka not anything off of vitalogy. whipping is not spritzy for god's sake.

stip is probably right that mankind is patient zero but that feels weird with stone on vocals. it's really more of a post ST phenomenon to be honest. they seemed to double down on that specific type of song as an automatic part of their repertoire after the self-serious approach of that record.

the fixer absolutely needs to be on the official list.

'blood' is one of their most 'punk' songs.

I think you're right that it's too angry to be categorized as "spritzy", but just to zero in on this point: "Blood" is in an odd time signature and has funky wah-wah guitar part running through the verses. I don't think it's "one of their most punk songs"

[Ms Harmless]

"Blood" is some hybrid between hardcore and groove-metal, imo; "Leash" is in the same ballpark but a slightly less mature example

it's messy but not punk

[Ms Harmless]

remember when PJ wrote stylistic hybrids?

[Anders]

Spritzy I can like, but pure punk is the worst.

[Ms Harmless]

Spritzy I can like, but pure punk is the worst.

I'm not super into it either

[Strat]

Leatherman isn’t punk for fucks sake. It’s basically a folk song.

[Anders]

Leatherman isn’t punk for fucks sake. It’s basically a folk song.

Is SBWM really a punk song at all either?

[Jorge]

Leatherman isn’t punk for fucks sake. It’s basically a folk song.

Sorry, all the musical parts are there. By this logic Bad Religion wouldn't be a punk band

[Jorge]

Leatherman isn’t punk for fucks sake. It’s basically a folk song.

Definitely a lot of punky elements in this song
