Alright Dude , what's the name of band (any stuff on youtube? )golden year 1990 !

Lummox.  We were kinda trying to be Melvins but it came out more like Flipper doing Fushitsusha songs - very slow, repetitive and noisy.  We played in the States, New England mostly.  Played a few shows with Lubricated Goat and Babes In Toyland.  Opened for every Amphetamine Reptile / Sub Pop band to play in Portland / Boston.  We were horrendous about 90% of the time and friggin' incredible 10% the time (like most noise rock bands of the era, come to think of it).  We recorded, it sucked, never released it.

I've done more notable stuff in the past ten years, mostly bridesmaid type situations - I play with someone, they move or play with someone with better pop sensibilities than my own and become hot shit Pitchfork godheads.  A little frustrating, I'll admit, but that's my own deal for not playing pop music.

Yeah I like that Stoner Rock stuff , Melvins are great , so you got to play with the Honey? and Tad? Must of been great playing with those groups just before it all got silly and commercialised.

Okay, to be clear - we didn't play with any of the BIG Sub-
Pop names - Mudhoney, TAD, Nirvana or Soundgarden.  I guess I should have said 'second tier Sub-Pop / grungy bands' (Codeine, Screaming Trees, Das Damen, Dinosaur Jr., Bullet Lavolta etc.) .  I did meet Cobain and Noveselic a few times back then - once at a Melvins / Cows gig in Boston (right before Nevermind dropped) and again a few years later at a pizza place in Portland, Maine - very cool guys.  We mostly shot the shit about Melvins and Earth (to be honest, I was kinda over Nirvana at that point - they were in town mastering 'In Utero' and Nirvanamania was still pretty out-of-control).  Lummox (not the Canadian, Dayglo Abortions spin-off) fit more in the Amphetamine Reptile camp (Cows, Lubricated Goat, Killdozer, godheadSilo, Hammerhead, Today Is The Day et.al), really.

Welcome Tone-Loc...you're in good company here...and I can relate to the band thing...I moved up to Manchester due to my band being signed to a small independent...had a couple of releases...a lot of sex...a little drugs...and a sh*tload of rock n roll 

But we all come back to the warm bosom of the galaxys greatest comic eventually

Hot women and loud music is one thing...but thrillpower will never die!
