Bands who quit too soon
Christophe:
If they just made music that sounded like 0:34 to 1:10.

Sometimes I wonder if Beulah, regarding their angry circumstances towards the end of their career, would have still been good had they made another record after Yoko. With each album they got progressively sadder and that one was pretty sad so I don't know what it would be like if they continued heading in that direction. I would have rather liked another louder, sad album from them though. Seeing how I think their discography is pretty perfect as it is, I guess it's okay that they stopped when they did. Plus Miles Kurosky was supposed to put out some solo shit like last year and he didn't? He should get on that, it will be like Beulah II.
Elliott Smith died too soon. Way too fucking soon.

--- Quote from: Jeans on 17 Apr 2009, 18:40 ---Obviously it would still be fast and angry - that was sort of the point of the band, after all - but the later stuff they did presents a clear change towards a more melodic approach.

The massive contributing factor to why Ian broke up the band was everyone else had become deeply enamored with U2 and wanted future recordings to sound like them.

This is the only reason to ever break up a good band, ever.

Is this a serious post? I can't imagine this being true.
Christophe:
Yeah, it's true. Toward the end of Minor Threat's tenure Lyle Preslar sold his Marshall stack for a Roland Jazz-Chorus.
Seriously guys, watch that clip of Straight Edge I posted. The beginning is absolutely proto-Fugazi type stuff. It's fun to imagine if that was the direction they went in for a while before Fugazi became a thing.
