These days Thirlwell is making music I've always wanted to hear since I was young. So much creative talent and amazing vision. I think his lack of critical acclaim is a symptom of the days, I guess--music is in a wretched place right now. JGT, if you're out there, i luv u hunny
It's not that. Radio is irrelevant. The problem is two fold--the most popular music now among millennials is rap and hip-hop, which concentrates more on fast rhymes than the actual musical content--the music is secondary to the vocals; the other problem is that music is "easy" to make now with computer programs, and I believe, paradoxically, a lack of constraints creates a lack of creativity. JGT has been making music since the DIY days of the 80s, and he has immeasurable more talent than the generations after him that seek to emulate more than they want to innovate. Whatever remains of rock music, for example--it is a sad shell of its former self.
@@TheDrapetomanic Hell yes, I agree on a lack of restraints to making music dumbs it all down for everyone. I thought rock music would continue in the 2010s. It started sucking come 2003, when I hit high school and kept going down. I am fully aware that rap is too poplar and mindless now. Hip-Hop from yesterday was much better with social messages and DJ's that did not phone it in. The other problem you failed to mentioned is either Modern Pop or Country. Not much innovation there either. Easily processed music is typically throwaway. There are Gen Y'ers like me who listen to the radio when near civilization, though it is of those with NPR connections and focus mostly on local/college stations that are indie or underground music only. Corporations are at fault for pushing garbage on the masses for too long. Why I do not need them. I have been using youtube since 2006 1 year shy of when the concept came around.
@@weinersmalls5684 yeah you're right, that's very Beatles! Tbh, I haven't listened much to his later stuff (by which I mean after Gash!) So that's my ignorance.
You may be a dead beat But don't be A dead beat on my street You leave your messes everywhere and Why must you insist on needlin' me? You feed the insecurity And hold us all to ransom Don't believe a word That you invented To torture yourself You enjoy the pain Enjoy the suffering That you impose On the world Don't think you're any good For me Or you Order the scrambled brains Order the scrambled brains Order the scrambled brains Order the scrambled brains Men with the paper slippers wait for you Just for you

He's always been an underestimated genius!
Thirlwell puts more talent and effort in one track than most put in their entire careers.
Very well said !
THE comment!!!!
Those who fly under the radar shine brighter than whatever charts on the corporate-owned radio these days.

This is the only Foetus track I've heard that has a Beatles feel to me.
check out Kamikaze then.

@@kienischneider9862 peace and love!
superb track
I dislike from a sad music critic that can't wrap their tiny brain around profound creative power.
JG do an anthem OMG1!!!!
dead bae
sounds like rocky horror show. pretty lame cabaret sound. better leave this up to van dyke parks.
no
You have no clue!
you are a dummy.
You may be a dead beat
But don't be
A dead beat on my street
You leave your messes everywhere and
Why must you insist on needlin' me?
You feed the insecurity
And hold us all to ransom
Don't believe a word
That you invented
To torture yourself
You enjoy the pain
Enjoy the suffering
That you impose
On the world
Don't think you're any good
For me
Or you
Order the scrambled brains
Order the scrambled brains
Order the scrambled brains
Order the scrambled brains
Men with the paper slippers wait for you
Just for you
i do like "farther along", you fucken dummy.
