Some Portuguese Deftones fans have expressed that they believe the song is intending to describe someone so beautiful and captivating that she can put a man under her "spell," leaving him at her complete control. As songwriter Chino Moreno explains: "The name Feiticeira is some Portuguese name that I read in a magazine and just liked. It's based on the scenario of being taken captive. It's completely fictional. I want that people who listen to it feel like they are the ones in the situation. Because of that I sing it in first person. It's up to people to figure out if i'm having fun (with them) or not, even though it sounds a bit eerie." - Moreno, White Pony, Wikipedia (Accessed Aug 24, 2023) fun facts rock,fun facts rock music,fun facts about rock albums,10 Fun Facts About White Pony by Deftones,10 Things You Didn't Know About Deftones White Pony,Deftones Fun Facts,Deftones,Chino Moreno,Chi Cheng,Abe Cunningham,Stephen Carpenter,Frank Delgado,fun facts rock albums,Deftones White pony,white pony full album,deftones change,deftones back to school,fun facts music,white pony,SONG MEANING Deftones Feiticeira,feiticeira explained,who is feiticeira

The band were interested in bringing in a fresh perspective to help them navigate some difficulties they were having while writing the album. Rather than come in and take over the project with his years of musical experience and expertise, Maynard instead played a role more similar to that of a spiritual mentor. Bringing bottles of champagne and Tibetan Singing Bowls to the studio to shake things up. He also made the band perform using different instruments in an attempt to stir their creativity and break them out of their respective ruts."I was told the guys were having a bit of writer's block or some turmoil within the band. Who knows? They certainly weren't going to discuss that with me, an almost total stranger... very strong-willed gents. Dare I say stubborn... Up to that point, they seemed to have been able to navigate through their differences in ideas and approaches. Great first efforts. The evidence is all there. I felt like they just needed a bit of new perspective.I had them each switch instruments, play on the bowls, take one loop and try some improvisation... The look on their faces was priceless. I might as well have been wearing hippie beads and bunny ears. I could just feel Stephen thinking, 'What kind of acid-trip crap is this?'""I stuck around long enough for them to start itching to not have me around... Eventually, it was time for me to let them be. The result of my interruption was for them to unconsciously remember or feel what connected them in the first place. By the time I saw them again, they had opened their own creative floodgates." - Keenan, Inside Deftones Game-Changing Alt-Metal Masterpiece, Steve Appleford, Revolver (Nov 23, 2020) - https://www.revolvermag.com/music/white-pony-inside-deftones-game-changing-alt-metal-masterpiece fun facts rock,fun facts rock music,fun facts about rock albums,10 Fun Facts About White Pony by Deftones,10 Things You Didn't Know About Deftones White Pony,Deftones Fun Facts,Deftones,Chino Moreno,Chi Cheng,Abe Cunningham,Stephen Carpenter,Frank Delgado,fun facts rock albums,Deftones White pony,white pony full album,fun facts music,white pony,Maynard James Keenan HELPS Deftones,Passenger Deftones Maynard James Keenan,deftones passenger,maynard passenger

What Is Scentless Apprentice? Have you ever met a man who had no scent? Well, meet Jean-Baptiste Grenouille, the main character of Patrick Suskind's Purfume. A novel that Kurt Cobain enjoyed so much that he wrote a song about it. The book centers on a strange figure, an odorless man who serves as a perfumer's assistant and has a sadistic hobby of killing virgins in order to steal their scent.

Ok, so that fee was $100,000 dollars which is no small amount to an average person. But considering that the album would go on to sell well over 15 million copies, $100k is chump change compared to what he could have collected with even a mere 1% cut. Albini felt that it would be unethical to demand a percentage of royalties from the band, especially considering that Nirvana intended to produce a "minimalistic" album with very little input from anyone who wasn't named Kurt, David, or Krist. Even going so far as to say “I think paying a royalty to a producer or engineer is ethically indefensible” in a four page proposal he sent to the band when requesting to work on the album.As the producer himself explains:“All of the people that were carping at the band from the outside about what a mistake they’d made with this record, that pretty accurately represented what they wanted to do with their music… all of those people [are] parasites... They weren’t involved in making the record. They want, somehow or another, to claim authorship of the creative output of these other people who are actually doing the heavy lifting for their career. I can’t have any respect for somebody like that, who’s not involved in the creative process but then decides that they wanna snipe at it from the outside and manipulate people into doing things to suit them.

However, bandmates encouraged him to reconsider changing the title to something less likely to get the band sued. So Kurt borrowed the "motherly" phrase In Utero from a poem written by his wife Courtney Love. Nevermind the irony of "borrowing" a title from a person like Courtney Love in order to *not* get sued, but anyway... In regards to the morbidly depressing original title, Kurt described it as self-deprecating humor when he spoke with Rolling Stone in a 1994 interview: “As literal as a joke can be. Nothing more than a joke. And that had a bit to do with why we decided to take it off. We knew people wouldn’t get it; they’d take it too seriously. It was totally satirical, making fun of ourselves. I’m thought of as this pissy, complaining, freaked–out schizophrenic who wants to **** himself all the time... And I thought it was a funny title. I wanted it to be the title of the album for a long time. But I knew the majority of the people wouldn’t understand it... That pretty much defines our band. It’s both those contradictions. It’s satirical, and it’s serious at the same time.” - Cobain, Success Doesn't Suck, David Fricke, Rolling Stone (Jan 27, 1994) fun facts rock,fun facts rock music,fun facts about rock albums,fun facts rock albums,fun facts music,nirvana,kurt cobain,david grohl,krist novoselic,steve albini,fun facts about nirvana,fun facts about in utero,in utero,in utero full album,nirvana lyrics,in utero lyrics,in utero song meanings,nirvana song meanings,nirvana albums,nirvana unplugged,nirvana heart shaped box,i hate myself and i want to die,courtney love,alternate album title,cobain

Well, Kurt Cobain did, and he brought his treasured memento to the studio one day to share with In Utero producer Steve Albini. As Steve explains:"When my band Big Black did a farewell tour years before the In Utero sessions, the final show was in some industrial space in Seattle... It was in a weird building with a makeshift stage. It was a cool gig and at end we smashed up all of our gear. I distinctively recall some kid asking me if he could take a piece of my guitar off the stage and me saying ‘go ahead its garbage now.’“Many years later when we were working on In Utero at the studio in Minnesota, Kurt showed me this little piece of this guitar that he had saved. He had brought it with him after all those years.

However, the moody singer did have moments of gratitude regarding the impact his music had on the younger generation.As he told Spin in 1993: “I really miss being able to blend in with people... It’s just been lately that I could even handle being recognized... One guy came up, smacked me on the back, and said, ‘Hey, man, you got a good thing going, just get rid of your pissy attitude. Get off the drugs and just f****** go for it man...There were these, like, ten-year-old kids at a Butthole Surfers concert. They had green hair, they were skater punks who had made their own T-shirts with their favorite bands written on them. I could tell we had some kind of impact on them, and so had punk rock, because they didn’t want autographs. They just wanted to shake our hands and say thanks.

Or why producer Steve Albini insist that he take 0% of the album's royalty sales? Why did Kurt agree to change a song title to satisfy major retail stores when he was always so against the corporate music industry? Stick around as we answer these questions and more, on...10 Fun Facts About In Utero by Nirvana10 Things You Didn't Know About Nirvana In Utero1. First TakeKurt Cobain sang most of the lyrics on In Utero in one take and the entire album was produced in only 14 days because Nirvana wanted to release something raw and spontaneous as a follow up to their polished and pre-meditated album Nevermind. The band also elected to work with producer Steve Albini because Cobain was a fan of the primitive sound on Albini produced albums such as Surfer Rosa by the Pixies or Pod by The Breeders.As Albini himself explains:"The bulk of the record Kurt sang in one sitting. He sat with this broken acoustic guitar on his lap and had me play the songs back to him and he would strum along on this acoustic guitar and sing the songs. That was exactly the way he wanted to present it." Drummer David Grohl would also explain that In Utero can be difficult for him to listen to, due to the raw and personal nature of the album: “Obviously In Utero was a direct response to the success and sound of Nevermind. We just pushed ourselves in the other direction, like, “Oh really, that's what you like? Well, here's what we're going to f****** do now!” But it is a hard album for me to listen to from front to back. Because it's so real, and because it's such an accurate representation of the band at the time, it brings back other memories, it kinda makes my skin crawl... I don't spend a lot of time thinking back on things I've done. But In Utero, man, what a trip." 2. The Simon Ritchie Band Nirvana and producer Steve Albini wanted to record In Utero in a place where they wouldn't be surrounded by screaming fans trying to intrude on their workspace or be tempted by nearby "shenanigans." Even going so far as to book the studio under a fake name to avoid anybody leaking the news that a major rock band was going to be recording their next album in the area.“It was far enough away from anybody that the band knew socially, and we wouldn’t have a f****** TV crew out front every day or any drug dealers trying to do business...

However, Serj Tankian would improvise a new set of opening lyrics which have since become iconic. The original lyrics read: “Tell me/Tell me what you think about tomorrow/Is there gonna be a pain and sorrow/Tell me what you think about the people/Is there gonna be another sequel?" Which became the nonsensical lines we are more familiar with: “Wake up/Grab a brush and put a little make-up.” ...and you know the rest. Serj would also improvise the lyrics "father unto thy hands I commend my spirit" when he grabbed a random book in Rick Rubin's studio and flipped to a random page for inspiration during a bout of writer's block. That book was the Bible. As for the meaning of the song, Daron would explain: “It occurred to me how we are judgemental towards people, even in death... If someone died in a car accident, you'd say, 'Oh, poor thing.' But if they died in a car accident while they were drunk, that would change your whole perception of how they died, and judging his or her death a in a different way. For some reason, that thought was weird to me. I was probably smoking weed or something…” - Malakian, 10 Things You Didn't Know About Chop Suey, Dave Everley, Metal Hammer (Mar 6, 2021) 10 Fun Facts About Toxicity System Of A Down,Fun Facts Rock,Fun Facts Rock Music,System Of A Down Fun Facts,SOAD Fun Facts,System of a Down Songs,System Of A Down Toxicity,Toxicity Full Album,System Of A Down Chop Suey,system of a down lyrics,system of a down interview,daron malakian interview,toxicity lyrics,system of a down,serj tankian,soad,Original Lyrics for Chop Suey,Chop Suey Lyrics,Chop Suey Explained,Chop Suey Alternate Lyrics,toxicity,toxic city

And that's alright. If you sting me, I won't mind." Some have speculated whether the Deftones song "Rx Queen" is about an individual with a serious illness who requires lots of medication and that the narrator of the song has fallen in love with, or if it describes the addictive nature of a toxic relationship. No explanation has ever been officially offered but singer Chino Moreno has allegedly stated that the song is about his wife.What we can confirm, is that the late and legendary former front man of Stone Temple pilots, Scott Weiland, makes an uncredited cameo appearance. Adding some improvized vocal harmonies to the chorus.As vocalist Chino Moreno explains:“The way it happened was pretty organic... I met up with him at a studio in Burbank and I was playing him some of the rough music and he pulled out a microphone and started doing his Scott Weiland scatting stuff over it. Then he started kind of harmonizing with me on the chorus, singing this lower register melody...I was like, ‘Wow, that sounds pretty cool,’ and he was like, ‘Yeah, you can re-sing it if you want..." But then we mixed the record, I said, ‘His voice sounds kind of good on there...’ If you listen hard enough, you can totally hear his timbre and the way that he sings. I mean, it’s totally him.

The concept was created by Deftones singer Chino Moreno along with bassist Chi Cheng after they were unimpressed with any of the potential ideas others had pitched to them. Not wanting to film a stereotypical video of the band performing with a bunch of rowdy fans or skateboarders in the background, Chino wanted to film something a bit more personal, even offering to film the video in his own house. As he told Kerrang: "We got a ton of video treatments sent to us and they were all pretty much over-artsy, trying to take us out of our element... Or they were just straight up silly, basically having us perform and having all these skateboarders and s*** like that. Everything was either too complicated or too easy. So I just ended up writing my own treatment with Chi. The label sent it out to Nigel Dick, the director. I wanted to have performance in it, but not be us on a stage with a bunch of kids with tattoos and piercings stage-diving. I don't think we need that. And at the same time we don't need us in a desert dressed in Gucci clothing trying to look weird. I figure if we film at my house it's pretty much us, so it's a true sense of what we do." - Moreno, A Deep Dive Into Deftones' Change..., Mike Rampton, Kerrang (May 25, 2019) - https://www.kerrang.com/a-deep-dive-into-deftones-change-in-the-house-of-flies-video The video would not be shot at Chino's house and was instead filmed at a mansion in Hollywood Hills. “The concept behind the video is a never-ending party, going on for three days or so – a wild, exotic, indulgent party. The band doesn’t seem to be the primary focus.” - Frank Delgado, A Deep Dive Into Deftones' Change..., Mike Rampton, Kerrang (May 25, 2019) - https://www.kerrang.com/a-deep-dive-into-deftones-change-in-the-house-of-flies-video One of the models who performed in the video also offered this explanation: “The whole premise is like we’ve been up on drugs for three days.” - Change Video Model, A Deep Dive Into Deftones' Change..., Mike Rampton, Kerrang (May 25, 2019) - https://www.kerrang.com/a-deep-dive-into-deftones-change-in-the-house-of-flies-video fun facts rock,fun facts rock music,fun facts about rock albums,Deftones Fun Facts,Deftones,Chino Moreno,Chi Cheng,Abe Cunningham,Stephen Carpenter,Frank Delgado,fun facts rock albums,Deftones White pony,white pony full album,deftones change in the house of flies,fun facts music,white pony,Deftones Change In The House Of Flies Music Video EXPLAINED,deftones change,Change In The House Of Flies Video Explained,house of flies explained,deftones explained

However, after the band invite Maynard to work on the album as a musical mentor, he improvised some lines over their music while front-man Chino Moreno had stepped out of the studio. While Maynard only intended to illustrate an example for a different songwriting approach, the band loved what Maynard was doing and asked him to be part of the final song. “It’s amazing that he wants to work with us... what an honor... He never intended to sing on anything. He just wanted to see how we wrote and give us ideas about how Tool does things... So we went down to work with him, and we already had the music for “Passenger” done. We were playing (while) Chino was out getting a beer or something... Maynard was listening and he said, “Why put things in 4/4 when you can go 3/4 or 7/8 or something like that?” And then he just grabbed the mike and started singing... And Chino had come back at that point, so they started trading off and doing their thing. We didn’t ever really intend to use Maynard on the new album, because every band is like,“Okay, here’s our token celebrity guest appearance, our celebrity crutch for the album.” We didn’t really want to go that route. But when we actually recorded it, we couldn’t get Maynard out of our heads. And I said, “Look, dude, just call Maynard and ask him to come in and do the song.” So Maynard came in for two days: wrote, recorded, done.” - Chi, White Pony (Song Secrets). Deftones World (accessed Aug 24, 2023) "Having Maynard perform on the record wasn’t something that we planned on doing. We didn’t plan on having any guest on the record. But being a fan of Tool and A Perfect Circle, once Maynard was involved, it was just a magical thing for us. Honestly, when he first started working with us, he wasn’t supposed to sing with us. He was just working on the arrangements, riff structures, time signatures, and things like that. I don’t know if you’re a big fan of Tool’s music, but they’re really mathematical. I’ve been to their rehearsal space, and there’s this big chart that just looks like calculus–the way they write songs, it’s just crazy. It was good to have someone else who has different ways of writing songs, ’cause everyone has a different way of doing it. He came in and we started working on this one song in particular, and he just grabbed the microphone and started singing along to it, and my jaw just dropped. All of a sudden our band sounded like Tool; it was just crazy. Then, probably two months later, we went in to record the album, and I went in to record the vocals on it, and I just kept hearing his voice, this re-occurring melody with his voice coming over it. So I called him and asked him if he wanted to come down and sing on the record, and he had no problem with it. Once he came in, I gave him sort of what I wanted the song to be about, and he wrote a couple of ideas down, and the next day he came in with all the lyrics written all out with blank spaces where my lyrics were supposed to be. He’s very professional like that. He wants everything set perfectly, which is the complete opposite to the way that I write, so it was cool. And then I went in and did my vocals over it, and it just seemed that our voices blended together pretty good... so we decided to put it on the record.” - Chino, White Pony (Song Secrets).

It's a plane! It's... a fly? Many people have speculated upon the meaning of the Deftones hit song "Change (In The House Of Flies)."With lines such as "I watched a change in you" and "I pulled off your wings and I laughed" the overall feeling is that the song may describe a person who watches someone they once admired turn in to something much worse that they no longer recognize, all while feeling deep down that it was their own fault. Some fans have alluded the song to a feeling of incidentally watching a friend spiral downward through a drug-addiction while knowing that it was themselves who introduced the substance to the person in the first place.The song may also borrow imagery inspired by The Fly, a 1986 horror film starring Jeff Goldblum where a scientist fuses his DNA with that of a common housefly and gradually turns in to grotesque and ugly creature while all his girlfriend can do is watch helplessly as this man she once admired deteriorates far beyond either of their desires. Spoiler alert, but she's forced to help her boyfriend end his own life at the end of the film when both of them realize he has changed far too much and is suffering as a result.While Deftones singer Chino Moreno has never given a direct translation of the lyrics, he has offered this explanation for the song as a whole:“It’s a metaphorical song. You could take it in the literal sense of me watching someone turn into a fly and taking them home with me and pulling off their wings and laughing. It spawns from me being a complete asshole and getting the complete repercussion for it by having my life taken away.” - Moreno, A Deep Dive Into Deftones' Change..., Mike Rampton, Kerrang (May 25, 2019) - https://www.kerrang.com/a-deep-dive-into-deftones-change-in-the-house-of-flies-videoFor anyone else seeking a deeper knowledge or meaning of the song, bassist Chi Cheng offers this explanation:“Nobody knows what it’s about except for Chino,” - Chi Cheng, A Deep Dive Into Deftones' Change..., Mike Rampton, Kerrang (May 25, 2019) - https://www.kerrang.com/a-deep-dive-into-deftones-change-in-the-house-of-flies-video fun facts rock,fun facts rock music,fun facts about rock albums,Deftones Fun Facts,Deftones,Chino Moreno,Deftones White pony,white pony full album,deftones change in the house of flies,deftones change,white pony,SONG MEANING Deftones Change In The House Of Flies,change in the house of flies explained,change in the house of flies meaning,what does change in the house of flies mean,deftones change lyrics,deftones change live,change in the house of flies live

Singer Chino Moreno was initially apprehensive because the label hadn't even given any other tracks aside from "Change (In The House Of Flies)" a chance to stand on their own. He eventually decided to cave in and re-worked their song "Pink Maggit" to feel more like a stereotypical 2000s era chart topping rap-rock radio hit. Chino does not regret the decision but he did feel a bit dismayed when the label reissued White Pony with the remixed track included on the album. The band felt like this threw off their intended flow for the album as a whole but they were still happy with the remixed song as a standalone track.As Chino explains:“They wanted a second single and they didn’t think there were any more on the record. I said, ‘Well how do you know, because you haven’t tried with any others?’ I remember them sitting me down and pointing me out Papa Roach and Linkin Park had sold 6 million albums while we hadn’t sold a tenth of that. To me, they were saying they wanted some rap-rock, and at the time I was already way over making music like that... my response was no way at first, and then they pointed out the chorus of ‘Pink Maggit’ was so great, so they asked me to rewrite it as a three-minute song. They kept hounding me about so I was like ‘Watch this’, because formulaic songs are so easy to write...In one day I rewrote the music and the lyrics, we recorded and then I said ‘Is that what you were talking about?’ And then they said they were going to release it with a video, they were going to get Paul Hunter who directed Eminem videos to do it, so at that point I was like ‘Whatever, I’ll trust you, I don’t care’. When a record company gets behind you like that it’s hard to say no, because the years prior they wouldn’t give us the time of day. So the fact they wanted to push things and pay for things was great. I look back on it now and I don’t regret it – it’s not a terrible song – but the only thing I made a point on was that when it came to do the reissue, they reissued the original record without that song on. It came out and it did what it did.” - Moreno, How 'White Pony' Almost Killed Us, Ben Patashnik, RockSound.tv (Nov 15, 2010) - https://web.archive.org/web/20101121102125/https://rocksound.tv/features/article/deftones-how-white-pony-almost-killed-us fun facts rock,fun facts rock music,fun facts about rock albums,10 Fun Facts About White Pony by Deftones,10 Things You Didn't Know About Deftones White Pony,Deftones Fun Facts,Deftones,Chino Moreno,Chi Cheng,Abe Cunningham,Deftones White pony,white pony full album,deftones pink maggit,mini maggit,deftones back to school,fun facts music,white pony,SONG MEANING Deftones Back To School Mini Maggit EXPLAINED,song meanings mini maggit,mini maggit explained

Or that a popular DJ confused them with the Mighty Mighty Bosstones? What about the unintended consequences of inviting Tool front-man Maynard James Keenan to mentor the band in the studio? Stick around as we answer these questions and more, on... 10 Fun Facts About White Pony By Deftones 1. Tension Tensions developed between Deftones singer Chino Moreno and guitarist Stephen Carpenter while working on White Pony when Chino began playing guitar, encroaching on Stephen's creative territory. However, drummer Abe Cunningham states that Chino only did so out of necessity because Stephen moved miles away, preventing Abe and Chino from being able to collaborate with him in the early phase of the writing process. As Abe explains: “It was a bit of a tense time, looking back now it was a good time but at that particular point Stephen had moved down to LA – we were always based out of Sacramento – and that was the first time Chino had picked up a guitar, so he and I started working on a lot of material knowing we had to make a record. And later we all worked on it together... We wanted to add some more electronic sounds and Frank’s textures were way more prominent on all the songs – he was more of a guest on the first two records... and the whole guitar thing with Chino, that was the start of a huge animosity and tension between him and Steph that’s been well publicised over the years. That stemmed from Chino picking up the guitar, but it’s also because Stephen kinda left, he moved out and so we did what we needed to do. I still think that record is our best attempt at trying to meld all the sounds we like into one. It turned out alright… All being said, it was more brotherly bickering and it was very unified at the time. We had a common goal – I don’t think we thought about it too hard.”- Cunningham, How 'White Pony' Almost Killed Us, Ben Patashnik, RockSound.tv (Nov 15, 2010) 2. Album Art While many people believe that the term "White Pony" is a reference to drug use, the band actually had a different concept in mind when Chino adapted the minimalist clip art that he found on the internet to use as the symbol for their next album cover. "There's a lot of different references for White Pony... One of them is a cocaine reference... Have you ever heard stuff like in dream books that if you dream about a white pony then you're having a sexual dream? There's a lot of stuff that kinda goes around it. And then there's an old song (that goes) 'ride the white horse.' That's obviously a drug reference song." - Moreno, Deftones: The Complete Guide, Wikipedians, pg 49, (Unknown Year)(accessed through Google Books) - fun facts rock,fun facts rock music,fun facts about rock albums,10 Fun Facts About White Pony by Deftones,10 Things You Didn't Know About Deftones White Pony,Deftones Fun Facts,Deftones,Chino Moreno,Chi Cheng,Abe Cunningham,Stephen Carpenter,Frank Delgado,fun facts rock albums,Deftones White pony,white pony full album,deftones change in the house of flies,deftones change,deftones pink maggit,mini maggit,deftones back to school,fun facts music,white pony

This version features updated text formating for easier viewing and a few jokes have been re-arranged for better placement. 10 THINGS YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT PRESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA SELF TITLED ALBUM PUSA 1995 Self Titled Did you know that the hit song "Peaches" by Presidents of the United States was written all because of a random trip to a Seattle bus-stop? Or that lyrics to one of the band's biggest hits were inspired by a time lead singer Chris Ballew took acid? What about the music video that MTV refused to play because it was too "dark and disturbing? Stick around as we answer these questions and more! 1. Five Strings The band performs with just 5 strings on their guitars. No, I don't mean the guitarist simply removed a strong and called himself Keith Richards, I mean they collectively play with just 5 strings among the entire band! Chris Ballew on what he calls the two-string "bassitar" and Dave Dederer on the three-string guitbass "Between Dave and I, we have five strings, and you can make the most complicated chord in the world with five strings... We just have to cooperate with each other." - Chris Ballew; Weird Lyrics Come Naturally To The Presidents, Brooks Whitney, Chicago Tribune (May 10, 1996) "By now, I am so used to playing two string instruments that I don’t remember the headspace I had when I wrote on regular instruments! It just seems completely natural now. In fact, I wonder why people don’t actually just learn on a two string or three string. It’s so much easier! I have also come to learn about the origins of rock and roll music and the African banjo... The idea of using fewer strings connects what we do back in time to the roots of rock n roll in Africa." - Chris Ballew; Interview With Chris Ballew.., Will Hodge, NoiseTrade (Apr 9, 2013) 2. Anti-Grunge The band intentionally wrote humorous material to brighten up the mood of the rock scene which was dominated by moody grunge acts like Nirvana and Pearl Jam. "I’ve been making silly music my whole life. I’ve also been making serious music as well. I have a lot of different colors in my paint box. But I do remember a distinct feeling that the scene needed to be lightened up a little bit and so it felt like it was time to bring out my silly stuff and see if it would be well received in that environment. I do remember watching the MTV Music Awards in 1992 or 1993 and thinking that the scene needed a little bit of a smile." - Chris Ballew; Interview With Chris Ballew.., Will Hodge, NoiseTrade (Apr 9, 2013) 3. Inspired by Buzzcocks "Lump" was partially inspired by The Buzzcocks. "In the beginning, it was me trying to write a Buzzcocks song. I guess I still channel them a little bit whenever I play it." - Chris Ballew; Interview With Chris Ballew.., Will Hodge, NoiseTrade (Apr 9, 2013) 4. Energizer Presidents They keep going and going and going... OK, young people have no idea what I'm talking referencing here ... but Chris Ballew and Dave Dederer never get tired of performing the band's breakthrough hit "Lump." "No matter how many times we play it (and we have played it at almost every single show we’ve ever played), it is as fresh and as alive as if I just wrote it that afternoon. I am not sure what it is, but I am never bored playing that song." - Chris Ballew; Interview With Chris Ballew.., Will Hodge, NoiseTrade (Apr 9, 2013) "Never got tired of the songs, esp. "Lump." Every night is different, every stage is different, every crowd is different." - Dave Dederer; IamA Has Been Rockstar.., Reddit (2010) 5. Dark & Disturbing MTV refused to play the original music video for "Lump" because it was allegedly considered "too dark & disturbing." While I definitely think that calling the content of the music video "disturbing" is a bit of a Karen move, I will also admit that re-doing the video with brighter and more colorful imagery was a good thing. fun facts rock,fun facts rock music,fun facts about rock albums,fun facts rock albums,pusa band,presidents of the usa band,presidents of the united states of america,kitty song,peaches song,moving to the country going to eat a lot of peaches,pusa peaches,lump song,pusa lump,presidents lump,presidents peaches,presidents rock band,presidents rock,presidents band,pusa kitty,chris ballew,dave dederer,guitbass,bassitar,basitar,5 strings,pusa interview
