Urgh, this is what I hate about PD.com, it is the only site in existence where a perfectly good spam thread can be misused for high quality discussions.  I hate you all.

I decided to clean up some old tapes I had made off the radio in my youth; by which I mean, I typed the song titles into youtube, and listened to them that way.  I couldn't be bothered to hook up the tape deck, even if it works.
Much of my taste in music in those days was utter garbage, but there were some pretty good tracks, too.
Anyway, this listening binge caused youtube's algorithm to make a recommendation of a band from that period that I hadn't even heard of, but which I liked almost immediately.

Here are some tracks by "Faith No More".

How in the fuck did you not know Faith No More? They were fucking inescapable when I was a child.
"I am that worst of all type of criminal...I cannot bring myself to do what you tell me, because you told me."

There's over 100 of us in this meat-suit. You'd think it runs like a ship, but it's more like a hundred and ten angry ghosts having an old-school QuakeWorld tournament, three people desperately trying to make sure the gamers don't go hungry or soil themselves, and the Facilities manager weeping in the corner as the garbage piles high.

Yeah, that one song was on every 6 seconds.

You mean the one that was in like twelve hit movies in 1998? Because I remember it from being on every soundtrack cassette my mother bought more than I remember it for being on all the radio (though it was definitely there too).

Lord. I can STILL hear the whiny punchable smug voice. Patton at his worst.

Here it is, CNO. If you don't immediately break out in fucking hives when you hear this then you somehow actually avoided Faith No More. And I can't believe it.

Fair warning: /I/ find this song intolerable. Me. It is difficult for me to believe it had any fucking popularity at all.

I don't know what to say.  As far as I can recall, I first heard that track a week or so ago while I was skimming their discography, and probably skipped past it after a minute or two.  It doesn't do anything for me.

...that song was popular, you say?  Huh.

Mind you, in high-school (mid-nineties), someone once asked me if I liked the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and discovered I had never heard of them, either.  I thought he was talking about actual peppers.  I grew up in a classical-music-only household, so my musical knowledge has some... gaps.  I have an intense dislike for Mozart that lingers to this day, and if Eine kleine nachtmusik is played in my presence, blood will be shed.

That's how I feel about Epic. It was literally everywhere in the 90s and early 2000s: every third commercial (especially beer commercials), every radio station, every fucking movie made for a full goddamn decade. If you had any sort of connection to alternative music or paid attention to any music in pop culture, you were drowning in it.

To be clear, I don't know a single person who actually LIKED that song. It was just every fucking where, all the fucking time. Since you grew up in an all classical music household, if you are about my age then you lucked out by pure chance because no human being on God's green earth has listened to it in 20 years. It was everywhere for YEARS and then overnight it disappeared. THANK FUCK.
