It starts: Old Jack was a millionaire/ and a lot of good it did him/ he died of an overdose/ just like a wino

The chorus is: some thing i can't get used to/some things I just can't get used to

FB&tC played it around during DITS tour (at least).

Is it a cover?

BLT - I dunno. Their 12" on Happy Squid wasn't all that great, but Mending Wall and Lite Life are fucking classics, Mystery Spot is pretty good, and Cry for Happy is pretty bleh (it has a really good instrumental on it that kind of sounds like Tossed).

Wasn't that the last one? They started out great (the 12" EP on Happy Squid) and progressively went south.

That song is called "Some Things I Can't Get Used To" by Angst. I think it's on the "Mending Wall" LP, though I could be wrong (haven't heard it for ages). Good band from San Francisco. I saw them play a few times.

I always wondered which band "Angst" was about:

"I stole some of your tricks
That night you came
In 1986
But who could blame me?

I copied all your licks
I was so spellbound

But I could not get a pound or an ounce of the feeling of angst
Feeling of angst

Been to the Mending Wall
I Cry For Happy
I found the Mystery Spot
I live the Lite Life
I think I'm gonna bomb
But you're not around

And I could not get a pound
Or an ounce of the feeling of angst
Feeling of angst

No I could not get a pound or an ounce of the feeling of angst"


Forget the cults I got me a whole church!

what what what? I just came back from Mars. What B-side compilation? Oddballs 2?

[edit] Oh wait i found it. Jesus Christ I never ventured before in part of the forum. If only the news page would be used to keep us up to date with the fuckin news.
billgoodman Posted - 09/07/2004 : 14:34:06
yes
by a band named Angst
they inspired frank a lot
(so he says)
he even tried to buy the rights to their songs
so he could bring it out on cd (SST wouldn't do that, said frank)
this all comes from a dutch interview I read

the song is recorded by the catholics in the DW-era and
is listed on the tracklist of one of the b-sides compilations
frank anounced here

"I joined the Cult of Serge/'Cause he invented indierock before Frank did"
