You know that's kind of funny? Before this thread, as you can see from my above comment, I wasn't a fan of Beat Happening at all. I always kind of viewed them as doing the same things Half Japanese did but not as good and 8 or so years later. After seeing all you're responses, I realized maybe I unfairly judged them. I then downloaded some of thier live stuff and "Jamboree", and realized what an idiot I am for not having loved them for all these years. This is the type of thing that I love; extremly lo-fi Punk music with melodies buried underneath tons of poor production. The songs on "Jamboree" sound so honest, and the music so basic and elemental, it's a record one could listen to a thousand times and not get sick of. So, I am glad to say I'm not a fan of Beat Happening, partly because of this thread. Times like these make me realize why I post on message boards in the first place (besides the fact I'm a huge nerd).
