[@codyoranchuk4714]

There's a reason I own two original pressings of this 7". It's a masterpiece.

[@SR-hq3gs]

Greg Sage❤is soon underrated...

[@RinchenSherab66]

[@Yos115]

Subbed! Thanks for an informative description

[@Yos115]

I really love wipers and only found them through Nirvana l

[@Rumpelstiltskins_Stinking_Fang]

Thats awful!

[@johnflushing9328]

So what... he's here now.

[@davidanchovies3340]

Most of their stuff was oop in the early 90s...now beautiful reissues are everywhere

[@DavidBruno]

This is why record labels and a captive distribution system need to be disrupted. Because I never heard this when I needed to. They were shipping me Boston and Chicago BS nonsense

[@terranloudenback2102]

Bruno had too much pruno

[@SuperSuperDuperNice]

I think they have been disrupted. It's 2023 and we are listening to music for free on youtube. 👽

[@koezkoez1939]

@@SuperSuperDuperNice yes,but rock music is dead now. it used to be a lifestyle that ruled your world, now its just another distraction. There is no culture. if you're not old enough to remember and you've done no research please don't reply "its still the same". You have no idea.

[@DirtySouthConnection803]

​@@koezkoez1939 Rock may be dead, in your head. Me and soo many others disagree. Rock N Roll is a state of mind, that will never die.

[@koezkoez1939]

so many of Sage's songs make more sense (and are that much sadder) after reading that Mark Lanegan book

[@kabukimanindahouse]

don't blindly believe everything you read. nobody knows the actual truth. it's just accusations at this point. i do believe he's gay though. but come on, the whole drummer story is just stupid. also the guy wasn't underage or anything, even if it was true.

[@William_Long]

@@kabukimanindahouse what made you think greg is gay? im curious

[@kabukimanindahouse]

@@William_Long notice how in every love song or song about it, he carefully avoided ever saying "she" or "he". In fact, it's kinda weird how much he avoids it. then there is also alot of singing about alienation, not fitting in, which could in some cases be interpreted that way of someone having to hide his "desires" or being made an outsider because of it. also with all that in mind some songs do make alot of sense, but those accusations in that book are dumb. it just says he hit on some drummer guy, who was younger, but not underage.

[@William_Long]

@@kabukimanindahouse I noticed it too, but my first thought was that he wrote it like that specifically so that the listener can fill in the gaps themselves, and then his alienation lyrics could be aimed at people around him; depressed people of Portland. Although you could be totally right

[@William_Long]

@@kabukimanindahouse and the groomer accusations, I don't buy it. Personally, I wouldn't take Lanegans word for it

[@nic-ci_66-77]

ALTERA HISTORIA DU ROCK

[@davidanchovies3340]

Nirvana shirwana

[@petesnik1282]

Kurt's favorite band

[@koezkoez1939]

*are* better ffs

[@tlc6912]

Isn't it weird that this album cover mirrors the Breakdown demo from 87? It might have been unintentionally done, but I do see a tribute.

[@robertcreighton4635]

Sweeeèeeèeeet

[@gasutrias9961]

😍

[@soyshulian]

why the cover is written with the spongebob font?

[@brunnofdo]

Why does Spongbob use the same font as in Wipers Alien Boy 's cover?

[@tripndub]

LOL

[@petesnik1282]

Do u mean why is SpongeBob written in Wipers font

[@kidkique]

Are these different mixes than what's found on the sub pop re-release?

[@junebuggy000]

Reminds me of digital black by king gizzard !

[@Rumpelstiltskins_Stinking_Fang]
