Seo Tai ji's "Livewire" is a great album. Gotta respect that guy...a real innovator and maverick in Korea. Quit school, yet went on to become famous writing very anti-establishment "rebel" songs. Played bass guitar in Shinawae at 17 years old.
He has had his share of plagarism accusations, but I think he's doing some really interesting and unique stuff. He is the only Korean "pop" singer (?) I hold any respect for at all.
I met him in Seoul twice...a very affable and charasmatic guy. His current drummer rocks. "Heffy end"...great tune. |

These kinds of topics are frequented by those with certain tastes of "cool" music, but anyways, I'll bite. The nineties musicwise for me were essentially about female vocalists:
HM: Jewel Kilcher's Pieces of You, Tori Amos' Little Earthquakes, Ani Difranco's 1990 debut album, Sheryl Crow's self-titled album mid-decade. (And some jazz and classical music albums/compositions I'd heard for the first time, but not at all indicative of the decade I guess.)
It helped that I spent most of the decade listening to music with one girlfriend or another, in college and later out, and believe me when I say I have many FOND memories of these albums.
(I never did get the guy band thing. Guys listening to guys sing about not having women and beating up other guys.) |

Although I have a soft spot in my cold, barren heart for Ultraman, I cannot forgive him for ripping off Cypress Hill (right down to the nasal vocals of B-Real) and Rage Against the Machine.

Fair enough... but the K-music scene was built on biting other people's music and nobody did it better than Seo Tae Ji !
If you liked Siamese Dream or the 'shoegazing' sound, you should check out his first solo album. |

Didn't Josh Freese make a cameo in a few of the Taiji Boys albums? |
No...at Taiji isn't listed under any of his collaborations. I like Taiji, but Freese wouldn't fit into that band at all.
This was a great CD as well, with Freese showing his usual brilliance on "Pillow of your bones". |
