Labs has already mentioned it but Freak on a Leash by Korn is exceptional.
I have enormous affection for Intergalactic by the Beastie Boys, just because of their refusal to take matters remotely seriously, bearing in mind they were one of the biggest bands in the world at the time.
And whatever the fuck Taylor Swift did that got Kanye West so angry. Just because. The Single Ladies video isn't THAT good, mate. It would have been, if it had a) been all one take and b) featured better dancers.

My point is that professional dancers should have been able to make it look better. They had to dance below themselves in order to not embarrass Beyonce, whose entire repertoire of moves involves the aforementioned booty-popping

could it be shortened to "no mistake's too great"

I would anticipate a follow-up based on the idea that what they had said was "no mistakes too great..."

"No mistakes too great" sounds like you're about to follow it up with some sort of poncey witticism. To truncate "no mistake is too great" as you did is theoretically correct, I just wouldn't use it myself

It is Sabotage I'm thinking of, isn't it?

Sabotage has some badly-disguised Beastie Boys being tough 80's cops with ludicrous stage names
(, Wed 13 Apr 2011, 15:38, Reply)
but I can't remember any of it. Much like you with the 90's, I daresay.
You've done better in this respect, the 90's were fucking awful.

as my mate is a huge Beastie fan and has a poster for Sabotage on his wall. On the flipside he's made us watch their video collection repeatedly and I'm usually drunk by that point.

I had to watch a live show of theirs on DVD at my brother's once. Time I'll never have again, thanks >brother's name<.
At one point there was a flying keyboard 'station', I recall. It was gayer than Howard Jones bumming Jan Hammer whilst flying about in Tommy Lee's (fucking embarrassing) flying drumkit.
Plus the vocalist is a massive turd, and they were all dressed up like a cross between HR Giger and Camden Market on a wet Saturday. These are adults.
Bent.

As the only people who attend and watch Ballroom Dancing practices or competitions are people who enjoy watching Ballroom Dancing. And there isn't a huge DVD market for the same.

I didn't actually hear much of the music. Being too busy fighting to keep my feet at the front

Maybe they were having an 'off night' when they recorded the DVD at massive expense because whilst their stage set was undeniably impressive, the music was fucking rubbish. Silly roaring vocals and a desperate attempt to sound extreme but with bent keyboards that dragged their sound closer to ‘The Final Countdown’ than to someone genuinely hardcore-sounding like, I don't know...Slayer.

He is perhaps the world's greatest expert on late 60s/early 70s British heavy psych/prog rock and had my mate not discovered them a week before would have been the man who first recommended Tractor to me.
He has his own label now, doing 'doom' and 'drone' stuff...

Sadly, not a touch on Napalm Death, whose bassist is fucking massive.

I've been told that they fit into that category of bands whose live presence is so impressive that any quibbles with the quality of song is irrelevant. Like And One.
