Hit: 1 Stars
Some folks in this world are blessed with a voice which is a pleasure to listen to. Just to hear 'em talk. They could sell ice to Eskimos. I'm not joking. I'm not exaggerating. They got it. They could sing the phonebook and you'd clap along. They tell a stupid story and it sounds like a parable. When I think of this kind of person, I think Joe Strummer. Now that was a talkin' voice if I ever heard one.
Now on the other hand, there's the folks who likes the sound of their OWN voice. Lots of 'em also suffer from Competitive Talk Disorder. I used to play softball with a fella who would interrupt any one of my fleeting nuggets of wisdom with a tale that was 10 times louder, if not 10 times better. He drank strictly Belgian Lambics, and only wore clothes made of lycra, if that tells ya anything about his tendencies.
Now to get to my point, Harry Rollins certainly falls into the category of somebody who loves the sound of his own voice. Quite frankly I'm tired of his talkin' and his ideas. Even though this is supposed to be funny, the basic premise is that everybody's an idiot and we all love the sound of his voice as much as he does. Well, he's got half of that one right because this sucker has sold a lot of CD's!
Think Tank (Spoken Word) Poster
For his DreamWorks debut, spoken-word artiste Henry Rollins turns the funny-dude charm way up on 13 jocular monologues. Recorded live at 1997 and 1998 gigs in Chicago and Australia, Think Tank presents a far lighter side than Rollins previously has recorded. He shows another side here, one different from the counterculture icon--the guy with so much pain, he had to tattoo it all over his body and scream it out through rad punk tunes as the human throat for Black Flag and the Rollins Band--and, surprisingly, the lighter Rollins isn't Rollins Lite. The 30-something performer has found his ultimate calling as a caring but angry ?ber-punk who's on your side in the fight against evil. Channeling his rage into prosaic humor, Rollins details the really big problems of life (homophobia, lyrics to Journey songs, racism, vegetarians) and small everyday bummers (the cast of Friends, idiots everywhere, fax machines) alongside detailed postcards from the rock-star life. --Mike McGonigalAlternative Rock Music CDs
