Could there, should there be another Never Mind The Bollocks?

This record hasn't aged one day since the first time I heard it.

I believe I could musically survive with this, Jim Carroll's Catholic Boy, and streaming on the Neil Young Archives site.

 

One is enough. I haven't played it in decades.

 

Soooo, one is enough for you.

 

You are correct, sir! Or Madam!

 

One is enough for everybody. Guaranteed.

 

I'm gender fluid

 

As your glamor shot suggests!

 

What we need is another something else that bursts onto the scene & creates another era in rock. Something new & exciting in an auto tuned world of dull same old same old.

 

The perfect reply. I 100% agree with this.

 

I'm convinced that rock is done. Finished in terms of cultural relevance. The next Never Mind The Bollocks will be a hip hop album that my 59 yo self won't even notice.

 

There has been already, it was called It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back.

 

Hip Hop as a cultural relevance has had its day, been & gone.

It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back. 1988. 30+ years sgo

 

I'm not sure I understand your question. Do you mean "will there be another album that doesn't age?" Or are you talking about cultural impact (which in this case is somewhat embellished over time)?

 

Can’t believe ‘Never Mind The Bollocks ‘83’ by The Bollock Brothers has been forgotten so soon.

 

Music no longer holds it's former place a cultural relevant. What was the last album that had a bigger than life impact in the world?

 

Musically survive with just two albums + Neil Young's archive only? For the rest of my life?

God no.

 

Already exists.

The world? Don't know. Maybe something from BTS....they seem to be everywhere these days. But I don't really track all that.

But for me personally? A number of albums.

 

I thought Nirvana’s Nevermind was a close contender, at the very least..

 

Yes, I like Neil Young, but seriously... There's post rock for starters.

 

I'm excited.
What is it.
It's so huge it hasn't got here yet.

Even though it's sweeping the globe ?

 

1991 nearly 30 years ago

 

TBH, I think My Bloody Valentine and Slint had a bigger impact. Talk Talk too.

 

Wait - are you suggesting Never Mind the Testicles swept the globe?

 

I never did at the time. In many ways, it was closer to The Velvet Underground & Nico than Nevermind.

 

Never understood this preoccupation with charts and popularity.

Some eras that turn out to be classics later start in the underground. And some phenomenons don't start in the US / UK anymore - what's important for some (myself included) is what I like...not where it lives on the charts.

Even the case of the OP, as he's a big fan of Catholic Boy. Which, for the most part, no one knows except for "People Who Died".
