Pere Ubu is about as Punk as you can get. I wanted to put "The Fevered Dream of Hernando DeSoto" from their St. Arkansas album. But I could work the title into a war theme without referring to a plague and pestilence. So now I am fuzzy and warm and very approachable. This track serves my purposes just fine. This track is off their album "The Modern Dance" recorded in '77 (album was released in 1978) this track puts these Cleveland rockers at the begining of the so c... MORE

I've never encountered an album that so alters listeners' perceptions of the world around them so much as this record. I can say with a straight face that it is actually slightly dangerous to listen to while driving. There is alot of talk about how artists in performance either enhance or destroy the space between them and their audience that is, by default, present due to the stage. On their 1978 debut Pere Ubu, however, transcend the boundary that devides the sound of ... MORE

The only band I can think of that's over 20 years old and, as far as I can determine, has never put out a bad album is Pere Ubu. I haven't heard everything, but I am including Cloudland in this estimation, which a lot of people consider to be the band's worst effort. There are very few Pere Ubu songs I don't like.

I'm not really very good at describing music. There's a jangly punky sound about these guys that I really like.

I was listening to my MP3 player today when I was out & the song 'Bus Called Happiness' started playing. I was reminded of the sheer brilliance that was Pere Ubu. What can you say for a band that's been around for decades & no one ever mentions them(or knows who they are? except Blair or Neill )That's the definition of underground! Perhaps because of their undefinable sound & punk indie origins they seem to have been overlooked considerably. But not by me! Here's a littl... MORE

My bad, I've had these photos from Thanksgiving and I haven't posted them. The show was amazing and if there was any criticism was really there was absolutely no need for an opening act. They definitely gave you your money's worth. I have to say it was one of the longest shows I've been too. Hard core fans need only apply. Dave Thomas tooks swigs of PBR and Remy VSOP throughout the show. Apologies for the pics, they were taken w/ my Razr and I wasn't as close to the st... MORE

I feel bad for anyone not seeing Pere Ubu play the live soundtrack to a 1960s sci-fi film about a guy with x-ray eyes tonight. Ha, suckers.

You know, growing up as a "rocker" (read: sammy hagar, van halen, montrose, etc), there's quite a lot of music out there that I have had little or no experience with. In the past 10 years, I've broadened my musical taste quite a bit, but I still find myself finding out about stuff that's come around quite a while ago that I wish I'd heard about long before. I suppose that's one "benefit" of being mostly focused on one particular genre of music. If you feel like explori... MORE

"Mr Thomas should not be referred to as "Dave" or touched in an overly familiar way. His name is "David." Shaking hands is all the physical contact that should be needed." Let's start at the very beginning. I spent my late teenage years and most of my twenties with, what could be regarded as, an unhealthy obsession for Pere Ubu. I had, and still have, all that was available on vinyl including the original Hearthan singles. I once went away on holiday and the first thing I ... MORE
