You were ahead of almost everyone else on that one. He didn't find any real success until he appeared on Jools Holland's show, which is exactly where I saw him for the first time. That was back when they still showed Jools Holland on BBC America.

KLSU
One of my college buddies' older brother was the program director at KLSU in the early 80s - that's how she got her start as a DJ at like 14 or whatever. She used to do nights/weekends on 100.7 when it was a rock station in the late 80s.
Good times...

Please don't tell me you are one of those jaded 40 plus year old's rocking some obscure 90s reggae band shirt and Birkenstocks at the local hipster bar drinking at 5:30 pm on a Tuesday complaining how you are still rebelling against your parents and hope your 15 year old doesn't end up the same (this is the first thing I'm actually serious about in this thread).

What I'll tell you is a that I'm an small town Louisiana redneck, industrial/commercial electrician/instrument tech (depending on which particular job I feel like taking), who works a whole lot of hours and who wouldn't know a pair of Birkenstocks if they ran up and bit him on the arse.
I do wear Red Wings on the job, but steel toes are a requirement along with FRC on just about any job I work on. A couple of pairs of beat up old Nikes do the trick when I'm off work and puttering around my house and property here outside Clinton in the woods and hills of the Felicianas. I only drink tequila and then usually only at home.
My father's been dead for almost a decade, and instead of rebelling against him I was fortunate enough to be his caretaker the last year of his life as his kidneys failed and the congestive heart failure slowly wasted him away. It was an honor and a privilege to be able to help the man who selflessly sacrificed so much for me over the years. Rebel against him? Hell, I strive every day to be as much like him as I can be, because I can think of no better role model I could have possible had. I cannot begin to list the numbers of ways my life was better for having him in it, and the pain of his passing is still with me every day on some level. And it's from him that I got my love of music. It was his eclectic record collection that I raided as a child, getting turned onto everybody from B.B. King and Ray Charles to Hank Williams, Ray Price, Redd Foxx, and Brother Dave Gardner. Hell, that record collection sits barely more than an arms length from me as I type this, and I still raid it occasionally to this day. I had a long list of chores to do on the weekends, so sitting around watching cartoons or wasting time wasn't an option. Both my parents worked full time plus we farmed a couple acres. I'd put on a record, turn the volume up, and tune into the music instead of being bored out my mind. The excitement I felt as a little boy as I'd dig through the boxes until I saw something that intrigued me is the same I feel today whenever someone post something new in that Stoner Metal topic or I'm watching Jools Holland and some act I've never heard of comes on and blows me away.
And besides, most of the reggae music I like is from the 70s/80s that a buddy of mine turned me onto when we worked as order selectors at AG back in 92 and 93. Marley, Toots, Burning Spear, etc.

Failure was awesome back in the 90's
that new album is incredible. Ken Andrews and Greg Edwards had a band with the old Tool bassist called the replicants in the 90s, they played cover songs and actually had a guest vocal on one from maynard (silly love songs)
Those guys are incredible and I'm so glad they reformed. I love all 3 of the 90s failure albums.

Yes, I love them all too, but this latest one is a leap forward for them. It's the best, most complete and cohesive work they've done. And whereas all their other albums have a song or two that don't do anything for me, I like every single tune on this one, including all the segues but the very last one.
But what really blows me away is that they were split up and away from each other for so long, yet the new stuff sounds just like you would think it would if they had never broken up. As soon as the first real song starts, you know it can only be one band. To be able to pull that off is really unimaginable to me.

Just more proof that our taste in music are quite similar.
I just got Paladia again on my satellite package about 4 months ago, and the instant I did it became one of my top five favorite channels. When I saw they still showed Jools Holland, I almost did a back flip.
