Needles & Grooves AoTM /// Vol. 9 - March 2020 /// X-Ray Spex - Germfree Adolescents

I forgot to mention Jennifer Herrema (of Royal Trux) was also a TV and print model for Calvin Klein (CK One) in the 90s.
Co-leader Neil Hagerty has control issues and they were a big influence on The White Stripes according to this article:

'I'm out, man!' Royal Trux reform – then split up in the middle of this interview

Their music was wild and their lives even wilder. But the rock duo pulled through the booze and drugs to reform – until we met them

They also have this very gross toilet album cover (look at your own peril):

There's also this mirror album cover from Royal Trux that is less stomach-churning and which I should've thought of before the other nasty one:

19

Slow reveal of year? In combo with the earlier “1” post?

That would make it either the second or twelfth century...

 

[gaporter]

That would make it either the first or eleventh century...

Not if its adding a number each time. First post "1", second post "19", third post "199" and so on

That seems a little convoluted to the point that it actually doesn’t make any sense...

It makes sense to me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Goo confirmed!

sonic youth has had a bevy of drummers, i think the correct course of research is which ones have played for who else.

oh man, we just needed a reference to Sonic Youth now..... (cinderella's big score, from Goo)

the reference to "dollar" sent me straight back to Neneh Cherry.
In the video for Buffalo Stance she has a dollar sign necklace.
so, maybe raw like sushi?

(ok, Ok, this guess fails on multiple levels already - not a band, not a male drummer, etc... etc...)

well, apart from the early beginnings, only 1 drummer payed in Sonic Youth from 1985.
Steve Shelley on the other hand, payed/recorded for a gigantic number of different artists.

browsing through the list, the one that caught my eye was Sun Kil Moon.
Unfortunately I have no idea if any of the clues could even fit.

Edit: Was there a recent reissue? I'm buying it regardless

The bathroom mirror is a Vanity.

Jim Sclavunos was short term drummer who led The Vanity Set.....

Or it could just be Happiness in Magazines by Graham Coxon which would make me stupendously happy (if it’s even available on vinyl)

I have a copy
