I don't know who christened this jerk the mouthpiece of the punk/post punk movement but somebody needs to usurp him as the dude that gets interviewed about anything that happened between 1980 and 1997. What effects pedal did Mark Arm use on Green River's first EP? What kind of tampons did Tobi Vail of Bikini Kill favor? Waxings on the DC punk scene pre and post Minor Threat. If you're doing a documentary, Thurston's waiting by the phone to plunk himself in front of his library of 200,000 rare albums wearing an ironic Blonde Ambition t-shirt and bombast about the good ol' days of catching a slice of 'roni with Kelly Deal or how he was omnipresent for EVERY rock milestone since Agnostic Front played CBGB.
Yeah, I get the whole he's a pioneer in ripping humbuckers out of rare Duo Sonics and jamming in a screw gun for tonal effects thing and all but, really? Is there anyone else that is interested in this gig besides Henry Rollins?
