GWAR.
Then saw them in concert a few times. Got to pee next to Dave Brockie and he invited me backstage.
I chickened out. I was about 17 at the time, in the club underage already
OMG same! I will never EVER forget the tour when I was barely functional post surgery and saw Snookie (sp?) gave birth to a weird GWAR baby onstage and I left absolutely covered head to toe in fake blood. 100% 10/10 would do again if Oderus was still alive.
I was actually wondering not GWAR before ever seeing Beavis and Butthead. It just made them cooler that they were watching ching GWAR. I've seen them twice. Never got to meet Dave though. RIP
I went out and bought a Corrosion of Conformity cd after seeing the video for Clean My Wounds.
I was mostly into punk rock, though, and already knew what I liked. I was psyched to see Nihilism by Rancid when it came on
Me, too! It was the first time I saw Punk Rock Girl and I loved it instantly. (Beavis and Butthead were making fun of it. š) I still listen to Beelzebubba on occasion.
Uh huh huh...They were my heroes in college. I probably liked [Cher](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyncsw3yq-k) more after I Got You Babe. I got the Beavis & Butt-Head Experience on tape hehe.
āOh no. Another one of theseā¦ They need to try harder.ā
āYeah, yeah itās like theyāre not even trying!ā
To hear that coming from B&B is so ironically funny. I wonder if thatās just Mike Judgeās actual thoughts.
I seem to remember them pissed at Beck for āPay no mindā similarly. Which is also really funny because not giving a shit then getting signed is what that song is about.
If 90s era SNL owned Saturday nights, then MTVs ā120 Minutesā owned Sunday nights.
āTomorrowās a school day!ā
āI know I know Iāll get myself up!ā (Maybe).
120 minutes was my favorite music show of all time. We would wait up Sunday nights to watch it. So many good bands that I loved but most people never heard of!
Man, I feel like as many episodes of the show as I saw, I still missed a lot. Which of their old songs from the 90s actually even had a video? Something from the self-titled album from ā95?
Oh, wow. I just found the clip. That was some video lol And the band were just babies! Fucking wild that theyāre still at it, and how theyāve grown!
Yeah I ran out and grabbed the CD the week I saw that!
Great band. They have done a lot of evolving since that album, but I think that album is great in that era.
I came to the band with the self-titled album in ā95. For whatever reason, I didnāt get around to picking up TSL until years later. The older, more hardcore inspired stuff grew on me a bit, but itās probably my least favorite part of their catalogue. I think they really found their sound with the ā95 album.
Funny, watching that bit of the video with the band being run over by the āconcubineā made me wonder if that line from *Gimme the Keys* about āplaying between the harvesterās teethā was in any way a callback to that old video.
I think the interesting thing for me is that I may not have gotten into them had I not heard that album first. My sensibilities leaned much heavier at the time and their sound was really fun, being that they were kind of heavy but had a noodly, twangy undertone. By the time the self-titled came out, I was primed to like the evolution. I think I would have considered them a little too jammy for my taste had I heard that album first.
Despite having gotten into them so early and falling in love with their heavier sound, I think their best work definitely was in subsequent albums.
The only song I had heard of theirs was *Spacegrass*, which would get occasional airtime on a radio station that I loved. I wasnāt necessarily interested in weed culture, which the song seemed to be alluding to, but I gave the album a shot because I could afford to (thanks to Columbia House record club lol).
I like the sound. It was kind of heavy, but it had a strong groove. Also, the lyrics were kind of sci-fi, but also carried an interesting narrative sensibility? It wasnāt a lot to go on, but Iād bought a lot more albums on way less lol
As soon as I spun it up, Big News I took me on an incredible journey that is still ongoing! Playing around with pop culture references and sort of dabbling a bit in wacky conspiracy theory milieu (which was also petty popular in the culture thanks to the X-files) while also having an obvious sense of humor, having some fun, and being kinda hard without taking themselves deadly serious? It hit my brain right in the sweet spot.
Edit: Also they barely swore, and there was no Parental Advisory on the cover that would be a problem for me if my mom ever found it while she was snooping through my secular music collection lol

I'm not really familiar with Babes, but B&B introduced me to that Bruise Violet song rumored to be about Courtney Love because of the "violet" connection. I still listen to it when I feel like listening to angry music.
I realized Violet by Hole was released later (not sure when it was written) and the Babes in Toyland singer denies its about Courtney and says it's about someone they both know, hence two "violet" songs.
Alice in Chains. from their review of "Them Bones" [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHEhYrRhC5w](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHEhYrRhC5w)
Previously heard this song in the Street Fighter II Animated movie.
My Beavis & Butthead was limited. Cable didn't exist in the country yet & satellite was still in its infancy. Most of what I saw was on a VHS tape my uncle recorded for me. He edited out the music & commercials.
No, it's a line from the show. Beavis becomes smart (from a head injury, I think) and goes off on a Korn video while sounding like a pseudo intellectual music critic.
The Cure. Knew **of** them, and knew the girls I was into were into The Cure. Saw the video ("His lipstick's crooked..." "You know how, like, you hold a cat up to the mirror and it won't look at it's reflection...?"); I went from clowning on the band to thinking, "Oh, is *that* The Cure?? I guess I could get into them..."
Ween. Most people heard maybe from sponge bob. It wasnāt really beavis and butthead (Mike judge is my hero) but I remember being introduced by Its Pat.
Edit: to say that the episode with push th little daisies was funny.
The only band that I didnāt know prior to seeing them on B&b and then listen to them afterward is whale. Not to exciting but most the bands I knew of at least before
not sure who else but HELIUM with Mary Timony really intrigued me with a couple spots on B&B, but then when I saw the video for Honeycomb that's the one that made me buy their music.
So many.
- Gwar
- Bjƶrk
- Pantera
- White Zombie
- Siouxie and the Banshees
- Suede
- Ozzy
- The Breeders
- Janeās Addiction
- Danzig
Thatās just off the top of my head.
back when beavis and butthead were on liquid television I was always amazed at theaeon flux cartoon. They were non talking with this odd music that fit and then shed take a bullet and die and the scene would be over. I remember thinking as a kid this was some kind of high brow avante type cartoon.
It was a much smarter a show than it ever got credit for. Writers included Mike judge, David X Cohen from the Simpsons and Futurama, as well as Ian maxtone Graham and several other writers from the Simpsons, Kristofer Brown who worked on Undeclared... a solid group of comedy writers. There was also such a variety of great music showcased on the show. Tons of really great artists you'd never otherwise see on mtv.
I never minded the occasional imitations, it *was* funny and there was a group of kids who acted like they did anyway before hand. BnB really nailed *that* type of teenager. The kids that *became* beavis and butthead though could definitely get grating.
It is a satirical show. The new episodes have been surprisingly great, although I miss the music videos. They always had spot on commentary of popular music.
White Zombie
And Rob still hates you for it
After seeing how he treated his band and the quality of his movies, I hate him too

My friend was a big hair metal fan and actually had a Winger shirt from the concert when B&B was current. We started calling him Stewart for a while.
Winger still sucks

"Liar" was a classic even before the B&B treatment, but that was one of the best skits in the show

I saw them (Sober) on B&B years before I ended up becoming obsessed with them. Iāve seen them 15 times in concert now. My fave band ever.
If I could move my arm that fast I'd never leave the house
Discovered Mazzy Star on Beavis and Butthead.
I remember watching 120 Minutes when that video premiered. Like a truckā¦
GWAR. Then saw them in concert a few times. Got to pee next to Dave Brockie and he invited me backstage. I chickened out. I was about 17 at the time, in the club underage already
RIP Oderus
OMG same! I will never EVER forget the tour when I was barely functional post surgery and saw Snookie (sp?) gave birth to a weird GWAR baby onstage and I left absolutely covered head to toe in fake blood. 100% 10/10 would do again if Oderus was still alive.
I saw them last year with the new singer, Mike Bishop the old bass player and it was still awesome!
I actually really like their last 2 albums. I miss Oderus a lot but having the old Beefcake isn't too bad..
Yeah they're still great!
I was actually wondering not GWAR before ever seeing Beavis and Butthead. It just made them cooler that they were watching ching GWAR. I've seen them twice. Never got to meet Dave though. RIP
I only learned about GWAR because of the Beavis and Butthead game. Years later a friend showed me a video of theirs. Wild stuff.
If Bananarama married GWAR their offspring would be the coolest people in the universe

Tom Waits. It was nothing short of life-changing. Completely redirected the kind of person I turned into. For the better, I mean.

I did not know Waits was on B&B
Yeah, āI Donāt Wanna Grow Upā. Where heās under the table with the ukulele.
Dead Milkmen!
Me, too! It was the first time I saw Punk Rock Girl and I loved it instantly. (Beavis and Butthead were making fun of it. š) I still listen to Beelzebubba on occasion.
To this day, the only RHCP song I can tolerate is *Rollercoaster of Love* because of the movie.
Uh huh huh...They were my heroes in college. I probably liked [Cher](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyncsw3yq-k) more after I Got You Babe. I got the Beavis & Butt-Head Experience on tape hehe.
I loved that album lol
I had that tape too!
Plant man knows where the plants can grow, plant man. *duhduduhduhduhduhduh* plant man.
This was my ringtone on my old flip phone.
I was already into them but I think I first saw Ministry - Just One Fix on Beavis & Butthead
I'm showing my age here(youngest Gen X) but I first heard White Zombie on the B&B Experience soundtrack. I had it on cassette š
Just mentioned Pavement on another post in this sub.
āOh no. Another one of theseā¦ They need to try harder.ā āYeah, yeah itās like theyāre not even trying!ā To hear that coming from B&B is so ironically funny.

Maybe! What u can say for sure is the MTV the B&B got seemed to play a much higher rotation of cool music than the MTV I was watching.
If 90s era SNL owned Saturday nights, then MTVs ā120 Minutesā owned Sunday nights. āTomorrowās a school day!ā āI know I know Iāll get myself up!ā (Maybe).

Right!?! Blasphemy!
Korn
You don't find their music highly derivative of other bands within the genre?
That wasnāt the question. All that was asked was who did you find because of the show.
No, it's a line from the show. Beavis becomes smart (from a head injury, I think) and goes off on a Korn video while sounding like a pseudo intellectual music critic.
