Wiseblood - Stumbo

[Bewohner2000]

I have seen Jim Thirlwell in Hannover, Germany. He's the master of disaster!

[boid731]

Thirlwell is amazing! This song still hold up. Fantastic.

[DrugStabbingTime]

It's like the Birthday Party and Boys Next Door meets Suicide, with a bit of the Sisters of Mercy thrown in for good measure.

[stevosomebizzare]

lots of love and devotion

[supermanic21]

you fear and both worship the foetus aka j thirwell

[TheKatjalucia]

yeay!

[supermanicedm]

OMG fear him or worship.

[DJMystaspot]

Awesome! I recorded this song off the radio (Lewis & Clark College's KLC a.m.) in 1988 or 1989, and it was always a favorite, even though I never know who did it. And now I convert it and have it in my library, instead of wondering which of the hundreds of cassettes it's on.

[TwitchMD]

@DJMystaspot you can get the whole album at amazon for like, 18 bucks.

[KotoRyu]

5:36 through 5:45 are the best moments in music history

[MsLipsticklover]

together with Prince Thirlwell is ma biggest inspiration..that guy's just sexual outrageous..and unbelievably diverse

[princessstomper]

This clip is just ridiculously sexy. It should have its own channel.

[lanianj]

You know, I saw them play at the Metro in Chicago in '89 or so. Lydia Lunch was there too. And for this old timer, I guess you kind of figured you'd never see them again.... I still got the 12 inch. This is awesome to see this

[bhamdairy]

omg, can't believe this...loved this song back in the day! ROCK JG/Clint....!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Uglisse]

great!!

[ogami72]

This was one of my favorite albums in high school...I still can't believe he does the Venture Brothers soundtrack now...

[badluckshadow13]

@ogami72 I feel ya there. I think I actually watched the VB pilot before I knew Thirlwell was responsible for the tunes.

I was all, "that voice in the background sounds uncannily familiar..."

[polistyrenejassband]

i think it was a book too

[shamajuju]

Wiseblood, by Flannery O'Connor - if you've ever read her stuff, then you know why Jim named this project after her book .

[beowulven]

The book is called Wise Blood, not Wiseblood.

[wiseblood90]

hey stumbo i cant believe they named a band and film after me LOL

[Karnagoz]

Stumbo gonna suck off your face!

[Krushinbrit]

FF got a version off that song

[FeydHrknen]

could someone upload 'Where Evil Dwells'....that song rocks

[fuckMandatorySignup]

Jim rocks my block. i keep coming across these random past bits for him and his variety and rawness continues to amaze me.

great video upload, too - excellent quality for some vintage vid!

[stumbo2w]

I cant believe they named a song after me.

[sonjaspaan]

Jim can actually sing quite well..just listen to " throne of agony" on nail

[bofflunz]

if the singer would be able to call himself one this was one of my all time favs. but this fault makes a great song disapear behind other great tracks of the 90's. but the music is great however.

[TheKnifeWon]

I can't imagine the stuff he's singing being sung in a "better" voice. The lyrics and singing and fitted right to each other!

[snowytear]

stumbo push over buildings.

[tripbrother]
