[quote=Wikipedia]The Replacements (sometimes referred to colloquially as the Mats) were an American rock band formed in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1979. The band was composed of guitarist and vocalist Paul Westerberg, guitarist Bob Stinson, bassist Tommy Stinson, and drummer Chris Mars for most of their career. Following several critically acclaimed albums, including Let It Be and Tim, Bob Stinson was fired in 1986 and the band experienced several line-up changes; Slim Dunlap joined as lead guitarist and Steve Foley replaced Chris Mars in 1990. Towards the end of the band's career, Westerberg exerted more control over their creative output. The group disbanded in 1991, with the members ultimately pursuing various projects. The Replacements never experienced any significant commercial success but have influenced a variety of alternative rock acts.[/quote] [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/48/SorryMaForgotToTakeOutTheTrash.jpg[/img][img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/ce/Stink.jpg[/img][img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/0e/TheReplacementsHootenanny.jpg[/img][img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/bf/Replacements-LetItBe.jpg/220px-Replacements-LetItBe.jpg[/img][img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/2a/TheReplacementsTimalbumcover.jpg[/img][img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/04/The_Replacements_Pleased_to_Meet_Me.jpg[/img][img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4f/The_Replacements-Don%27t_Tell_a_Soul.jpg/220px-The_Replacements-Don%27t_Tell_a_Soul.jpg[/img][img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/69/Shook.jpg[/img] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UII8qh6A8oY[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRkIFAdgtMw[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z45aVwhcihY[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSCl7zjRDYw[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEwTMJTxVo0[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKWjFa_36L8[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kgrz4eKYWeQ[/media] Would post a song off of every album but I'm too lazy. One of the best bands of the 80's
My friend showed me these guys the other day. Pretty cool.
I HATE MUSIC! Sometimes I don't I hate music, it's got too many notes!
I love this band so much, Sorry Ma and Let It Be are two of my most favourite albums of all time.
