Thank you for posting this, this is really for die hard fans, but it’s a part of their discography (kinda), deserves a place! Still waiting for the new album. Come on Matt, you already have new tracks just record them, pretty sure hum fans will not be disappointed. We all need it!
first time listener, and I can't imagine them doing a better album than this one. It's terrific -like another T S O L or or Husker Du? something. idk.. Hortense has a very weird sound to it.
@@CursedRaichu For sure! Although I don’t think many would consider Dinosaur Jr a hardcore or post-hardcore band. Only mentioning that because that’s specifically what I was referring to in my original comment. But they were definitely an influence on Hum!
you can hear the struggle between balty and the rest of the band for control of hum. Its an interesting document of what the two bands would become. I had forgotten all about this album until someone posted an anniversary for it on Facebook.
I can see why Hum chooses to not include this with the rest of their discography. It’s like a sneak peek of what they’d eventually become. Those last three or so minutes were a bridge to Electra 2000. Funnily enough, this album cover is the only one that has their name in all lowercase. While in the rest of their album covers, they have their name all uppercase.
I had (maybe still have?) this on cassette. I think I ordered it from Parasol records and the CDs were long gone so I had to get the cassette. Fun and surprisingly solid record! Pretty wild that within just a few years they'd evolve into the band that would create You'd Prefer an Astronaut?
they played my bar in birmingham alabama.....sent from nick from sluggo;s in pensacola...to see if i could add them....i made them open for the other two bands...and both band said,,,,,let them play and give them the door...we spent 5 bucks to get here and they have to go to illinois
So funny to revisit Hum before they were... well, Hum!! Certainly "Fillet Show" contains intimations of Hum-to-be, but they're still very much inchoate...
FYI, track 7 "Lip Saga" (which starts at 18:35 and ends at around 20:57 with a hardcut) is cut in half. Otherwise thanks for uploading the rest of the album and all in one video too!
This reminds me alot of what I like about the more obscure parts of Nirvana's discography. The sloppyness, the angst, the apathy, the punk rock avant garde-ishness of the guitar playing. Reminds me alot of Nirvana.
do you have ears??? its clearly him!! on spacefuck, detassler, maybe even one of the voices from staring at the sun. he has a very recognizable voice man
+liza moran If you want a physical copy of the album then occasionally the website discogs will have one up for sale.

If you just want to download the album then there are a bunch of sketchy file sharing sites that have it available.
@@jefallecker Not sure if it is yours or not, but that is a pretty well done fan page. I haven't tried any of the links yet, but if everything listed is still downloadable, then there is some hard to find goodness there. It doesn't look like it has been updated in awhile though, as it doesn't have anything related to Inlet anywhere; not even a mention.
It may not have their best but there is still a lot of good stuff on this LP. Hum fans can clearly hear what was to be. All others are clueless and listen to JZ and Snoop Dog anyway.
Wow. I can see why they are embarrassed about this album. I was like, "How bad could it be?" But it's pretty bad, relative to them. It's better than a lot of stuff that was out there. But you can totally tell they pulled the best parts out and utilized them perfectly later.

How do you like the new record? haha
CantFightRobots I absolutely love the new album. Surpassed expectations, incredible.
stoned gizzard Yup. Inlet is incredible. Tool fans thought they waited a long time
I'm glad you dig Inlet! It definitely exceeded my expectations, as well!!
You can definitely hear Hum’s post-hardcore roots on this album; sounds a lot like Fugazi, Moss Icon, or Shudder to Think.
Maybe some Dinosaur Jr. too? I know that’s one of Matt’s biggest influences.

@@joelhadley907the band before dinosaur jr (deep wound) is pretty punk idk

Hum and Mother/Menthol
Have you heard their demo Kissing Me is Like Kissing Angel? Same struggle, with B having a greater influence on that album.
I love this grungy, noisy 90's grunge sound. Hum

Like this more than I thought I would tbh
Hum is amazing in all they do..
Staring at the Sun, reminds me of old Meat Puppets.
Thanks for posting this. Very hard to find!
I legitimately like some of the songs on here

thats cool
Dude, that's rad! I'm from Bham and would have killed to see Hum in those days. I know this comment is five years old now, but what was the bar?
@@whoisnotlad club 312 ...20th st between 3rd & 4th....across from Tom Williams Cadillac
Early Hum ... pretty cool! Never heard this until today ... keep on rockin' boys!!! 💀
I'm sorry to admit that I just got the "fillet show" joke. After like a billion years.
I'm confused tell me
Felatio
@@juliansanchez4460 sound it out lol
@@liamrab6 ...wow - this whole time I thought it was a joke about circumcision.
same
Space Fuck is a really cool song. Would fit right on Electra 2000.
I’ve always thought Space Fuck was one of the most Hum-ish songs on this debut. I like the whole thing though, personally.
So funny to revisit Hum before they were... well, Hum!! Certainly "Fillet Show" contains intimations of Hum-to-be, but they're still very much inchoate...
After playing this three times, I have decided this is phenomenal. It took me as long to decipher the title. But, hey, I’m a chihuahua.
good dog
Awe pooch good dog
Doggo
Im glad

Not too shabby ... great things in their future I must say!!! 💀
Hortense bass line is nice
I always though I disliked this release, but I really don't. Maybe it's not Astronaut or Downward but it's got it's charms.
This is such a fun album, but I can understand why Hum would want to take a more serious approach in the future
Way better than Trout Mask Replica.
Haha!
Good one
/bow 🤘
Fuck yeah..
Thats right! Fuck yeah!
This is the weirdest shit. I wonder what Hum thinks about this looking back.

It's so good
Garage rock 101 yall
I wish this and Electra 2000 were on iTunes
electra 2000 is on itunes
chaziast actually it isn't
@@tristanthomas5595 dunce hat 4 you
Track 2 sounds like Ween.
Sounds like Fugazi to me. The vocalist sounds like Guy Picciotto.
@@formerlyskidsinmyute a lot of it does sound like Fugazi I actually always thought of that, but track 2 does sound more like god ween satan stuff.
I can see fugazi, but it does seem more like god ween satan type stuff.
what the fuck is this!?!? XD
but jokes aside this is actually really stupidly good
Did andy ever get into other bands? He's got an interesting voice
15:50 for Lip Saga
THANK YOU SO MUCH
Is that Matt signing on Space Fuck? I always thought he didn’t sing on this album
Almost 100% certain it's him based on sound, have no source to back me up but we all know info around this release can be sorta muddy.
do you have ears??? its clearly him!! on spacefuck, detassler, maybe even one of the voices from staring at the sun. he has a very recognizable voice man
i need this record where did you find it please help me
+liza moran If you want a physical copy of the album then occasionally the website discogs will have one up for sale.

And after those sketchy file sharing websites, go here for more demos and harder to find EPs and download those too

Was this before they were big?
Yep, released in 1991. It's also the only album they made with Andy Switzky on vocals.
awesome
Hum's first album. Music like this is still being today, search up 'Take A Look - HeadAche (Official Music Video)'
Matt do you still have copies of this for sale?
Is this the real Matt Talbott?
@@juliansanchez4460I highly doubt this is a comment that the real Matt Talbott would be making on this video lol

I love this album and band but also love Jay Z and Snoop... nothing wrong loving other things .

Not bad at all for a mudhoney, sonic youth type of sound but so far from what I think of when I think of Hum lol
This is not bad.
I guess I can see why someone who is only into mainstream type rock would be turned off from this, but for us noise rock fans this is pure gold
better than helmet’s first album🫣
haha i’m only kidding; my mental illness just hasn’t developed to the point where it’s listenable quite yet
@@RayAtchleyBro, fuck off with that shit. There’s plenty of mainstream noise rock, you arrogant dipshit.
