[kj] (OT) Glossary of most unlikely words to appear in KJ lyrics

[Brendan]

Actually I have a good one.

Francis Bean.

Two words but it's a name and I'm making the rules anyway.

Dollop.
Thwack.
Qwerty. That's gotta be the one.


> I think all of those words appeared on Outside the Gate (mainly in JC001's

>>

>> What about the guys of Hella? That's like a new way of playing guitar

>> On the other hand, another quite original guitarist -maybe not very

>> I

>> Meshuggah's "Catch Thirtythree" from 2005 is not that good, but still is
