"Let It Ride" reimagines the soulful, haunting essence of The Afghan Whigs' "Demon in Profile", infusing it with a fresh twist that blends hip-hop rhythms and beats to honor the timeless quality of the original track. This version brings a new energy and pulse to the song, amplifying its raw intensity with powerful lyrical flow and bold instrumental layers, while preserving the emotional depth that fans of the original will recognize. Through this unique interpretation, "Let It Ride" captures the spirit of "Demon in Profile" in a way that feels both reverent and innovative, bridging genres to connect with audiences on a profound level.

In short: I fucked around and found out. Enjoy.

I have a folder of Now We Can Begin but it's 2 cds so I'm guessing it's just a fan compiled playlist that floated around on p2p programs.

Help, i need to fins a vinyl copy original or reissue by Christmas- for the loml! im in Australia, we cant get anything here, its shit, cant even get Afghan Whigs to come out here, does anyone have a copy they want to sell or know of anywhere outside of Down under? TIA

Seeing an odd amount of love for Wussy on my socials lately. Yes? No? Idk what I’m asking, but Cinci.

Long shot but anyone on here looking to possibly parting with their copy?

I am looking for the full show of the 1994 MTV Movie Awards, not the 1994 MTV Video Music Awards, the 1994 MTV Movie Awards. Greg Dulli performed as part of The Backbeat Band at this event, yes, this performance is uploaded a few times on the YouTube websites, yet not most of the rest of the show. I have been looking for this show for quite sometime, and I would love to see it.

I am looking for the full show of the 1994 MTV Movie Awards. Greg Dulli was in the Backbeat Band, and they performed some songs at this show. The full show is not uploaded on YouTube or archive websites. I would love to see this show, and have been looking for it for quite sometime. MTV was so great for most of the 1980's and 1990's.

This guy truly is a believer. He created his own universe. A body of music with a stamp on it. And COMPLETELY underrated. Whether it’s a collaboration or a cover, it always has this Greg Dulli sauce on it (the 18+ tag).

Real fans see I miss the debut Big Top Halloween (rare like an early Picasso) and the first Twilight Singers album, but that one’s on my list. Some might say it all sounds the same, but last 30+ years this guy has proven to believe in a sound that followed no hipster shit. Just been doing his thaaaaang. Love him! 🥰

Very legendary, I know lol

Hello people... Does anyone have the chords to The Twilight Kid? I'm thinking about covering that song in my band but I can't find the chords online.. TIA

We were lucky enough to get tickets for Jack White's excellent show in a small-medium venue in north London tonight. And I was delighted to see Patrick on drums. They crushed it. The new record is sick. Proper blues garage rock and roll, wonderful tunes

I am looking for the full show of the 1994 MTV Movie Awards. Not the 1994 MTV Video Music Awards, the 1994 MTV Movie Awards full show. I know that the entire performance of the Backbeat band is uploaded on YouTube. I would love to see the full show and am hoping that I could get helped. It would mean a lot. I have been looking for it for a long time. Thanks.

This may be a fabricated memory, but I think I once saw the cover of Gentlemen with the same models as adults. Or maybe with different models in the same pose. Does this "adult cover" exist? (I'm not thinking about *"*Nan and Brian in Bed, New York City" by Nan Goldin which apparently was an inspiration for the cover.)

 I got a VIP ticket for D.C. and asked a couple of questions.

When I asked about the interview where Greg said he wanted to do a rarities set, but it was a lot to put together and asked if it was still coming he said it was on the box. I looked confused at him, and  he said, “Oh, you mean the Whigs? There are no Afghan Whigs rarities.”. John Curley saw the astonished look on my face - since you may know, I've been sharing a drive full of rarities - and said, “They’re on the internet.” Greg then said, “Everything we want you to hear is out there, and if it’s not, we don’t want you to hear it.” 

Greg also went on a tangent responding to either my question or somebody else’s and brought up criticisms about the TS box price and availability, saying that he wanted it done exactly how it was and that he collects art and is good with paying for art, and that this is a piece of art and it won’t be pressed ever again and that those who missed out and snoozed are shit out of luck. I love AW and Dulli, but I think he’s off base with that as the answer to those upset about the set being $600+ with exclusive music fans can’t get otherwise.

 I also asked what was the song they played live a few times years ago before White Trash Party And provided some lyrics to help jog his memory. “Ain’t nobody here called…” Greg jumped in, and said, “Oh! The “N” word is the next lyric, yeah, won’t be singing that again!” He said he thinks it’s a song by The Last Poets, but he’s not sure which one.  He also told a story when he finished a Notorious B.I.G. lyric on stage with that word years ago, and a black friend (I think their backup singer for the tour? He said their name, but I'm not sure) giving him the cut that out sign, and that he hasn’t ever since. 

Anyhow, I feel great about sharing all of those rarities with other fans since Greg and the boys don’t want to sell them to anyone! 

Speaking of rarities, ...I got the tour 7" with Steve Kilbey and Greg professionally digitized and have the WAV and MP3 versions in the drive in the Dulli folder. Send me a message if you want the drive link and don't have it and I'll hook you up!

Hi all. Was just wondering if anyone could please point me towards some scans of the book included with The Twilight Singers box set released last year.

I understand it contains never before seen photos and some essays. Would be great to have a chance to read it, considering I don't ever see myself being able to obtain the box set itself.

Thank you!

First Afghan Whigs album I bought is Congregation. Then a month later, Up In It when I saw it somewhere. Found out later that Big Top Halloween was their first. 1000 pressed. Released in Cincinnati probably and nowhere to be found back in 1993, Europe.

Then; Gentlemen was released. MTV Europe was at their prime and the videos of Gentlemen and Debonair were played on a weekly basis. The drums on these last two albums were incredible but when Black Love was released in 1996 Steve Earl had left the band/been fired/died/went to the Bahamas. 🤷🏼

So, does anyone of you Whigs fans know where he’s at these days? Last 30 years? Google knows nothing.

Finally did the deed and paid to do the VIP Q&A. After some fun with the Fillmore staff, (I got escorted off a balcony) we were treated to a few songs and then a Q&A with the OG band (Greg and John). Thought I'd be starstruck, but there was a dude there that was acting really weird when the band came out, which made me feel oddly calm in comparison. I asked a bunch of questions, not the least of which was about Backbeat. Greg said that unlike the album, the movie features his vocals only for John and Paul. The Soul Asylum dude recorded different versions for the soundtrack release. They were as cool and charming as you'd expect. They seem like very good friends having fun doing what they love. Greg said a new Whigs album is on the way (2 songs done) and that they will also release an album of covers in the future!

Howdy y’all. Have an extra ticket for anyone who wants it, out at the Mishawaka theater. DM me!
