I still don't get all the hate for Diabolus, I really love that album. So dark, textured. Saw them 3 times on that tour and it was the last time Slayer was actually 'scary' to me. Those shows were fucking intense. Never got the nu-metal slag people bashed it with either. Plus, that's the last album Hanneman wrote the

"This is because metal fans are the only people left who actually buy albums. "

It does seem funnier knowing that it's fake/in on the joke. Lame that it was corrected.

They're servicable works. Not as good the original stuff, but enjoyable.

I read somewhere he was actually allowed to leave the prison occasionally and walk around town, run errands and shit. I don't remember where I saw that.

Ain't that the truth… which I guess is part of what this documentary is about.

Well put Arsenio…

Crud
Online auction has ended…

TAOJJBTCRF was fan-fucking-tastic. Brutally ignored and underrated for the most part, which is sad. It's almost too gorgeously shot as well.

Match Point
Should be on this list at least! Great, great movie.

Throw my hat in the ring for "Step Brothers"… my favorite WF movie. Reilly steals it though. Amazingly funny and endlessly rewatchable.

I always thought he was sort of channeling Val Kilmer as Jim Morrison in Dogtown.

ROPE
is fucking awesome, exercise that it may be. Wow… now I gotta read all these (long) fucking comments.

Nice!
Keep flying the flag, ZMF…

huh?

Sony has all that shit tied up… and everything except Cleansing & Rude Awakening (as far as I know) from Sony is no longer in print. Which is a shame. Beg To Differ in particular is just a crushing record!

I love your visual interpretation of AWWWWWIMPETUS!!! hahah

They are re-issuing America Must Be Destroyed - which is their finest album in my opinion - with a bunch of extra stuff that looks well worth picking up again…

I liked his book "On Writing" quite a lot… it would see rather than King buying his way into respectability, perhaps he allowed himself to be used as a way to help those things survive.

I agree with all the Pro-Shining movie comments.
