Ahhh, see that makes more sense. Offense at hypocrisy rather than offense at lack of understanding for a sick person.

I don't agree with your assessment. I think part of the reason Bay is so offensive to a lot of critics is that, as this video points out, Bay actually has a lot going for him in his film-making ability. It's like he's the bright but lazy underachiever that the teacher always harps on while ignoring the legitimate…

Anyone else feel the urge to point out that it should be "BayhEm" not "BayhAm"? Or is the misspelling deliberate and part of the joke? *edit* Nevermind. I now see it's spelled correctly on the video and is only spelled incorrectly on the link in the article.

No guys, it's ok. See, if it's a legitimate groping, a woman's body has a way of shutting that down. Alternatively, if there were no weapons involved, it's not really sexual assault.

I'm not saying he's not talented, I'm not saying he's without value, nor am I saying he killed anyone, despite my choice of comparison. What I'm saying is that he did something pretty awful, and in (apparently) the heat of the moment someone said something mean about him, irrespective of his mental health, and I…

So what if he called him a "piece of shit"? Sure, that may be insensitive to the plight of the mentally ill, but when someone does something awful, mental illness only goes so far in making us more sympathetic to the culprit. Hell, Adam Lanza was clearly about as mentally ill as it's possible to be, but you won't…

Nocturama would like a word with you. Either that or you just *really, really* hate the Smiths.

Neubauten is my favorite band, bar none. They've passed the test of time, both in that their old stuff holds up, and that the evolution of the band over time has been perfect. While it would be almost impossible for the uninitiated to recognize that 1980 Neubauten and 2010 Neubauten are the same band (barring lineup…

A lot of asswipes *want* the collateral damage, though. They're too chickenshit to die on their own, so they figure if they take a bunch of people down with them, they can handle it. Especially if they can convince themselves that the innocents they're murdering have somehow been responsible for all the hardships the…

Yeah, it was kinda funny because I'd forgotten about that quest and remembered quite enjoying that questline, and then that one just up and slapped me in the face.

I'm the same way. Even in games where it's a little easier (in relation to other games, not in relation to "good") to go "evil," like Bethesda games, for instance, I find that while I *can* go evil, I do think a lot about the ramifications of it. For instance, in my most recent Skyrim playthrough, I was cringing…

Ok… I'm taking your word for this. I just ordered Spectre. We shall see.

Isn't making people ill the primary goal of Serge Gainsbourg's music? I mean, the guy was (is?) brilliant, but also frighteningly twisted.

Obviously I was being hyperbolic, but when they have at least three albums consisting entirely of covers (Let It Be, which was ok, though still a cover album and therefore automatically shit, and NATO, which was just shit all the way around, and Jesus Christ Superstar, about which the less said the better), it's fair…

Yeah, Lava and Brick Windows were pretty solid. But I'd completely forgotten about them, so I think that proves my point :P

I think Millenium was one of their weakest albums, but they have some great stuff after that.

The only thing great about Filth Pig was the cover of Lay, Lady, Lay. The rest of it was utterly forgettable.

Ughhh, I'd disagree. I mean, Opus Dei and Kapital were both great (in totally different ways), but almost everything else they've done is shit or covers. I used to be a huge, huge Laibach fan, but eventually I took a big step back and realized that most of their work actually sucks.

I dunno, I've always considered Haus der Luege or Halber Mensch to be their peak. Drawings of OT is great (and Morning Dew is one of my favorite EN songs of all time), but it never seemed quite as cohesive as House of Lies or HalfMan.

Ughhh, Laibach is shit. And I say that as someone who was obsessed with them 15 years ago when I was in highschool. They have some decent stuff, and their blending of martial sound and industrial is interesting, but when 95% of their catalog is covers, I feel they can't be legitimately acknowledged. Aside from Opus…
