AND WHAT’S THE DEAL WITH GRAPE NUTS?! YOU OPEN IT UP, NO GRAPES, NO NUTS!

Wait, I think I got it, guys. He’s calling wresting fake.

idk probably for the same reason they call car chases in movies “car chases” instead of “scripted car movements designed to look like a chase”????

hawks - they’re just like us.

If you listen to radio stations now that criss-cross the country - ones named something like “jack” - they play way more hair metal- poison and whitesnake and way less grunge. Those bands didn’t disappear.  

I Listened to 'October Rust' every day for about three months.

I totally forgot the MK soundtrack from my immediate list. I love the techno Mk themes, and halcyon + on + on (also on hackers) is a desert island track for me.

My God, I love "Wolf Moon". There really was no one like Peter Steele.

There's definitely a bit of a silly, theatrical 'are they serious?' element to them which I reckon puts some people off, and to be honest would normally put me off - any music with even a whiff of novelty is definitely not my thing.

Very polarizing band. Of all people I've met who are into similar types of music, the ones who are into Type O I can count on one hand, but the ones that are love them.

the soundtrack version always sounded a bit too 'studio' to me (especially the vocals), but both versions are good.

WHAT A WOOKIE

Pump up the volume was an essential. Kids. Natural Born Killers. So I Married an Axe Murderer inflicted Spin Doctors on us. Forrest Gump was ubiquitous for a while.

Clerks was my immediate thought, another weird (although synergistic, I think through Atlantic) mix with a big grunge hit and odder stuff on the margins (Leaders and Followers is a great Bad Religion B-side and of course Chewbacca). It also went all in on stuff from the movie too, dialogue snippets and that…

Yea, The Crow soundtrack was one of the last albums that I got on cassette tape.

Singles and Judgment Night.

kinda bugs me actually. I didn't really know all that many people who had a Discman at the time. the things were expensive, and they hadn't yet started to include the skip-buffers, which was the only thing that made them remotely useful as a portable music device. myself and most of the people I knew were still using…

My introduction-by-way-of-cover to Joy Division was, sadly, Paul Young's version of Love Will Tear Us Apart.

Lemme throw a few out here, just off the top of my head.
