There are a helluva lot more good Doom metal bands than Hair metal bands, however. I'll take Eyehategod over WASP, thanks.

I was looking for a guitarist: what's a humbucker?

Exactly, covering Dead Boys, Rose Tattoo, and UK Subs on early demos put them as the logical descendants of the NY Dolls as opposed to VH.

Listen to "Running…" on YouTube with just the vocal track isolated. He is most assuredly not a great singer, lol. He is what the article says:brash, showy, and confident.

Also "Piñata" by Freddie Gibbs w/Madlib's production. So good.

Absolutely. It's amazing how Huxley takes a novel that seems at first glance to be an injoke for his friends and turns it into a cast of entirely three dimensional characters. The little boy's death is so heartbreaking and sudden, but the parents' enforced lack of emotion cuts even more.

You would probably remember her attire in that scene…

(Reluctantly takes it…Joyce loves olives, after all) Lucky bastard.

Take it back, asshole (quivering with rage)

Ah, the record search. My favorite part of life.

Fascinating, thank you.

Best Scottish kiss ever!

That was great! Like PiL and Joy Division had a baby, thanks!

Thanks, that was really well written and thought provoking. The bisexuality angle is very troubling, I had no idea.

Point.. is so good! The artistic asshole character became so much funnier when I read he was taking the piss out of D.H. Lawrence. 😄

I'm reading Red Pine's translation of the Tao (with classical commentary) as recommended by my martial arts teacher, and really enjoying the headspace it puts me in. What is three aspect, if you don't mind my asking?

Why did you think DBC was atrocious? Just curious.

Alias is a show about a spy!

I've read almost all of his work, and I'd say it's head and shoulders above the rest. That being said, average Rushdie is better than almost everything else.

Wow, really? I love krautrock and motorik, I'll check those out. I love his voice, but the singles all sound like 80s movie credits so I never went deeper. Good heads up, Dell!
