I havent read the Death o' WCW book and rarely see it mentioned online (and hardly ever amongst my wrestling fan aquaintences)...thus, underrated, imo.

Lamb of God, Chimaira (who Im pretty sure were around before I ever heard the word 'metalcore'), and Hatebreed all seemed fun when Ive seen em. Uh...whats the difference between 'sXe' hardcore' and...uh...whatever the other hardcore is? Oh, and btw....damn you typed alot.

Im quite baffled as to how anyone could not like Ghostface. To each/their own, etc...

The story of SB XXX - The Steelers' Neil O Donnell inexplicably throws the ball (twice), and the game, to Dallas' mvp Larry Brown. Larry would be the first of two consecutive SB mvps to jump ship to the Raiders after winning the game/award.

Fire Holmgren.

Some of it is pretty funny, kkk.

Basically, yes, as far as the linep it will 'probably' be Zwan-esque. The difference is that Billy wouldnt play any Pumpkins songs in Zwan or as a solo performer...now he wants to.

kkk - Do you have any opinions of your own? Or is it all just an extended parody?

Really? Eveyone I made listen to it, thinks it's really good. And everyone I know hates ICP, Violent J especially. Maybe text doesn't do it any justice, you just gotta hear his flowtastic skills. Does it sound funny? Comedy is the only good thing Ive found in ICP and I assume thats what theyre going for. If he trying to be serious...then its a really ugly unintentional self-parody. Ill give the benefit of the doubt to comedy though...because Im a Stranglemania mark.

Thats nice... Yes, Billy Corgan took out a full page ad in the paper (and made a vague reference on his myspace) about WANTING to put the Pumpkins back together. NME.com and a few other sites have recently 'confirmed' this is happening due to a fake Coachella lineup that circulated from the Coachella messageboard. Its not official yet...you might want to wait until its on Smashingpumpkins. com or Billy's myspace.

Thats odd....because the reunion isnt official yet.

Good call.

So 'metelcore' is like 'nu/rap metal' of a few years ago? Where no matter what the band sounds like... if its heavy, its metalcore? I still laugh when people call Slipknot 'rap metal'. Brilliant. Oh, another fun analogy...Seattle is to grunge what Boston is to metalcore.

PRINCE!~ on Feb 4th Looks like the Neil Young/Jack Black show wont be the only one I watch this season.

Machina had one of the best songs in the Pumpkins catalogue...Age of Innocence...an incredible hidden gem.

Who's the music guest next Sat?

Did I really read that someone thinks GAB '89 is overrated? The fuck? That show was easilly one of the 5 best ever. I agree about Spring Stampede '94 being underrated...and Slamboree that year was pretty good as well.

The Roots are the best live band on the planet these days...I dont know if they will ever make a studio record that can equal the brilliance of their live show.

DLH did offer Pacquiao the March date against Barrera...but that may be too soon after another war. There was a rematch clause in last night's fight contract. Morales deserves a long rest, if he decides to come back at all. The man is a true sports legend...and Pac Man is nearing that level himself(he is the Aaron Pryor of this generation).

Zertuche, Lopez, and Castillo won underneath... Pacquiao stopped Morales in the tenth round. It wasnt a big punch that did it...cumulation of blows, broken nose, and exhaustion finished off the great Morales. Sounds like a great fight and amazing performance by the PacMan...cant wait for the replay in a week.

Can someone explain to me why James Iha is necessary? He didnt write music and had one of the most boring stage presences ever.

'Intoxicated with madness/Im in love with my sadness' is a pretty strong lyric. And the Biblical references in Bullet/Butterfly are pretty good as well.

If the reunion rumor is true...it will probably be Corgan, Jimmy Chamberlein(drums), and replacement sfor D'arcy and James Iha. Billy Corgan wrote almost all of the material...D'arcy is now a lost crackhead and James Iha's only function was to stand up onstage and look like a junked out fairy(and play the simpler stuff Billy wrote for him). If Billy wants to play the old music (and maybe some new) with Jimmy and some new folks...its still pretty much the same. This isnt like current Guns N Roses with only Axl Rose...Izzy Stradlin, Slash, etc were actually important parts of GnR, the Pumpkins was all Billy and his whacky friends.

Why? Do you want to see Zab get pummeled?...thats where my only interest in this fight lies.

Are supposedly back together... Your thoughts?
