    Comments which don't warrant a thread.

    I got the new RJD2 album "The Third Hand" via rar. file today. I'm not liking it. He should really stick with producing and stay away from singing. I'll give him kudos for taking a chance with this one, but in the end, it sounds too much like DJ Shadow meets Beck meets Elliot Smith, and in a bad way.

    Interpol - "The Heinrich Maneuver"

    I heard it, and I have mixed feelings. At one hand, it's undeniable catchy. On the other hands, it's too by the numbers. I also saw the tracklist for the new album, and some of the song titles are dreadful, particularly "There's No I in Threesome", which sounds too much like the title of a Fall Out Boy song.

    People Who Shouldn't Post Anymore: May 2007

    As much as I've ragged on you in the past (I just don't care about you anymore, to be honest) You'll never be as bad as EHME, who actually once suggested that Brock Lesner should play a villain in Spiderman 3 That's not that bad. I once thought the same if he could learn to act just a little. To some as long as the look is spot-on that's all that matters. I'm sure fucking Topher Grace was a shock to everyone and for those who prioritize replicating the comics and what they grew up with above all else, it still is. You really let Cheesala and Carlito bring out the worst in you. Just let it go before you look just as bad for constantly arguing with them. I pretty much gave up arguing with Cheesala a while back, because again, I don't care about him too much. He's just...there. Carlito pretty much brings out the worst in all of us.

    Reading more of this thread: There's people who actually hate "Angel Heart"? That's one of my favorite movies from the 80's. I gotta mention "European Vacation." I always thought that one was underrated. Someone mentioned "Evolution" earlier. Good to see I'm not the only person who likes that movie. I also gotta mention "Cannibal Ferox", aka "Make Them Die Slowly." In spite of the animal snuff, it's the only Italian Cannibal flick i like, simply because it's so bad it's good. Oh, and "Lifeforce." It's a big overblown mess, but a fun one, with a hot chick who's naked throughouth the whole movie, as well as over acting at it's best, Steven Railsback, Patrick Stewart (who actually kisses Railsback-it's a long story), London becoming infested with zombies-or are they vampires, I don't remember too well, and well, it needs to be seen to be be believed. I love that fucking movie.

    I voted for raz, though I should have gone with Carlito, since he's pretty much what happens when you mix the stubborness of MikeSC with the poor comeback skills of CronoT. Plus, he ruins most of the threads he posts in.

    08.) Aerosmith-Rock in a Hard Place At this point in their career, Aerosmith were in some serious trouble. We all know about the drugs and whatnot, and Joe Perry and Brad Whitford being kicked out. The result? Fortunately, not something that tries to keep up with the times, but Aerosmith's worst. "Joanie's Butterfly" is a real cringer, with it's bad attempt at psychedellia, while "Jailbait" sounds like a bad leftover song, as does much of the album. At least Joe Perry returned after this one. 07.) Elvis Presley-Having Fun on Stage No it's not music. It's Elvis in his 70's lowpoint, basically talking on stage. That's right, an album of Elvis doing nothing but talking, telling jokes (you haven't lived untill you've heard Elvis try to impersonate a Black Woman), asking for a glass of water, showing us eleven ways to pronounce "Memphis", and generally making an ass of himself. This was released thanks to Col. Tom Parker BTW, and was actually released as a legitimate concert album. Strangest of all: There's 5 fucking volumes of this. No, I'm not kidding you, there is 5 volumes of this. And let me remind you, this wasn't released to piss off the label, like Metal Machine Music-this really was released as a serious, legitimate album. 06.) Mick Jagger-She's the Boss Ok, I can understand Mick wanting to do an album that doesn't sound much like the Stones, but this is unforgiveable. Featuring a who's who of artists (Herbie Hancock, Pete Townsend, and even Jeff Beck) to do a generic. dated, and all around awful album. Actually, now that I think about it, all of Jaggers solo work sucks, but this really bears to be mentioned because it's the first one that came to mind. Oh, and don't get me started on the cover.

    The "Dead Hooker" scene is the best dead hooker joke in the history of cinema. Anyways, some others Street Trash (Six words: Hot Potato with a severed penis) Body Melt (Has a jumbled plot, but still a blast. Also the only movie I can think of were a guy dies because of his own mucus) Dagon From Beyond Blood Diner (OOP 80's horror comedy. Must be seen to be believed.) Night of the Comet Shivers Cabin Boy ("You wanna buy a monkey?") I Drink Your Blood (70's exploitation horror with a cult of satanic hippies. Incompetent, but a total blast.) Martin (Little seen George Romero movie. Also one of his best) My Little Eye The Roost (fun 70's and 80's horror tribute) Abominable (see The Roost) Junk (Japanese zombie movie that feels almost like the best Italian zombie movie never made.) Cabin Fever (I'm probably the only man on Earth who loves this movie.) Carnosaur (90's DTV movie that manages to rip off Jurrasic Park and Alien. Features some of the worst special effects in history, hippies getiing shredded, and Clint Howard telling gross stories to people in a diner.) Super Mario Bros. (I don't care what anybody says: Dennis Hopper as Koopa=awesome.)

    11.) Genesis-Calling All Stations You think Genesis with Phil Collins as the focus sucks? Well, they suck harder without him believe it or not. Here, the band tries to combine their pop success with their art-rock genius of the 70's. The end result? An over polished, over indulgent, synth heavy (in the bad sense), and horrible songs like "Congo" and "Small Talk." I remember being a teenager, and one of my mom's friends talking about how bad it is, and the Daily Show making fun of it. That's the only good that came out of it. 10.) Butthole Surfers-The Weird Revolution I love the Butthole Surfers. There 80's albums are the most disturbing Psychedelic Rock albums ever recorded. This 2001 however, almost makes you forget those great moments. Filled with generic Beck soundalikes, bland industrial rock/trip hop mixes, none of the awesome guitar work of Leary, and a song produced by Kid Rock of all people. (So for those who were wondering were Kid Rock was in this countdown, here you go.) 09.) The Clash-Cut the Crap Crap indeed. After Mick Jones left the Clash, Joe Strummer (may he R.I.P.) tried to do an album that sounded like old punk-quick and to the point. The album itself doesn't cut it (pun intened), as it sounds like a bad parody of punk. It also sounds formullaic, boring, and lyrically horrendous. This was the last Clash album also, though Strummer went to do much better things.

    14-12

    Judas Priest-Turbo 14.) Judas Priest-Turbo Priest try 80's pop metal. As you'd expect, it goes wrong. "Turbo Lover" is pretty embarrising (and their gayest song ever-yes, even gayer than "Ram it Down"), and the album ends up sounding like Poison recording a Judas Priest tribute album instead of a Judas Priest album. It's also another album trying to keep up with then modern trends (in this case, pop metal) and sounds incredibly dated, from the synth guitar to corny attempts at anthems. 13.) Van Halen-Van Halen III Remember when Gary Cherone from Extreme was the frontman for Van Halen? If you do, then I'm sorry that I had to bring that up. Everything from the generic 90's album cover, poor attempts at political commentary (Yeah Eddie, you stick it to the man!), songs that sound too much like redo's of past Van Halen songs, a bland rhythm section, and worst of all, generic guitar riffs from Eddie-yes, you read that right-is horrible. This was also the last studio album from Van Halen, and not the best way to go. 12.) Depeche Mode-Songs of Faith and Devotion Live In spite what some will tell you, Songs of Faith and Devotion is a pretty good album. It's not their best one, and there are a few clunkers ("Get Right With Me" and "One Caress"), but it's still good. The follow up release six months later, is basically a live version of that album. It's a pretty bad album, with Dave Gahan sounding ragged and uninterested, to the failed attempts at giving the songs some extra muscle, to the bland live instrumentation, the whole album is a clunker. At least they followed it up with Ultra, which is their most underrated album. This is still pretty bad, and the worst album they rever recorded.
