While I liked the Abandoned, I think "Gravedancers" and "Reincarnation" were the best ones. I'm seeing one of the new ones ("Mullberry Street") tomorrow.

Speaking of horror, is anybody going to/already been to the 8 Films to Die For thing yet? I'm supposed to see one of them on Wednesday. P2 looked like crap anyway.

I found the Larry King skit to be really bad. Other than that, not a bad show.

Holy shit, I did not see that happening. Lions for Lambs did better than I thought it would, though it does look pretty bad.

Heel Turn and Carlito Brigante's Baby. This thread delivers.

10) Throbbing Gristle's First Gig Believe it or not, the first industrial group was not NiN or KMFDM or Ministry or any of those groups. It was Throbbing Gristle, who from 1975-81, made an abrasive noise that would shape what would come, as well as shocking more than a few people. The groups first gig, featured all of their trademarks-ear-raping tape and synth noises, abrasive guitar playing, over the top shock-value lyrics, and other such things. Instead of playing in a club like most punk and proto punk bands, the groups first gig was at an art gallery, and was an "exhibit" called Prostitute. Among the music, it also had photos from a pornographic magazine that member Cosey Fanni Tutti posed for, as well as Nazi and concentration camp photos, soiled diapers, mutilation, and front man Genesis P-Orridge mounting a pile of used tampons. The press was shocked (of course), referred to the band as "sick people" and "wreckers of civilization". The band released three studio albums, then broke up in 1981. Genesis formed Psychic TV (and is now a transexual), Cosey and husband (and fellow band member) Chris Carter formed Chris and Cosey (who went on to be a huge influence on everything from synth pop to Industrial Dance Music to Detroit Techno), and Peter Christopherson briefly was a member of Psychic TV, until he and John Balance left and formed Coil. The band have reunited, but nothing they do today will be the equal of their past. 09.) Elvis orders a Sandwich. Elvis in 1976 was not a pretty sight, as he had become a fat, bloated parody of himself. On February night, he and some pals got in a discussion about one of The King's favorite sandwiches-The Fool's Gold Leaf. The sandwich consists of a single loaf of hollowed out, warmed bread, one jar of peanut butter, one jar of jelly, and a pound of bacon. The result is slathered with butter and then baked. That sure does sound healthy, don't it? Thing is, the sandwich is only made in Denver, Colorado. Elvis wanthed one though, so he and co. went to Colorado Mine Company, which was the only restaurant that served it. Thing is, they flew in a jet from Memphis to Denver so Elvis and pals could have the sandwich. Elvis bought 22 loaves for the guys, and invited the pilots of the plane to join them.

Yeah, it's 12 moments instead of 10 now. Let's get this started. 12.) Luther Campbell gets a blowjob on Stage Back in the old school days of hip hop (when else?) 2 Live Crew were pretty controversial. One night in a concert in Japan, Luther Campbell (I think it was him at least) shouts out "Give Me a Blowjob!" The rest, as they say, is history, as a group of girls were more than willing to do so. Honorable mention: Suge Knight and Tupac beat up a guy, and make him drink Pac's piss. 11.) Screamin' Jay Hawkins: Father to 57 Children. Hawkins (mostly known for the song "I Put a Spell On You", claimed to be father of many illegitimate children. So, was he? Well, at least 12 of them showed up for a reunion, though he claimed without much exaggeration or joking that he was father to 57 kids. That is...something else. That's a lot of bastards.

Gary Floyd replied to AboveAverage484's topic in Music
no need to justify veruca salt, they were worlds better than STP. no pretensions about being important or anything. just catchy, catchy shit. i'll pick 'american thighs' three times over 'purple' any day. They did do a pretty good cover of Depeche Mode's "Somebody", though the original is one of my least favorite DM songs. -
