I mighrt see it if I ever have time. Also, I heard that Simon Peg is in it.
-
I would love to hear some examples of Zazh de la Rocha being a toolbag. Also, a band much more annoying than RATM was would have to be Consolidated. I hate that band so fucking much.

I don't know man, not much can get worse than Thrice live. They are brutal on the ears. You mean there are people who actually like Thrice?

Well as I promised, here's the start of my countdown of the most pretentious bands and albums of all time, according to me. Let's get this show on the road. Consolidated-Here's a doozy, a preachy hip-hop/industrial "marxist" band of pro vegan, anti-capitalist jackoffs who pretty much are the epitomy of preachy, and make Rage Against the Machine look like The Osmonds. The real kicker for the group is their love of the book The Sexual Politics of Meat, a book that pretty much says that if you eat meat, then you hate women and want to rape them. Of course, the band took this to heart, as most of their songs tell you that anyone who eats meat is a rapist. Oh, and if you don't agree with them on their bullshit theories, then you are a fascist (they accuse just about everyone they disagree with fascists) who hates women and is homophobic. Oh, and read the lyrics to the song "Tool and Die", which are so preachy, they would make Lars Van Trier cringe. Basically, what I'm trying to say is this: There is nothing sadder than hearing obnoxious white dudes rapping about how bad black people have it. Yeah, like they really know anything about the struggles minorities go through in this country. It's practically a fucking minstrel show. I do get some satisfaction though, in the fact that their anti-meat/"feminist" songs are being played at fetish clubs where women are willingly tied up and whipped today. That's irony for ya. Kiss-Music For The Elder-From what I've heard, even the band themselves are embarrassed of this disaster. I still find it hard to believe that fucking Kiss, probably one of the least pretentious bands of all time, recorded this bloated piece of shit. Just listen to the songs like "The Oddyssey" and "I", and you'll wonder "what the fuck were they thinking". Also, to this day, I still don't know what the fuck the album is about. Could somebody please tell me what the albums concept is? Burzum-I've mentioned in the past that I hate Burzum, as I've metioned it many a time on this thread. Read all about why I think that Burzum is one of the lamest and most pretentious projects in music history on that thread. Oh, and don't bother responding to Thumbtack, asd he seems to be in a permanent bad mood over there, and I quit arguing with him last week. Neil Young-Trans-When artists try experimenting with different styles of music, it's a slippery road. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. This album is a perfect example of what happens when it doesn't work. Now I love Neil Young, but damnit, this album is a pretentious mess. Basically, Young decided to experiment with synthesizers and vocorders, and made this album. It's no wonder why it's hard to find in the U.S., except for Imports and on ebay, as it's a bloated disaster, and a real headscratcher as well. This album has split Young fans, with some thinking it's his most daring work. Well, daring doesn't always mean good, if you ask me. That's all for today. The list continues next time

You know...ah, forget it. Arguing with you is pointless. Guys, I wouldn't bother, as he's obviously just wanting attention. Anyways, I always was annoyed by Rage Against The Machine and their fans.

You chose a child molester's jam!

-How's it going folks? Not a whole lot going on around here (as usual). Last night though, I couldn't sleep, because there were these obnoxious kids outside at 2:30 in the morning playing with their super soakers and generally making such a racket, I could hear them through my ear plugs. Christ I hate College Freshmen. -Last night's "South Park" was a major improvement over the previous two episodes. The "Altered States" reference was a great touch (to Family Guy: Quit Refrencing Lucas/Spielberg movies and 80's Pulp Culture, and start referencing obscure cult movies. Then I might watch you again) and the ending made great use of the theme from "The Omen". Also, it pretty much shows viewers once again how dispicable Cartman is. -Watched "Wolf Creek" and "Event Horizon" last night. Both get 8/10 from me. I'm not getting any more DVD's until "Cemetary Man" hits DVD this June. -Finally, I'm going to start a countdown to who I think are the most pretentious bands of all time, as well as the most pretentious albums. Anybody have any suggestions? That's all. The countdown starts tomorrow.

Ghostface Killah-K.I.L.O.

Why thank you
-
This week's episode was actually pretty good. Oh, and there was an awesome reference to the movie "Altered States"
-
She still doesn't acknowledge my existence, which is disappointing.
-
Aphex Twin's I Care Because You Do, Ambient Works 85-92, Ambient Works II, Analogue Bubblebath III, and the Analord series are great. Also, try the Orb, some Portishead, some Mick Harris solo projects (Scorn, Lull), Pink Floyd's Echoes and Obscured by Clouds, Brian Eno's ambient work, Cabaret Voltaire's 90's techno albums, and Tangerine Dream. Great homework music there.

Wolf Creek Unrated Edition Event Horizon 2 disc special edition

She still loves Henley and Gabriel, so not everything she likes is good, though I don't have a problem with her love of Peter Gabriel.
-
You're mom has fucking awesome taste in music.
-
My mom actually likes Interpol and Radiohead. She doesn't like Zeppelin though, which causes her to lose points. She also doesn't like Emerson, Lake, and Palmer, which helps her gain points.
-
I just cracked up when I saw that Hogan Hotline Thing. Great picture.

Today's entry brought to you Zapp and Roger. Don't leave home without it! -Anyways, I'm sure that a lot of people here bought the new Tool album that came out today. It did come out today, didn't it? Just wondering. Anywho, personally, I'm not too interested. Sure, I would have been interested in this back when I was a teenager, but when I turned 21, I finally grew a bit tired of Tool. I don't know wy, but I just did. I'll still have to hear it blaring from speakers in my college, but I will admit, I'd rather hear Tool than that Keisha Cole song "Love". I have to hear that song every fucking day, and I'm sick of it. At least I have Current 93's new album to look forward to later this month. You Tool fans think that five years is a long wait? Try waiting 10 years since David Tibet and co. have released an album of new material. -I actually enjoyed Raw last night. Not every part of it, but I thought it was good. Highlight of the show was the worked shoot from Joey Styles. Check it out here. Also good was the Kane vs. Conway match, simply for the fact that they made this whole "May 19th" angle a litte enjoyable, or at least for five minutes. Oh, and I still love the Spirit Squad.

Kevin Spacey yelling out wrong is going to become a YTMND fad in the future. You just know it. Hell, it might even become the next "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
-
I have to admit: I actually enjoyed Raw tonight. First time I enjoyed Raw in a long time. Granted, I didn't like everything, but I thought it was a suprisingly good show.
-
That was awesome. Joey, you just made this the best Raw in ages all thanks to one segment. You think Vince's ego would allow that?
