Kevin Smith's black and white masterpeice.  I love this film.  Its so well done, so funny, so clever.  Smith is a genius.

Anyone else agree or have a different point of view to share?

Such a cool band from what I've heard so far!  "Now that I Miss Her" is a great song, I love the music and the guy's voice is lovely!  This band makes me reminiscent of the Cure!  I really like it, anyone else heard of them?

I have only heard a few songs from them, but the industrial rock power of it is fantastic, and then when they include electronic elements, it just plain kicks ass!  Anyone have any suggestions of good songs I should check out?  I really dig what I have heard so far.  They also look like a band that would be awesome to see live, judging by the mindblowing performance shown in the opening of Triple X.

Just bought ...OUT COME THE WOLVES.  Great album from what I've heard, like the songs that I've gotten of them in the past.  Good band, I like their style.  Some songs are kind of Ska-ish, even though they don't incorperate Ska instruments, songs like "Ruby Soho" and "Time Bomb"  just make me think Ska, I dunno...

Who else likes this band?

Just has to be my favorite movie of all time! Okay, maybe I won't go that far because there are too many great movies, but it is DEFINETLY up there!  Its so sweet and Edward is such a fantastic character!  I love the subtle humor and the undeniable charm of this film.  Of course, Burton is a genius.  Anyone else like this movie?

Other Musicians / Tiger Army?

Anyone heard of them?  Good Psychobillly band.  Psychobilly is a fusion of Rockabilly and Punk.  Good stuff usually involving stand up basses and other sorts of nonconventional yet conventional instruments, sort of like ska.  Anyway, Tiger Army is good.  Nick13's vocals are awesome, a great song is Incorporeal.

Band from Japan that broke up a while back.  Their drummer died...

On a lighter note, even though I don't know what the fuck they are saying, Gackt has an amazing voice to acompany INCREDIBLE melodies.  I mean, damn, one song makes me reminicent of Queen sort of riffs (this song being "Bel Air").

Anyway, I doubt anyone here knows who the hell I'm talking about, so be sure to check them out.  They have a pretty cool variety of their style.  They use interesting instruments in thier band such as a string bass, violin, keyboard (synth), and some sort of strings instrument (a sitar maybe?) that I saw in a video of theirs.  Simply amazing.

You MUST check them out, be sure to check out:
Kyomu No Chuu De No Yuugi Dais
Syunikiss
Transylvania
Regret
Bel Air (as previously mentioned)
Speed of Desperate
Memory and Sky
and anything else you can find!  


You won't regret it, I promise!
