Nitzer Ebb - Join the Chant



Oh, why not?

To make up for angering you with that Pearl Jam/Motorhead comparison (not really a comparison, but could easily be mistaken for one. ANYWAY...)

Pearl Jam - Mind Your Manners and Pass Me the Motorhead Greatest Hits Eddie, Would'ja?



I swear, when I first heard this last week it came on the radio in the background and just based on the guitar and snare drum I thought it was Motorhead. Then the chorus has a little bit of a 'State of Love and Trust' thing going on. I respect the hell out of this band, but haven't cared about anything they've done in SOOOOO long. Ten's a classic, Vs. has a handful of great songs on it (Go, Animal, WMA) and Vitalogy has Satan's Bed. After that... well, Matt Cameron joining made me a little interested but not enough to actually get to know anything. This album will probably be the same thing - I'll ignore it. Maybe not, but probably. However, right now I think this song deserves chronicling. It's not great, but it's interesting just for the sake of the above-mentioned confusion.

The Walking Dead Season 4 Trailer



Fresh from Comic con (no I'm not there - I never go). It looks like the show may finally be coming into its own with this next season. I know that's hard to say from a trailer, especially one for an entire season of a tv show, so maybe its wishful thinking. Or maybe its just something different about the tone. All I know is for every episode of AMC's The Walking Dead I've liked so far there's been about a corresponding three I didn't like. The book is still my #1, so we'll see...

Siouxsie and the Banshees - Cities in Dust

This song just became very important to me. More on this later.

Evil Dead - First 10 Minutes courtesy of bloody disgusting

I cannot wait to own this. Thanks to the almighty Bloody Disgusting for posting this. I don't care what anybody has to say about this, I LOVED it. And, as my friend Ray pointed out, the fact that THE car is sitting at the cabin, already there when our new characters arrive, well, that means it's cannon. Now granted THE car gets transported into the past at the end of Evil Dead 2 doesn't really argue convincingly to me, granted that Raimi re-writes the specifics of each movie as he goes.
