HA HA Buy This!

I usually do not support local artists. I prefer to spend my money on bland, unoffensive art that I can but at Bed Bath and Beyond, but for this guy, I might make an exception. You go Christopher Lee.

wild...ripoffs?


Heard a song about a month ago on the radio I couldn't place it but had heard it before, the DJ said it was Arcade Fire's Wake up from the movie Where the wild things are. I thought, "why are they playing a song from a movie that came out years ago and didn't Eddie Vedder do the whole soundtrack to that movie?". Well I was thinking of another movie with a similar name called Into the Wild , but it got me to thinking of how similar the story lines to both movies are. I haven't seen either movie and haven't read that Jon Krakauer book and may have read Where the wild things are when i was a kid but i sure as hell don't remember it but as much as i can piece together without reading or seeing the movie the only differce in story line is instead of dumb monsters you get Vince Vaughn and a piece of cake instead of wild potato root. Not only are the movies similar but the aforementioned song by arcade fire

has a very similar guitar riff to the QOTSA regular john song, but the biggest rip off has to be Green Day ripping off the guitar solo to 21 guns from Full house.

Whats my point and how does Kimmie Gibbler fit into all this? Well, I know that I will not see any of those movies unless its the late night movie on SuperCine. Decisión crítica was the dubbed movie of the nite last nite, nothing but quality.

New Deftones Song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's been quite awhile since we've heard anything new from the Deftones. Word is that they scrapped the album they were working on before their bass player got into a car accident. However they are working on another album with former Quicksand bassist Sergio Vega filling in. I'm guessing this song "Rocket Skates" is from that as yet untitled album, but who knows. Haven't heard anything about a release date either. The band have been playing some shows, opening for Slipknot (including one here in San Jose that i couldn't go to).
As for the song, I think it's kinda cool. Obviously this isn't the best quality, but it's got a cool sound to it.

New Converge Video...Make A Me A Dizzy!

So i went to Best Buy today and picked up the new Converge album Axe To Fall, and to no one's surprise, it's amazing! Actually i wasn't too surprised because it leaked a few weeks ago so i heard it early. Still, i paid my money for it because, well, these guys deserve it.
And the point of all of this is...? Nothing, except the fact that their new video for the title track is insane. Like, hopefully you haven't had too much to drink when you watch it, cause you may yak all over your computer. So after that great endorsement, give it a looksie, OK?
