OMFG!!! FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best of '06 - Movies

So like wut, a month after and halfish after the new year, I've finally decided to do a best of 06 list for Music and Movies. Lets start with All the Movies:
1. Little Miss Sunshine
This was by far my favourite movie of the year for several reasons; One, It had the fucked up family theme which I seem to have a thing for (Six Feet Under etc...), it was dark, it was funny, it was well acted and well scripted. Yet through the darkness and the sadness of the family you couldnt help but to laugh. It was sad at parts, and helerious at other parts. Its just perfect. For me, this movie is up there with Gardenstate.

2. Borat
I barely ever watch comedies, because they usually are so predictable, cheap, lame and horrible in general that make me wanna vomit instead of laugh. But Borat... man I freaking laughed... I did feel like vomitting at some parts too, but it was a good vomitting feeling. If you havent seen it, go watch it already!!! I can honestly say that its one of my favourite comedy movies ever.

3. Science of Sleep
I dont know how else I can say it, but quite simply Michelle Gondry is just pure jeneous. This movie is perfection to the maximum!! Its an awesome script, with amazing visuals, and then add my lovely Charlotte Gainsburg and its just... PERFECT!!

4. Marie Antoinette
I dont care what all of you say about this movie, I thought it was brilliant. Maybe not the best script, and I'm not really a big fan of Cristen Dunst, but every shot of this movie was like a painting. Its a visual masterpiece. Also the music, the weird new wave/dance music from 80's/90's somehow really worked with the whole movie. I LOVE IT!!!

An Ode to Madge


I've gone through several Madge phases through the past few years I must admit. I'm ashamed to say it, but It all started with what I consider to be a not so great album/overrated album, which would be "Confessions on a Dancefloor". In my opinion, she's done some shit albums and put out a few great ones. Ray of Light, Like A Prayer, and my most favorite Music are untouchables. I mean, they are not perfect... But they are amazingly great. Madonna is not a great songwriter, she's no intellectual. Her lyric writing abilities are average... In other words she's no Bono, But I think what she lacks in lyrics she makes up in other ways.
Before Confessions, I have to admit that I was too young/close minded to give Madonna a try. But I remember, just before Confessions I had gone through a majorly depressing huge phase with Nine Inch Nails, and I was ready to listen to something that was not depressing and Madonna's new album which was spinnin' non stop everywhere you went at the time was probably the first thing that caught my attention. Also at the time, My fitness obsession kicked in, and I needed music to work out to. So Confessions was the perfect choice.
So at one time, when I was bored, I was admiring this picture of Madonna, and ended up drawing a big copy of it, which might I add turned out pretty well and ended up in my portfolio for Art school. I really love Madonna's Ray of light Image, both the photography and the look, it really suited her. Now however, her whole confessions look with the freaking legs out is whacked out! I really wish she'd cover them for her next album :P.
Any who, In light of recent events, Madonna's releasing yet another (second one in a matter of a year) live CD/DVD set, out this Tuesday (Monday). This one is not a documentary, its actual concert footage, which should be pretty good. Actually I've heard and Seen it and its actually pretty good. I love the fact that Stuart Price remake/mixes all her old songs for her new tours and they sound so much better to me, hehe... So do I think its buy worthy? Well I know I'll probably end up buying the DVD if not both CD/DVD. I have a thing for music DVD's, specially the ones that make me move, cuz I can pop em in when I work out :P. So Yeah Go buy it, and oh yeah, these 2 songs are really good intellectual(BAHAHA!!) madge songs which I really love and should definitely be checked out, neither are on her new tour CD.
DL: Madonna - Has To Be (B-side from the Ray of light era, Highly recomanded)
DL: Madonna - Paradise (Not for Me) (one of my all time favs, REALLY highly recomanded)

...>>>

Sorry for the lack of postings... I've been really busy lately, I've been working for all week pretty much and finally my artistic dry period is over and for some reason I've been flooded with ideas, so I've been working hard. But her are the highlights of the week anyways:
*Killers premiered their new video, the preview looked way more exciting than the real thing, and Brandon looks like hes about to die in the video
*XO London had a very nice posting about Deborah Harry and her solo career and he posted 4 songs from her solo album KooKoo which are really worth checking out.
*We are all doomed, that is we are if this guy (click on the link) ends up having a successful career. This world is over, if he can really have hits on the charts...
* I finally gave the Lilly Allen CD another try, and I loved it... She reminds me of a young Tori Amos,... But lately any woman singer I hear sounds like Tori to me, so maybe its just me... But those lyrics man, she totally reminds me of Tori. Watch Smile
*kelis' new album, sounded disappointing at first, but now I LOVE it. Its pretty much as good as Tasty, and I actually really thought that she is going to screw up on this album, but nope, its very good.
* Madonna got in trouble in Germany. While she was fighting with the police on her crucifying scene on stage, she didn't have time for soundcheck so the crowd walked in to makeup less Madonna. On sound check... And Madonna asked them politely to be quite, LOL right! Read the whole story here.
*Finally, Paris Hilton's new album is not half as bad as I thought. Highlights for me are: Screwed, D'ya Think I'm Sexy
all for now :D

The Killers have made an epic video!!!


and heres the preview

Punk Music

On one of the lengthy conversations Me and Komi were having during midnight on MSN, she told me that she hates Punk Music. She said she believes that it is waste of time listening to punk music when all the artist does is scream. That got me thinking, how many people categorize punk by the music of the Mainstream punk bands of now, bands that only sing of sorrow and sadness that teenage little girl only connect to, like simple plan. Which got me thinking how sad the punk music scene has become that when we think punk, bands like simple plan or My Chemical Romance comes to mind. Personally I don't even consider simple Plan punk, to me they are cheesy teenage drama music. My Chemical Romance I have to admit, I like, but I don't consider their music punk. Their More of an emo/Pop band. So on this post, I will give you my definition of Punk music, of what I consider to be real punk rock artists.

1. Siouxsie and the Banshees: Many don't consider Siouxsie and the Banshees a Punk band. They are categorized more as a Goth band, and I do agree with that. However, They did release in my opinion one of the most influential punk albums, "The Scream". Sure later on in their career, Siouxsie found commercial success with songs like "Kiss Them For Me", and like most punk bands settled for a more pop sound, but "The Scream" still remains a flawless punk album in my opinion, so:
DL: Siouxsie and the Banshees - Carcass

2. The Clash: How cliche to include The Clash on my list Huh? Well, first, I love the Clash! They are amazing, and the whole raggae Punk thing really works for me. So:
DL: The Clash - Guns of Brixton

3. Dead Kennedys: Another band that I enjoy listening to every once in a while. Dead Kennedys, up to this day remain one of the most influential Punk bands ever. And their soo good!
DL: Dead Kennedys - Too Drunk To Fuck

4. Patti Smith: Probably my favourite artist out of the bunch, this Punk poet changed the way we listen to punk. With one of the best rated albums of the past century "Horses", Patti Smith changed the face of punk music forever. She later went on to make music in the general rock category but to this day, her most influential work remains to be "Horses".
DL: Patti Smith - Rock & Roll Nigger

5. Richard Hell & the Viodoids: Richard Hell was one of the first bands to emerge out of the 1970's New York punk scene. His music to me has a very care free sound to it, and makes me happy to listen to.
DL: Richard Hell & the Voidoids - Liars Beware

6. Sex Pistols: The most influential and famous punk band ever, I just had to include them.
DL: Sex Pistols - God Save The Queen

Yeah Yeah Yeahs: The last one of the bunch. With all the mentioned artist above being from 1970's, which in my opinion is when the best punk music was made, I felt the need to include one of the new Punk artists of our time. I personally don't listen to any new punk music, because the popular ones are really bad, and for some reason I've never came across an underground punk band that I like. YYY's are really not a punk band, Specially with their new album, but their last album "Fever to Tell" had a very punk sound to it, so I decided to include them on the list.
DL: Yeah Yeah Yeah's - Date With A Night

Goldfrapp News


It seems like Goldfrapp have not given up on the North American market just yet. Their song can be heard on literally ALOT of comercials lately, including: Ooh La La on a commercial for Diet Coke, Fly Me Away on Feria Hair dye, and Number 1 is on a promotion clip for Laguna Beach season 3. Also the band is set to release a remix album titled "We Are Glitter", due out October 17th. The remix album includes the remixers such as DFA, Flaming Lips, Benny Benassi, Ewan Pearson, François K, Alan Braxe & Fred Falke and many more. Maybe Goldfrapp can have a nice sales overseas afterall. Anyways, I was looking through my Goldfrapp songs on my Comp and I found this that Some of You might Find interesting
DL: Strict Machine [We Are Glitter Mix] - Goldfrapp

Robbie Williams - Rudebox


I've never been a fan of Robbie Williams. I've actually found him quite gross, but I've always respected him as a singer who has made a name for himself over the years. Rudebox, is the latest single from Robbie Williams from his upcoming album which is suppose to be "his Most experimental album up to date". Watching this video for the fist time, the only thing I could do was laugh! And it wasn't because it was funny, it was pity laughing. This video looks like a bad parody done by Ali G(the guy who hosted the MTV Europe awards last year and half his jokes were not funny). This is the product of Robbie Williams, trying to boost up his already sinking career by rapping! Its like wearing an outfit that is clearly not made for you and does not fit you. In the end, all I can say is, Poor Robbie's career... Watch the video though, its a good laugh...
