News:

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

AFK

Cynicism is a blank check for failure.

East Coast Hustle

first band I really got into: Def Leppard (but Appetite For Destruction was the single most important album ever)

favorite band overall: That's almost impossible. I can probably narrow it down to Therapy?, KMFDM, and OutKast

current obsession: La Coka Nostra (Everlast and Ill bill in the same group. I kid you not.)
Rabid Colostomy Hole Jammer of the Coming Apocalypse™

The Devil is in the details; God is in the nuance.


Some yahoo yelled at me, saying 'GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH', and I thought, "I'm feeling generous today.  Why not BOTH?"

Xooxe

The Offspring when I was 14. I grew up with little exposure to music.

Probably Aphex Twin. I went nuts over it.

I'm on a quest to look for brass or bowed bass with a chugging growl. Either orchestral or tango.

1) The first band/musician you got into.
2) Overall favorite band/musician of all time
3) The newest or most recent band/musician you got into. (should be a new-ish band, not an old/established artist you just discovered.)

1) Robbie Williams. Lol. Properly 'got into', though? System of a Down.
2) Um. Difficult. Gogol Bordello, today.
3) Circus Contraption (Though I started listening to them a year ago and have had momentary obsessions with bands since, I'd still put them here.)
