If my roommate did this, I would probably kill them. I hope he gets his albums back.
And no-one turns into something…inhuman.
Nick Cave To Write New Crow Movie…

What sucks? MOVIE REMAKES!
What rules? NICK CAVE!
So, finding out that 18 foot tall Australian master of jangly post goth awesome is penning a new version of The Crow is somewhat confusing. On the one hand, do we really need another version of The Crow? Alright, it’s a decent enough movie, but then it did spawn the horrible habit of lanky, spotty, goth boys dressing in duct tape every halloween. And remakes are genetically predisposed to be horrible bags of toss.
But then, Nick Cave is writing it. And Nick Cave is known for not sucking at anything. The Proposition was a pretty cool movie. Both his books do that dirty southern gothic thing with the subtly that few can manage. And all his music projects have ruled.
The combination of Cave and Crow would also cause a goth critical mass that would suck anyone wearing an ankh into a very, very black hole. Which would be funny.
Danzig Discovers The Danzig / Rollins Slash Fic Comic

A while ago we reported on the fact that someone had created a Roillins / Danzig slash fiction comic imagining a world where the two icons of awesome lived together as very special friends. Rollins saw it and thought it was funny. Thanks to Decibel magazine, Danzig has seen it too.
Well, kinda. He knows it exists but didn’t want to see it.
And in a quite brilliant turn of events, the dude who created the comic in the first place turned Danzig’s reaction into another comic. Read the whole thing here.

Hotel St. George Make A Badass Video.

Occasionally I get sent mail from bands who want me to review their stuff, or embed their video or say nice things about them for some reason. I don’t often do it because on the whole, they are depressingly boring.
But yesterday I got an email that contained this…
We made the video ourselves and it’s basically a battle between a robot and a wizard (homemade costumes). In the video there are fireballs, russian roulette, sword fights, massages, a dog with a cape, breakfast etc…..
It’s actually pretty badass!
And I knew I was onto a winner. I love the fact that they follow ‘a dog with a cape, breakfast’ with ‘etc’ – Yeah, that’s right you know, dogs with capes, early morning meals, the usual, you can sort of guess what’s next… Brilliant.
This came from a genuinely delightful indie pop band Hotel St. George
I checked out the video. It did indeed include all the aforementioned stuff and defiantly rates as ‘badass’ The video reminds me of staying up til 3AM watching videos on MTV2 to try and find something new to impress my friends with.
Which is good.
